Re: I didn't realize that Captain Planet was propaganda.
It's a stupid cartoon; it's made for young(er) kids. Doesn't have a bad message though, be good to others / be concious of the enviroment... what's so wrong with that? Capt. Planet does have a mullet though, which is a no-no.
Re: I didn't realize that Captain Planet was propaganda.
You are just now realizing that? Sorry man, but even as a small child, I realized this was tree hugging hero stuff. Not that it is a bad idea to save our environment.
Did you notice the semi-mullet Captian Planet had?

I loved it when I was younger, didn't see anything wrong with it then and don't particularly see anything wrong with it now. Propaganda? Hardly, and if it is then it's not exactly spreading a negative message.

"Our powers combine.... CAPTAIN PLANET!"
I used to watch this alot as a kid.
Oh well, at least we had G.I. Joe as counter-programing.
"And knowing is half the battle.... G.I. JOOOOE!!!"
Time for an off-topic thread about the best old-school cartoons from the late 80's/early 90's.
Ninja Turtles ("Heroes in a half shell, turtle power!")
James Bond Jr. ("James Bond junior chases SCUM, around the world!")
Back to the Future (who remembers that?)
X-men
Batman: The Animated Series
Inspector Gadget ("Go Gadget, go!")
Transformers ("Robots in disguise!")
For me, it went like this: Star Wars to He-Man to G.I Joe to Batman/Ninja Turtles to X-Men. (And there was a brief flirtation with Dick Tracy in there, somewhere) That's pretty much the course of my childhood.
