This Saturday morning, for the first episode of our 2021 OCTOONBER celebration, Joseph and Chris watched Godzilla from 1997. This was suggested by David Brown via YouTube.
1. First Episode: The Firebird (S1E01)
2. My Pick: The Magnetic Terror (S1E10)
3. Highest Rated: The Moonlode (S2E08)
The crew of the research vessel, The Calico, investigate strange phenomena and often meet menaces that force them to summon Godzilla to help.

This show was actually the first Godzilla thing I ever saw as a kid watching the reruns of this on Cartoon Network, and I hadn’t seen any of of the movies until the 1998 American version came out in theaters. So yeah, I didn’t have the best introduction to Godzilla, hell, I never even saw a real Godzilla movie until 2008.
Even as a kid, I was usually bored whenever I watched this show but I always kinda pushed myself to watch it anyway since I had a friend who was a Godzilla fan so I felt I should be into it too. Now that I’m older, and more of a Godzilla fan, I actually like this show even less, mostly for the reasons you guys listed, and especially because of Godzooky. II know Godzilla had a son in the movies, but his son was never this lame, except maybe in that movie where he talks.
Godzooky even ruins the theme song for me. I find the them song to be fine for the most part, but when it gets to that “And Godzooky” part, along with the cartoonish sound effects, is such a mood whiplash that it’s actually kinda jarring.
