Orbitty from the updated Jetsons series is truly underrated.
He doesn't appear in the 1990 Jetsons movie or in the 1992 NES game Cogswell's Caper! Is he not part of the family? I don't see why they stopped using him. He can bounce from wall-to-wall using his spring shoes and he can change color to express his emotions. Those are some pretty amazing features if you ask me.

so he was a character from the 1980's revival of the series and not part of the original 1960's 24 episodes package?

You got it.

I always loved Orbitty. I don't know why he got such a bum rap.

Yeah, he was an essential part of the show. They should've done more with him.

I would first add one of my favorite underrated characters, Omega Supreme. He didn't get much attention in the G1 series save for a few episodes. Later on in other series and in video games he received more attention. But during the series first run, I watched every episode hoping he would show up. Instead we always got Devastator or the Dino Bots. Bleh.
You love this signature.

I always thought The Great Gazoo was under appreciated as well. |

Well, he DID have an arrogant side. But he was helpful too.

Here's a villain that was never given a chance to live up to his potential in the original Masters of the Universe cartoon:
Count Marzo He finally got more attention in the 200X series reboot, but he could definitely have used more screen time in the original series, perhaps as a rival to Skeletor (much like Hordak). You love this signature.

Secret Squirrel and Morocco Mole when they made a 90s comeback.
