RIP Saturday Morning Cartoons

[Roman Brady]

Plenty of that old stuff is on Netflix breh

like what brah my netflix only has xmen

 

[Roman Brady]

youtube has all that shyt and many other video sites,

I am talking about a full season of episodes, there is nothing of that of cops, centurions, dino ryders, exo squad and so on and so forth

the video games today are more advanced than the cartoons we used to watch back in the day.

you are missing the point

 

[???]

you would have been better off saying they have state of the art videogames, so cartoons are more interactive experience. No way a 9 year old is hunting for porn unless hes a rapist in waiting

dude, they are watching that shyt... what planet are you living on homeboy? you stuck in the 90s! these kids today know way more than you when you were young.

 

[???]

you are missing the point

dude, a lot of network tv isn't good anymore, sorry. nobody cares about that shyt, let those without cable/internet watch pbs or something.

 

[Kingshango]

Thanks for giving me and many others a reason to wake up early as hell on a Saturday to watch some animated piff.


Now, on to Netflix to watch some of these shows I forgot existed.

dude everybody is on the internet, i even see kids watching bullshyt in public libraries, free internet kiosks are everywhere now dude.

video games have also taken over cartoons/comic books for a long time now.

Yeah but there are still parts of the country that are on dial up or DSL networks, they aren't going to have the ability or desire to stream everything. Then of course there are families who can't afford high speed networks. Let's not act like everyone in our country has access to the shyt.

That 1994 Iron Man and Fantastic Four block was classic underground shyt. It wasn't on the major channels and you had to be up by 6AM to catch it

I'm hip. I was like when I first seen the shyt.

Used to wake up every Saturday for that shyt and talk to my friends about it and some of them had no idea what I was talking about. It was like some secret handshake shyt

That train started years ago when I woke up and I saw the news on ABC and CBS instead of the cartoons I was used to seeing. It's been going downhill ever since. I get that cartoon network and Nick and Disney are leaders in that space now but there's something to be said about cartoons on non cable networks

When did ABC & CBS stop airing Saturday morning Cartoons? I didn't realize that The CW was the only network still airing Saturday morning Cartoons

CBS stopped airing original stuff in 99/2000 and then they just started showing a Nick Jr lineup but then they switched to news soon after

ABC stopped mid 2000s and just started showing Disney Channel programming and then they switched to news completely soon after

I feel sorry for the kids growing-up nowadays without Cable. That was me growing up in the 90's. I didn't finally have cable till I was 13-year old Teenager in '02.

 

[StatUS]

That CW block was basically for old heads anyway. Justice League, DBZ, Yu Gi Oh, and Spectacular Spiderman.

Would a been the GOAT block in the early 2000s

ABC stopped mid 2000s and just started showing Disney Channel programming and then they switched to news completely soon after

when ABC stopped my childhood died a bit...

That's the point I was making. If you don't have cable or have access to high speed you're screwed
