Shit... when I was young (and that's before most of you kids were even a raised eyebrow on your dad's forehead), we had cool programs... Transformers, G.I. Joe, etc... Nothing but violence and good times... Now what do they have? I was in a pizza joint inhabited by a gang of fucking rugrats today and I saw what these kids have to look forward to after school... 'Spongehead Squarepants' (or something like that, maybe 'Spongedick Squarenads?') - Essentially, an animated yellow bathroom sponge. WTF? Kids actually like this shit? And what's the deal with the Siamese dog and cat combo? ...the one where they're attached at the ass and share 4 legs? Honestly, how does this thing shit?

I really need to reevaluate my friendships.
yeah, Spongebob Squarepants is also the rage with some of my school bitches. since they are 18 year boys it somehow appeals to them. i used to watch HeMan in the morning while eating my cereal before school in junior high. i didnt like it at first but it grew on me. the other cartoon you speak of is Catdog i believe. my 35 year old ex loves it. i think what he loved about it the most is that it annoyed the fuck outta me. I do like Duckman, its fucking funny as hell. Jason Alexander does the voice for it. i just dont know when its on and i am usually to busy reading forums to watch it.

I forgot about He-Man,I used to watch that show all the time,I had all action figures and Castle Grayskull too. Duckman is the shit too,comedy central used to have two episodes in a row at one and one thirty on the morning but I guess they stopped showing them.

I kinda grew to like it too, I'm afraid to admit. You know what cartoon I really hate (besides all the Nick Kid's cartoons Rugrats-->GRRR :mad ? Tiny Toons. It annoys the fucking hell out of me. Kinda like the Muppet Babies did. Did nanny ever change her fucking socks? And another one... A Pup named Scooby Doo. Why didn't they just leave well-enough alone?

I remember always wanting "Snake Mountain" - didn't it have some kind of crazy microphone/speaker that would alter the sound of your voice?
The coolest toy when i was growing up was those pogoballs. I loved transformers and voltron, dont get me wrong. But i loved hopping on that damn thing.
shrinky dinks were cool. i'd buy some now but i cant find them anywhere and the jackoffs at Toys R Us never heard of them. slime huh? i had a slime thing called Creepy Crawlers. you melt some slime in a cauldron then pour it into bug shaped molds and make jelly bugs. i also had the complete Wizard of Oz castle and all the characters. way cooler than Greyskull.

Maybe we're all thinking about Fire House H.Q that definately had slime, you can see the grill on the roof (behind the blue poll) where you poored the slime in. That shit kicked arse!!! And yeah, Snake Mountain had a microphone, I didn't have one, but my mate did, so I used to play with his.
I'm pretty sure there was something He-Man related that used slime... Obviously, not the only toy that did, but I'm almost positive they had a special one of their own...
Well I watche3d Button Moon for the first time in about 15 years. I have to it rules...full of inuendo that you obviously dont get when you are 5 years old... I also loved jayce and the wheeled warriors...(is that right??) and She-Ra... Get Along Gang, Hitch hikers guide, James the cat Rainbow brite... and Rainbow.... The best catoon I have ever watched was *Mysterious cities of Gold*. oh and I loved Thundercats.
