Cartoons have always played a major role in my life, and have maintained my youth as the years have progressed. I love to laugh, and these shows have always managed to keep my spirits high, regardless of how badly my day has gone. I recommend cartoons for all; regardless of your age.

I vividly remember Saturday morning cartoons. It would run from 6am to 11am – the only time I would sit in front of the TV like that, then I would play outside afterwards.
IMO cartoons just aren’t the same. BTW, could you tell I am a guy from that list?! Lol.

I can tell! LOL! I loved Saturday morning cartoons! I had to sneak them though. I was raised in an SDA family-no TV on Saturdays…

It’s about Henry’s cat! Check it out in Wikipedia. It wasn’t great, it was just that your list encapsulated just about everything to do with my childhood and so I had to think of something you’d missed. 🙂 Oh, and where’s wacky races? 🙂
