History Franchise / JemAndTheHolograms

* ''Film/JemAndTheHolograms'': The 2015 LiveActionAdaptation of the cartoon. It is mostly InNameOnly and lacks the campiness or adventure of the source. It is about a teenage girl named Jerrica who becomes an InstantWebHit when her younger sister Kimber uploads a video of her singing onto Website/YouTube. This leads to her and her sisters getting a record deal. Unlike the cartoon, it is a ComingOfAgeStory. The film took away a lot of the more sci-fi elements of the cartoon and The Misfits are mostly AdaptedOut. Due to poor reception ''Jem and the Holograms'' was a BoxOfficeBomb and ended up a StillbornFranchise.
* ''ComicBook/JemAndTheHolograms'': The 2015 comic book ContinuityReboot by Creator/IDWPublishing. It was developed separately from the film of the same name. It is much more similar to the source but [[SettingUpdate modernizes it]] to being in the TheNewTens (much like the film), redesigns the characters, and has several differences from the cartoon. It's somewhat more realistic than ''Jem'' cartoon but still keeps the same general aesthetic. Its development team includes [[AscendedFanboy fans of]] ''Jem'' (including comic book artist Sophie Campbell) and thus that keeps it truer to the source than other reboots often are. The comic is [[AudienceShift aimed at an older audience]] than the cartoon or film but is still family-friendly. Jerrica is a young woman in a pop band with her three sisters who suffers from PerformanceAnxiety. She can sing around family, but around anyone else she freezes up. When she and her sisters find out about their late father's supercomputer, Synergy, they use her to disguise Jerrica as "Jem" so that she can sing without feeling anxiety.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Jem}}'': The original 1980s {{Sixty Five Episode Cartoon}}. It was initially called ''Jem'' but has been renamed to ''Jem and the Holograms'' in the 2010s due to [[IconicCharacterForgottenTitle everyone calling it that anyway]]. It is about a woman named Jerrica who has an alter ego as the hit pop star Jem, of the band Jem and The Holograms. Jerrica has a boyfriend named Rio who gets mixed up in a TwoPersonLoveTriangle with her when he falls for her alter ego. Along with her friends and her boyfriend, Jem goes on adventures, sings music, and goes through a lot of {{Soap Opera}}-eque drama (usually caused by The Misfits). Despite being aimed at little girls, the cartoon handles a lot of mature topics such as [[YourCheatingHeart infidelity]], [[VerySpecialEpisode drug addiction]], and ParentalAbandonment.

''Jem and The Holograms'' is known for its ''very'' 1980s aesthetic. Even modern day incarnations keep the EightiesHair and 80s fashion. It is also one of the few franchises to get out of the GirlShowGhetto. It has a PeripheryDemographic of both boys and [[LGBTFanbase LGBT adults]]. The franchise was considered dead, though well-remembered amongst 80s kids, until in the early 2010s it was revived with a film and a comic book.

!Works in this franchise are:
* The ''Jem'' doll line: The cartoon was [[MerchandiseDriven created to market]] a line of fashion dolls for girls. The doll line was discontinued after a few years (and the cartoon subsequently canceled) due to toy sales not being up to expectations. Despite this, there are still gets adult-aimed collectable dolls being released to this day. The doll line {{avert|ed trope}}s ClarkesLawForGirlsToys by making it clear that there is science behind Jem's abilities and not magic.
