Over the years, the quality of the product went to hell, and I'm not talking about the actual animation (I can remember "Clutch Cargo," for crying out loud). PC and marketing tie-ins made cartoons worse as time went on. The last ones that I thought were actually funny (instead of preachy) were some on Nick- they were eventually pushed aside for "lifestyle" animation.

(I can remember "Clutch Cargo," for crying out loud).Ah, that doesn't make you ancient, ya know?
BTW, don't you think Howard Dean's mouth looks just like Clutch's?

Now with the Cartoon Network you can watch them around the clock, not just on Saturday AMs.
I'm a real purist when it comes to cartoons - I only like the old ones. So many of the newer ones have crappy animation and stupid themes.
Some of the cartoon network ones aren't bad but still don't match up to the older ones, for me.
I love Warner Bros. Looney Tunes and really miss the Pink Panther and "The Ant and the Aardvark". We spent many happy Saturday mornings watching them with my father when I was a kid.

Remember his co-horts Spinner and Paddlefoot? What a bizarre cartoon. And where can you catch Speedy Gonzales these days? See you later, Wally Gator.
