That list almost sounds like a new topic! :) Highlander the animated
series?? Wow. I missed that one...
All of the speed racer series have been bad. The only thing good about the
latest incarnation was the pilot. All of the following episodes got
progressively worse.

I don't remember much of Extreme Ghostbusters. Think I watched a couple of eps,
but didn't like it much. Was it out around the same time as that Starship
Troopers CGI toon, the horrible Speed Racer sequel series, and the incredibly
awful Highlander animated series?
