Frankenstein Jr. and The Impossibles is an animated superhero comedy that aired on CBS.
Buzz Conroy is a young inventor who created Frankenstein Jr. But as where Mary Shelley's literary monster was a corpse brought to life, Jr. is purely robotic. Together, Buzz and Frankenstein Jr. battle the forces of evil, with Jr. activated by a beam transmitted from Buzz's ring to an antenna on Jr.'s head.
The Impossibles are a trio of rockers who double as superheroes, presumably created to capitalize on the success of The Beatles cartoon on ABC. It may also be the result of an aborted plan entertained at the time for Hanna-Barbera to turn the Beach Boys into a Saturday morning cartoon.
