Often I forget about some of the stuff I would glue my eyes as I watch TV when I was a kid. Sometimes I need a quick glimpse into TV past. As I do, I realize there is no wonder our generation is crazy as hell.

I blame Bugs Bunny for CCT's racism.
Edit Note: On second thought the videos are probably not a good idea.

He was more into the Teletubbies. The Smurfs was a bit before his time. They were in reruns...

When I was at Auburn, Mel Blanc came to speak. The guy was awesome and talked about how they purposely slipped in some adult themes to a lot of their cartoons. He also talked about how violent most of their cartoons really were and showed a few examples, including one where Yosemite Sam was trying to take over a fort/castle from Bugs.
I've got a 10 year old and all the cartoons now are that Japanese shit, Naruto....hugio....Mashiki something or other.

For real. I can't stand any of this shit nowadays. Its all about learning shit. Back in the day it was about blowing shit up, saving the girls and the world. Back then even pops might sight down for a while and get in some laughs.
On a side note: My kids love the shit out of Yo Gabba Gabba. I'm telling you, its really really strange at first but you get sucked into it. Now, I have these f'n Gabba Gabba songs playing in my head.

I blame most of my general ineptitude on Hong Kong Phooey.

My kid hates it when I walk through the room where he's watching one of these Yugio things. I start talking in my dubbed over Japanese movie voice.
Ha, I see your powers have improved since last we met however my powers are even stronger and it won't take long for me to defeat you. Ha Ha Ha
Mmmmm...that may be but you do not realize that I have been in training with the Hubaki Master and I have harnessed the universal star powers. SOLAR FLASH...GO
Dad...Dad...shut up...Daaaad...go away.

Interesting thought. Is anime this generation's version of kung fu movies like we had?
I can remember Kung fu on Saturday afternoons after Soul Train on WCOV.

Holy Kdap.....Goldar??? I forgot all about that thing. I used to watch it too but it was one of those shows that was soooooo badly done, you HAD to watch. You were like, "No way...you can see the string holding the rocket in the air". And why the little Jap kid had to wear that helmet...

That was not fair. There are many times I don't like your bitchy little white ass either. But that does not make me a racist. A homophobe maybe!
I was fond of Rocky and Bullwinkle with Mr. Peabody and the WayBack Machine.

My kids are 4 and 5, and they don't really watch any of the Japanimation stuff yet, but even the things they watch on Nick are weird. I mean, how do these people come up with some of this stuff? They have to be on shrooms or something. They do like to watch some of the old Tom and Jerry and Yogi Bear type stuff on Cartoon Network that I used to watch as a kid, but there is some weird shit out there.

Speaking of weird, my boy was watching this show that used to come on Cartoon Network, I believe it's called Billy and Mandy. I know I've told this before...but damn it..my stories are just so interesting. It's got these 2 kids in it and the Grim Reaper lives with them. Weird enough. Anyway, this episode starts out with the Grim Reaper sleeping on a rug with a dragon. (See RWS Shroom reference above) He's dreaming and starts saying "Wait, this is not my beautiful wife. And this is not my beautiful house" Then the kid, Billy, pops in his dream and starts saying "Same as it ever was....Same as it ever was".
My boy is laughing and I'm sitting there going, "WTF..late 70's Talking Heads lyrics?"
Then I realized I had been doing peyote for 3 days straight.

Just be glad they aren't watching The Regular Show. My kid is into that one now...it is seriously effed up.

My daughter loves Phineas and Ferb, which I actually think is pretty good for a new toon. We also DVR Looney Toons and watch them together (or by myself after she has gone to bed).

I personally love Phineas and Ferb too - that is approved TV in our house, along with Sponge Bob. Other than that, nothing else on commercial TV that is specifically aimed at kids. My two love Mythbusters and Americas Funniest Videos, and a lot of the Discovery nature shows, but we do NOT do that stupid iCarly/Suite Life/tweeneybopper shit. K is only 7, so I am holding out as long as I can...
The Looney Tunes Spotlight collections are SO worth the money. Around 30 original, uncut, uncensored classics on each DVD. We have five or six of them, and the kids will watch them non-stop. So will I.

My son likes Phineas and Ferb. I agree, it doesn't seem to be half bad as far as weirdness goes. Maybe I'm just getting old, but they don't make these cartoons like they used to. Dora, Diego, and believe it or not Team Umizoomi aren't that terrible either. My kids actually do the math problems, solve patterns, etc with Umizoomi and interact, which is good. We give them a good bit of freedom in what they watch. Plus, they watch big people TV with us a good bit in the evening as well. Which we don't really watch anything other than History Channel, Nat Geo, Discovery, TLC, etc.
Is it just me, or is regular old TV just plain shit? I mean, there aren't even any good sitcoms around anymore. I don't really like reality TV (Survivor, et al). So You Think You Can Dance is a pretty decent show. American Idol is a sham. Just really no good TV on IMO.

So you think you can dance is on constantly in my house. My daughter has been dancing since she was 3...non-stop. Just got back from a year in Chicago where she was on a dance scholarship at some "Famous" dance school. Will be in Pittsburgh in the Fall doing the same thing. So needless to say, that show is recorded, played, replayed, talked about....
I stay in man cave and watch sports and Deadliest Catch

I had a couple of the sets before we even had kids. After my oldest had watched enough of the "I'm Ok, you're OK crap (Barney, Thomas the Train, etc.) I asked her if she wanted to watch some of Daddy's cartoons. She was amazed. She looked very confused as to why the people were hitting each other, but was amazed.
Incidentally, those toons could never be made today. I was watching one with the kids where Speedy Gonzalez was trying to get across the border (which had a fence incidentally) to steal American cheese with Sylvester as the border guard. Speedy even kept calling Sylvester a gringo. :classic:
-
Cartoons...fuck what they have on now...fuck it in da mouf.
#1 problem...(also the reason kids are fat and have a general want it now attitude) cartoons are on 24/7.
With the creation of all these kids channels.
Fuck I remember when cartoons were on Saturday morning and that was it. I remember being so excited for Saturday morning. Getting up early watching Hanna Barbara, Loony Tunes (my Dad would do the Pepe La Pew voice), cartoons used to have new shows released just like TV seasons. Then it would be over by 11am -12 and you were outside to play with your friends the rest of the day.
and if we are talking shows no one beat...

This man knows what's up....
I have previewed cartoons to see what is out there b/c my son is not really old enough to watch yet. Yo-Gabba-Gabba will not, let me repeat, WILL NOT, be allowed in house. I watched about 5 seconds and almost threw the remote through the TV. I think Cartoon Network and Boomerang will be the only think that saves my sanity.....and a little Sponge Bob. So far he like's Robin Hood when all of the animals are marching across the screen at first and loves "Elmo's Rootin' Tootin' Hootin' Hollerin' Jamberee†DVD. :suicide:
So glad that he would rather play with toys and cries to go outside where there is no TV.

Doofenshmirtz is teh best relatively new cartoon character on TV imnsho. I sometimes use my DVRinator to watch them too.

My 18 month old completely ignores the TV until Toy Story 3 goes in the DVD player. Then he just stands there in the middle of the floor picking his nose and scratching his butt for about an hour. If he just had a beer between his knees he would look just like his Dad!

Team Umizoomi? You have just lost what miniscule shred of respect I might have ever harboured for you.
That show makes me want to drive red hot pokers into my skull. Mind numbingly stupid on a thousand different levels. Patronizing and condescending to children - kids don't need shit spoonfed to them constantly - they need to be able to make a few connections themselves.
If you really have to have all that, you can learn all about classical music and how to defy the laws of physics by watching Road Runner and Bugs Bunny. Seriously, how many of you can hear Ride of the Valkyries or the Overture to the Barber of Seville and NOT think of Bugs Bunny? I remember the first time I realized that the cartoon music was "real music" and bought some classical albums - and I still love classical music to this day, thanks to Elmer Fudd.
I am all about having smart kids and all, but the phrase "educational cartoons" is one of those "oxymoron" things. Cartoons are supposed to be FUN!! Fuck that whole "learning can be fun!" crap - that is just a guilt trip aimed at parents who DON'T think their kids have to be soaking in calculus in their sleep in order to get into a good college. Brains need downtime too - and an hour of Sponge Bob is perfect for that.

I always liked it when the people on the ground would be taken up by the alien ships, you'd shoot the ships and then try to save the people. I always just shot them. But then again, in more modern games, I liked killing the hookers in GTA III, just to get my money back.

Let's fast forward to the present. Saturday, I'm flipping channels between college baseball games and during a commercial, I come across this movie on TNT or FX or something. It's about lunch time and the scene is obviously in a prison. 4-5 guys have this skinhead pinned against the wall. They cuss each other back and forth and suddenly, the guy behind him just rams it up his ass about 7-8 times til he spunks then slams the dude's head in the wall.
The very next scene is the fuckee laying ass up on a doctor's table and the doc tells the guard it only took 7 stitches. Now...I know the obvious jokes and shit coming here but why the hell is it necessary to show that kind of stuff right there on channels that kids will be surfing? I mean, to each his/her own. Watch what you want (I know I do) but some of that stuff has got to be limited when it's that easily accessible to kids.
I miss the Herculoids.
