Summary: A corny idea paired with bad animation...great.
This show...oh, my. How weird is this thing? A bunch of Power Rangeresque children hopping around the globe in their solar-powered UFO armed with elemental rings that call forth some motto-spouting superhero with green hair? Oh, and a constant sermon on how evil and dirty the entire stinkin' world had become and how only the little kids who are watching can save the day. Please.

"Yeah kids, save the environment! The power is yours! Oh, but don't get up from the couch just yet! We have one more episode for ya! So sit back, turn off your brain, and keep watching!"

That's the message I got from this cartoon. Ted Turner thought the whole thing up, dontcha know. Supposedly he wanted to make the scuzzy nation known as the U.S.A. a better place by EDUCATING the young people. Yeah, you know what Ted? If you hate our country so much, then move! Just move, alright? You can't eat our food and take up our space while whininh about how much it sucks here. So just leave and do us all the favor. But I'm getting off the subject.

P.S. I understand fire, earth, wind, water and all that jazz, but what about heart? Did that kid ever use his ring? Maybe I just never caught it...oh, and he had a monkey. What's up with that?

P.P.S. Didn't this show do an episode on AIDS? Okay, so maybe it did some good. But the earth is not THAT polluted, okay Captain?

That show was created so parents would stop bitching about how all TV for kids was shit designed to make them want to kill eachother and buy action figures.
I don't know how to be sexy. If I catch a girl looking at me and our eyes lock, I panic and open mine wider. Then I lick my lips and rub my genitals. And mouth the words "You're dead."

I remember one episode where Niagra Falls got poluted.
It cut to a scene of some waterfall made out of what appeared to be sewage, the waterfall itself being about 5 feet across and the surrounding landscape looking like a south american jungle.

I fucking hated that show, I want my Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles dammit!

My head may be level with your hands. But your groin is level with my teeth!

That show was just so bad I HAD to watch.

However, for true eco-insane programming, NOTHING can beat the Smoggies.

sad thing was that (like a lot of kids' cartoon shows), the villains were actually cooler than the lame-o heroes when they got their pollution rings.

Well yeah.
