Pac-Man (Hanna-Barbera, 1982-1983)
from The Pemmy, Krissi & James Kinda-Sorta-Hopefully Funny Cartoon Podcast · host James Irish, Krissi Harding & Pembroke W Korgi
Video game mania erupted in the early 1980s with the arrival of Namco's revolutionary maze-chase game, so leave it to Hanna-Barbera to turn the property into a dollar store diet cola version of both the Smurfs and the Flintstones. That's just the kind of rut HB was in during the 1980s, sadly, but it's not a complete loss thanks to the efforts of a stellar voice cast. Friend of the podcast and all-around Pac-Man expert Cary Woodham joins Pemmy and James to find the cure for Pac-Man Fever.
