Meant To Entertain Only Those With Super-Low Expectations

To say that "Captain Fathom" was pretty dreadful entertainment (on all counts) would truly be an understatement like no other.

Presented in "Syncro-Vox"-style (where real human mouths are superimposed onto the faces of the cartoon characters) - This 2-D "limited animation" show was unbelievably inferior beyond compare.

From its super-dull stories, to its repeatedly recycled images - "Captain Fathom" was, indeed, one of those easily forgettable, low-budget productions (from yesteryear) that I don't think could even entertain a child.
