Okay, you want to talk about old cartoons... heh.

The things that came on during Saturday morning cartoons in the 70's were what I grew up with. Land of the Lost was the most fantastic show ever. It scared the snot out of me... heh.

I loved The Electric Company, which came on PBS.

And of course, I'm from the era that invented Sesame Street. Or rather, I grew up with it during its inception.

The Muppet Show was wonderful. Nice prime time family programming.

Scooby Doo, Fat Albert, and of course, Bugs Bunny. An hour and a half was devoted to Bugs Bunny every Saturday morning...

*sighs with bliss*

You have to remember, we're talking about a time before cable, when cartoons ONLY came on once a week, or on special holidays.

Hong Kong Phooey was one of my favorites... he was sooo funny! And Mr. Magoo... Jabberjaw... just about anything that Hanna Barbera did (Flinstones, Jetsons).

Superfriends gave me a headache, though... but because cartoons were in such short supply, I'd suffer through.

*grins*

When cable happened, I LOVED Fraggle Rock, even though I was in high school and wasn't supposed to be interested in muppets anymore... *cough, cough*

I don't really remember many cartoons specifically from the 80's, I was usually recovering from a Friday night outing on a Saturday morning.. ouchies.

Nineties cartoons I remember, since my kids were little then.

What-a-Mess was one that stands out... he was an Afgan puppy who was always into trouble... hehe.

Thank you for this walk down memory lane!

(and if you guys haven't seen Hong Kong Phooey, you need to see if there is any available for rent at the video store)


eek I bow to your wisdom, O misstress of the fabled seventies! and yes, I do remember quite a few of those shows! They rocked as well! You're very welcome for the walk! May you have many more, should you choose to 3nodding

WHY MUST ALL GOOD THINGS END? gonk That show was so morbidly fascinating! And the CGI was so spiffy!


stare Do you all know one of reasons why Zim ended? First off, as Slim pointed out, it was morbid. Really morbid. Like, Johnny the Homicidal Maniac morbid. It also happened to be penned in the same style as Johnny the Homicidal Maniac, which I'm sure put a few parents on edge.

Yeah but you have to admit that's what made it awesome, they should've just moved it to MTV and got it over with, it really wasn't for little kids anyway

stare It's a cheap attempt to make more money off of what used to be a genuinely good show. They've essentially killed Scooby and the gang, buried them, pissed on their graves, dug 'em back up, and raped their corpses...poor Mystery Gang...
