When the Mantanas freed them, Captain Bizarrly decided to form a alliance with the Mantanas, as they had common foes and goals. This was done by the Waterians to protect the planet from the crew. They freed the Captain Bizarrly Crew and formed a alliance to together takeover the planet.īizarrly Pirate Crew were imprisoned in ice at a cold part of the planet, Seaberia. They seek to take over the planet and make it a new base for them. The Mantanas are a group of Fishmen of some sort, that seek to take over Water-O, as the planet they had come from had dried up. The Waterians asked the visiting TigerSharks for help, which they agreed to. Waterians found themselves with two terrible factions joining together and aiming to take out the Waterians. After the Mantanas came to the planet, they released the crew. They had imprisoned the Captain Bizarrly Crew in ice a long time ago to keep the planet in peace. The Waterians are a friendly race of humanoid amphibian people.
The TigerSharks agreed to stay as they needed to get the X400 off the planet as anyone that has it could do vast harm to whole planets. The Waterians in turn asked for the TigerSharks help.

#Tigersharks cartoon episode 1 tv
Tony writes for his own site,, about comics, video games, movies, TV and more, six days a week. Not that Cats or SilverHawks were that much better.ĭo you remember the Comic Strip, or TigerSharks for that matter? Suggestion for a cartoon? Comment below! What’s funny is that these all predated Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but just barely. Aside from TigerSharks, the block included The Mini-Monsters, Street Frogs, and Karate Kat. I understand Rankin/Bass wanting to reproduce the success of the ThunderCats, anthropomorphic animals + space, but this was a goofy step too far. The Comic Strip was a 90-minute animation block featuring four different shows, running on syndicated season in 1987, and had nothing to do with comic strips. And the name of the team, for that matter, was established before they were introduced to the “Fish Tank.” Whatever. The part that I find funniest is their names, which as far as I can tell are their God-given names. The rest of the team members’ names were Dolph, Octavia, Lorca, Bronc, and Angel. Walro, their chief engineer, changed into a walrus. Warning: incoming puns! The leader, Mako, turned into a mako shark. After traveling through a high-tech piece of futuristic machinery called “The Fish Tank,” they would become anthropomorphic sea creatures.
This team of humans traveled to the planet of Water-O where they defended the inhabitants from local and extra-terrestrial criminals. Think Hong Kong Phooey, but cats.įinally, there’s TigerSharks. Other campers included the children of Dracula, Frankenstein, the Mummy, etc. A normal sister and brother (voiced by Seth Green!) were accidentally sent to a summer camp for monsters.
Out of the four, this one had a premise that was actually pretty decent. There were characters like Moose the Loose and … honestly, I was done after that. Street Frogs were a musical group of teenagers that, aside from performing numbers, would get into some sort of trouble. Aside from a plethora of frog puns, Street Frogs either was or wasn’t exactly what you thought. While imitation is the sincerest form of making a quick buck, it makes me wonder what these shows were trying to achieve.įirst, there’s Street Frogs. The Comic Strip was a 90-minute animation block featuring four different shows, running on syndicated season in 1987, and had nothing to do with comic strips. While I wish their animated animal antics remained localized to felines, feathers, and fish (I am on a roll), their final offering included monsters, martial arts, and, uh, more cats. Just as I threatened to earlier, I’ve returned to discuss Rankin/Bass’ final animation output.
