I don't know. I think I lost track because it went on so long (20+ 
episodes, difficult for a 10-year-old - or whatever I was), and then 
everyone at school was saying how it had finally ended and I realised 
I'd missed it. The last bit I remember was the battle with the Olmecs 
and their mask-shaped laser-ship. Quite a high body count, as I recall...

I don't understand how I missed this. Everyone I know remembers it, I've 
seen the opening titles on YouTube, but I have absolutely no memory of 
it. It looks really good; I feel robbed!
