    Man, getting up at the crack of dawn, getting a giant bowl of diabetes, and parking in front of my mom's old ass Curtis Mathis console. Voltron, the Saturday Supercade, Force Five, reruns of Wonder Bug, Photon, and a bunch of brain rotting crap too numerous to even list. And I loved every goddamn minute of it. Weekday afternoons were pretty sweet, too, though. Transformers, G.I. Joe, Thundercats, Robotech, Inspector Gadget.

      I remember Loony Tunes and since my dad knew a little English at the time we both use to watch it together! Sure looking back on some of those episodes I can see why (IMO) about 25% of those cartoons would NEVER be seen today because of hot topics (politics, alcohol/tobacco use, with a dash of racial stereotypes), but even then as a kid I had enough brains and education to separate fact from fiction. Now we have groups and committees to cry bloody murder instead of expecting parents to teach there kids any type of common sense. Why put the responsibility on the parents of those kids? When I was a kid sometimes the family would spend Saturday mornings watching cartoons together, especially when they had a 2 or 3 hour block of Loony Tunes and the like like Tom and Jerry (yes, there's a lot to go in there too)... TODAY because of some of these groups, now kids RARELY speak to ANY family members under the same roof! Instead EVERY member of the family stays in there own room and communicate PURELY through text messages and they're telling me that this is better NOW than before when the whole family could sit TOGETHER IN THE SAME ROOM albeit for only and hour or two!

      Yeah, my mom used to watch cartoons with me all the time. She actually really liked Garfield and the Peanuts because she read the comic strips every day. She also really liked Bugs Bunny and Tom and Jerry. We used to sit and watch horror movies and stuff like The Terminator and Alien. The fucking moral guardians have utterly ruined everything fun in the world. Puritanism at its finest, led by worthless shitheads like Billy Graham and Pat Robertson. She watched me play Mortal Kombat. Watched me pull some guy's fucking spine out. Guess what? She went "Oh, god, that's gross." but never said "Oh, that's just too much for my baby to handle!". Of course I was like 17 when it came out, but still.

The guy in this video said people can just watch a good cartoon on cable or the internet. Not everyone has money for cable tv and/or the internet to watch a quality cartoon show. It should be on basic television.

The world now sucks, and commercials are tiring and unoriginal. The 80's were indeed the days!

      +crusty21 Yep, that pretty much describes my life. Oh, and I should clarify something - when I said above that "I have money to buy stuff," I meant not having to be at the financial mercy of your parents. I didn't mean being a consumer and buying crap I don't need. That's another thing - school teaches you to become a consumer and a debt slave. It does not teach you how to invest. Screw school.

      I think the last few points touch on this well, between the proliferation of more TV channels and cable and sat. TV with cartoon ONLY channels and so on, i feel like "saturday morning" would have been the cheapest block to replace (and there was likely rules that forced the educational shows to go on during time periods where kids WOULD watch, and not like 3AM or something).

      As a child of the 80s, it wasn't as great as it is made out to be. Sure the cartoons, music, low-brow action movies were all top notch...when you could get it. Truth is we were all bored as fuck most of the time because ALL that entertainment was expensive (except TV). We didn't have RUclips and all the other free entertainment on the internet. I had to scrimp and save to buy an album. I'm in my 40s and I am _still_ getting around to buying albums I couldn't afford as a kid. Hell, my first TV wasn't even in color. XD

I always wore a baseball cap (had about 13 of them) and carried a baseball glove with me.. I dreamed of being an Air Force F-15 pilot and maybe playing in the Major leagues ....... Childhood will always be some of the best times in my life... I did joined the military and served 3 combat tours to Iraq... lost many good friends and continued on with the fight without them.... but life has not been the same without them, and i have to live with that .. but I will always recall the times when life was simpler and fun... when being innocent presented itself with a universe of possibilities and dreams that defeated Cobra and serpentor... when gargamel never found the smurfs... and when the ninja turtles always beat shredder!!!...

      It was a very different time. I think that while things like Cow and Chicken have aged poorly there are some genuinely beautiful examples of episodes of Dexter's Lab, Johnny Bravo and the original PowerPuff Girls that are stand out examples of fun, engaging, even really smart writing, even if they can also be crude and simple at times.

      No, Cartoons are crap these days. and don't think i'm a 90's kid, because cartoons where good into the early-mid 2000's too- you don't see amazing, quirky, and inquire shows like courage the cowardly dog(an personal favorite of mine), grimm adventures of billy and mandy, powerpuff girls, johnny bravo, dexter's laboratory, ed edd n eddy, etc. Yeah there's an few exceptions like gravity falls which are amazing...but that's just a few.

    • @TadpoleTea
      @TadpoleTea 7 лет назад +6

      Simple was the way i loved cartoons honestly...a great example of this is courage the cowardly dog- it featured complicated backstorys, Inquire characters, witty humor and even pretty damn deep moments that can make you either feel bad for some characters or cry. It was an amazing cartoon that will never be- and shouldn't be replicated...yet it was simple. A simple concept, just like what a real cartoon should be in my opinion.

      @kiko485 7 лет назад +4

      Goatmon I would have to agree with you on that. Around the mid 2000's Saturday morning blocks started going downhill fast. It all started with channel/block names being changed (like when Fox Box became "Toonzai" for example) and then decent shows were being cancelled or taken off the air completely, and replaced with shitty and uninteresting shows. Things pretty much sucked after that honestly. Sometimes I envy the 80's kids, and people who vividly remember the early 90's because they had better shows, and less regulations during those days. Must have been nice...

Even MTV (usually viewed at your rich pals house) was good back then. We went outside to play handball/stickball/hoops or broke out the coleco vision, Atari, NES or SMS to play with your buds.

    Kids can't be kids any more. They took away the cartoons, the free time from homework, the rainbow, the right to run crazy around the neighborhood, and the right to play with toy guns. You could walk into any airport gate, deliver newspapers on a bike, play tackle football and go fishing. On a second thought we're lucky to have survived childhood back then!

How fucked is that??? The American dream is to actually be a politician. That way you can be a greasy pedophile and a liar and extort money from the people and get away with (literally) murder. Not to mention that cops serve them not us (in case your heads have been up your asses for you to not know tgis.) What do they REALLY do for us? Not a fucking thing.

I was a fan of the series for years so I was excited as fuck. LOL Too bad so much of it was edited like those god awful swimsuits in the bath scenes or the use of "tea" instead of sake. hehe Good times though! I miss seeing Gundam Wing too! And Big O! If it wasn't for Cartoon Network airing those shows we wouldn't see anime so readily available on TV or so popular with the masses! 😍

      Not the good ones. They didn't have Super Friends, The (original) Amazing Spider Man, Thundarr, He-Man, or Transformers as they were watching the stuff in the late 80s, to mid 90s that was largely terrible save for X-Men. You also forget that Millennials were born from roughly 1985 to 2004 so the majority of them don't know the earlier stuff that Gen X-ers (1965-1984) would be familiar with. They probably had no idea as to what was like when Soul Train came on which meant that cartoons were kaput for the week.
      Not to mention you forget that Saturday morning cartoons were a staple since the 1960s.

    • @mlk27743
      @mlk27743 7 лет назад +3

      Absolutely correct. The best cartoons were from the late 60's - 70's. the animation was better and there was a story and sometimes at the end of the cartoon there would be a character asking/telling you the moral of the story - i.e. He-Man, She-Ra. M.A.S.K. . In the 80's the animation style changed. Even in the 90's the stories were full of sick humor or violence - I prefer my generations cartoons as I was born in the early 70's the cartoons and even tv sitcoms were better than today's. That's why Malcolm in the Middle focused on growing up in 80's & the Goldbergs as well. It was a simpler time to be a kid.

    I think all of your reasons here are spot on! Saturday morning cartoons were a highlight of most of our lives is you are over 30. Today I believe kids really suffer from the instant gratification method of how cartoons are provided to them. Having to wait all week to see the shows you love really teaches patience, a trait that is in short supply in today's world.

    It's just not the same without Saturday morning cartoons. They gave us something to look forward to every week. The anticipation was always part of the fun. Sitting in front of the TV eating a bowl of Froot Loops or Count Chocula, up early enough to catch the end of the US Farm Report, was a special kind of fun. Even in the 80's and 90's, despite more afternoon cartoons on networks like FOX, there were once-a-week cartoons that you only saw if you were up on Saturday morning. At least I now know why Saturday mornings are full of what basically amount to animal documentaries and news programs that don't even remotely resemble kids' programming. I guess most couldn't pull off what Animaniacs did - it was an educational cartoon disguised as a non-educational cartoon. Tiny Toons and Garfield and Friends were also good at that.

    I was so happy when the CW pushed on through with Saturday morning cartoons. And I was 26 at the time! However, I still looked forward to shows like Yugioh, Dragon Ball Z, and shows like that. One Saturday morning I woke up, turned on the TV, and lo and behold I saw a bunch of animals pouncing around with people giving random ass facts about them I didn't care to know. I remember thinking to myself, "Where's the 'toons at man?!?!" Hasn't been the same since then. There's nothing like the old days.

    • @hydrolito

      They had animals on TV in the old days also Rin Tin Tin, Lassie, King on Sargent Preston, Gentle Ben, Flipper, Westerns with cows and horses, sometimes with bears and wolves. Tarzan had apes, elephants, lions, snakes and crocodiles.
