I ought to be embarrassed, but my mind is wired in such a way that I recall
the theme song to the show "Tobor (robot backwards, get it?) The Eighth
Man".  Herewith:
 
        Verse:
        There's a prehistoric monster
        Who came from outer space
        Created by the martians
        To destroy the human race
        The FBI is helpless (I love that part)
        He's 20 stories tall
        What can we do
        Who can we call
 
        Chorus:
        Call Tobor
        The Eighth Man
        Call Tobor
        The Eighth Man
        Faster than a rocket
        Quicker than a jet
        He's the mighty robot
        He's the one to get
 
Other than that, all I recall is that Tobor had a Clark Kent-style
day-by-day alias and the animation was REALLY shitty.
 
Shamedly returning to the real world,
 
     Shawn Levy     | "Sympathy isn't what I'm after, I'm basically
                    |  almost happy, God in all His wisdom knows that at heart
