    Question for New Yorkers

    Ok, back in the early 70s, WPIX would show a half hour of cartoons featuring Aquaman, The Lone Ranger and .....? I can't remember. Can anyone help me out? I know that in between the cartoons, the bumper would play The Popcorn Machine song by Hot Butter, (pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop).

    Anyone know what I'm talking about? What was the 3rd cartoon?

    I found a listing that stated The Lone Ranger was teamed with the animated Tarzan show also from Filmation for a while and syndicated on several stations in the early 80's. Would make sense since the Aquaman was from Filmation's too.

    Found another...How about ZORRO? The Tarzan/Lone Ranger/Zorro Adventure Hour (1981–1982).

    It's not a doll it's an action figure.

      Thanks, but this was the 70s. It wasn't the same Lone Ranger cartoon that Filmation released. This one came out in the 60s. But the cartoon line-up I'm speaking of was back in the 70s. On WPIX.

        Damn you are really going to make me rack my brain on this one. If i can't get it, I might ask some other dorks like me who are very nostalgic about the NY stations

              No. It was someone in the superhero realm. I remember the bumper (Popcorn song) in between commercials, had Lone Ranger, Aquaman and I don't know if it was Superman, or Batman or something...I thought Anthony (Toyroom) would be all over this!

              Hey Toyroom! What do ya say?

                  The only Lone Ranger I remember seeing is the live action one.

                        Yeah! That's it...I remember watching Jack LaLaine too. I used to think that LaLaine was the blonde woman exercising w/ him in the leotards!

                        Thanks!

                          I know The Magic Garden was on WPIX, but they're not Superheroes!
