Saturday Morning Cartoons

I don't have any kids but I watch a lot of the comedy series that are on for kids. I miss all of the looney tunes cartoons from a long time ago.

I used to watch cartoons together with my niece, but I don't do it anymore since I've been very busy as of late. But I do get to watch cartoons sometimes, like Spongebob, Justice League Unlimited and The Simpsons. I think these cartoons are too mature for kids to watch, so I make sure that my niece won't get to watch them. Also, I like watching The Grimm Adventures of Billy and Mandy, as I find Billy and Grimm wacky!;)

As for the cartoon that I miss, I am a Transformers fan, so sorry if I missed watching those. The smurfs are cute too, as they are also cuddly.

I don't have kids but I still watch Saturday morning cartoons. I really don't like most of modern day cartoons.I do like the transormers but always hated the power rangers. I prefer back in the day-my personal favorite looney tunes,garfield,justice league,popeye,mickey mouse. Modern day cartoons are eith er extrememly violent or they glorify disfunctional families.

Glad to know others like the 'oldies' too. Todays cartoons are not a patch on some of the oldies, there was no-one quite like Yankee Doodle(?) for his favorite quote "It's an injustice, it is" or the sheepdog who is his friend. I just love Tweetypie and Sylvester too. Those were 'real' cartoons.

It's been a long time since I've watched cartoons. I did watch them with my kids when they were small, but even then I didn't think they were that good. I used to watch Bugs Bunny and the Roadrunner, the Flintstones, and the Jetsons. There were some other cartoons, they might have been called Merry Melodies that had all sorts of characters and stories. It used to be worth getting up early on Saturday morning to watch cartoons.

Captain cave maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan! That was what first popped into my head when I read your discussion. I loved the Smurfs too. They don't even really have Saturday morning cartoons they way we used to. They have shows on pretty much 24/7 now. I like some of the shows my boys watch. They are 10 & 8 and mostly watch Animal Planet and Discovery Channel, so not too many cartoons anymore.

lol I still watch Saturday morning cartoons. I'm just a kid at heart I guess! On the CW networl, they have newer versions of the old cartoons. There is the Tom and Jerry cartoon, the Johnny Test cartoon, Krypto the Super Dog (which is like justice league with animals, they follow the cartoon formula from the 60's and 70's). They also have a Scooby Doo cartoon. In other words, this station is going back to older roots for cartoons.

My children are much too old to be watching cartoons with, rather I watch cartoons with my grandchildren. I completely agree! You certainly can't be the classics, as they were wholesome entertainment. In fact, I went out and bought many of the classic cartoons on DVD (seasons), so that my grandchildren could enjoy the same cartoons that I did when I was growing up.

yeah,i use to watch cartoons together with my girlie.as she is so young i don't let her watch cartoons with violence and ugly characters.we have a nice cartoon channel suitable for her age.i think i watch cartoons every day and i really enjoy some of them.and mygirlie is very happy

I didn't think they still had Saturday morning cartoons. No, my kids don't watch them. For the past several years our Saturday mornings have been spent at the softball and baseball fields. No time for Saturday morning cartoons. I think it's a reflection of how different things are these days for most people. The hectic schedules and such. No leisurely Saturday and Sunday mornings any more.

Luckily, my daughter is between seasons (very briefly) and my son isn't playing baseball this season (he needs to focus on schoo a little more).

They do get their share of cartoons though. Cartoon network is on 24 hours a day and I believe Nickleodean has their share of cartoons. I have watched my share of SpongeBob Squarepants there, and so have my kids.

They did watch cartoons on the weekday mornings before they started school. When I became a stay at home mom, part of my routine was to wake up, make breakfast and watch the morning kid shows with my daughter and then my son.

To answer the other part of your question. Yes, as a child I did watch the Saturday morning cartoons.
There were also some non cartoon shows that I used to watch. I believe one was called creature feature another was something about a bunch of kids on an island with dinosaurs?

I used to watch, Underdog?, Mighty Mouse, Superfriends, Isis (non cartoon), I miss School House Rock also. That's all I can remember right now.
