Nic_hse I remember the opening theme for this show. I can't seem to remember any particular episodes though. I do remember this show being above and beyond almost all the other cartoons at the time. Robotech was better, but nothing else I've seen. This was one of the few 80's cartoons that didn't insult your intelligence. Check it out if you can. Although I wouldn't get my hopes for a DVD release. Not likely to happen. The original master tapes of this cartoon are probably decomposing in a studio archive vault somewhere.Someone earlier mentioned that Galaxy Rangers pre-dated the cartoon\toy tie-in craze. That's not true. The toy cartoon\tie-ins you see now, began in the early 80's. The toys were made before many of the 80's cartoons were even produced yet. He-Man comes to mind but that's another story.
culwin I thought I was the only one who remembered this gem from the '80s! Ok there are very few of us who still recall this one, but I'm sure there would be many new fans of this show if some network, like, oh I don't know, maybe some network that is devoted to showing CARTOONS, would pick it up! Too bad it was so short-lived. I think it could have lasted much longer if it had been around earlier, but in the late '80s it seemed like cartoons were really dying out. Anyhow, I still remember this cartoon and it rocked!! :)
Shield-3 Don't get me wrong, I loved "Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers!" It outright combined two of my favorite genres, sci-fi and westerns -- I remember an article in STARLOG describing the show as "if Sergio Leone had directed STAR WARS."Honestly, though, it was doomed. An intelligent, well-written show with memorable, individualistic characters? A truly unique premise? No action figure tie-ins? Doomed. After all, this is TV, a medium that rewards idiocy and punishes quality. For every intelligent, unique show that succeeded, we all know dozens that faded away.I hope someone picks up this show, or releases more episodes on video. This could be a great cult show if it gets exposure. Sci-Fi Channel, Cartoon Network, wake up and start showing this gem!
Tsarith As a writer of science-fiction and fantasy, I find "Galaxy Rangers" to be one of the best written sci-fi cartoons ever. The scripts and dialogue are satisfying and the characters are captivating and dynamic. Every other sci-fi cartoon should take a lesson from "Galaxy Rangers." I'm a big fan, and I sincerely hope that "Galaxy Rangers" is brought back on the air somewhere. Anywhere. Are you listening Cartoon Network?
