I love lucy is awesome!
You just don't understand the genious of shows for their times.
In a fe years you probably won't like seinfeld in family guy anymore either.

I feel that Hiro made a very good point and it was way better than what I was attempting to do. Seems that most shows are limited to a specific age group (80s & 90s), as opposed to the real old stuff. Of course, as you pointed out, some 90s stuff was aimed at both children and adults, and seems it was mostly the Warner Bros stuff. The kids could enjoy the slapstick, while the adults could enjoy the jokes.

But since the world seems to have changed so much since 9/11, I have started really looking at things and analyzing them. It's given me a more negative perspective on this decade, I won't deny that. But it hasn't completely changed me because I'm still optimistic that things will start getting better in the next decade. Aside from that, I think the whole Dora thing is just part of my new way of thinking of the world, but that might be getting too philosophical.

I actually find the view an interesting one. Feel free to elaborate.

OH MY GOD! SOMEBODY LOCK THIS STUPID THREAD ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT HAS GONE WAY TOO FAR NOW. PEOPLE KEEP BUMPING AND BUMPING AND IT'S NEVER GONNA STOP UNTIL IT'S COMPLETELY LOCKED!!!!!

(Grampa Simpson in case not seen): In my day, we'd enjoy a nice bowl of Ninja Turtle-shaped Spaghetti-Os while tuning into the daytime hours of Nickelodeon. By golly, the times I'd have just sittin' there shouting at the kids in Legends of the Hidden Temple, how they're just too dumb putting that dumbass Silver Monkey together. I miss that talkin' tiki wonder called Olmec. Knowledgable he was, mobile he wasn't. When I'd get bored of watching a red cat and a chiuaua doing bizarre hootinanny, I would go to my room and listen to my Sound Garden records... for listening! And anybody remember the Atari Jaquar? Those graphics were blockier than pixelated pornography! Time has passed, and I haven't aged a bit! But now Nickylodeon's the equivelant of a World War II battle, without all the Kamikazes and tyrants! Dang ol' Nickylodeon, ya screwed me over!

*still Grampa Simpson* Back in my day, Cartoon Network was the talk of the town! All cartoons, all the time! From your timeless Hannah Barbera Classics, to the Merrie Melodies, to the strange World Premiere Toons with the introductions of classic Cartoon Network characters of the future! There was Blossom, Butters, and Buttercup, who were as cute as newborn babies! Johnny Bravo, who was as stylish as Alex Trebek! Finally Dexter, who was smarter than Gerald Ford, may he rest in peace. Those characters were darn tootin'! Then they had to ruin it all by bringin' in the crap like Lamp Cazlo and In of Johnny's Brain! Why I oughta-*falls asleep*



In all seriousness, it was a fun read. Hearing you rant on and on about the clichéd and overdone articles that Retro Junk is know for. Quite funny! Although the AVGN thing was unnecessary.

Instead of some being so melodramatic, why not ask a mod to close the thread?
