In 1991, NBC premiered ProStars, an animated series featuring sports icons Wayne Gretzky, Michael Jordan, and Bo Jackson as crime-fighting superheroes. The show aimed to teach life lessons while showcasing the athletes' star power and futuristic sports gear. Despite the ambitious concept, ProStars only lasted one season due to underwhelming animation, writing, and voice acting. The show remains a quirky reminder of the athletes' popularity in the 90s and their portrayal as cartoon heroes trying to save the world.
