The Super Globetrotters
 
(1979) TV series
 

Genre:
Animation + Family + Sport + Comedy

Synopsis:
It is a spin-off series from Hanna-Barbera's Harlem Globetrotters, this show featured the basketball team Harlem Globetrotters as undercover superheroes, who would transform from their regular forms by entering magic portable lockers carried in Globetrotter. Each member of the group had individual super powers and overall, all members of the group could fly. The Globetrotters received their missions from a basketball-styled talking satellite called the Crimeglobe (voice by Frank Welker). Most episodes culminate in the Super Globetrotters challenging the villain and his henchmen to a basketball game for whatever treasure or device they sought, the civilian Globetrotters being trounced by the villains' super-powers in the first half, and then using their own super-powers (often at the admonition of the Crimeglobe) to save the day in the second half. Meadowlark Lemon is not in the group.
