Profiles in Villainy

Merla The Warrior Queen of Amazonia

The despotic Merla rules an alien world where women lord over men. She and her Amazonian army would send out flashing signals into the cosmos so to lure others to her planet. Equipped with powerful hypnotic rings, Merla would then mind-control any woman who came to her planet, forcing them to join her army. While any male captures were made into slaves who toiled in servitude.

Josie and The Pussycats fell into Merla’s trap and the space-faring pop stars were hypnotized into joining the queen’s ranks. The Pussycats’ roadies, Alexander and Alan, were able to escape and the pair eventually freed the Pussycats thus enabling them all to flee the planet.

Merla was voiced by actress Virginia Gregg and appeared in the sixteenth episode of Josie and The Pussycats in Outer Space, airing on December 23rd, 1972.

🐾🎵🎶 Valerie Brown from “Josie and the Pussycats” has the distinctive honor of being the first black female character in a Saturday morning cartoon series. The “Josie and the Pussycats” cartoon debuted in in the fall of 1970. Before the show came on the scene, the U.S. experienced the assassinations of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Robert Kennedy, the escalation of the Vietnam War, an increase in anti-war protests, progress on civil rights, and the first moon landing. In the cartoon, her role is similar to that of Velma in “Scooby-Doo”. Valerie is usually the hero of the day due to her mechanical skills, scientific abilities, and street smarts. 🎸

Femslash Friday

Prompt: @femslash-friday-prompts‘s October 22nd, 2021 word prompt of "matching”

Fandom/Ship: Josie and the Pussycats (Hanna-Barbera version); Melody/Valerie

My first drawn entry into this project I’m doing.

Inspiration-wise, the prompt of “matching” made me want to pick a ship with canonically matching clothes, which actually gave me a few options to chose from. I went with Melody/Valerie simply because I was in the mood to draw them.

I made two versions, one with their band outfits and one with their in Outer Space outfits.

I've been watching the original Josie & the Pussycats series by Hanna-Barbera and let me tell you, it's like a time capsule of 70s animation. I'm both befuddled and endeared by it

#josie and the pussycats #hanna barbera #like you've got a band but don't focus on the music #traveling around to world and beating a bunch of villains that are somewhere between Roger Moore Bond films to Batman 66 types #you have limited animation musical chase scenes and Casey Kasem #and a final season set in outer space!#and the whole thing only marginally resembles the original comics #it's like they took every animated property of the 1970s and threw it in the mix #but you can't even hate it #you can defend just about every part of it as being *product of it's time* or ironically hilarious #Like check it out if you can

I wrote out 1,000 words about how to write a Jem and the Holograms letter and 1,250 on Josie and the Pussycats… the episodes before they went into outer space. More after they did.

In editing, these didn’t make sense, but they helped me figure out what WOULD make sense (see pic) for a blog entry.

The original work will be set aside until I spend two hundred hours listening to This American Life and reading BuzzFeed as a crash doctoral course in expanding/combining themes into production.

My Favorite Childhood Cartoons

It would be a whole-ass lie if putting this list wasn't complicated, I also wanted to keep the list short. Because seriously I have rarely met a cartoon I didn't like. But I tried to hone in on the shows I would watch over and over again, if I couldn't watch anything else.

The other thing that heavily influenced the creation of this list is nostalgia, so many of these shows I watched when my mom was still alive and makes me recall the time in our living room on Brown Street gathered with my siblings like it was church staring at the television for hours.

For at least the last ten years I have had a ritual of Saturday Morning Cartoon, watching a wide range of animated shows that fell on Saturdays and during the week after school. Somehow this ritual grounds me in a healthy place in my past and footing in the present.

• Spider-Man (1966)

• Super Friends (1973)

• Battle of the Planets (1978)

• Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids (1972)

• Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space (1972)

• Transformers (1984)

• He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (1983)

• Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends (1981)

• Thundarr the Barbarian (1980)

• Dungeons & Dragons (1983)

• Voltron: Defender of the Universe (1984)

59/?? Childhood TV Shows You Should Watch

Title: Josie and the Pussy Cats

Seasons: 2

Episodes: 32

Run Time: 30 Mins

Original Air Date: September 12, 1970 - December 23, 1972

Synopsis:

Josie and the Pussycats featured a teenage all-girl pop band that toured the world with their entourage, getting mixed up in strange adventures, spy capers, and mysteries. The group consisted of level-headed lead singer, songwriter and guitarist Josie, intelligent tambourine Valerie, and air-headed blonde drummer Melody. Other characters included their cowardly manager Alexander Cabot III, his conniving sister Alexandra, her cat Sebastian, and muscular roadie Alan.

Each episode found the Pussycats and crew en route to perform a gig or record a song in some exotic location where they became mixed up in an adventure. The Pussycats usually found themselves in possession of plans for an invention, an item of interest to the villains, a secret spy message, etc., and the villains chased them to retrieve it. Eventually, the Pussycats would ruin the villain's plans, resulting in a final chase sequence set to a Pussycats song.

Season 2:

In September 1972, a sequel spin-off series titled Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space debuted on CBS. This version of the series launched the characters into outer space. Every episode centered on the Pussycats encountering a strange new world where they would encounter and often be captured by various aliens before escaping and attempting to return to Earth. A typical ending for an episode is that they meet a wise benevolent person who reprograms the ship's course for Earth, only to have a clumsy action by Alexandra (or occasionally Melody or Alex) set the ship on the wrong trajectory again.

My Rating: 10/10

My Reasoning:

I LOVED this show so much growing up! I still love it. It again has Scooby-Doo vibes, but I think that's a common theme with Hanna Barbera cartoons. They had a format that worked and ran with it in as many ways as possible. Even though some of the characters are a bit one-dimensional at times, I feel like they are still relatable and likable. Even the "mean girl" Alexandra is likable to some extent. At least, in my opinion, she is. Maybe not to everyone else lol.

Also, the second season is an interesting twist on the show. So I like that they were able to continue it and keep it a bit fresh. The songs featured in the show were also good. I honestly believe that most people would enjoy this show. Especially if you like Scooby-Doo.

Remembering American voice actor, disc jockey, music historian, and radio personality Casey Kasem on his birthday (April 27, 1932 – June 15, 2014), the presenter of American Top 40 (1970-1988) and Casey's Top 40 (1989-1998), and host of the American Video Awards (1983-1987).

Kasem also voiced many cartoon characters, including Norville "Shaggy" Rogers in the Scooby-Doo franchise; Robin / Dick Grayson on The Batman/Superman Hour and Super Friends; Alexander Cabot III on Josie and the Pussycats and Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space; Mark on Battle of the Planets; and Cliffjumper, Bluestreak, Teletraan I and Dr. Arkeville on The Transformers and The Transformers: The Movie.
