This is the first time I've been up on Saturday morning in a while and I can't find any cartoons. What the hell?!

the good old days of saturday morning cartoons are sadly long gone.

Back in the day Saturday Morning was special because it was a magical, animated oasis in the vast desert of television.
Hold on, they made Mr.Popo blue? :lolspindashing said:Was the second question really necessary in the thread title?
Saturday mornings have sucked for years. I can't even attribute it to me growing "too old" for them; the content is mindblowingly bad. I think there is Dragonball Z on the CW, but that's the edited version of Dragonball Z Kai with blue Mr. Popo.

Its hilarious. I'm sympathetic to their reasoning behind it, but man did they botch the job.Veidt said:

Some of those Cartoon Network shows that have "lazy animation" are in reality far more entertaining than most of those '80s cartoons we look back on with a golden, nostalgic glow.PumpkinPie said:Cartoons are shitty now anyway.
Cartoon Network started showing lazy animation e.g Johnny Bravo, Dexter's Lab, Samurai Jack, Powerpuff Girls etc... and then studios realised they could make cartoons with no effort put into them and get away with it.
