Lost TV gems: Space Stars 10-10-81 Space Ghost & Teen Force
Ойын-сауық
10-10-81 episode of the rarely seen Space Stars cartoon featuring Space Ghost & Teen Force, along with segments featuring the Herculoids and others. Duped direct from 16mm to Beta1. The BetaGems channel also has "Cartoon Lost & Found: Adam West October 1989 pilot, complete show," "1989 USA Cartoon Express & Nickelodeon Cartoons TV ad," "1989 King Koopa's Kool Kartoons on Fox Kids Club, longlost Mario Bros show," "1989 Secret Saturday Cartoon Show, Karate Kid & Camp Candy," and "Cartoon Theme Songs with Gary Owen & Bob Denver 1988 TV."
BetaGems are culled from an archive of over 1000 beta video tapes recorded from 1983 into the 1990s. Most feature live music performances broadcast on television in San Diego CA, though there are also rarely seen commercials, comedy clips, and other material that doesn't seem to be anywhere else on KZread or online.
Most of the tapes were recorded on a Sony SL-HFT7 Super Beta Theater Hi-Fi Stereo - the same model was refurbished and is being used for these digital transfers and uploads. In rare occasions where a BetaGems clip does appear elsewhere, we're only uploading if our own beta master is better quality or contains material not seen previously. Much footage comes from public television and public access broadcasts that the taper, who worked for a local cable TV production company in the 1980s, monitored nightly for several years. Some of the programming is strictly regional, mostly from the San Diego area.

This is when Saturday mornings were great!!
This episode can be found on the DVD release of “Space Stars” and it was digitally remastered and restored, and this one is a unrestored 16mm kinescope print from 1981 which was one of the last of the kinescope film prints before it went into master video tape during the 1980’s. They stop doing kinescope prints by around 1988 or so.

Kinescope ceased to exist as of the 1970s.
Thank you for sharing, this variety program is chock full of tropes!
Awesome! One of my favorite Saturday morning cartoons. Summertime was the best time back then, no school and Saturday morning cartoons!

And right up there with Captain Caveman.
I've said it before, but I'd love to see DC Comics give Space Stars the Future Quest treatment, in a mini series. Space Ghost and The Herculoids have already been established, and the others would fit in easily enough. Maybe one day.

Space Ghost the space policeman of the galaxy his history hidden but some know his identity and his history but he never revealed his own identity to just anyone except those he can rely on? I think this character had a strong connection to another legendary hero of the old west the Lone Ranger their backstories are not to dissimilar so is possible they are really kin it is also possible Space Ghost could also be related to Zorro and Green Honet and one another not Batman but possible connection to Hal Jordon /Green Lanten or Cpt Comet? There's something else about SG though he uses the title he wasn't the very first one I recall a character calling himself Space Phatom an alien with shape shifting powers and vast energy ability to alter his size and mass and used a couple of different identities as a policeman and a reporter and something changed things later the character turned up in marvel universe with a more deadlier look and origins were changed? He did look similar to Space Ghost originally taller and redish eyes than white?
