Captain Planet was terrible and still is. Alf does not hold up like it did when I was a kid.

I noticed that I really did not like the episodes that took place after the 1986 movie, now I really like them. (remember when 2005 was waaay in the future???)

Sesame Street-I've actually seen a few of the newer episodes in my spare time and they are nothing like the new ones! Elmo is on every show along with that new pink fairy girl. They've also gotten rid of the "plot alternating with random segments" format I'm sure wev've all grown up with for set segments introduced by this fuzzy orange dude named Murray. I'm glad I outgrew it and stopped watching shortly after they introduced Elmo's World. Pokemon-This has to be one of the few animes that was better off being dubbed by 4Kids. It pretty much fell after they got rid of Misty after the 5th season and I totally gave up on the show in the middle of the Diamond & pearl series when I found out Ash would judt lose the Pokemon League again. The only thing that got me to watch it again was when I found out the new Black & White Series would be "radically different". While it is, it is nowhere near as good as it was back in the day.

8 Bit 3 years 5 months ago Posts: 41	Most shows I watched as a kid don't "rock" as much as they used to, for obvious reasons. Production flaws are much easier to ignore when you're young, if you even noticed them in the first place. Still, I find myself going back and watching some of these shows just for that rush of nostalgia. They may not be nearly as entertaining these days but I still get something out of them in a way.

OldSchool6239 3 years 5 months ago Posts: 239	NInja Turtles it freaks me out to cause I try to watch it and I'm like damn this bad I can't do it anymore it's just to cheesy. But I do have my list of cartoons as well that I'm sure other people can't watch anymore. Example my sons walk out of the room when ever I put on the SuperMario Brothers Super Show, or She-Ra HAHAHAHAHAHA they can't sit through those. But they like Transformers and The Real Ghostbusters which makes me proud.

You bring up the cheesiness of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but you can still watch the Super Mario Bros Super Show, which is just as awful and cheesy? My mind is baffled. Likes cheese lol

Likes cheese lol I watch it more for the nostalgia. Your right its freaking aweful but I watch it knowing what I'm going into. I guess when I turned on TMNT I wasn't expecting it to be that way. I did mention others probley can't watch it either.

SSJ Jup81 3 years 5 months ago Posts: 4806	Well, I went back to TMNT a few months ago. I went in expecting cheese, and I'm enjoying it. It's like so bad it's funny to me. I've also grown to like Donny's character a lot in eps focused around him...like that ep where he lost his mind and was on a rampage to literally kill Shredder.

I usually watch them myself, but I don't care.

Old_school_JJ 3 years 2 months ago Posts: 1192	Thought of another one to add to my list. The Super Mario Bros Super Show. I don't remember watching too many episodes as a kid, but a few. I found, as I mentioned in the "What was the last DVD you bought and why" thread, I found a used DVD set of volume 1 for fairly cheap and bought. It's honestly pretty horrible of a show. Sadly I got my nephew into it and he ALWAYS wants to watch it.

AtlantaCommercials 3 years 2 months ago Posts: 1244	I also remember loving Rugrats as a kid back in the 90s/very early 00s.I used to watch it all the time and even watched the first two films in the theatres.Then,I realised that I was getting too old for the show and hooked on the Cartoon Network City Era in 2004.
