You start to hear the sounds of the morning, the wind rustling the leaves, the chirping of the birds and that’s when you realize what day it is–Saturday! Cartoons! All week long you’ve been starved of cartoons, and now it is your time to feast! You throw off the covers, shove your feet in your slippers and sprint downstairs!
Grab that big bowl of C-3POs, adjust the antennae and plop down on the floor for your weekly dose of animated fun!
This is a cartoon about animals that solve crimes and wear t-shirts that have different messages on them–yep, that’s about it.
This show is one of those Hanna Barbera scraping-the-bottom-of-the-barrel ideas for a show. I used to watch this because it was on, but man, watching it now, it’s tough.
Have you ever heard of this cartoon? Do you wish you had a shirt that can display what you are thinking on it, because are getting closer to that technology…?

:02 if that’s a human sized dancing vending machine, where is that arm coming from?
:06 Man, that guy’s face is as hilarious as his dance!
:09 Do you think they are in the Cherry Coke Nebula?
:16 this doesn’t say “outrageously smooth” to me.
:20 I guess if I played the neon sax, my hair would fly away too…
:25 I gotta learn that dance…
:30 isn’t the purpose of sunglasses to block the light?

I was thinking it might be fun to get a couple people together online and watch a Saturday Morning Cartoon together.
I’ll set a date and time and set up a room where we can all watch the same thing and chat. There are some really cool tools out there and seem to be very easy to use.
We can have an online Saturday Morning Cartoon Party!

Yep, not your parents’ Yogi Bear, this one was updated just for your generation, because you know, it’s just what the world needed. Yogi didn’t live in Yellowstone Park he lived in Yellowstone Mall. He hung out with security guard Officer Smith and solved crimes with all his other friends, kid versions of Snaggletooth, Huckleberry Hound, Cindy Bear and Boo Boo. The show featured 3D sequences where you would watch with your official Yo Yogi 3D glasses found in Rice Krispies and other Kelloggs’ cereals.
When I watch this I cringe, even as a kid. I don’t know if any of you out there were fans, but I’m sorry–this should not have existed. Half the original voice actors were dead and I bet you the only reason people worked on this was to avoid unemployment.
As good as Hanna-Barbera in the early days, they were just as bad in the later days. Did you watch Yo Yogi? Did you even know about the original Yogi cartoon?

I’m sure a lot of you do not remember these toys. My brother and I were the only ones we knew that had these little guys.
Released in 1987, they were just little hard plastic bodies with squishy little abdomens. They were separated into 2 armies, blue and orange (coincidentally, I had the orange). They had little interchangeable guns, walkie talkies and other weapons.
They were the kind of toy that you would watch the commercial and be so excited to get 100 of them. When you go to the store and your Mom says you can only get a 3 pack, it kinda ruins all the fun…
