Dec. 7th, 2006 05:00 amOkay, back when I was a Star Wars geek (oh dear...), I used to swear that "I've seen everything but Droids! I wanna see Droids!" Droids, of course, being one of the cartoon spinoffs that ran in the mid 1980s.
Except, the truth is, I've seen Droids! I watched the opening and... despite not remembering it watching the program before, the opening song and whole sections of the animation were like a trigger. Suddenly, I clearly remembered watching it on Global at my grandmother's condo as a kid.
I've had scents react like memory triggers before, but this is the first time I've ever had such a pronounced one for something visual.
Oh. And that theme song? So 80s.
