* [[Adored
* [[The Danza]]: Joey Dedio as (Joey) Wheeler.
* [[Fake Russian]]: Linka's American [[Voice Actors]], [[Kath Soucie]].
Line 8:
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: The celebrity voices were usually played up, but some of them required a more careful ear: for example, [[Tom Cruise]] was Captain Planet for the first few episodes before leaving the series.
** [[Funny Aneurysm Moment]]: The HIV-stricken teen Todd was played by [[Neil Patrick Harris]], who did the role for now-obvious reasons (he also had his "mother", the late great [[Elizabeth Taylor]]).
** Ma-Ti: [[Scott Menville]], who would go on to voice [[Teen Titans (
*** In Brazil, Ma-Ti is [[Tintin
** [[Frank Welker|Suchi]], Ma-Ti's annoying monkey companion, was also [[Transformers|Megatron]]. Make of this what you will.
** Kwame: [[Levar Burton]]. [[Star Trek:
** Gi: [[Janice Kawaye]]. She's also [[My Life
** Linka is [[Kath Soucie]], better known as Tish from ''[[The Weekenders]]'', and has an extensive voice acting career in both animation and video games.
** Fittingly, the German dub had Captain Planet with Dean Cain's regular dubbing voice, thus making him [[Lois and Clark|another]] [[Superman|superhero]]. Spain, however, has Kwame as the 1948 Superman.
** The show also featured [[Jeff Goldblum]] as Verminous Scumm, Whoopi Goldberg as Gaia, [[The West Wing
** Zarm, the god of chaos and pollution, was [[The Police|Sting]], then [[David Warner]], then Malcolm MacDowell!
** [[Tony Jay]] voices a Yeti.
** [[Quantum Leap|Al]] is Duke Nukem (not ''that'' [[
* In the Japanese dub:
** Captain Planet [[Hochu Otsuka|is]] [[Naruto
** Joey [[Shigeru Nakahara|is]] [[Mobile Suit Gundam Wing
** Linka [[Rika Fukami|is]] [[Sailor Moon|Sailor Venus]]
** Ma-Ti [[Chika Sakamoto|is]] [[My Neighbor Totoro|Mei Kusakabe]]
** Gaia [[Rihoko Yoshida|is]] [[Getter Robo|Michiru Saotome]]
** Dr. Blight [[Yoshiko Sakakibara|is]] [[Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ
* [[Name's the Same]]: This show's Duke Nukem shares a name with the video game series [[
** Also Joey Wheeler from the planeteers shares his name with another famous character named [[Yu-Gi-Oh!|Joey Wheeler.]]
* [[The Other Darrin]]: Whoopi Goldberg was replaced in Season 3 by [[Superman (
* [[What Could Have Been]]: In one episode we actually see that under very specific conditions, it was possible to have a Captain Planet without all five of his elemental superpowers (in this example he only had the powers of Earth and Heart, due to their ring-bearers being trapped on a spaceship). This caused the usual [[Deus Ex Machina]] Captain Planet to actually think strategically as he couldn't do everything he normally could . . . . sadly, this concept was never revisited beyond this one episode, but various partial power Captain Planets could have been an interesting concept to expand on.
