Hey, Saturday mornings in the late 70s and early 80s were my formative ones. :) I spent many a happy hour watching Super Friends, Godzilla, Dynomutt, Richie Rich, Pac-Man, Fangface, Valley of the Dinosaurs, Lassie's Rescue Rangers, Emergency+4, Drak Pack, Speed Racer, Ultraman, Gilligan's Planet, Josie & The Pussycats, Scooby-Doo, Laff-A-Lympics, Monster Squad, Krofft Supershow, Land of the Lost, Fantastic Four, Captain Caveman & the Teen Angels, the New Schmoo, the Archies, Shazam/Isis, Jabberjaw, Ark II, Bugs Bunny, Pink Panther, Speed Buggy, Space Ghost, Frankenstein Jr., Plastic Man, Fat Albert, Thundarr, Hong Kong Phooey, Space Stars, Spider-Man, and looooots more. :^)

I can tack on here. Some of these were more weekday:

The Goulies, Battle of the Planets (my favorite), Grape Ape, Wacky Racers, DC comics heroes (Iron Man, Hulk), Courageous Cat & Minute Mouse, Felix the Cat and Schoolhouse Rock.

I may be regionalizing myself here, but I spent many an afternoon yelling "PIX" at the Atari version of Asteroids on my TV.

Yeah I think this author is off on the timeframe. The late 70's/Earl 80's had some great cartoons. It wasn't until the late 80's/early 90's that cartoons had to have some kind of positive PC message.

It started with He-Man, When at the end one of the characters would come on and tell you the lesson you were supposed to have learned.

You are so bad. :)

Land of the Lost was my definite favorite,

Well until uncle Jack took over for dad.

Lawyers did kill the Fantastic Four, They were afraid of kids setting themselves on fire imitating the Human Torch that they replaced him with an annoying robot.
