But...but....Bugs was so cute!! Damnit!!! Damn the Japanese cartoons that cause seizures in children and are causing all American cartoons to be remade!

TV is crap anymore. My kids are going to take up piano and knitting. ;;D

TV: The brain drain. If it weren't for movies, I wouldn't even own one of the damn things.

I thought the same thing, the new ones are violent and all sharp edges and teeth. Sign of the times? hope not. Don't mess with Bugs. ;;D

What all did we grow up watching?

I know as a child I watched (as far as cartoons): Bugs Bunny, Winnie the Pooh, Mickey Mouse and many others. I think Muppet Babies was popular as a child.

Winnie the Pooh and Mickey Mouse were always my favourites!! :) I like the old Mickey...steamboat Mickey! :)

Can't wait to see Ninja Goofy :o

I love Bugs too and all the big stuff.

I also laugh at Tom & Jerry. It still kills me.

I grew up watching Bugs Bunny, Popeye, Roadrunner & Coyote, Speed Racer, Mickey Mouse Club, Gumby & Pokey, Tom & Jerry, and Mister Rogers. I also watched Big Valley, Bonanza, Gunsmoke, The Rifleman, FBI, and Dragnet.

How are they going to get one of those generic looking, angular characters to look proper in DRAG?

I mean, REALLY!! All the best Bugs cartoons had him using "feminine ways" to pull the wool over his nemesis' eyes!

They need to leave well enough alone!!

Does anyone remember the Snorks I think they were called? They were somewhat like underwater Smurfs. :) When I was at Penn State, we did a homecoming float designed around that theme. By the end of the night, if I heard the theme song blasting in my ear one more time, I thought I would scream! But it sure was fun! :)

"Sing along with the Snorks..." or something like that!

I think John D. had a post on this too before...I had questioned who was the pink bunny...whether it was Bug's Bunny's love interest, and Hirvi was like Helllllooooo??? In other words "you're clueless" and I surely am when it comes to cartoons. [smiley=laugh.gif] So the pink bunny's name is Lola something or other...who knows...

I only like "Tom and Jerry"...the cat and mouse... ;;D
