Galaxy High was an 80s cartoon which centred upon the antics of two humans: a girl named Aimme and a guy named Doyle, who attend a high school in outer space named 'Galaxy High'. Thus, the two couldn't be any more different. Before they arrived, Aimme was not having the best of both worlds, whilst Doyle was the popular and cool one, but by the time they arrive on another planet, Doyle and Aimme's lives are reversed- hence, she was now well loved and respected by the kids at Galaxy High and Doyle was very much dismissed as an idiot and is subjected to various taunts by a bully going by the name of Beef Bunk and his bully cronies. They of whom go out of their way to make Doyle's life as a student hell on earth- no make that, hell on galaxy high. Though all is not lost as he eventually befriends a six arm geek, Milo De Venus.
The school itself has its interesting set of alien characters in all shapes and sizes, all with numerous sets of personalities.
This cartoon isn't so much a depiction of what life would be like living and working in another planet; it is mainly about the trials and tribulations of two human beings in Doyle and Aimme and their attempts in fitting in with the so-called 'crowd' and acclimatising to their new found life in outer space.
I am still bewildered as to why this show didn't last as long as it should've done- in fact, it is bewildering, as well as a travesty to say the least that many great 80s cartoons only lasted a few seasons.
This was funny, fun and very, very original and the characters and the design of the characters and the futuristic settings were the most creative and inventive around. Saturday mornings were never the same again once Galaxy High and many other cartoons went off the air during the 1980s and early 90s. The synth title theme tune with the vocoder-like vocals rocked too.
Overall, Galaxy High was a great animated show and one worth purchasing on DVD. Though I wished this would come out in the shops here in the UK.
