Posted April 22, 2018 I've had about as much negative information on here than I can handle for the next lifetime. (although a lot of it is warranted I agree) Getting back to possibly a fun time like we had before the BP episode and we all started talking about how "this is the end" and worrying about things that were out of our control, we used to have a couple of fun conversations now and again. In that lighter spirit, I have to ask you all........ When you were a kid, what was your absolute favorite cartoon that you would NEVER MISS every Saturday morning while you enjoyed a (gasp) big ass bowl of Cap'n Crunch with (gasp) Crunch berries? Something else was your fave??? Please respond, I'm sure we'd all like to know? Me, easy.... Scooby- Doo, Where Are You? The rest of you? Be careful because if you answer "The Flintstones" I think you might be calling yourselves out! Just kidding of course! Time for a little aside and maybe much needed fun like we used to have! Thanks in advance to responding to this! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 22, 2018 I "grew up" on radio. Before I could read, my Sunday morning was spent with the SF Chronicle comics section and KCBS radio on. A local personality would read the comics on air and I'd follow along. Those of you who predate Gutenberg or Marconi feel free to wade in. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Having fun was what it was all about then and should be what it's all about now William Conrad was the voice of Gunsmoke on the radio. He went to school with someone I knew. When he played "Cannon" he was a private eye who was also quite a cook. According to the person I knew, he was really into cooking in college. I have a number of cartoons I remember, but also liked the reruns of Flash Gordon and watching Sky King. Thanks for lightening the mood. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks in advance to responding to this! Alright, all of you are going to laugh at this but Scooby-Doo was my ATF, and still is. I have the original Scooby doll(he is very beat up from lots of cries, hugs, kisses, years of convos about life, etc.)a lot of kitchen utensils like a cookie jar, salt/pepper shaker, every epsiode of the original shows, as well as , the movies(I don't have the newest cartoons cause they are dumb), underwear and bras, clothes(lots), blankets, bed sheets, etc. Oh yeah...I am hardcore Scooby. I was even Scooby Doo last year for Halloween because I have the onesie, and I had been DYING to be Scooby. LOL! Yeah, I am weird! Strangely, my favorite cereal was between Raisin Bran, and Frosted Flakes(sneak loads of sugar onto it) because my mother refused to ever buy the fun, sweet kinds. Once in a blue moon she would gift us with the Cocoa Pebbles which made chocolate milk(awesome!), Apple Jacks, or Cinnamon Toast Crunch. That was it! When I went to friend's houses or finally turned 18, I got others like Fruit Loops, Lucky Charms, and Capt Crunch. They are okay. I now love my All Bran with bananas, or Life. Another that I wouldn't miss was Bugs Bunny...how could anyone not love Bugs Bunny(Looney Toons)!?!? xoxo, Samantha Sheppard 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 22, 2018 Saturday mornings were for Looney Toons and loved Frosted Mini Wheats. After school was Transformers of course 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 22, 2018 My dad is from the deep south so we never had cold cereal for breakfast. It was always meat, fruit, & porridge (grits, cream of wheat or malt-o-meal) on weekdays before school & a full spread on the weekends. My favs were Inspector Gadget before school, Blinky's Fun Club after school (Happy birth-day Dear chil-dren) & Teenage Mutant Ninga Turtles on Saturday mornings. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then later on after school he-man, She-ra, thunder cats, silver spoons and Punky Brewster! going even further than that...Pippy long stockings!!! I think I was like 4 when my Nana had me watch that!
