I agree with you that "everybody" knows Thundarr. But "everybody" is probably every kid who was between 5-10 years old in the early 80s. It didn't have a lot of toys, t-shirts or other merchandise like some of the bigger cartoons (GI Joe, Transformers, He-Man, even MASK & Gobots). Outside of that age group, I doubt many people know Thundarr.

But to us, you're right. It's not really obscure.

Man, I would love to catch an episode of this right now. Kids these days would *roast* us for that.
