Never heard of it. Did it involve a giant robot fighting giant monsters with an awesome plasma sword?

Not really, but it had the whole multiple vehicles separating out then combining into one thing going on.

These were their vehicles:

It was originally titled Gatchaman in Japan, then they changed it to G-Force for the release in America.

Hmm, intriguing, but I must say not as cool as 5 freaking robot lions combining into one huge robot. It was hilarious how every episode was pretty much the same once they got over the exposition with the 1st two episodes, lol. Still good, though.

Even as kid, I remember thinking -

"Why doesn't the monster just attack the lions during the 3 minutes it takes them to form Voltron?" and "Why don't they just form the "Voltron sword" first instead of getting their butts kicked for 5 minutes?"

Like you said, every episode followed the same pattern with little deviation.

Yeah, lol. The only deviation was the monster. And I agree about the whole "umm, just form the Voltron right off the bat" thought process. I wish they had one, JUST ONE, episode where the lions got the job done. I loved how those lions looked, as a kid.

Are they going to follow this up with She-Ra? Come on Hollywood. For the love of Pete, you're bringing back the Munsters. Stop bringing back shows that sucked the first time. Who is going to watch this show? The ones who watched in the past are grown up.
