Now that there is a little one running around the house I am becoming reacquainted with kids TV and cartoons. As I was formulating this thread in my head I was going to comment on the goofiness of all those Japanese cartoons they play now. I can appreciate the artistry, but they are just...well...goofy.
Instead I got to thinking about the cartoons of my youth and which was my favorite. I remember my dad loved Rocky and Bullwinkle when he was a younger man. It was pretty good, but Saturday mornings were chock full of good stuff. Looney Tunes, Superfriends, Tom & Jerry and so on. I think my absolute favorite of favorites however was the Roadrunner and Wile E. Coyote. I love those signs he held up while suspended in mid air right before taking the big plunge. Followed by the tiny dust cloud as seen from far above <thump> <poof>. And how about all those cool ACME gimmicks? Good stuff.
BTW these days the best thing going is Spongebob Squarepants. Even if you don't have kids and no matter how old you are, I recommend giving it a look. Funny stuff.
So what's your favorite?
