Considering Top Gun released in May of 1986 and Galaxy Rangers debuted in September 1986, I think you're giving the film to much credit for inspiration. You don't dash out a quality animated series in 4 months.

Not to mention, Iron Eagle pre-dates Top Gun as it was released earlier in '86.

I'm 47 years old... and i still love the 80s animation tv series shows... nothing beats the 80s

This cartoon deserves either a continuation or a modern remake. Heck the plot of this series is so good it might even be able to make the jump to a live action adaptation. A smart company would jump all over this property.

One of the most underrated cartoons of all time ,I would love to see this get a remake

one of the things you missed was, the target audience was preteens and younger, BUT, it found an audience with adults and high schoolers.

Your snarky comments comPLETEly undercut how AWESOME this show was. And this show WAS. TOTALLY. AWESOME.💯💯💯

Galaxy Rangers was so BADASS!!! Loved it! Gooseman was my favorite character.

ONE OF MY FAVORITE CARTOONS OF ALL TIME! I used to love watching this every morning at 7:30am before going to school! Got the series on DVD!

I was hooked on this anime back in 86’. The intro alone...blew my 9 year old mind away with the insane animation and rocking soundtrack. This anime was so dope it was absurd for back then.

No Guts, No Glory! I loved this show

scarecrow was a legit horror villain.

The Queen of the Crown was a seriously epic and terrifying villain. Wasn't she always dissolving the members of one enslaved species into energy to power her army's psycho crystals, and keep Zachary's wife's soul trapped? I found that very dark when I was a child.

Totally Love this show. Have the entire series on DVD. No Guts, No Glory!!

I watched this as a kid in the mid 2000’s. I found it at my library.

My all-time favorite 80s animated cartoon. Proudly have the complete series on DVD. Would love to see it made into a legit live action movie, BUT DONE RIGHT!!!!

The storyboard artist for Galaxy Rangers is Ken Landgraf who was one of my art teachers when I was a kid, and they released a GREAT 8" 1/10th scale action figure toy line in UK!

Yea, I remember watching this as a kid. If Kevin Feigie knows what's good for him, he should by this IP immediately. A Live action Galaxy Rangers movie, produced by the Russo brothers and directed by Taika Watiti is a sure billion that doesn't affect the MCU. It's got that 80's retro vibe. A band of misfits. Spaceships. Cowboys. Strong female characters. It's got a black nerd, who is also the comic relief . Funny aliens for Instant merch. Enough obscurity to be hip but not sacred to any army of rabid fanboys. It's Star Wars without the baggage. It's also quite patriotically American while being inclusive and diverse. It's "fast and furious" in space. It's got rock. It's got EDM.

Awesome soundtrack that echoes Transformers The Movie (1986).

Loved this show. The Super-Trooper story arc was very good.

Outstanding Thank you

This show came out when I was nine years-old, I loved it. It probably will never get rebooted because it was a stand alone show without any association with a bigger franchise so the mainstream fanfare and popularity just isn't there. But thanks to the internet and DVD, the few fans this show has can relive their childhood fantasies over and over again.

One of my favorites!

All in all though great video. Thank you

I keep hoping you all will do an episode on Saber Riders and the Star Sheriffs!

Best 80’s Cartoon EVER!

Lol!! I love these videos!! Very nostalgic... Not to mention, that she’s hilarious!

You forgot it was one of the first cartoons to use computer animations in it

Definitely a show that deserves a revival.

It sorta helped set the stage for 'Firefly' with the space-western aspect.

I have the whole series on DVD!!!

Absolute favorite next to Transformers. And the theme song is still the best kid's show intro of all time.

I never saw a single Galaxy Ranger toys at retail. Ever!

This is one of the best of all times...

Also, is there a chance for a Spiral Zone video?!

Erm. "Q-Ball" was the Rangers' chief tech-support guy. Amusingly enough, Doc's pocket computer was his only 'major' piece of equipment that didn't have a name; each of his super-programs had names, but not the computer itself...

The Galaxy Rangers was in production since 1982 or earlier for 1986 release with 65 episodes, you can't animate 65 episodes in one year. Maybe the production studio for Top-Gun took there ideas or two minds think alike

Does someone know if there is a longer version of the end credits song? I love that song.

I bought the series through Apple I tunes.. which is how I know the section and scene you were referencing them being Renegade Rangers, was footage from Edge Of Darkness.. as the titles were swapped. Each one is actually the other episode... but this is my all time favorite series...

I still watch galaxy rangers to this day

Everyone was psychic in Vibes. Love that movie.

When i listened to Danger Zone and Galaxy Rangers theme song back to back, I knew they sounded almost alike.

OK, great job. But there's one thing that I'm confused about. At 0:45 you take off your sunglasses and toss them away. Then, at 19:22, they "magically" appear on your waist.

One could also say that The Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers, and, to probably an equal extent, the also criminally underrated BraveStarr, influenced perhaps one of the greatest JRPG sagas of all time in the Wild Arms franchise.

I used to love this show intro was off the hook

Cartoon was amazing. Along with Saber Rider

5:54 "-carries a small portable computer named Q-Ball-"... uh, the portable computer is called a CDU, or Computer Diagnostic Unit. Q-Ball is an actual character who is the brainiac in the goggles you had on-screen in other parts of the video. He's BETA's head scientist and in charge of the Longshot Research Facility built into the walls of the Grand Canyon, featured in a handful of episodes. This is supposed to be an informative video, and you messed up on the details.

Also, your presenter/writer got hung up on the 'hummin' thing, which shows they didn't really watch the show, because by that point the audience would have been familiar with that mispronunciation being how the elephant-like Pedulonts, particularly Geezy, pronounce 'human'.

"No guts no gloray" is 1000 Times better than dangerzone

I remember watching this classic anmie series on Chicago-area cable-TV, but I think it was called 🤔, " Sabre Rider and The Star Sherriffs In The Sky !. " Is this the same series ?

the female characters on Bionic 6 and Defenders of the Earth were also the ones with the mental powers. the female character on the Cheers spin-off, Fraiser was psychic when the series started, but they basically got rid of that when people actually started to watch Frasier. Oh, and Jenny on Buck O'Hare and the Toad Wars.

Too bad I remember this ended in a cliffhanger, I like to see this continued and finished.

Definitely one of my favorite shows but they need 1 ep that has Zack get his wife's Psycocrystal back to rescue her.

In 1986 I vhs recorded every SINGLE Episode of this!!!

Just for the record, cueball was not docks handheld computer. Cue ball was the scientist that invented the series 5 implants and worked at beta Mountain

Western in space? I know Bravestarr released in 1987, but I think the space western cowboys concept was done better. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely loved Galaxy Rangers.

Do Saber Rider and The Star Sheriffs next

Animated space western = Saber Riders and the Star Sheriffs (a Voltron styled show), although this one does come close. There's also Space Adventure Cobra, but that's straight up psychedelic.

No guts, no glory.

Dang you packing some heat 😍

Born in the early 80's never saw or heard of this

My favorite american animated TV show from the 1980s part fist full of dollars, part star wars, star trek and a touch of everything else. with a great soundtrack. sadly only 1 season and basically no merchandise support.

Loved this cartoon. I think the "Goose" character probably goes back to Mad Max.

Wow,the hostess of this show is drop dead gorgeous!
