I agree completely. This was a test of your ability to Google. Sorry that I wasted my time on this on.

E. COYOTE & ROADRUNNER (12), BATMAN & ROBIN (11) and many others. Were those all stabs in the dark or did they go down a logical path?
Completely agree--wonder twin powers, activate!BrianMac wrote: ↑Mon Dec 09, 2019 12:26 am This was like an early Christmas present from Matt Gaffney to us Gen Xers. If you were born before or after that, you were probably scratching your head. But if you grew up watching Saturday morning cartoons in the late 70's and early 80's, you are very familiar with the Wonder Twins. You may not remember their names were Zan and Jayna, but you probably remember their pet monkey, Gleek!
I got a big kick out of this one. Thanks for the nostalgia, Matt!
I watched them on Saturday mornings as a child, too. Which is probably why I figured this one out away from the grid.BrianMac wrote: ↑Mon Dec 09, 2019 12:26 am This was like an early Christmas present from Matt Gaffney to us Gen Xers.

I found the same web page of cartoon duos and Wonder Twins was not there. We have had unfairness before when we had "famous" associated with comedienne Margaret Cho, Peruvian soprano Yma Sumac, and TV organizer Marie Kondo). And then there is the NFL referees week in and week out.howardl wrote: ↑Mon Dec 09, 2019 7:26 am Posting on Monday morning. This is the first time this has happened to me: I solved the grid, I saw the trick to the meta, I was looking for a WON/WIN cartoon duo. I couldn't think of one. I did an internet search and came to a page of "most famous cartoon duos" (of which there were 81) and there was no mention of WONder tWINs. I submitted, almost certain it wasn't right, "Wonder woman and WInnie the Pooh." Does anyone agree with my criticism that the answer is too obscure to be fair? (after posting, I'm coming back to edit and note that others do agree with this.)
