Captain Planet and the Planeteers/Funny

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • I must have laughed for hours when the other Planeteers find a shrunken Linka's and Wheeler's empty clothes in "Frog Day Afternoon".

Ma-Ti: Where would they have gone?
Kwame: Without their clothes?

  • Wheeler in his The Complainer Is Always Wrong episode: "What's next? Endangered rocks?"
  • It's obviously not supposed to be, but in the infamous AIDS episode, the nonchalant way the doctor says, "There are only a few ways to contract the virus -- using drugs with needles, unprotected sex, or that blood transfusion a few years back..." without a single pause is just... priceless.
  • In one episode—a real episode of this series, mind you—Captain Planet is sent to jail.
  • I'm totally serious, Hitler inflicts pain on Captain Planet in one episode by staring at him.
  • From the pilot:

Ma-Ti: Wheeler! Don't say "fire" until you mean it!

  • In one episode, Dr. Blight kidnaps her good twin sister Bambi and prepares to steal her identity:

Dr. Blight: Time to walk a mile in my sister's shoes.
MAL: Her shoes, maybe, but not her jeans, judging by the rate that you are eating those donuts.
