Where the Captain planet with everybody meme comes from

Captain Planet and the Planeteers was an animated environmental superhero series that aired on TBS starting in 1990, created by Ted Turner and Barbara Pyle. The iconic ring-summoning sequence where each Planeteer calls out their element before Captain Planet appears became the basis for this meme format.

Common mistakes with this blank

  • Writing a caption that explains the whole joke instead of letting the Captain planet with everybody image do part of the work.
  • Placing text over the most expressive part of the image, especially faces, gestures, signs, or the main action.
  • Using three different ideas in one meme. This template works better when it points at one clear situation.
  • Exporting before checking the meme at phone size. If the smallest words blur together, shorten the caption first.
