I was born in '74. Sometime in my childhood (could have been anywhere between the ages of 5-10, placing this thing in the late '70's or early to mid 80's), I could swear I saw a TV show that was pretty much a live action version of Superfriends. Oddly, my recollection is that it featured senior-citizen versions of the familiar heroes (although they could have just been artificially aged in one particular episode, or maybe they weren't even old at all but just seemed so to my young mind ... like I said, my memory on this is hazy). I kind of remember it being campy, showing the heroes seated around a circular table and engaging in ridiculous dialogue without doing too much of anything. And while my mind tells me that the heroes were Superman, Batman, etc., it's conceivable that they were generic ripoffs of these archetypal characters. Every once in a blue moon I'll have an odd flash of a scene from this show dance on the tip of my memory, and I'd like to find out whether this ever happened. For all I know, this could have been just a portion of a sketch comedy show or something. I know this is all extremely vague, but it's the best I can do. Any thoughts?

OK, I'm not sure if this thing ever really existed. Maybe it was just the product of some strange fever-dream, or too much sugar. But, if it ever did exist, I'm sure the good folks here can help me.
