I was looking at the listing for the "X-Men" 1992 TV series at the IMdB, (Internet Movie Database), when I came across this bit of information for the episode "Repo Man". Melissa Sue Anderson is listed as the voice of Snowbird in the two Alpha Flight episodes, ("Repo Man" and "The Phoenix Saga, Part 5"). :!:

I wonder what happened? :?: One thing's for sure: she definitely couldn't have been worse than the voice for Puck! :lol:

Maybe she's mute?

I finally saw this episode. A couple of things about it were very odd:

1. All the voices sucked. (I think everyone has said this.) Especially bad were the twin's accents. At first I thought they were trying to sound asian or something!
2. Wolverine seemed to have no problem handling Alpha Flight. Lame.
3. Keeping the Heather-Mac-Logan back-story reasonably intact was an unexpected surprise.
4. Heather looked remarkably like Byrne's version. Bravo!
5. What the heck was with the twin's lightning bolts? :?
6. Shaman used his Staff of Growth. Very 8)

Overall, I'm glad I finally saw it, but it was quite forgettable really.

IIRC, it was a brief appearance of the team rescuing civilians in Athens, Greece, of all places?!? Nice shot of Snowbird flying towards the screen, with the outline of her cape used to change scenes.

I remember being so excited about Alpha's brief appearance in the Phoenix saga. It really made my day to see it! :D And I agree that it was a nice close-up shot of Snowbird.

I still haven't seen either of the episodes where AF was featured. Can anyone youtube.com them?

This file is pretty huge, and it is not public domain. However, I strongly suspect that you will find it with LimeWire by searching for "X-Men 205 Repo Man." :oops:
