I am twenty five, and apparently I still get a little excited when I hear the Captain Planet theme song. The show might have been hokey, but in light of the current environmental crisis, let's give credit where it's due: those goofy teenagers called this shit. Nearly twenty years ago, they told us we were screwing this place up.
Whoopi Goldberg, Lou Gosset Junior, Jeff Goldblum, Tim Curry, LeVar Burton, Martin Sheen, Meg Ryan, Sting, and Helen Hunt all tried to tell us, and we didn't listen.
And if all that wasn't progressive enough,this show portrayed God as a black female. Even Kevin Smith wasn't willing to cross both those lines at once.
