The End of Saturday Morning
Well, it looks like there won't be cartoons on Saturday mornings any more:

I can't say that I've enjoyed watching cartoons on Saturday mornings for quite some time, but this makes me damn sad all the same. I understand that we live in a strange, terrifying world of tomorrow where all kids have cable and strange internet things that feed them infantile garbage 24/7, so there's no need for actual entertainment that can entertain children and adults at once that could appear on network television, but it makes me feel old all the same. So very old.
My question to you: what was the last time you can remember really enjoying watching cartoons on Saturday morning? wikipedia has a programming archive that stretches back forty years
I think mine was 1997. You can't beat, the Tick, Earthworm Jim, Superman, and Freakazoid. In fact, I wish I were watching all those cartoons right now.
