I remember the show with a kind of love / hate relationship.
Something about everytime someone said "I don't know" they'd get
dumped with slime, some guy named Barf and his burgers which always
had dead domestic pet connotations, and jokes in the lockers...

Remember it... I was haunted by it.
My last name is Shearer, so naturally every goddamn little kiddie
on the playground used to call me Shearer, Princess of Power...
But, I must admit that she DID have great powers and ran around
half-naked with a sword and went out with this musclely warrior
(He-man) from Athenia, I think his planet was called.
so I don't have that much of a complex about it now.
Oh, sorry to keep bringing up old shows but did anyone
notice the similarities between Voltron and the Mighty Morphin Power
Rangers ?
They had the matching colours and eventually combined their animals /
lions to form a man of extraordinarily great strength... ????
"Jem" was a favourite when I was growing up.
And the theme song...
"Jem, J-em is truly outrageous, truly, truly, truly outrageous,
oh-oh-oh Jem, J-em the music's contagious, outrageous,
Jem is my name, nothing will be the same... Jem is my name! ...
We are the Misfits, our songs are better, We are the Misfits, and
we're gonna get her.."
It was about this singer and she changed into her alter-powerful-ego
by touching her earring. She had a computer/friend named "Synergy" (?).
It was great.
Take Care,
Renee.
