Parting is such sweet sorrow. Alison “Miniature Donkey Talk“ Lührs helps us bid farewell to our highly successful Jackie Chan Adventures arc, but not before an exhaustive play-by-play on this weird man’s strategic pie consumption.

After a deep slog through the trash swamp, it’s thrilling to reach dry land with Jackie Chan Adventures. We’re beginning a new arc that’s all Jackie, all the time, as he fights the mob with his dope fictional family.
This week on Saturday Morning Tuesdays:
It’s party time in the Jersey garage • Jade’s precociousness is surprisingly palatable • No mobster wants to kill real, actual Jackie Chan • Chinese Medicine Soup? More like Chinese TALISMAN soup • We’re not big fans of all the statue-shaming about Shendu • You kiss your Wartortle with that mouth?

Here he comes, here comes Speed Racer: the fast drivin’, fast talkin’ ‘60s anime dreamboat. Racing is a sport too, jocks, even if Speed still spends most of his time karate-chopping gangsters and expressing loud gasps.

We had to get a sports anime in the March Madness lineup, so enjoy American Football drama Eyeshield 21, complete with guns and vampire elves. Then we hit the ice with Disney’s Mighty Ducks, which is, of course, about hockey monsters from space.
This week on Saturday Morning Tuesdays:
A hockey team manager returns us to the Disney School of Contract Law • Space Hockey is like regular hockey, but you get to kill for sport • It’s extremely cathartic to see a football team relegated to “anime club” levels on the high school food chain • Austin waggles a pinkie toe into the waters of the Anime Dungeon and likes how it feels • Andy wishes he could BE anime

When it’s March Madness season, there’s only one course of action: vaguely sports-adjacent cartoons! To kick off Round One, we’ve enlisted sports cartoonist Dave “Highway Baby“ Rappoccio for an expert opinion on the dunktastic voyage of 1991’s ProStars (It’s All About Helpin’ Kids).

As punishment from the gods for our hubris, we’re cursed with a second week of ancient Greek nonsense in the form of Class of the Titans (2005) and Mythic Warriors: Guardians of the Legend (1998). Hear us roll the boulder up the hill and maybe this time, fingers crossed, it’ll stay at the top.
This week on Saturday Morning Tuesdays:
Much like the Wet Sagging trend, everything is damp, confusing, and kinda hot • Hercules hates poison • More like Jerkules • The Greek gods use the classic “your kids sure are teen astronauts now” defense • A monster with legs that are two snakes is a real box-checker for us

We’ve made some bad decisions in the past, but they pale in comparison to our choice to watch Ulysses 31 and Spartakus & the Sun Beneath the Sea as an ongoing arc. How much joke potential lies in Greek myth cartoons? Well, accept this free big wood horse as a gift and find out!
This week on Saturday Morning Tuesdays:
We’ve hit a new basement on watchable content and we don’t have an escape plan • Chicken Bone Andy has no mouth and must scream • Uleesees has the rootinest tootinest bangs in the galaxy • Spartakus consistently takes all the fun out of doing drugs • The foppish judges are kinda fun though

Sometimes a show comes along that unites us in our desire to utterly and completely destroy it, and this time it’s 1987’s Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light. Join Merklynn the Centrist Wizard as he foists powers upon the ruling class in return for vague favors. Chaos, naturally, ensues.
This week on Saturday Morning Tuesdays:
Dirty nuts, clean nuts, you know I’ve had my share • No sooner is Merklynn done with his 20 minute explanation of the show than the Spectral Knights immediately disappoint us with their poor judgement • The eternal tale of a man and his trapdoor into our hearts • The power discrepancy between heroes and villains demands a balance patch

Our hunt to catch all the PokéClones continues with the regrettable localization of Cardcaptor Sakura and the deeply problematic “Human Pokémon” of Zatch Bell. The anime dungeon seals are broken, and the Dawn of the Long Boys has begun.
