Just a minor correction needed:

It's Peter Keefe, not Peter O'Keefe.

ANN's encyclopedia entry for Peter Keefe:

Now that I've gotten so into Legendary Defender, I'm a bit curious what the original Voltron was like. Except for Pidge's old voice, I know that that is just terrible. I recall hearing rumor at some point that the voice actor did that voice at first as a joke, assuming they'd never accept something that horrible. But then whoever was in charge went "great, we'll go with that!" and he kind of needed the work.

I was interested in this, until I saw that it was 12 "select" episodes.

I think I'll just go next door and borrow his DVD steel books.

Interesting.. 2017 and still trying to catch up to 1984.
Voltron has a nostalgia factor going for it, but doesn't really stand up all that great now.

For those interested in the orignal.. great.. but don't say I didn't warn you.. Wink

They had it on Netflix streaming or disc and I tried to rewatch it. It took me like 4 days to finish an episode and I called it quits. Some of the stuff I saw as a kid was good. Actually, most of it. Voltron is terrible though.

While the official YT channel of Voltron has all 72 classic dubbed episodes, most of them are private videos.
