ProStars

In the 90's, the asking price for an athlete likeness endorsement was seemingly more within reach, even for a rather shabby outfit, than it is today. Such is the legacy of ProStars, the short-lived NBC cartoon series "starring" the North American sports star trio of Wayne Gretzky, Michael Jordan, and Bo Jackson (hey, two for one!). The three didn't actually do the voices for their characters, of course, instead filming short, to-the-point talking head segments as themselves, and leaving the voice acting to the professionals (who, one assumes, were not far too famous for this ignoble task like the real men were). Originally recorded in January 2024, Kevin invites you into the ProStars pantheon.
