Ok, so while I grew up watching BoTP I admit to having a better liking of Gatchaman (I know many of you out there are the opposite. LOL). I humbly ask this question because I cannot remember all the names of BoTP episodes and how they aired in relation to Gatch. Can someone please give me the names a few of the Jason centric episodes of BoTP?

If that's not a question for James....

Oh wait a minute. I just realized I *think* the BoTP DVD set comes with booklets that might list all the episodes....

If you do a web search, there's a few lists out there that correlate all of the BOTP episode names to Gatch episodes ... I still remember BOTP fondly but I do prefer Gatch, myself. Alas I can't recall any off the top of my head, especially since many of the key Gatch episodes focused on Joe weren't used in BOTP. I guess there's the race one with the cyborg, don't know what they called that in BOTP. (How's that for the laziest answer ever?!)

Race Against Disaster Rage of the Robotoids Are the two that stand out most two me The Galacy Girls is about 50/50; he dominates the first half of the episode and then disappears. There is no relationship to Gatch, or even a set viewing order, although the Gatch order can be used, the BotP production order might make more sense. If you don't like either of those, check the forums at Gatch Fanfic Juliesnn created an alternative viewing order.

CW: No worries! LOL. (I probably would have said the same thing to someone!) Thanks, Ame--I did recall the Galaxy Girls title off the top of my head. Yeah, I know there's no real connection to Gatch in relation to viewing order etc, as BoTP skipped around and left a lot of episodes out. I'll check out Julianne's list and I need to dig out the DVD's....LOL. *And is the board being wonky here or is it just me???

It's wonky, I had trouble posting. The production order is good, there's some continuity there. Julieann's is very arc intensive.

I thought I was having some problems 'cause it's raining just hard enough to mess with WiFi here!

Ok, good to know it's *not* just me. I keep getting an error when trying to post...

Well what I meant is that you can map the episode names. I know the official order of viewing is up to who you're talking to (or what book you're reading). But you can look up which episode corresponds to which. When I think of the Joe-centric ones (BC island, his illness, his death) those aren't really in BOTP. There's some illness stuff in BOTP for Jason ... the G-6 episode where he meets Don's mother?

Hi all! Okay, here are some episodes that relate to Jason. They're broken down into three categories. The first is those episodes that are true Jason-centric stories; those in which he is the lead character throughout. Next are Partially Jason-centric episodes; those episodes with significant Jason scenes, but he is not the featured character throughout. And last are Episodes With Good Jason Moments; these are stories where Jason is not the "star," but where he has moments where he stands out. These episodes include a notation of which scenes to look for. Jason-centric G-Force Defector Race Against Disaster Strike At Spectra Partially Jason-centric Awesome Ray Force, The Jason-centric in the beginning, but then he disappears until the end Conway Tape Tap, The Jason-centric in the beginning and ending, but not in the middle Galaxy Girls, The Jason-centric during the first half, but he disappears in the second half Rage of the Robotoids Jason-centric in the first half, but he's sidelined for the second half. Episodes With Good Jason Moments Awesome Armadillo, The Jason tests a new weapon, Jason confront Mark Big Robot Gold Grab Jason's solo mission to retrieve the gold, Jason fires the missile Fastest Gun In the Galaxy Jason versus Vargo Fiery Lava Giant Jason makes an ass of himself with Amelia Ghost Ship of Planet Myr Jason fires missile after missile after missile... Giant From Planet Zyr Jason and Mark in the cave Invasion of Space Center Part II Jason and Keyop's swim Rockets Out of Control Jason opens a locked door Space Safari, The Jason and Tiny search the jungle and rescue Keyop Vacation On Venus Jason saves G-Force from a nasty fall I hope these will help!

Go James!!!

Thank you James! You didn't need to do that, and I bow to your expertise! That was a big help!

I was going to suggest Jason's Battle of the Planets site, but James put it very nicely.

What about The Beast With A Sweet Tooth. Jason does save Tiny.

Suddenly I ve got this urge to watch them all

I really want to see BOTP comics... Are there many original episodes?

I was going to do that as well. For future reference: http://www.battleoftheplanets.info If you go to the listing for the different characters, it gives a description of major events to happen during the series, along with links back to those specific episodes. For example, here is the page for Jason. http://www.battleoftheplanets.info/jason.html

Great list, James! And yes, Jason's site is a great reference!

Rachel, there were 85 episodes of Battle of the Planets.

Thanks for all the links and suggestions everyone! I totally forgot about Jason's website...!

Thanks, James! I should mark this list to watch later ...
