Why do Saturday morning cartoons SUCK!!

[DapperDiverge]

I mean they used to be so good when we were kids, am I right? I mean what the hell happened... now I can't even have a bowl of boo-berry cereal and watch some sweet cartoons in the morning anymore... :(

I feel for these kids today...I know I'm not the only college kid that watches cartoons so c'mon.

Sitting on the couch singing that song every Saturday morning at the top of our lungs was a weekly ritual with us. Breakfast cooking on the stove and the dog chasing the cat and the baby in her stroller chasing the dog and the stereo on full blast and the neighbors pounding on the floor upstairs........it was perfect chaos.

I so miss Saturday mornings.............for more than just the cartoons.

[Justin]

i remember the bugs and daffy hour at 11 am. Damn it bring it back

[sjp]

its because creators now lack the creativity of the tmnt, ghostbusters, and the sorts.

or perhaps they do it on purpose.

[TonsOfFun]

I love cartoons - even now. Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends is fantastic. So is spongebob. I miss Animaniac's to. All classic cartoons that have appeared while I've been an adult!

Yay for cartoons.

Looney Toons are still the classic. When they have those 24 hr things on one the channels on bank holidays, it makes it worth having a TV - just!

They could put a pile of dogshit on TV on Saturday mornings for all I care. Saturday mornings are for sleeping in, lazy morning sex, then reading the paper and drinking coffee in bed until at least noon.
