Episodes

Episode 53 - Inch High, Private Eye / Freakies 14.12.2021

We're going back to the wacky '70s again and we're getting smaaaaaall as we discuss Inch High, Private Eye. Jeff is still confused about the comma. And before that, we talk about a cereal that should have been a cartoon instead, FREAKIES!

Episode 52 - Kid 'N Play / Teddy Grahams Breakfast Bears 16.11.2021

In our ongoing quest to figure out why every pop culture phenom in the late '80s and early '90s got a cartoon, the crew watched Kid 'N Play and....yeah, we still have no idea. But we DO know that we wish Teddy Grahams cereal was still on shelves. Listen to find out why!

Episode 51 - SpaceCats / S.W. Graham 02.11.2021

This is a very special episode, because we're discussing a cereal and a cartoon that NONE of us are familiar with. Only Jeff remembers the S.W. Graham commercials because he's weird that way. SpaceCats was a listener suggestion and we can't believe we had never heard of it! Join us and learn all about some new stuff!!

Episode 50 - Halloween Spooktacular!!! 19.10.2021

No cereal, just 'toons today, folks! The crew shares their favorite Halloween-themed cartoons, all of which should be required viewing during October! We'll be back next time with more cereal! Happy Halloween!!!

Episode 49 - Tales From The Cryptkeeper / Super Golden Crisp 05.10.2021

Remember in the '80s when there were a lot of cartoons based on properties that really WEREN'T kid-friendly? Yep, still happened in the '90s. This time out we're talking Tales From the Cryptkeeper because what kid doesn't want to be moralized to after being scared out of their wits? But first, let's talk to Sugar Bear about one of the all-time classic cereals: Super Golden Crisp. Er, Golden Crisp....

Episode 48 - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles / Fruit Islands 21.09.2021

Cowabunga Dudes! This time out, the crew has a totally tubular time discussing the Heroes in a half-shell, the TMNT! But first, they go a bit Polynesian to talk about Fruit Islands cereal. Do real apple bits belong in a cereal? Listen and find out!

Episode 47 - Pro Stars/Pro Stars Cereal 07.09.2021

Sports and Saturday morning. What could possibly go wrong? Everything, you say? Not even Bo Jackson's charisma and talent could save this misbegotten attempt at cashing in on 90's sports celebrity. Did the cereal of the same name fare any better? Well......

Special Announcement 01.08.2021

Cory has a special announcement for all of our listeners!

Episode 46 - Camp Candy/Big MIxx 27.07.2021

This week, the crew discusses the concept of taking the leftovers of all your cereals and dumping them in a bowl. Is this a sound marketing strategy? What about an animated version of John Candy? Listen and find out our thoughts about Camp Candy and Big Mixx!

Episode 45 - Hammerman/Cinnamon Mini Buns 13.07.2021

Please Hammer Don't Hurt 'Em! But did Hammer indeed hurt us? You'll have to listen to find out as the crew discusses Hammerman! But first, they discuss just why a cereal that tastes like delicious cinnamon rolls just couldn't last on store shelves as Cinnamon Mini Buns.

Episode 44 - JabberJaw/Crazy Cow 29.06.2021

Just how many Scooby Doo clones were there? We'll let you know when they stop. But THIS week's cartoon is not JUST a clone of Scoob, it also borrows elements from Josie and the Pussycats! Do these 2 elements combine for fun? Listen and find out! But first, the crew talks about yet another cereal that none of them ever got to experience, and Jeff is REALLY feeling left out. Crazy Cow was a weird ce...

Episode 43 - Pole Position/Apple Raisin Crisp 15.06.2021

This is a weird one folks. We have a cereal that none of us have tried and a show that none of us understand. Surprisingly it makes for decent audio! So join us as we discuss Apple Raisin Crisp and Pole Position, the only video game adaptation that made the story even sadder than the game!

Episode 42 - Jonny Quest/Apple Jacks 01.06.2021

A is for Apple! I can't remember the rest, but I bet the rest of the crew does! Find out as they remember Apple Jacks and discuss why Jeff is the only one who still eats them! Then, set the wayback machine for WAAAAY back as the team reviews the original Jonny Quest cartoon from 1964! How well has it held up? Depends on which element you're talking about. Listen to learn more!

Episode 41 - Recess/Favorite Cereal Prizes 18.05.2021

This time out, we were challenged to remember our all-time favorite cereal prizes from our childhoods. Now you're thinking the same thing, right? It was a great trip down memory lane, which continued when we remembered our favorite time of day during school: RECESS!!! Was this the last great Saturday morning cartoon? It's a possibility!

Episode 40 - Captain N: The Game Master/NES Cereal System 04.05.2021

Hold on a secondicus, you mean there was ANOTHER video game cartoon AND cereal for us to cover? You mega-beticus! Was the show annoying? Oh yeah. Was the cereal delicious? Kinda! The gang goes back to the video game well to discuss the longest Nintendo commercial ever, Captain N: The Game Master! But first, they discuss perhaps the greatest gimmick cereal every created: The Nintendo Cereal System!

Episode 39 - Saturday Supercade/Donkey Kong Cereal/Donkey Kong Jr Cereal 20.04.2021

We know video games don't make great movies, but can they make great cartoons? The SuperCast crew debates that very topic this time as they discuss the first ever video game anthology cartoon, the Saturday Supercade! But first they discuss whether video games can make good cereal with Donkey Kong and Donkey Kong Jr Cereals! It's a Power-Up Saturday!!!

Episode 38 - Disney's Adventures of the Gummi Bears/Oatmeal Squares 06.04.2021

Leave it to Disney to turn a sugary snack into a franchise! And to do it well! This time out, the crew discusses Disney's Adventures of the Gummi Bears and we find out just WHY they chose to go with this particular cavity-causing candy! But first, we get healthy with a bowl of Oatmeal Squares. Boring? Maybe. Delicious? Absolutely.

Episode 37 - Fonz & The Happy Days Gang/Corn Pops 23.03.2021

Aaaaayyyy....the SuperCast crew bounces around through time with the coolest character this side of Lando Calrissian: Arther Fonzarelli! That's right kids, even Happy Days got a cartoon! Sort of. Did it work? Welll....Corn Pops are good, huh? Before our intrepid heroes venture into the past, they enjoy a bowl of Corn Pops and discuss just why they've managed to survive untouched for decades.

Episode 36 - The Adventures of the Lone Ranger/Total 09.03.2021

Hi-Ho Silver! This time out we travel back to the old west to discuss that Masked Avenger, the Lone Ranger. Who wasn't really LONE because he had Tonto, but whatever. Before we go back in time that far, we have a single bowl of Total, because that's all you need, right?

Episode 35 - Teen Wolf/Ice Cream Cones Cereal 23.02.2021

Teen Wolf! It's a fun 80's comedy starring Michael J. Fox! So of COURSE it was a perfect candidate for a Saturday morning cartoon! The themes of the movie are great for such an endeavor. If ONLY the cartoon had followed those themes. What did it do instead? Listen and find out. But first, why did a cereal shaped and flavored like Ice Cream Cones last less than a year on to toy shelves? We may have...

Episode 34 - Fillmore!/Churched-Up Cheerios 09.02.2021

As the SuperCast crew dives into 2021, they take a SLIGHT step back and discuss one of (if not THE) last Saturday Morning Cartoons, Fillmore! Was this a fitting swan song for the great Saturday Mornings of history? Listen and find out! But first, a lively debate is had about the decision by the makers of Cheerios to flood the shelves with every possible variety of toasted O's imaginable. Enjoy!

Episode 33 - A SuperCast Christmas 27.12.2020

Yeah, we're a couple days late, but this way you can continue the holiday vibes for a little while longer!!! Join the crew as they remember their favorite animated Christmas shows, both episodic and specials!!! Happy Holidays to you and yours, and thank you for a great year for the Saturday Morning SuperCast!

Episode 32 - The Wuzzles/S'Mores Grahams 01.12.2020

Just like this podcast, this cartoon is 2 things in one! The Wuzzles was a fun mid-80's concept from Disney that combined 2 animals into every character. The SuperCast crew has fun discussing their favorite mashup, but only after they discuss their love of S'Mores and whether or not a S'Mores cereal is ever a good idea.

Episode 31- The Get-Along Gang/Dinky Donuts 17.11.2020

Can't we all just get along? If we're the Get-Along Gang, then we can! It's another creation of American Greetings that became a Saturday morning franchise, complete with toys! How does the show hold up, can we all still get along with it now? Listen to find out! But first, the crew discusses the lack of success of donut-based cereals, which turns out to be much more interesting than it sounds!

Episode 30 - Underdog/Alpha Bits 03.11.2020

Have no fear, the SuperCast crew is here! And they're talking about everyone's favorite Shoeshine Boy, UNDERDOG! But first, they talk about one of the greatest debacles in the history of cereal: The un-sweetening of ALPHA BITS! How could a cereal once so great be brought asunder by something as silly as nutrition?
