Lazer Tag Academy
Lazer Tag Academy is an animated television series inspired by Worlds of Wonder's Lazer Tag that was created by Ruby-Spears Productions. The series aired on NBC from September 13 to December 6, 1986. It was later shown in reruns under the new title Lazer Patrol on the Sci Fi Channel as part of Sci Fi Cartoon Quest. At the same time, another laser tag related series, DiC's live-action Photon series aired the same year in syndication.
Jamie Jaren, the thirteen-year-old Lazer Tag champion who possesses curious powers over the energy emitted from her Lazer Tag StarLyteâ„¢ unit, chases her evil ancestor Draxon Drear to the year 1987, to protect Beth Jaren, a distant ancestor of Jamie. Drear reasons that by kidnapping Beth and changing history, Jamie will never be born, and no one will be able to stop the evil Drear.
Draxon Drear's plan to turn the Jaren kids into mutant Skuggs backfires when these volatile creatures damage the transmitter mechanism. Everyone in the world except the Jaren kids gets Skugg-ized, so it falls to them to reverse the effects and return the world to normality.
