    Taz-Mania

    I loved Taz-Mania. The way we learn about Taz's family life and that he does have a tender heart when it comes to his little brother and pet turtle. And I like the antics of the two alligator hunters, Bull and Axl. The way they're always trying to hunt Taz so the zoo going children can see...

    No more Kid's WB... way to go Warners!

    First Fox Kids disappeared a few years ago and now Kids' WB? I just wonder what shows we'll see next year? I just hope CN, Nicktoons, and Disney will come out with new better shows soon. Or we can only hope that a brand new cartoon studio will rise and bring us better shows in the future.

    Studios that rely on certain voice artists a lot.

    Yes, Lou did quite a few voices for his cartoons, either uncredited or under the alias name Erik Gunden. Also his wife Jay and his daughter Erika and son Lane did voices too. Kind of reminds me on how Jim Henson and his wife and some of his kids were Muppet performers.

    Studios that rely on certain voice artists a lot.

    It seems like cartoon studios rely on one particular voice artist for almost all of their shows. In the old days, WB had Mel Blanc doing almost all their characters. Today they mostly rely on Rob Paulsen and also Jeff Bennett. Hanna-Barbera relied on Daws Butler and Don Messick in the old...

    The Best 5 years of Sesame Street

    I kind of liked the around the corner years. Ruth Buzzi joined the cast, I liked the Furry Arms Hotel skits, and there was really good writing and neat stories in those years. Especially the Slimey Goes to the Moon saga.

    Do Folks Do This To You..?

    I use to feel that way when I buy something like a Looney Tunes magazine from a grocery store or rent a kid's video and wonder what the clerks think of me. Now I'm thankful the internet has come. For now I can order the stuff online without having anyone in a big store judge me.

    Twiddlebugs' smoke detector

    Does anyone remember this Twiddlebug skit from the late 80's? A green Twiddlebug, who was their landlord, was installing a smoke detector on the wall and then left the house. The Twiddlebugs were wondering what that round thing on the wall was. Tina Twiddlebug remembered that they taught what...

    I remember seeing Alice in the classic 60's series, Captain Nice. She played the overprotective mother on the show. I too liked Alice Ghostley and I won't forget her talents. :cry:

    Your Thoughts On "Muppets Tonight!"

    I kind of prefered The Jim Henson Hour's, Muppettelevision. I liked how Kermit went from the Muppet Show to organizing his own TV station and how he brought old characters like Link and Gonzo to help him out along with some new Muppets like the cool looking Digit and the cute Bean Bunny and the...

    Cartoons that seem to last forever

    I've also noticed that after all these years, the kids are still kids and never age. And even when they come back from summer vacations, they always end up back in the same classrooms with the same teachers, like they'll never move on to the next grade.

    Cartoons that seem to last forever

    I've noticed that these cartoons have been going on for many years and won't seem to get cancelled anytime soon. The Simpsons are starting their 19th year this season. King of the Hill will be starting its 11th year. South Park has been renewed until 2011. Pokemon has been airing in...
