Description
"Synergy!" Find your magical earrings everyone and let Synergy transform you into a Hologram as for the next two weeks, Saturday Morning Adventures becomes totally outrageous as we revisit Jem and The Holograms. The Human Star Wars Encyclopedia, The Padme Amidala of Anime, and co-host of The Socially Distanced and Anime x Pop podcasts Amanda Rivas is joined by her blood rival, real-life sister, and Bridgerton enthusiast Vanessa Gonzales to talk about this animated musical TV series created via a joint collaboration between Hasbro, Sunbow Productions, and Marvel Productions that ran from 1985 - 1988. This series follows the adventures of Jerrica Benton, record company owner, who transforms into her singer alter-ego Jem with the help of her computer Synergy, and the adventures of her band Jem and The Holograms. Vanessa and Amanda reminisce about why they fell in love with the series, talk about the message behind the show, and who was more interesting between Jerrica and Jem. They also talk about the legendary rivalry between Jem and The Holograms and The Misfits, series villain Eric Raymond, and the eternal love triangle between Jerrica, Jem, and Jerrica's long-time boyfriend Rio. Lastly, they talk about the legacy the show left a whole generation of 80's babies with. Join us next week as Amanda watches for the first time ever and Vanessa revisits the 2015 live-action Jem and The Holograms film. Will the movie be truly as outrageous as the show? You'll have to tune in to find out.
