Remember when cartoons were just funny and weren't trying to brain wash our kids and teach a "lesson"!
Oh... I dunno.. You "kids" prolly don't remember but the old Warner Bros. cartoons were awesome for being totally funny and also, in the same process, they taught really valuable VALUE LESSONS!
Not political or "green" lessons... just plain old lessons on decency, honesty, fair play and the like..
I really used to like the Wolf and Sheepdog ones... They really were quite good friends, walked to "work" together, punched in together.. then work started and the "roles" began to be played and they kicked each other's butts all day.. till quittin' time and it was, punch out, and back to the "real world"....
That was really just one of a HUGE volume of very entertaining cartoons that made "our" generation what it is/was...
That beats my hand. Mickey's place came into this world almost a half a decade before I did.
I AM old enough though to remember cartoons like;
King Kong
Space Ghost
Herculoids
Catanooga Cats
Tennesee Tuxedo and his Tales
Beany & Cecil
Roger Ramjet
Alvin
Bullwinkle
Ricochet Rabbit
Quickdraw McGraw
GoGo Gophers
Motormouse & Autocat
Adam Ant
Secret Squirrel
Wally Gator
Droopy Dog
Commander McBragg
Top Cat
Deputy Dawg
Snooper & Blabber
Hillbilly Bears
Magilla Gorilla
Hot Wheels
and George Of The Jungle, including Tom Slick and the immortal Super Chicken (A great name for an unlimited, I might add...)
plus non-animated programs like;
Romper Room
Cap'n Kangaroo
Jack LaLanne
Batman (TV version w/Adam West)
and Captain Satellite (early 60's Bay Area space-themed children's program)
I remember when Beanie and Cecil were a puppet show, not a cartoon. I also remember "Space Patrol" Now that was a real space fantasy program. Does that make me old?

in the 70's there was a tv every sat night hosted by Bob Wilkins...
You mean "Creature Features". Damn, those were the days. I never missed a Saturday night watching the cheap, low budget horror films offered on that program. Click link below for a refresher:
