Flashes of 90's X-Men after they shipped production to a tiny Filipino studio. Weird shit.

Ah lawd, not handsome Beast.

Please don't let my wife see this picture

"Beast's head is too big for his body. We either need to make his head smaller, or his body bigger. Y'know what? Let's play it safe and do both."

I don't remember, but that carebears starship is too damn familiar.

[-] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 57 points 1 month ago

I had no idea these were Canadian

[-] Rocketpoweredgorilla@lemmy.ca 18 points 1 month ago

They aren't, according to the wiki page.

Care Bears are multi-colored bears, painted in 1981 by (American) artist Elena Kucharik to be used on greeting cards from American Greetings.

The animated series, however, was produced by Nelvana, a Canadian animation studio.

Ah that's where the Canadian part comes in. Good catch. "The Care Bears" animated series was American, the later "Care Bear Family" series was Canadian.

The Care Bears Family is a Canadian animated television series produced by Nelvana and C.B.I.S. Productions based on the American franchise of the same name, and is the successor series to the American animated series produced by DIC Entertainment

All the best SciFi comes out of Canada.

[-] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 42 points 1 month ago

I'm gonna tell my kids this was Star Trek The Animated Series

[-] jlow@slrpnk.net 30 points 1 month ago

I think this was pretty popular in Germany

[-] kalapala@sopuli.xyz 11 points 1 month ago

Finland as well. There's a lot of fans.

[-] TherapyGary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 month ago

I wore Braveheart-inspired facepaint for a football game once as a kid when I lived in Germany, except it was yellow instead of blue to match my team color.

Another player asked what/who I was supposed to look like, and I said "Braveheart", but obviously this 11yo girl had not seen Braveheart- the only Brave Heart she knew was from the Care Bears

I got made fun of a lot that day lol

[-] UnspecificGravity@piefed.social 6 points 1 month ago

It was pretty popular in the US too.

[-] Dagnet@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Somewhat popular in Brazil

[-] saimen@feddit.org 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

What was the german name? Herzbären?

Edit: ah found it. Glücksbärchis

[-] kieron115@startrek.website 3 points 1 month ago

Germany changed the dubbing on TOS to make it more.. comedic? I wonder if they did the same thing with this lol.

Precisely that. First I've heard of it, and now I must, uh, research my heritage.

[-] sundray@lemmus.org 18 points 1 month ago

No way, I just recently watched an Allison Pregler video about that! (Invidious)

What a wild ride!

I keep discovering things from the 80s kid me would have loved but I never knew existed until my late 40s.

[-] DaedalousIlios@pawb.social 3 points 1 month ago

There's nothing wrong with letting your inner child enjoy it!

[-] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 17 points 1 month ago

I'm not subbed to this community but you guys always have the best posts lol

It fills me with the same sort of glee as whenever an Ich_iel post hits the front page

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

The Trekkies on here are a great group for sure.

join us...

[-] Geobloke@aussie.zone 5 points 1 month ago

There is way too much lore to catch up on...

[-] usernamefactory@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 month ago

Fuck the lore. Half the hardcore fans who know all the lore just use it to bitch about inconsistencies. Dive in wherever you like and everything you need to know will be exposited to you by a convenient captain’s log or an over loquacious android.

[-] Dearth@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Watch a couple of the original cast movies, maybe stream TNG while you're doing chores and before you know it your one of us

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

All I had to do was force feed my wife a couple SMW episodes and she said "oh! It's a melodrama with costumes and lasers, and occasionally they have courtroom episodes where they ignore procedure and monolog and whoever gets the last one wins" and she loves it now

[-] MadMadBunny@lemmy.ca 17 points 1 month ago

That wasn’t a Mandela effect!?!?

[-] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 month ago

It's like one of the later seasons of The Smufs where they got stuck in a Quantum Leap type situation where they traveled through time or some shit. They were low on ideas after a while.

[-] marlowe221@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

I was a kid in this era, saw some of these episodes, and thought nothing of it.

After all, the Muppet Babies were doing Star Wars….

[-] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago
[-] Thebeardedsinglemalt@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

AND an intro where they're waking up from a nap but it's interspliced with the scene from Aliens where the Colonial Marines are waking up from hyper sleep on the Sulaco

[-] Thebeardedsinglemalt@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

Say what you want, but I liked the Bobby's World parody. The only thing I remember about it was he was the captain of the Boobyprise

[-] Infynis@midwest.social 10 points 1 month ago

A Canadian cartoon about caring bears for kids sounds like exactly the kind of thing that would exist in the Federation. It would just be on the Holodeck

[-] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Seven of Nine could have some damn peace and quiet in astrometrics

[-] infinitesunrise@slrpnk.net 8 points 1 month ago

Damn when I was a kid I always thought it was a spin-off series.

[-] Luci@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 month ago

Low budget??? They paid my buddy Gord a two-fer and a sandwich for each episodes I’ll tell you that!

[-] notabot@piefed.social 8 points 1 month ago

Unfortunately the Care Bears didn't think to take a barber with them on their interstellar voyage, and as a consequence their coats got pretty long. You can catch up with what happened to them in TOS S02E15.

[-] tiramichu@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 month ago

What? I gotta watch this!

[-] AmazingSUPERG@thelemmy.club 6 points 1 month ago

Mr. Grumpy!

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Pigs in Space is Conan too this is my position

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
