Back when Saturday morning cartoons was good.
You guys see the crap that they put on TV nowadays? I watched cartoons in the late 80s early 90s. When they still had shows like Transformers, Ninja Turtles(original cartoon), GI Joe, Mighty Max, and the list goes on. I hate to admit it, but if you ignore that gay "heart" dude, I even enjoyed Captain Planet.
What did you guys watch as a kid? I'm trying to remember some of the old quality shows. |

Bucky'O'Hare DWD kicked ass DBZ I also like most of the superhero shows - Batman, Superman, Spiderman, X-Men. Some of the new CGI and next generation ones of these are OK, but not the same. |

Hong Kong Fooey, Scooby Doo, Justice League, Looney Tunes Early in the morning, though, the local stations had some 60s classics on: Mighty Heroes with Rope Man and Diaper Man, among others, and Courageous Cat and Minute Mouse |

That followed by an hour of simpson's on fox was an incredible entertainment block. I got so pissed when my local fox station started splitting up the simpson's with the drew carey show or married with children. |
Re: Back when Saturday morning cartoons was good.
A tremndous amount of the previously mentioned cartoons appear on Boomerang . Check it out. I haven't seen them do it in awhile, but occasionally they'll have a Flashback weekend, where it's 1969 or 1973. Really spooky, plus you get to see how truly awful some things were, plus how good other things were.
As for modern cartoon, Spongebob is a classic. Every bit as good as the classics from Warner Brothers, it also works for adults, who get some of the references kids don't. Little ones love Dora The Explorer and Go Diego Go. Avatar: The Last Airbender is a tremdously involved continuing storyline series. And Jimmy Netron and Fairly Oddparents stand up pretty well. You get to see/hear an awful lot of Nick when the computer is in the same room as the TV. |
