The Super Globetrotters (1979)
Season 1
It’s true—to the public at large they are the clown princes of the parquet, the internationally renowned sports superstars The Globetrotters. But, unbeknownst to John and Jane Q. Sportsfan, high above the Earth orbits the Globetrotter Crime Globe, a different kind of "eye in the sky." Whenever and wherever the Crime Globe detects dastardly doings, the call goes out to the Globetrotters—Nate Branch, Liquid Man, Freddie 'Curly' Neal, Super Sphere, James 'Twiggy' Sanders, Spaghetti Man, Louis 'Sweet Lou' Dunbar, Gizmo, and Hubert 'Geese' Ausbie, and Multi Man—and they quickly ditch the b-ball court for crime-fighting.
