    agreed! I grew up in an armpit-ville, with a B&W TV, no cable, so I watched "2.5" channels incessantly (between the intermittently snowy receptions). Thankfully we had most popular 60s WB toons dubbed in French,which I thankfully understood; but, I am more thankful now to have caught up on many cartoons I had only seen advertised in 70s comics ads,or in the TV Guide (especially The Super Friends & Filmation Batman).

          I'm 50/50 with the cartoons I grew up with. G I Joe holds up to me, but He-man and the Masters of the Universe is god awful as an adult. The classics (warner bros and Disney) have held up amazingly well and the rest is a crap shoot.

          We live in a golden age of animation with Pixar, Rick and Morty, Bobs Burgers, the Simpsons, Adventure Time and a few others that are all watched in my house.

          I think Rick and Morty should be required television for everybody. It's brilliant.

            Yep, only difference is I'm good after watching one. Saturday and Sunday morning I watch one with breakfast and then move on. I look forward to it, but could never imagine doing a marathon like when I was a kid. Some stuff I'm able to apprecaite even as an adult (Like the DC Timm-verse) some stuff I enjoy through "Kid googles" (Superfriends). I can honestly say my only disappointment to date was the 77 Filmation Batman. I LOVED that show as a kid, but Bat Mite pushed it over the edge of being enjoyable as an adult. Which is sad because conversely, I've been watching the 66 Batman Filmation cartoon over vacations and love it. Probably in my top 3 to 5 favorite cartoons ever.

              Sorry to bump, but I have been catching Guardians of the Galaxy on Disney XD and I love it! Pretty cool to see guys like the Grandmaster, Collector, and Thanos in animated form (they may have been in the Silver Surfer cartoon?). I like the animated style and the humour seems decent.
