F*CK cartoons nowadays

I end up stoned on the ouch a lot of Saturday mornings at around ten in the morning and let me tell you: He-Man and She-Ra are not as good as you remember them being. They're fucking awful. I watch 'em anyway, though.

I've considered the rose-coloured glasses argument.

Try watching Spliced on teletoon for 10 minutes and tell me you didn't walk away disgusted, and dumber for it.

The Animaniacs and Eek The Cat were to of my favorites. It seems cartoons started going to shit when the Power ranger crap started showing up.

A couple friends and I actually had a conversation similar to this last week.

The quality of cable television in general has gone down the shitter. In the 80s and early 90s there were programs you could actually sit down as a family and watch (Family Matters, Step by Step, Full House, etc), or shows kids would watch that would make them want to...go outside and play! None of you can say you never once went outside as a kid and pretended to be a Ninja Turtle or whatever with your friends/siblings/cousins/whatever. Beating the crap out of each other on the lawn? Awesome, do it.

But NO...now the world has become a bunch of mouth breathing pussies and idiots. Everyone is either too afraid to do anything or too God damned stupid to think for themselves (see MTV). Fuck, I can't even watch The Simpsons anymore because it just depresses me and reminds me of how awful America has gotten since I was a kid.

I'm just gonna stop here before this turns into a 20 page rant about how the generation above us and below us are a bunch of jackasses.
