Production notes
This version of the show consisted of fifteen 6 minute cliff-hanger cartoons. Super Sunday featured a rotation of 6 minute versions of Jem, Bigfoot and the Muscle Machines, Robotix, and Inhumanoids. Each of three episodes were combined into a full length show in the ultimate series. This episode was used to form Kimber's Rebellion.
Jerrica Benton is a young businesswoman who turns into outrageous rock star Jem with the help of her hologram-projecting earrings and computer Synergy. She and her band, The Holograms, come up against competition from the Misfits and the Stingers.
