I’M NOT YOUR BOYFRIEND!!!!
Remember when cartoons made sense? Whatever happened to that?
In my generation we had cartoons like He-man, Shera, JEM (cuz she’s truly outrageous yo), Rainbow Bright, Fat Albert, Dungeons and Dragons, Carebears, etc. AND the kicker is that they all made sense. There were good guys and bad guys and some kind of colorful plot in between.
BUT NOW… there are these new cartoons and I must say it’s almost like seeing a bad dream unfold.
Owiebear has been hooked on cartoon network lately. Apparently, Wonderpets, Dora, Diego and the Little Einsteins are “for babies” now.
But seriously… have you ever sat down and watched these *new* cartoons? I recently had the … erm.. pleasure? of sitting down to watch Chowder Island and some cartoon where a character yells out “captain!” and I must say it reminds me of a bad acid trip. Like something the Beatles would have written a song about back in the day when long hair, bell bottoms, not taking showers and drugs were used to expand the mind.
I have to say that as much as I loathed having the Backyardigans theme song stuck in my head all-day-long… I kinda miss it.
Shhh…. don’t tell anyone I said that. I will deny.
