We all know the DIC episodes of the G.I. Joe IP are atrocious and an affront to the senses of all G.I. Joe fans. It’s as craptacular as anything to hit the airwaves on a dial TV. From the opening entrance song, to the music, to the plots, to the horrendous voice acting, it fucking sucked.

Optimus Prime and the Hope That Leaders Still Matter - Serpentor's Lair

It was calm, steady, powerful, and full of something that felt almost rare even back then: certainty. Not arrogance. Not anger. Not empty toughness. Certainty. When Optimus Prime spoke, you believed him. You believed the Autobots could hold the line. You believed Cybertron still had a future. You believed Earth was worth protecting. You believed good could still stand up against evil and not blink.

Why Mr. Rogers Was the Real Superhero of the 1980s - Serpentor's Lair

We had muscle-bound warriors swinging swords, transforming robots fighting across the galaxy, commandos blowing up enemy bases, karate kids learning balance, ghost hunters saving New York, and time travelers trying to fix the future before it disappeared.

There was something magical about The A-Team that went way beyond explosions, van chases, and Mr. T throwing bad guys through conveniently placed furniture.
