Kind of want a dark, gritty remake of Captain Planet where the Planeteers are washed up by their 30s and realizing that Captain Planet being on, "The Planet's Side" means he'll take out all humans if he's got too.
Also though, just the fact that Linka was from the Soviet Union, heh.
This reminds me about an abnormal aspect of my psyche.
Generally all episodic shows tend to follow a pattern of episodes.
There is a huge chunk of episodes being the trivial good vs bad. Then some "outliers" that go in the more gray aspect of it.
One of those gray-type episodes is where the villain manage to corrupt the heroes, in hope of winning by default.
In Captain Planet though, this brainwash move is done by making the heroes "dirty". They become the reverse persona of themselves, instead fighting for the clean, they becomes fighting for the dirty.
Somehow, even at young age, my brain captured the subliminal message of Linka becoming the "bad girl" by becoming "dirty".
I would never understand this until much later in my life, but this episode always seemed highly sexualizated to me: the hot girl with sexy clothes being "bad" and "dirty".
