Wow, I somehow managed to miss this in 1985.

I think I made a point of missing this in '85.

Sweet very cool. Brings back memories.

It's so funny / odd to remember this but when I was a kid my Dad was a "1 channel and leave it" guy. All of my Saturday mornings were spent on ABC.

On a side note, am I the only one who found it odd that the PBS station didn't have any kid oriented Saturday morning programming considering their regular line up back then?

[jwyblejr]

I had no interest in cartoons back then. I slept late on Saturdays. Needed the rest from high school.

I was born in '73, so 1985 was right about when I'd stopped watching Saturday Morning Cartoons with any sort of regularity. But I'd still watch the specials like this when they'd come on out of curiosity. And really, I never stopped watching cartoons, but I cared more about the old classics rather than the sillier new cartoons coming out when I was in junior high.

I wish more of these had survived from the 70's. I remember watching these with a TV guide in hand, circling the shows I planned to watch, mapping out my Saturday morning.

Wow, that has the feel, style, clothes and music of 1985. Spot on.
People don't seem to recall how bad the 80's were when it came to fashion and music as well..well the those things that were in the limelight. The transitional period of post punk/new wave underground fashion to the public and synth DX7 tacky sounds.

Man,I remember I couldnt wait until the Friday preview shows for cartoons.I graduated in 85 so I wasnt watching at this point,but back in 70s I was all about it.

[huedell]

I coulda handled a BLAIR & RUDY sitcom for at least a few episodes.

[kingdom warrior]

Oh Man.......that Sucked.....lol NBC had horrible cartoons....

[Earth 2 Chris]

I was mainly an ABC guy. They had Super Friends and Scooby, although I did migrate to NBC for Spidey and Friends, Chipmunks and Smurfs.
