Saturday Morning's Forgotten Heroes: Turbo Teen in The Sinister Souped Up Seven (1984)

 Turbo Teen (Michael Mish) gets amnesia, and is befriended by a pair of local kids until his companions, Pattie (Pamela Hayden) and Alex (T. K. Carter) can reach him. Meanwhile, there's the small matter of some treasure looters in "The Sinister Souped Up Seven":


Like Simpsons castmate Nancy Cartwright, Pamela Hayden apprenticed, if you will, on Saturday mornings in the 80's. T. K. Carter is better known as a "face actor" (Punky Brewster, Good Morning, Miss Bliss). Michael Mish was never heard from again.

If you pay attention to the closing credits, you'll find a familiar name in the character design department---Doug Wildey, creator of Jonny Quest and Jana of The Jungle, who was making a comeback in comics at the time (RIO).

No rating. Just a public service.
