The Zero Earth Hour

Random web surfing this morning triggered early childhood memories of this very old anime that I used to watch on Channel 44.  I didn't remember the name of the show or any of the characters except the evil Warlock of Mars. Fortunately someone has posted an episode on YouTube in all its poorly-animated black and white glory.

I have never seen anime that was that old before.

What was that cartoon that was sort of an eerie outer space adventure but the episodes were only about five or ten minutes long? IT started out with a rocket taking off and ominous narration that was supposed to make it exciting. And to a very young betty it was indeed exciting.

Actually, this made me try to find, on YouTube, something similarly obscure from my yoooth -- a Saturday-morning cartoon show from the very early seventies (and showing it) from DePatie/Freleng called "Here Comes the Grump." Unfortunately, I only came across the title section and an episode dubbed into Italian.

The Grump was voiced by Rip Taylor? Woah boy, say no more!
