The Plastic Man Comedy/Adventure Show is an animated television series produced by Ruby-Spears Productions from 1979 to 1981; it was shown right after Super Friends on the ABC Network.[1]
The show featured various adventures of the DC Comics superhero Plastic Man. The anthology show included several components, including Plastic Man, Baby Plas, Plastic Family, Mighty Man and Yukk, Fangface and Fangpuss, and Rickety Rocket.[2]
By January 1980, it was cut down to 90 minutes, dropping off Rickety Rocket, amidst low ratings.[3] By the 1980–81 season, the format was reduced to a half-hour and it was retooled into The Plasticman/Baby Plas Super Comedy alongside two other Ruby-Spears productions Thundarr the Barbarian and Heathcliff and Dingbat.[4] The show was repackaged by Arlington Television into 130 half-hour episodes, and released into national, first-run-off-network daily syndication in 1984. The Plastic Man Comedy Show was produced and directed by Steve Whiting and featured a live-action "Plastic Man", played by Taylor Marks.
