Why is this show so damn charming? Something as hamfisted as Captain Planet had no right being so good yet it had plenty of fun episodes.

I also wonder why no one has tried to reboot it considering how many of the messages it preached became rather mainstream.

Ted Turner based the show on his real life adventures.
>>
>>89982280
They also had an episode about overpopulation where Wheeler has too many kids for no reason & things get really dicey on how you're not supposed to have kids or everyone else will starve to death.

>that episode where they unintentionally made Hitler look badass by stopping Captain Planet dead in his tracks just by sheer force of hate alone
It's like they trusted their target demographic, literal children who likely had no idea this character was real, to bare in mind that being OP as hell isn't a good thing if you haven't ascribed to the Planeteer's liberal morality.

Doesn't matter. ANTIFA's parading Steven Universe around as their symbol. Also, Russian Gadget cults.

So is that suppose to be Stalin or Hitler?

Remember that time the show told us that people shouldn't be allowed to breed freely?

Everyone on this site should follow that advice.

If you're on 4chan the odds are it's not going to be much of a problem for you.
>>89985101
I mean, Wheeler was kind of the go-to asshole on the team to begin with.

The last episode I ever watched was the first episode of a two parter involving some sort of super-narcotic. One of the planeteers had spiked another's food with the drug when she wouldn't succumb to peer pressure. I have no idea how it ended.
>>
>>89987511
This is the series for me in a nutshell, there are like 120+ episodes and I can never remember watching any of them no matter how many times I try to pick up the show again
>>
>>89987511
They all became drug addicts.
Series end.
Anyone remember the episode where everyone turned into rat people or some shit? I remember that being weird.

We should play a game.

Its called, "Guess the real Captain Planet episode.". It's real easy, you post two greentext one of a real captain planet episode and one fake episode.
>>
>>89987728
I haven't watched it in so long I can't provide any actual episodes, but I'll happily try to guess.
>>
>>89987558
I remember an episode where Wheeler got stuck on some island of tiny rat people with serious overpopulation problems, pretty novel concern to bring up back in the early 90s when we hadn't even reached 6 billion worldwide yet IT WAS ALL A DREAM or some shit
>>
So basically its about a group of hippies calling on someone else to fix the problem
>>
>>89987889
Population Bomb was published in the 60s. Malthus brought up overpopulation as a concern in the 18th century.

Overpopulation has become less important as an issue because the number of people living in extreme poverty has decreased - in absolute terms - even as population keeps rising.

Why did the villains want to pollute so fucking much?
>>
>>89988371
Because MWAAHAHAHA.

Boomerang was rerunning it like last month. Made me download the whole show. It's actually pretty damn good. Lots of great episodes. Everyone always joked about Ma Ti but Heart was useful as fuck.
That episode where Linka's cousin got her hooked on drugs and then he overdosed was insane. That wasn't something I expected from a show aimed at kids. The aids episode, the overpopulation episodes. The show had a lot of death and adult themes.

The newer art style they went with for the last season made Gi sexy as hell.

>>89985101
Wheeler was already treated as a joke by the others because he was an ass. Linka still wanted that Brooklyn dick though.
>>
>>89989054
>then he overdosed was insane
Oh, so that's what happened.
>>
>>89989054
>Linka still wanted that Brooklyn dick though.
She wanted that Greencard, post soviet russia was a shit hole.

Show had entertaining rogues.

>>89981015
HE'S THE MEGA MCDADDY OF ECOLOGY
>>
>>89987244
I'm pretty sure it was Hitler, considering the historically retarded WWII setting.

But now that you mention it, I wouldn't be surprised if he was meant to actually be an amalgamation of other historic leaders.
>>
>>89981015
>remembered watching an interview with Ted Turner, when asked how would he improve the then-new Cartoon Network Ted replied 'by creating more Captain Planet episodes and having CN show Captain Planet all the time'
Good thing he wasn't in charge of programming...still...
