Having said that, I have seen enough Saturday morning cartoons to appreciate the work that went into this one. It was very well done.<br /><br />I thought the commercials were a great touch. The final one made me laugh.ChrisBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10843864158239536750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-29871556343731666612014-04-05T05:39:49.395-04:002014-04-05T05:39:49.395-04:00I actually remember G.I.

Can't recall what channel they were on, only that it was renamed Action Force because that sounded less American. I even still have some of the action figures buried away somewhere. As Freeman said, this was a spot on parody of the series. I was howling when Cobra Commander gave his eulogy to Destro.

Joe, this episode was pitch perfect, from the commercials (I actually thought they were using one of the commercials from back in the day at first) to the cheesy laughter at the end. I was surprised they got nearly all of the voice actors to do their roles for the episode too. It's a pity Cobra's voice actor has passed.<br /><br />I just want to point out that while there is a G.I. Joe in the comics, in the context of the show, G.I. Joe is a special forces unit, not a person. And the general nickname for for soldiers are "Joes". <br /><br />Funny thing about Annie's outfit, she was basically just wearing the outfit of a prominently featured Joe called Shipwreck. Something that made her humorously suggestive name a sort of double joke.Freemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11265555641080269765noreply@blogger.com
