I'm sorry, but I'm 29 yrs old & needed to answer your question.\nI feel the same way about cartoons these days.  Although, I do love Courage the Cowardly Dog on Cartoon Network.

I am 26 and I still think it is funny.  Some people think its disgusting but who cares just keep on laughing it up.

I do but older ones (hey I'm 40 I'm old enough to remember old ones:)  Either way I like all the ones above but you gotta also include Hanna Barbera ones.....Flintstones, The Jetsons, Scooby-Doo, etc.  I also like Pink Panther, and just about anything prior to 1990.  \n\nNow for my return question, I'm babysitting my great nephew this weekend & he's been glued to Cartoon Network (which my personal fave has to be Boomerang when they show the stuff I am referring to above).  \n\nTell me WTF is Bobobobobo Bo Boboboooo?  Did I even say it right?  I watched it last night & feel like this is today's version of the Sid & Marty Kroft pothead stuff we had in the early '70's.. LOL  \n\nTo sum it up, we're who we are today thanks to Saturday mornings and ABC cartoons, including the Schoolhouse Rock! series that made watching commercials worth it!  I have some of my best memories from sleepovers and stuff on the weekends watching the masters of imagination give me my 30 minute fixes:)  I'm sure you'll agree!

Youth of the old days, didn't have many of the modern conveniences of the youth of today. Life was more simple. Slower pace to life. Less stress. \nOur youth today are misunderstood. They are faced with many things that even 20 years ago were basically unknown. They are pushed to succeed at earlier ages than ever before. They aren't allowed to just be kids. They are judged many times unjustly. So much more is expected of them, and they rebel. I don't blame them. I sympathize with them. The youth of today amaze me, all the things that they face upon reaching adulthood. They have my respect.

yes... when people remember "the good old days"... it's funny how so many things are just glossed over... \n\nthe good old days weren't that good the more you learn about them...

I watch cartoons with my grandchildren quite often. We all like Scooby Doo, however my favorite is Family Guy. It's on late at night.

Watched any cartoons in the 80's?? Let's see...Tom and Jerry were constantly blowing each other up, hitting, fighting, slicing and evaporating one another. Then there's the Smurfs...Old Gargamel (SP?) wanted nothing more than to catch the Smurfs so he could eat them for dinner. Even the Flintstones had shooting, hitting, and people getting pounded by rocks. You'd probably be better off finding cartoons that WEREN'T violent in the 80's. As far as TV, I have no idea...I was a little kid then...lol

Sorry friend but your generation is being assimulated by mine.\n\nVery few new stuff seems to be prominent. Lots of stuff from 80s and earlier.\n\nWe just don't want to give you a voice.

Oh, Tom & Jerry by far!! I have an animation degree and have studied 2D cartoons from the 20th century for awhile. In my opinion, the animation is far superior in ol' Tom & Jerry cartoons to  the Scoob. As far as plots go, the mystery machine is a pretty good story, and they DO speak, but T&J still has my vote.

Yes, I completely agree.  While many present-day comics are entertaining on the SURFACE, they're nowhere near the level of the legends from the past.  I'm no prude, but I get tired of obnoxious 20-something-year-old comedians prancing around on Comedy Central amid a virtual cloud of profanities, as if they thought "talent" was measured by how loud you can be and how many swear words you can use in one minute.  And furthermore, it seems these days that if you're a famous comic, you can do just about anything and the chorus of pancake-faced audience members will just applaud like morons no matter what.  Have you seen "Saturday Night Live" lately?  It's not even funny, but the people tune in to see their favorite stars anyway.\n\nWhile it may sound presumptuous, I feel that standup comedy is dying, or at least for me it is.  These days I find the majority of my entertainment in books, Internet, radio programs, and a select group of TV shows like "The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson" and "The Office."  Comedy needs to get its act together.

Yeah, I used to watch that when I was younger.  It was a pretty good cartoon.

Mine was definately Voltron and Transformers. I used to make a big bowl of cereal and watch those every Saturday morning. They sure don't make Saturday morning cartoons like they used to.

I did when I was a kid, but now I'm 38 and know better. It doesn't get good 'till you hit 30. I think our idea of "old" tends to change the older we get.

yes, i agree with you times are definatly changing with the what they see on TV to what they see, hear about, and maybe even do in school...not to mention the responsibilty's that this time and age entale it could be that they are taking care of themselves and/or siblings or the very "grown-up" situations that they have to face everyday also good parenting of i guess our times could be a source for change not wanting their kids to grow up like they did, and alot of teens are taking a stand on what they believe whether it's moral or religious and such i guess the list could go on and on but don't get me wrong there are still alot of kids/teens that still act their age or less lol but the good in alot of ways out ways the bad

I've got mixed emotions about the two. I love some of the older American cartoons, and some of the newer ones seem to be getting more and more like Anime. But when I want to watch for artistic pleasure, give me Vampire Hunter D. I've never really seen american cartoons that use watercolors the way that movie has them. And I think it's hilarious to see how Anime is beginning to use american words or expressions.\n\nI love Anime for it's artistic value, and for the fact that anime doesn't limit cartoons to a child's ages. If there were more American cartoons like that, I would be a big fan. But you can't forget classics like Scooby Doo, Secret Squirrel, Dick Dastardly, Bugs Bunny, and those guys.\n\nMy little girl is a year old, and her favorite channel is Boomerang, the Cartoon Network channel of older cartoons. But she watches Anime with me... and she loves Hellsing. I laughed so hard at her clapping for Alucard and Walter.

Actually YES. I think your question is awesome. I wish I was a teenager back in the 80s. However, I'm really glad that I was a little kid in the 80's cause of the best cartoons, toys, tv shows, etc. so I don't really have any regrets.

sadly there gone with all the writers. so now all they have is crappy shows and old shows that used to be good, but the writers screwed them to the point they make my eyes blead. they screwed up pokemon and put in new voices. That's just wrong. they also took out Cow and Chicken. Cow and Chicken! Iwan't every one at Cartoon network to know their knew shows suck elderly, muslim, jewish balls.
