  • gems are truly outrageous.

    they are truly, truly, truly, outrageous.

  • Wow, I completely forgot how stupid this show was.

  • hahaha... i remember back in 80's i woke-up early just to catch and watch this cartoon at ABS channel 2. the songs here are great even the misfits songs. jajaja

  • Taric bought me here.

  • Better than crap on TV now a days.

  • @AJFanForever THANK YOU! The cartoons now are so... lame.

  • Jem was voiced by two different actresses apparently one for singing and one for talking. I was under the misconception it was Melendy Britt voice of "Princess Adora"/"She-ra" but I was obviously mistaken

  • Man even the girl's cartoons were better back then.

  • MY CHILDHOOD!

  • oh look, it´s taric´s bitch!

  • I love the animation.

  • I just got the jem and holograms at walmart

  • Awsome!

  • LOL, they look like the female version of Kiss.

  • Back when cartoons had theme songs instead of some electric garble. The good ole days and I didn't even know it.

  • Lady gaga is the closest look in comparison....

  • @Baldoxxx4000 she just copies people (like Madonna, I'm surprised she hasn't tried to sue yet)

  • @Baldoxxx4000 Sorry, shoulda clarified but I thought it was obvious (I meant gaga copies people, not Jem. Jem's a cartoon, who's she gonna copy?)

  • it sould be a real movie

  • Jem, just marry me already

  • I hope they make this into a movie. Natasha Bedingfield makes a great Jem and Jerrica Benton. Even Katy Perry would make a great Kimber Benton.

  • @Sharptooth100 Also, if the live action movie turns out anything like the "Josie and the Pussycats" live action movie, I'm not watchin' it (that movie was an 'update' of The Pussycats cartoon, and it was LAME).

  • I strongly think that Hannah Montana tried to copy this.Because remember Jem is a rockstar BUT she cant reveal who she really is.Anyway i love Jem and Pizzazz

  • @Cherrypop513 You're not the only one to think that (and I didn't think about that till after I read your comment). Maybe producers at Disney Channel, or whoever sold the idea of Hannah to them must have known about Jem, and used that concept --and a lot of the 'double life' conflict--to make a new show to sell to little girls. Even the sparkly, colorful look is similar, just more modernized, so it's not ridiculous to think that Disney copied this show--or anything else.

  • @Cherrypop513 What's more is that Miley can't even sing good (my aunt went to one of her concerts w/ her young daughter and said she sounded "like a dying cat". she doesn't even sound that good with voice alterations, she sounds too teenager-ish too, it's hard to listen to), but whoever sang for Jem sings way better--and I'll bet it's w/out voice alteration too.

  • did anybody noticed roxy is playing keytar becuase in the show stormer play the keytar

  • I fell in love with this cartoon when I first saw it.

  • jiz jiz on yo belly oooh jiz my jiz is real smelly oooooh

  • This intro resumes the 80's in less than a minute O.o GLAM!

  • Gems are truly outrageous.

  • my mom use to watch this before i was born =)

  • Everytime i hear this song it reminds of the song "Fame"

  • @Avian07 now that you mention it ... it does sound like "Fame" ^^

  • BRING BACK THE 80's waaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh! Eccentric fashion, Weird hair, over the top make up, rocker chicks with big shoulder pads, and dudes who are not afraid to wear cut out tank tops or mini shorts! I miss it all!!!

  • I'm a male and I honestly believe this is the best cartoon ever.

  • there's something that always puzzles me out about the theme song, i know that pizzazz is the leader mistfits but how come at 0:27-0:31 roxy's in the middle while pizzazz is in the left, i thought leaders always in the middle of a group

  • Thier outfits are whats society is wearing now, look around

  • @D9ni3L98 I live!!!!

  • I love this theme song better than the one they did mid season. All because the Misfits are in this one. Truly, Truly, Outrageous!!!!

  • This was composed by Anne Bryant, who also created the original 1984 Transformers theme with its awesome bridge section, "Autobots wage their battle to destroy the evil forces of the Decepticons!"

  • 0:09 WHAT THE FUCK? IS THAT THE RESULT OF RADIOACTIVE TOOTHPASTE?

  • TARIC

    

  • Sure like to see other classics such as 'Ghost Busters' aired on The Hub. Miss the 70's and 80's classics.

  • @D9ni3L98 Our songs are BITTER!

  • @scorpeoBornIn69, 4:30 AM PST and 10:00 PM PST

  • LOVE JEM!

    

  • Anyone got Kid Discovery or known as The Hub on cable or direct television? This cartoon is being air on The Hub and has been all summer long. I watch Batman Beyond on The Hub and found out they air Jem and the Holograms twice, once in the morning and in the evening.

  • @ScorpioBornIn69 yea but they air it sooo damn early in the day

  • my gem rap song youtube.com/watch?v=aJCfH8F4d1­Q

  • TARIC!

  • Samantha Newark did Jerrica's speakin' voice. I was wonderin' if she couldn't sing, since Britta Phillips sang the songs.

  • shout! factory is releasing the first season and a complete series(all 65 eps) DVD box sets of Jem and the holograms on 10-11-2011^_^

  • I LOVED this cartoon as a kid. There's nothing like the cartoons from the 80s. Remember Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers? Sigh...I miss my childhood sometimes.

  • THIS WAS MY FAVORITE CARTOON! "GLAMOUR AND GLITTER FASHION AND FAME!"

  • I was very little, but I sooooo wanted to be Jem....and have a big pink hairdo hehehehehe!!! Back then sounded crazy, now it´s possible so, I should make my childhood dream come true and have a big fat pink kick ass do hahhahahahha!!

  • I love this cartoon. I never knew about this cartoon until it premiered in the Hub channel to mnths ago. I was born in 1987 and wasn't even born when it first premiered and It wasn't too popular when I was a little girl and was never on much it when I was little, but boy was I missing a major classic! I only started watching it in May. I love it! They look like rockstar Barbie with their colorful hair! I love the songs, the fashions, Jem is truly truly outrageous!! I'm definitely a Jem girl!! :)

  • The Misfits should've kicked Jem and The Holograms ass

  • Oh Jem, you're so outrageous. Truly, truly, truly outrageous! -Mayor West.

  • @Andachtowner I WAS THINKING ABOUT THAT WHEN I WAS WATCHING FAMILY GUYS A COUPLE NIGHTS AGO!!! :)

  • I'm a Brony, and I love Jem <3

  • We are The Misfits are songs are so gay we are the Misfits. Is that what they said lol

  • Am I the only one who likes the Misfits part? o.o

  • @Limelime99Zones I liked the Misfits too! lol I watched Jem as a kid.. so glad The Hub is airing them now!

  • @buffycharmedangel102 i know!!!! i was borad a was watching hanna montana vids and found this. so glad i did

    hanna montana is so a rip off of the show!!!! (coming from a 15 year old girl)

  • I don't know if I'm the only guy on here, but I LOVE this show & always have. People would tease me like forever asking me if I was a Jem girl & I would say yes! And proud of it. Sad to think, that I rememeber most if not all the words to all the songs that were sung. Thumbs up if you too are a Jem Girl!

  • the 22 are misfit and stinger fans

  • The 80's Hannah Montanna

  • @TheHappyenchilada oh yeah i never thugh about that!

  • I was born when the show ended, I wished they showed more re-runs in the 90s. I just turned to Hub and instantly thought that Hannah Montana was a less vibrant/glam, live action version of Jem. I'm grown and I'm actually liking the show too! lol The songs & animation are really great! But if they made a live action movie, I could see Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj, Madonna, Cindy Lauper, etc. in it somehow. Don't kill me, just random thoughts! lol

  • WHOA WHOA WHOA... So Jem is truly Outrageous.

  • LOL I DONT CARE THIS SHOW is fucking ballin hahahah

    So much better than like 90% of shows these days

  • Taric > Jem

  • Just watched this show the other day on The Hub and even though I'm 21 and never really grew up on this, for some reason.... I already love the show. lol!

  • Im 25 and id rather watch dis den any adult shows I love dis cartoon so happy its back on di air

  • the two teams of girl band battles for being famous which they look like autobots and decepticons, autobots as the jem and the holograms band and the decepticons are the misfits band

  • OMG! The hub has Jem!!!

  • Weird how this cartoon girl sings better than popstars these days

  • @EpicEevee9001 they need to renew their style and shit, so they can compete.. if Gorillaz can.. Jem can.

  • @supertamal2099 Isn't that what sucks about mainstream music? That artists can't be themselves without having to change in order to 'compete'. People always copying off of one another just to stay famous and make money? It's sad. I think it's sad. Besides, Jem is a cartoon, not a real-life band, they were meant to be the way they were created.

  • @RetroLaydeh42 again.. gorillaz..cartoon band.. still competed really well.

    with their own developed style.

  • @supertamal2099 Aren't they more recent though?

  • @supertamal2099 and I didn't know Gorillaz was a cartoon band, sorry. The point is though that artists aren't being recognized for their talent, but for their look--and they have to sound like evryone else most times to compete. Gorillaz is not a TV show like Jem though, and no new episodes had been made for years, so it's pretty much a product of it's generation (one that a lot of people remember and love)

  • @RetroLaydeh42 Gorillaz started with nothing as well, from zero, got a simple video with a catchy song (the song was clint eastwood) and started to earn popularity.

    Jem could do the same if the creators could play its cards well.

  • @supertamal2099 Okay, I understand, they're successful (they're one success story), but did you get my point? Besides, just my opinion but I think Jem should be left alone. I don't think Jem and Gorillaz started or ended the same way though (and according to you, since I don't know anything about them except that they do rap & rock, Gorillaz started out more recently and continues to make music. Alot of times, it's harder for a band to come back than it is for a band to start).

  • @supertamal2099 Also, Jem is a TV show that became popular almost instantaneously. Gorillaz does not have a TV show as far as I know, and they did not have any period of time where they ended and made a comeback, so they're not exactly the same (and according to what I'm reading Jem has yet to make a comeback).

  • @supertamal2099

    rofl - you know that Damon Albarn, one of the guys behind the Gorillaz, already was the frontman of a pretty succesful band called Blur? The fact that he was involved automatically meant it got a lot of buzz.

  • @EpicEevee9001 Ha, totally! I agree!

  • This toon used to make my sunsets more golden

  • but we're the misfits! our songs are better!

  • I sooooo loved watching this when I was a little girl in the 80s. Glad to see it back on TV. The 80s was my life. I'm an 80s kid all the way.

  • 0:28 oh look its tokio hotel!

  • Dude, this was my cartoon back in the day, LOVE this shit!!! I'm sooo happy it's back on TV

  • Outrageous!!!!!!!!!! I love this show back in the 90's : ) The music back them was awesome. I would rather listen to Jem and the Holograms/ the misfits music then listening to today music.

  • Omfg I LOVE to watch this on the Hub and I'm 15. Is it wrong that I know all the lyrics to it?

  • @PurpleAngelIdol Not at all! I'm 28 and I know the lyrics. :P

  • Comment removed

  • @greatgonzales Her name is Kimber. She is the youngest of the Holograms (think of Bumblebee of the Transformers).

  • I'm super happy that its on the HUB channel, even my 2 yr old loves it ^_^

  • I think I saw Jem as a kid...but I just started watching it on the Hub channel.

    I'm glad its on tv.

  • "Jem" TV Series Now!!!

    HUB Channel!!

    "Jem" Movie Coming Soon....

    Villain: "The Misfits"

    Sci-Fi,Kids Family & Action...

  • I was Jem for Halloween. Don't remember the year though.

  • i don't remember this show.

    sounds like i missed something cool :(

  • omg dat is where they got hannah montana from lol

  • This is where disney came up with the idea for Hannah Montana LOL

  • Its coming on hub today

  • This cartoon is addicting and The Misfits are stone cold biatches <3 Still cant get over Jericca being totally ok with bf screwing Jem. Crazy broad lol

  • i watched this for the first time today on da hub (90's kid) does anyone see similarities between this and Hanna Montana

  • It's on the Hub channel now.

  • they're showing this after My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic on the Hub

  • You know I was thinking, if they made a movie of Jem, Lady Gaga would be perfect to play Jem. What do you guys think?

  • @gu1t4rjiro people who call others gay often are trying to hide their own homosexuality .w.

  • @mugtisersold indeed

  • @mugtisersold says who?

  • @mugtisersold Where the fuck did you hear that? Hahahah

  • @birdman631 from common sense and rationall thinking

  • @mugtisersold that doesn't sound like common sense OR rational thinking to me... but, it is something that has occured many times... people who are gay getting up infront of millions and preaching against gays... Ted Haggart for instance, and there's a senator who fights against gay rights who recently got caught taking an impromptu vacation to Spain with an escort from an online gay escort place... SUPPOSEDLY he was using the escort to carry his luggage but yeah right...

  • Jem is coming to The Hub in May

  • @Digatone

    And with that, the Age Of Nostalgia becomes even more powerful. God I love the Hub!

  • @Raccoon7777777 same here

  • Comment removed

  • I totally had that belt! Love you Jem!

  • the fact that i remember the words scares me :D

    still loving the outfits though <3

  • I watched JEM in the 80's , it was awsome. I remember thinking wow she's so wild 'n outragous! I was so sugar 'n spice 'n everything nice, so I preffered Barbie. I think Miley Cyrus should play JEM in a new movie version though!

  • jem is her name.....thats all

  • Curse those Misfits....someone's gotta teach them a lesson

  • Shout just announced they're finally working on the DVD sets.

  • @dynomitis Hmmm...now THAT would've been interesting. Scarlett, Lady Jaye, & Cover Girl temporarily team up with Baroness to form another band to rival Jem & the Holograms AND the Misfits. And the guys would go crazy.

  • i miss those days with such cartoons

  • Aren't The Misfits supposed to be a punk rock band from the 80s?

  • Now that I listen to this I can't help but think some Wario Ware songs are parodying it. Eh, maybe I'm just imagining things.

  • Jiz is soooo much better :)

  • classic! 

  • truly outrageous

  • Jem's voice is amazing. Everyone is right, Hannah Montana is shit compared to her.

  • I loved this show! Granted, I was a boy, but still loved it! I didn't care if any other boys saw me watching the show. I remember it came on after G.I. Joe,at about 6:30. I remember this because I was really into cartoons. I wish Qubo would put it on the air. It's alot better than the crap that they show now!

  • One of the best 80s cartoons ever!!!!

  • la mejor serie del mundo siempre la recierdo y todavia despues de 20 años me se sus canciones

  • this one was very cool! it still is! I always wach it! no body from holland knows it really! to bad!

  • I remember having on the Jem costume for Halloween,it's funny when i look at the pictures now!

  • 20 people are not truly outrageous

  • truly truly truly outrageous (8)

  • Hey cimmeriabastardsword, I ran track in school, and when i was running i would sing "Time is Running Out". LOL. 

  • @Jewlsdc

    haha, I didt remember that song but thanks to utube I know what youre talking bout

  • SO . . . PINK . . .

    I can't stop watching it for some reason.

  • I used to shudder in horror that they would remake Jem. Then I learned about Hannah Montana and a piece of me died. DAMN YOU DISNEY!

  • 80s cartoons r t best, nuff said

  • I watched this as a little girl. I LOVED LOVED Jem and the holograms!!! I still have the dolls and the tapes. I cant say enough about how much I love the 80's. Miss my childhood so much!

  • @DunderMufflin1

    Girl I wasnt a little girl but I enjoyed watching this so called girlshow!

    Cant believe u still have your tapes and shit, once a Jemfan, a Jemfan for life, real!

    80's cartoons ruled!

  • I don't think any decade can capture the magic of the 80's, which unfortunately was a precurser to the boredom of the 90's. The only thing I loved about the 90's was new years eve 1999, saying thank god the 90's are DEAD!!!

  • Que antiguooooooooo recuerdo cuando kbra xikaaaaaaa!!

  • 19 people are not truly, truly, truly outrageous.

    Jem was one of my favorite shows when I was a kid!

  • Oh this brings back memories...... The show always seemed so glitter n glitz and exciting!!!!

  • She was completely modeled after Debbie Gibson.

  • 19 dislikers must be fans of the Misfits

  • all womans are bless for us

  • I always say it....Lady Gaga is a stupid copy of Jem.

    Jem is the best.!

  • RaJa was my first child Love :D!!!!!!

  • @mikele444 It'a Aja

  • Man.....this is another throwback. NYC. 1986. WPIX CHANNEL 11 on a Saturday morning!!

  • @trdxsd2010 FELLOW NY'er! NYC WPIX! Channel 11... Bloodsport...every week!

  • "our songs are better" lmao

  • Hanna montana deja de copiar a jem...aunque hay que reconocer que la musica de los dibujos era mejor.

  • This is the season 2 theme I think, right? The 1st season one is way more upbeat.

  • @lifeseclipsemusic Actually this is the first opening, the second opening is Jem girl, which is probably the one you're thinking of?

  • @SoffeMcCracken

    Can't believe I am about to argue this... Click on the very first episode, called "The Beginning". It is right next to these comments in fact. If you click, the very first season 1 episode, the theme song is the one I am talking about and NOT this one, this is the 2nd theme opening. Season 3 has it's own too. Research all you want, check all the pages, but you really have to look no further than clicking on the first episode to see the original theme. 

  • OH CRAP and this is why i love PINK......

    i hate you JEM!

  • Gems are truly outrageous. Truly truly outrageous.

    -taric

  • @Iamlaughingman Hee hee, I get the reference. =)

    They should totally make a Jem skin for Taric, I would totally buy it! He would say that in that slow voice of his: "Gems, are, truly, outrageous. Truly, truly... outrageous"

    Outrageous Taric, FTW

  • i used to rewind my vhs tape of this to watch this part over again because the Misfits part actually sounds good. :P

  • @CassandraOXOX The full song has the Misfit part sung twice, and it's 1:19 long. Good enough for me!

  • Omg, if I could buy the box set, I sooo would! Lol

  • OMG this was my favorite cartoon growing up I had the doll and i also had the rico doll this use to be my shitt lol I still remember the words to the theme song

  • mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm­mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm­mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm­mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm­mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm­mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm­mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm­mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm­mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm­mmmmmmmmmmmm
