Title: Am I REALLY the only guy that watched Jem in the 80s????REALLY!?
Post by: elirat49 on April 30, 2014, 02:38:10 am

"Jem is truly outrageous, truly truly truly outrageous!" I know I am not the only schlub who uttered those words back in the heyday of Hasbro marketed toy/cartoon cross promotional hybrids such as G.I. Joe, Transformers and yes... Jem. As a kid the story lines were a little soapy but I was a fan of those hot tunes and the compelling drama. Please I beg you all men of a certain age, dont tell me I am alone...please

I'm not a guy but I think you're flipping awesome to admit to that.  Please tell me you're excited for the Jem movie as well!

I looked up the show, and was too young when it aired to remember it. I do remember G.I Joe and Transformers.

I use to watch it but im not a guy but i seen others watching it. I think it would be hard to remember such pasific details as that from a very very long time ago. I also watched voltron, captain planet, x-men, I don't know if this show was in the 80's fat albert, heath cliff (same as idk), fragile rock, theres others that i probably can't remember. :cat:
