used to wake up earlier than when i had school during the week.....

shyts sad.... the shyt my sons watch makes me think cartoons are designed to create fakkits or lames or uncreative people.

Schools too. There is no imagination to these cartoons and the lack of art programming nowadays.

Kids sleep-in saturday mornings now, getting turnt up on Friday nights, it's a culture in decline

Damn shame. Its seems like that party culture is taking kids the special moments away from being kids.

It really is sad. The end of an era, and no one seems to be fighting to preserve it. :mjcry:

I remember watching X-Men, Gargoyles, Jetsons, Bebe's Kids, all that sh*t :banderas: But kids aren't kids anymore, girls are 10 years old blowing other kids on the school bus and sh*t :manny: You think Lil' Mouse watches cartons after he does his early Saturday morning drill? :mjlol:

I also noticed that there aren't any "stay away from drugs" promotions nowadays. Or even an educational advice from cartoons anymore.
With weed on the verge of being legalized across the country in the next few years it's kind of pointless lol

My son is going to be 3 in a few months but I've had him watching shows I grew up with on youtube and netflix, it's funny how things come full circle because as a kid my favorite cartoons and toys were TMNT and Transformers, I turn on the new or OG eps of those shows he's glued to the tv. He even watched all of the 1st TMNT movie and Transformers the Movie :blessed:

Breh..he ain't lyin. I'm sorry man but the new turtles cartoon just from a quality standpoint, not talking nostalgia, but strictly quality, is a much much better show. The season finale of season 2 alone is something that turtles cartoon wouldn't even approach doing. One was made to sell toys, and that's for real. They designed the toys first then put the show out because kids wouldn't buy toys without some cartoon (that was the thinking) while the other was made to revive a franchise
