There are several well-remembered 80s animated shows, but which one do you think best represents the decade? I'd say Jem. Looking back at the show, enjoyable as it was, it totally is like a mirror into the 80s, music videos, synth pop, big hair, lots of colors, and even some sci-fi elements (synergy) and some realism (evil corporate exec eric raymond) all coming together to make a show that couldnt come out any other decade.
