Locally, the WB and the UPN combined into "my network tv." Fox and the WB were the last two channels with Saturday morning cartoons and as we all know, Fox hasn't had anything worth watching for years, and now they can't come up with anything new so they are reairing their lamest shows. With the death of the WB for mynetworktv, the only thing they are airing is all the crappy educational shows that they aired after all the good Saturday morning cartoons.


Saturday morning, you will be missed.

Well I watched Sponge Bob Square Pants, Biker Mice from Mars and Futurama this morning and they were all great.

Do you know the truth about Sponge Bob? He was a female contraceptive once....he was flushed down. But Nickelodeon doesn't want you to know that.

They should start showing the X-Men show they had on some years back.

Not the new one where they are in high school. That one is lame.

Wow, I totally forgot about those two. Of course when I was a kid I also watched the 90's version of Ninja Turtles.

How about Captain Planet? :p

And heart. Don't forget heart. :)

you watch them then go back to sleep till after lunch

Oh, trust me, the Saturday morning cartoons have been dead for a long, long time, often times twisted beyond recognition.

Ninja Turtles, Looney Tunes, Transformers, Mighty Max, all could entertain a kid for hours upon hours of mindless drooling.

No longer.

Fucking cable.

Fucking cable.Quit your bitchin'. Saturday morning cartoons died for me in 94 when the Army pulled out of Berlin and took AFN with it.

weird because here the WB became the CW and UPN is Mynetwork.

oh, and I haven't watched Saturday morning cartoons since He-Man was on.

I'm sorry.

I know your pain.

I am Captain Planet!

Captain Planet, he's our hero. Gonna take pollution down to zero

That theme tune ruled.

Do you know the truth about Sponge Bob? He was a female contraceptive once....he was flushed down. But Nickelodeon doesn't want you to know that.

No. Spongebob is trying to seduce our children into lives of homosexuality (http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/Evils%20in%20America/Sodomy/spongebob_and_homosexuality.htm).

Too bad the show was the epitome of gay.
Luckily it came on at like 5:30, after Nick News for Kids, so I didn't have to watch it until it went to Cartoon Network.

Well I watched Sponge Bob Square Pants, Biker Mice from Mars and Futurama this morning and they were all great.

OH MY GOD?! You watched Biker Mice from Mars?! The last time I watched that show I was about 5 or 7 and it was on SABC (South African Broadcasting Corporation) when I used to live there.
Oh man...nostalga! That's it, I'm getting on BitTorrent and downloading the first series!

Subscribe to Boomerang, that'll make Saturdays holy again.

And what about Toonami? Nobody besides me complaining about Miguzi's suckishness?

Oh, and just for the record, Captain Planet is awesome, I grew up on that :)

Yeah, really. Nobody shows Rocket Robin Hood anymore.

Yeah, really. Nobody shows Rocket Robin Hood anymore.

now that one new to me

yes its dead
were are the old cartoons

What ever happened to Wiley Coyote, Daffy Duck, Tom & Jerry, Bugs Bunny, and Porky Pig? :( Those were great cartoons.

they all gone :(
i miss them

Tom & Jerry is sometimes hidden in Cartoon Netwokr, the rest were killed for newer cartoons that follow all the new guidelines for cartooning - no smoking, no excessive crossdressing, no drinking, etc.

I hate when anyone declares something "dead" that its gone and completly unsaveable. The cartoons arn't aimed at us, how do we know how much kids enjoy them? I know my nephew would much rather watch Dexter's lab then tom & jerry.

Yeah, really. Nobody shows Rocket Robin Hood anymore.

OMFG! I remember that show... :eek:


Rocket Robin Hood: What happened?
Maid Marion: He was hurting you so I stopped him.
Rocket Robin Hood: You stopped him? But how?
Maid Marion: I gear stripped him or whatever.
Rocket Robin Hood: You stripped his gears... You stripped his gears? But how?
Maid Marion: I just used my compact, my lipstick, and my mirror. Now my make-up is a mess and I can't make myself look pretty for you because you won me in a contest and...
Rocket Robin Hood: Maid Marion, you're wonderful.
Maid Marion: I am?
Rocket Robin Hood: Yes, you are. Never underestimate the power of a woman with make-up.


sigh.. had some really good ones back then... Banana Spits , Electro Woman, Shazam, Isis, Loony Toons, Fat Albert, Superfriends...

even the late 70's and early 80's had some good ones. like Mighty Orbots, silverhawks, etc...

now they all suck...

Especially when you actually go back and watch the trappings of your youth and realize just how stupid you were back then.
I remember watching that D&D cartoon when i was a kid and thinking to be the most awesome thing ever. I saw an episode of it a couple months ago and it made me squirt blood out of my eyes from the sheer, compacted awfulness.

and thus you see the difference between a show for kids and a show for adults. :D

God I miss watching saturday morning cartoons. the Fox channel had like...power rangers and all that crap, abc had bugs bunny and the looney tunes. And I forget the channel, but it was awesome, because they had...TMNT!!!!! Oh how i miss the oringinal cartoon :(


I went out and bought the TMNT movie(#1) last night on DVD for only 7.50 im stoked..i've watched it thrice already :D

You mean the coyote can no longer blow himself, fall off a cliff, or get smashed by a truck while trying to capture the roadrunner? Please Noooo! :( ***kicks sand…runs off crying***

My significant other just wanted me to add that there was no resentment greater than that of having Rocket Robin Hood pre-empted for the "boring" Lunar landing back in '69.

Of course, my partner was six at the time...

Do you know the truth about Sponge Bob? He was a female contraceptive once....he was flushed down. But Nickelodeon doesn't want you to know that.

ROFLMAO!!!


My I please sig that?!? Please???

GOD DAMNIT!!

I remember waaay back in the day, I'd wake up early Saturday morning (like 5:30) to watch Thundercats, then Silverhawks, then Voltron. I didn't really care for Silverhawks, but it was on in between two shows I really did like. By the time Voltron was over my sisters would be up and wanting to watch My Little Pony or Strawberry Shortcake or some crud like that. And since sisters are waaay more annoying then brothers when they whine ;) my parents let them watch their stupid shows to shut them up. :D

Yeah, saturday cartoons are dead now. I just wasted 3 hours of my life watching those crappy cartoons because I had nothing better to do. But anyway, does anyone remember the cartoon Captain Simeon and the Space Monkeys or Monkey Magic?

Okay, just for you, then JuNii -

Thanks... I needed that.

I got stuck watching Ed, Edd, and Eddie when I was waiting at the doctor's office once. That is one of the worst cartoons I've ever seen. Anyone who watched that kind of stuff when I was a kid would have gotten made fun of until the end of time. Compare that to He-Man or, hell, even Top Cat or Magilla Gorilla.

I think if Saturday morning cartoons aren't dead, someone should put them out of their misery. [Grabs a .30-06]

heck, the new adventures of Mighty Mouse was better than the Ed's

LOL, I always found Mighty Mouse too disturbing to look at, but I agree.

Man I miss Top-Cat. That was a great show. What I really miss is like the Loony Toons, or Road Runner. That was my favorite.

:-) Maybe the generations will cycle themselves around. Generation Z or whatever this is now might grow up saying "What the heck were we thinking" and they'll make better cartoons that I can see with my own grandkids of Generation [something after Z].
