Production notes

This series was also known as "GI Joe: A Great American Hero." It was one of the first daily syndicated animated series to "push" its action-figure star.

The series was based on the 1983 "fighting force" of five different dolls, not the original 1960's GI Joe produced by Hasbro.

Originally a weekly series, it became a daily in 1985.

Eau De Cobra

I've used that line many-a-time since 1986 and it still crack me up when I hear it. This ep's plot is laughable but hey... that's why we watch it, right! I'm a big fan of the Baroness so I'm partial to this one. Remember to listen for CC's classic line at the end.
