Line 1: {{work}} [[File:Godzooky.jpg\|frame\|Stare into the the face of Satan.]] {{quote\| ''[[Ear Worm\|Up from the depths, 30 stories high, breathing fire, his head in the sky ! Godzilla, Godzilla, Godzilla]] [[My Friends and Zoidberg\|...and Godzooky.]]''}} The giant lizard from Japanese films headlined this animated [[Action Series]], produced by [[Hanna-Barbera]] for [[NBC]] in 1978. Here, [[Godzilla]] had four human friends and a mischievous nephew, [[The Scrappy\|Godzooky]]. The supporting segment, ''[[~~Jana of the Jungle (Animation)\|~~Jana of the Jungle]]'', has its own entry. See ''[[Godzilla: ~~the~~The Series]]'' for [[The Nineties]]' ''[[Godzilla]]'' 'toon.▼ ▲See ''[[Godzilla the Series]]'' for [[The Nineties]]' ''[[Godzilla]]'' 'toon. ---- {{tropelist}} ~~=== This series contains examples of: ===~~ * [[Aliens Speaking English]]: Often. * [[All There in the Manual]]: Exactly how did Godzilla & Godzooky first meet the ''Calico'' and its crew, anyway? Only the original production notes for the show ever divulged that information: {{spoiler\|because the ''Calico'' saved Godzooky from being entangled in some seaweed.}} * [[Animated Adaptation]] * [[Atlantis]]: Actually hidden from the rest of the world in a manner similar to [[Brigadoon]]. * [[Attack of the 50 -Foot Whatever]]: Godzilla himself, natch, as well as most of the creatures he was pitted against. Godzooky probably also counts, as he's so big his ''head'' is larger than most doorways and he tends to tower over his human companions. It's revealed in the episode ''The Firebird'' that the main reason the Calico rarely uses what appears to be a set of optional hydrofoils to reach fairly impressive speeds is because he's so damn heavy he puts a lot of strain on the ship. * [[Belly of the Whale]]: Carl, Brock, and the ship get ''eaten'' by the Magnetic Monster. * [[Bigfoot, Sasquatch, and Yeti]]: The Watchuki tribe * [[Blob Monster]] * [[Brainy Brunette]]: Dr. Quinn Darien * [[The Captain]]: Capt. Carl Majors, although he really shares the leader position with Quinn * [[Continuity Nod]]: The penultimate episode "Island of Doom" plays the closest to the original ''Godzilla'' film, as Godzilla is attacked by the island's defense forces and has to rampage his way across to save the ''Calico'''s crew. * [[Convection, Schmonvection]]: Episode one. The team brazenly walks right into the lava tubes of a recently-erupted volcano. * [[Cool Ship]]: The ''Calico'', much like [[Jacques Cousteau]]'s ''Calypso'', but it has a swift hydrofoil mode. * [[Evil Twin]]: In one episode, a [[Mad Scientist]] clones the crew. In another episode, a [[Voluntary Shapeshifting\|shapeshifter]] impersonates Godzilla. Line 41 ⟶ 42: ** Also the Atlanteans * [[Humongous Mecha]]: The Colossus of Atlantis * [[Ignored Expert]]: In a double [[Shout -Out\|shout-out,]] the one Atlantean scientist who tried to warn his people their city would sink was named ''[[Supergirl\|Kara]]-El.'' * [[Incredible Shrinking Man\|Incredible Shrinking Godzilla]]: He even gets small enough in "MicroGodzilla" that ''bacteria in a petri dish'' become potential foes. * [[Just in Time]]: Practically a [[Catch Phrase]] on the show. * [[Kaiju]]: Of course. * [[The Kid ~~With~~with the Remote Control]]: Though the ''real'' signal device belonged to Captain Majors, Godzooky (Pete's pet super-lizard) could substitute when required. * [[Living Statue]]: The Golden Guardians * [[Mind Control]]: Axor, the Monster of Storm Island Line 55 ⟶ 56: * [[Reckless Sidekick]]: Godzooky. * [[Science Hero]]: The whole crew, but mostly Dr. Darien. * [[Sealed Evil in Aa Can]]: The Cyclops * [[Small Annoying Creature]]: Godzooky; somewhat subverted, as Godzooky was a good 30 feet tall if he was an inch. ** And, even though he's sweet-natured, Zooky is sometimes useful for intimidating human enemies since, you know, he's a thirty-foot tall flying dinosaur.
