    I don't even know what comes on anymore.

    What's on now? What's trending?

    Cartoons were only on Saturdays when I was growing up - yeah, I'm old so please respond in a larger font so I can read :drinker:

    All-day cartoon channels changed that. My fav Saturday morning cartoon was Scooby-Doo. Didn't realize Shaggy was a pot head until I got older, LOL!!

    Hmm, don't see much that I haven't seen before, but then again I don't have cable at the moment.

    Only thing I like is The Legend of Korra, that one's pretty good.

    The favorite term of the twitter generation. Also, kind of early for cartoons isn't it?

    I miss Bugs Bunny. Fairly Odd Parents isn't bad and I like Phineas and Ferb, but I don't see those on Saturday morning.

    It changed when cable hit. Now, you have to go to cartoon network.

    I miss all the shows we had growing up, they were violent and awesome. Now if you watch Dragon Ball Z in the morning , it's all edited.
