We knew up into the early 00s. ABC still did morning cartoon blocks on Saturday, they even got Disney stuff when they were bought up. Then there was the WB Kids block which did your 4KIDS Pokemon, Yugioh, Sonic, and then DC stuff like Superman, Static Shock, and original programs like Johnny Test (I didn't care for that one myself). It was all on Saturday mornings and we all got up and ran to the TV and watched until they were over, just like 80s and 90s kids did. Some channels tried to revive that a little. The Hub, back when that started, did a mix of old and new programs, but it also did cartoons periodically through the day as well. Now though, you just turn on Cartoon Network or Disney XD or Nickelodeon and there's cartoons all day long.

Today parents can be the program director. You can show your child a block of all the same shows you grew up with starting at 8 AM on Saturdays. "The Power is YOURS!"

Also Why Asnt Anyone Made A DVD Seat Of 8 Hours Of 80s Cartoons With Commercials Yet?

Born in '74 here too and I feel so damn lucky for it!

xxlola101 I was 9 in 86 I do miss the 80s

xxlola101 Shit, I was 5 in 86! God I'm old! xD

xxlola101 I too miss the eighties I was six years old Saturday mornings would never be the same me and my sister in the living room eating breakfast watching cartoons all morning long till afternoon those were the days

i was 10 and nintendo was about to hit

I was 11 and in sixth grade. The 80's started when I was 5 and other than John Lennon being shot, it was a great decade. I wouldn't switch with any of the kids after us. I loved my childhood.

Oh, kids matter today too! ...As the source of cash, that is. Back then, kids mattered as flowers of life, so there was more soul put into cartoons.

Doug Isbel and the kids programs weren’t jam packed with leftist globalist white guilt messaging/propaganda📺📹🛹

Now most cartoons seem to be made for adults.

Lol we did every Saturday morning we would be up at the crack of dawn for Saturday morning cartoons

Not one problem! I would go to sleep at 5 on a Saturday morning and wake up an hour later, ready to go! 😂

Jason Ritenour It really isn't. These were cartoons you only got on Saturdays so it made it that much more special to watch. I never thought in my lifetime there would never be Saturday morning cartoons for my kids to watch. Damn shame.

No back then it wasnt as known and thrown out there everything had better quality it was more enjoyable it was more natural rather then this youtube recreated and halfass remakes with internet fan base and shit

jerbojones you can thank the stupid government for that

Travis Augustine The rise of streaming and digital distribution is 1 factor.

the old cartoons back no remakes; the government should make Saturdays morning retro.

🙌🏼

Nothing could possibly go wrong.....😒

Was cartoons on when it was monday

Im 44 and I remember making a bowl of cereal and getting excited to watch Saturday morning cartoons. I watch cartoon network with my 10 year old son, they show a lot of retro cartoons, flintstones, scooby doo, Tom and Jerry, smurfs and lots of others. It's so sad but unfortunately those times are gone.

Punky Brewster was not a “great cartoon”.

@@ronniechoate3086 No it wasn't but it our cartoon. It's something us 80's kids can only appreciate.

OMG Yes! tht's all it needs. I might hit this again tonight with some Honey Smacks.

Are you a single person I miss these days I'm fifty years old.

My Favorite. Turn the milk Blue😋

If you mix Frankenberry and Boo Berry cereal you get the same taste. You can still get them around Halloween at Wal-Mart.

Yes Williams u r right. Nbc also showed other serials like sanford and son. Missing those days man. Really 80s was the best.

J Williams Don't forget about "Pro Stars" with Michael Jordan, Bo Jackson and Wayne Gretzky.

@@rohanm2394 "hi, I'm Ahmad rashaad, and your watching inside stuff" these kids don't have a freakin clue about entertainment.

Hulk Hogans Rock n Wrestling and New Kids on the block

Yeah me too. 80s and 90s were great. Wish I was born sooner

No kidding. I was 9 years old in 1986. Unfortunately this video will probably be taken down soon now that it's going viral.

no problem. more to come

Aye at least your doing that much. I can admire that. Most adults forgot what those moments will do for the kids later on in life. They will remember it.

Born in 76. These 80's cartoons were my childhood, for better or worse.

Chuck Moore how about that Dracula cereal

Spot on

Don't forget your favorite cereal.

Or Soul Train
