@deathcatg yeah but considering the show is based on the dolls first(cartoons were just 30 minute commercials back then, lol) her story arc might have changed by the time they were ready to introduce her into the show. Takes too long in a 30 minute "Mom I want this!" trigger to explain the specifics. And besides she was more a Misfits than a Hologram, Stinger or even a Starlight Girl, lol.
Me and my sister had jem and misfit dolls. We used to act out jem episodes in front of my older brother who loved the show too. None of us are speaking today, but those memories are still embedded in my mind like it happened yesterday. Priceless.
You can hear that song in the opening theme of the Jem cartoon. But when the Misfits are singing it they do not use Clash's name. Instead they say " But we're the Misfits our songs are better. We are the Misfits, the Misfits. And we're going to get her". Yes, I know I am a dork.
@brnleague99 The Misfits were horrid people. No wonder why you weren't married to her for long.
Yes, I did watch Jem. She was on the same show as Bigfoot and the Muscle Machines and Robotix. Wasn't crazy about Jem, but she was better than Inhumanoids.
@RossLGould The Misfits were awesome. At least you could see what they were and what they did a mile off. Jem's two timing herself with her anger-management issue boyfriend and her compulsive lying to cover her tracks was a bit more tricky for kids to pick out morally...though I guess it made for good TV, I always preferred the dark side.
@WRPBullet They have! It's on HUB Network. They showed episode 1 last night. *grin* I had forgotten that Jem was a doll line, but I remembered the show because I was one of the few boys back then who'd admit to watching it.
I loved Jem,got to get my daughter all these because they are better than Barbie.They were bigger ...I never forgot that song it is so catchy and Jem was so pretty all pink and sparkley....80s rock!
I don't understand why Jetta was never advertised, and clash was called 'the new misfit'...it;s like Hasbros advertisers weren't at all aware of the cartoon that sold these dang things, Pizzazz must've stated clash wasn't part of the misfits about a billion times.
yeah. that's what i heard. the barbie doll may have come frst but as far as music and the cartoon Jem came first. then mattel saw how popular it had become and decided to cash in on it with barbie and the rockers. Jem was better quality though.
I remember someone got me a JEM doll and I hated it! I thought it was so ugly with huge feet and she couldn't share cothes with any of my other dolls because she was a different size. Her makeup was scary.
Wow I feel so sorry for you thinking a Jem doll was scary and her clothes fits barbie and vice versa only the shoes didn`t Jem is the greatest toy ever
I remember getting a Clash doll when I graduated from Kindergarten back in 87'. I had seriously completely forgotten what the doll is supposed to look like, since I pretty much lost all of her clothes and accesories fairly quickly. Ahh memories!
I just got the Clash doll off ebay...Her hair is such a hassle to style, and it's nearly impossible for her green tinsel dress to not fall apart, but I love her!
Check out the girls' hairstyles and the old school cassette players!! I have a taped copy of one of the Jem cassette tapes. Music Is Magic is my favorite Jem song. I still love this show and its music, and I'm 31!
