-I nominated Mr. Wizard near the top of my picks, so it's obvious who I'll go for there.

-Land of the Lost fuckin' rocked.

-I'm actually gonna have trouble with the TMNT/Garfield one. I loved the first iteration of TMNT, but couldn't give Splinter's ass about the others. And Garfield & Friends was some funny, funny shit.

-Underdog, baby. Underdog.

[National Champion Chris Cole]

I'll agree about only caring about the first TMNT but I loved it so damn much that might be enough for me. Too badd Garfield drew such a tough draw. I did like that show as well.

[Loki]

Base it on the the theme songs, then. 1987 TMNT theme song is pure awesome 80s cheese. Much better than the Garfield and Friends theme song.

Excpet for the point at which someone says "I'm scared!" in the Garfield song. That's so weird it has to be noted.

I probably should've posted this link sooner, but if anybody needs to see old eps of any of the shows we're talking about, here's a good link:

Man - this round has a lot of my stuff in it:

I was the only one who nominated HR Pufnstuf, Shazam/Isis Power Hour, and Underdog, and 1 of 2 who nominated Land of the Lost....

Read the wiki on HR Pufnstuf if you're not familiar with it. Read it in entirety. Everything in there should make you vote for it. And Mr. Wizard - it doesn't even have it's own wiki. The show's creator got one, but the show itself couldn't earn itself a wiki... HR Pufnstuf all the way.

Shazam/Isis was my first introduction to the DC Shazam character. The show was totally cheesy, but it entertained my Saturday mornings as a grade schoolers. HOWEVER, Land of the Lost rocks and therefore MUST WIN.

And Underdog.....rock on. Although it's going up against something the comic book crowd probably adores. I hope not. "There's no need to fear. Underdog is here!"

Pufnstuf
Land of the Lost
TMNT
Underdog

Pretty easy choices for me this round.

I love the part where the creators deny there were any intentional drug references. OK, I can buy that, but don't even try to tell me you weren't high when you wrote it!

Only 17 episodes. And it was so popular it aired for FIVE YEARS. Damn. That must've been one helluva show.

This is teh winning slate. Go UnderPufnLostTurtles!

[Lucky]

I don't think I've ever seen Underdog. I mean I KNOW Underdog but I don't think I actually ever watched it. So that's a tough one.

Once again I have absolutely no interest in any of the live shows. So right to the tie breaker. As best as I remember there were no women on either Mr Wizard or HR Pufnstuf so looks like I might have to go in another direction there. Not like it will matter. But Land of the Lost had a cave woman, right? And Isis had Isis. 70s babe doesn't usually work for me and since both were gone by the time I was caring neither was a crush. I'll have to go google searching.

[salmonjunkie]

Mr. Wizard had a creepy old man teaching dorky kids science in his little house. NOt as creepy as Mr. Rogers, but still pedo-tastic. That's why I'm voting Mr. Wizard.

[Chris Eco]

Man...I nominated both Gargoyles and Underdog. But Gargoyles was just a show I liked, while Underdog MATTERED to me growing up. I waited every single week for that show to come on, just to see the plot inch forward. I'd wait MONTHS for a story to end. It was AWESOME.

Then I grew out of it. Unlike you LOST and Heroes people.
