Good article.

And he's right.

Cartoons in the late 70's were awful. Mostly an extended commercial for "Strawberry Shortcake" dolls or "Power Rangers"

( Of course, I like Sponge Bob. What do I know? LOL! )

I got all the violence fixes that I needed in the early '70s from Bugs Bunny cartoons. I loved seeing Daffy get his beak blown off...

But now, just try to find an unedited version of BB on TV anywhere, you won't.

Two Words - Lonney Toons (Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Elmer Pig, etc.)

Used to be 3 hours of them every Saturday.

"Speed Racer" was cool too, plus there were times that people actually died, usually the bad guys, for their actions.

Are the unedited versions available on tape/DVD? I recall seeing an extremely rare WWII Bugs cartoon, with some really horrific caricatures of "the Nip" and the Nazis (getting seriously Owned by Bugs, naturally).

I should say I don't think G.I. JOE was a bad cartoon, it was one of my favorite ones.

That and HE-MAN!
