This show debuted smack dab in the middle of my childhood cancer debacle, so it's kind of included in the haze of memories and feelings of that time. It was unlike anything else on TBS and 12 year old me watched as much as I could.

Loved this show growing up! The SWAT Kats were indeed vigilantes, former pilots working for Commander Feral, however they were thrown out and made to work in a scrap yard after a disastrous and wreckless disobeying of his direct orders in pursuing Dark Kat. While in the scrap yard, they somehow find enough technology to not only build a fighter jet and other equipment, but stuff superior to everything that the force is using. It was an absolutely ridiculous premise that rarely ever actually got dealt with, aside from Commander Feral calling them vigilantes, because they were. Of course, you're made to see him as the jerk (and he is), but his original kicking them out of the force was justified.

Rock a Doodle was one of the first movies I remember leaving the theater actively disliking. (The first was Congo)

I used to watch it on VHS quite regularly for a couple years in the early 90s.
