It was wonderful to remember my childhood memories because he is my favorite rap singer. I wanted to be like him when I was a young kid. I wanted to be like him for sing for microphone to dance all the time at my home when I was growing up.
And I mean it when I call this the worst cartoon ever but possibly not for the reasons you think.
As far as the story goes it's pretty basic and dare I say it had a good message. It starred MC Hammer himself in a bunch of live action clips that would introduce and close out the show. Each episode dealt with some aspect of life and had a lesson to be learned. MC Hammer stared as Stanley, a young man who taught dance at the youth center. But one day was given a pair of magical talking shoes which turned him into Hammerman, a musical superhero. Again, not necessarily a bad premise.
But then why is this the worst cartoon ever? The animation, or lack thereof, is terrible. Sure it's stylized in that experimental 90's way that a lot of places were trying. But the animation is just so janky that it's impossible to watch it without getting a migraine. This honestly looks like the kind of stop motion animation you made as a kid but more colorful and angular. It looks cheap. The animation is choppy. It's nigh unwatchable.
This is an experiment that should never be repeated. Ever. There are episodes floating around on youtube and various streaming sites for free. Watch it only out of curiosity and then stop after maybe five minutes because it's starting to hurt your eyes.
Good idea. Terrible execution.

In today's world of giant robots slaying mutant roaches with mysterious ray guns, people sometimes forget the simpler pleasures of an animated cartoon show based on the life and times of mega-star MC Hammer. Who was the real star of this show, Hammer, or his magical, talking dance-shoes? The world may never know. I know in my heart of hearts that this odd assemblage of pop culture and nonsense had some sort of message, but i really can't figure out what that was. Perhaps if one is bold enough to dream big dreams and reach for the stars, then they too can find a pair of magical dance shoes that will wisk them away to a world where crime and evil can be "danced" out of town. Fight on, sweet hammer, fight on.
Hammerman! Hammer! Hammerman! Hammer! Whenever there's a crime the goons are gonna do time They all better beware, cause the Hammerman will be there! Here's how it started A long time ago The legend of the hammer and how it began to grow! He was given magical shoes from a hip hop mo-town dude! Together they had power, they stood up for what was right But Gramps was getting old and he couldn't keep up the fight (Right) So Gramps and his granddaughter they went out on the road (Searchin) To find the man they knew could tell who was worthy of the load! They met a guy named Sally (Stan) He was dancing every night! He helped those kids play everyday His heart was out of sight! So Gramps opened up the bag, and took out the magical shoes He set them on the ground and they soon began to groove (right) The shoes knew at once they had finally found their man They hopped right on his feet and he became HAMMERMAN HAMMERMAN, HAMMER HAMMERMAN, HAMMER HAMMERMAN, HAMMER HAMMERMAN, HAMMER OH YEAH!
As much as the theme song is terrible, it's catachy as hell, but this is the only plus on the show.
The animation is plastic and the voice acting is HORRENDOUS, and it's boring, but it saved from be a 1 because it's just harmless, probably the 34th worst cartoon in my opinion.
