I'd like to see a couple of their cartoons, if you have 'em, too, please! :)

You know what ALWAYS drove me crazy about these two, even as a little boy in 1968? The DOG would be changed into a CAT! LOL

Well, you know, I always thought the same thing. Why couldn't Samson just have a CAT that travels with him? I guess the thought was -- domesticated cats don't care one whit about you're welfare if you're in trouble. Plus, back then you had Lassie and Rin Tin Tin as role models -- they'd always come to your rescue.

i used to love watching this cartoon on the usa network before i went to school.

This was rather unique in that his superhero identity was NOT a secret. Everybody pretty much knew he was a superhero.

I don't remember this show except from discovering it online recently when searching old Hercules cartoons.

Being a giant lion wasn't enough? He needed laser beam eyes too.

I would have loved this as a kid. I guess He-Man and Battle Cat weren't as original as I was led to believe when I was ten.

@sebring1960  iT WAS THE REPUBLICAINS THAT HAD THE SUPERHEROS CARTOONS BACK IN THE 60's REMOVED .....THE DAM RIGHT WINGER DAMN FOOLS COMPLAINED ABOUT EVERYTHING THATS NOT BIBICAL

@Greenandscaly There never was a Shazzan Jr. You're confusing it with "Sinbad Jr and his Magic Belt" aka "The Adventures of Sinbad, Jr."

@realswellguy If I recall Young Sampson received his powers 8 years earlier when he was very young and was in the audience on a tv show called Andy's Gang , on the show was "Froggy the Gremlin" whose powers were quite litterally limitless, he took a liking to little Sampson and his puppy and then wished a couple of power braclets on him and sent him on his way, the rest is history

[MrReneManuel]

I agree with most of your comment. My guess if an unexplained origin story , just like recently how SG, Jan, Jace, and the praying mantis villian got to know each other, and the origin of SG's as an hero and explanation of his powers. My guess in this case, his father discover there in a "dig". probably the - "The Ancient Astronauts" ancienct technolgy bit. Discovery by father or son discovers how it works.

I like the show

[acholl980]

You think that's bizarre? Check out 'Yogi's Space Race'.

How DID Young Samson find his superpowers?? Well, as far as I have found (and I remember watching this series ss a pre-teen, back in the 1960s) the secret of how Young Samson obtained his magic bracelets and found the power to turn his pet dog into a lion that shoots power-beams from his eyes WAS NEVER EXPLAINED in the series. That actually made it more fun for me because it left some mysteries up to my imagination. You sometimes need that in heroic fantasy, even on the juvenile level.
