'''Note:''' This is not to be confused with Goodtimes Enterprises. Not to mention that early GoodTimes releases from 1984-85 did not have an onscreen logo; it generally cut straight to the film. It did have a print logo, which served as the basis for our first logo. | '''Note:''' This is not to be confused with Goodtimes Enterprises.

'''Availability:''' Pretty much extinct, seen on the infamous ''Wulin Warriors'', an American iteration of the Taiwanese series. The show was pulled after two episodes due to negative reviews, with remaining episodes hosted on AOL Kids before the service closed. | |||
'''Editor's Note:''' The show debuted a year after GoodTimes filed for bankruptcy, though it is possible the show was in production while the company was still operating. | |||
