Captain Boh, that might just be it. How cool, I'm going to run this by my brother, he's always been four years older than me so he usually has more lucid memories about things like this. He's helped me remember Auto-man, Gemini Man and Manimal before, from me just mentioning bits and pieces to him.
Regarding Captain Power, it's the first series I've seen with a recurring Sven-Ole Thorsen.
Strange also with the uncannily borg-looking Lord Dread. He must've been three or four years prior to "Q Who?".

Freakazoid! and the Tick were both great shows.
Animaniacs got annoying after a while (Slappy the annoying squirrel was just too much like the oldies on Miami Beach to be funny).
Freakazoid was done by the same people plus Paul Dini (of Batman fame) and was much better. I wish that was on DVD!

Gemini Man is a funny one. I remember so much of it - the accident during a diving mission that went wrong making him invisible, the watch used to control it - bearing in mind it was almost 30 years ago and I was only about 6 at time. But then, over time, it got mixed up in my mind with the David McCallum Invisible Man show.
When, in the early 90s they repeated the McCallum show I was really looking forward to it. Imagine my confusion when a) it was nothing like I remembered it, with the lame latex head and hands etc., and b) it was shite. It was only recently that an idle wander through Wikipedia brought me to the page on the show, and revealed the existence of the other show which was the one I remembered. A DVD release is essential!
