MY THOUGHTS:
Jem is really “truly outrageous!” I loved Jem and the Holograms when I was little and I love that I can re-live the series now. I actually can’t wait for my daughter to be old enough to watch and appreciate Jem with me! This box set is 65 episodes full of Jem and her friends.
If you have never seen Jem and The Holograms before, it is a girl show about a group of friends who sing, design clothes, and just have fun together. Now since there has to be an enemy, there are The Misfits and The Stingers who are always trying to steal from Jem and her friends. Oh and did I mention that Jem has a dual personality where she turns from Jerrica to Jem through using the power of Synergy! Yes she touches her magical earrings and voilah she is a pop star!
I remember for my fifth birthday I wanted Jem and The Holograms so bad, but my mom went into labor with my brother. My party was canceled but my dad came through and bought me Jem and her rocker stage (at least I think it was her stage!) I was so excited and remember thinking how cool it would be to have pink hair with magical red earrings!
This show may be a little cheesy to watch now because of the animation and 80’s clothes they wear, but it is a true girl classic and I don’t remember there being anything inappropriate either.
