BoTVC Round 1 - Lion-O Def. SpongeBob SquarePants

[Simulacrum]

Whoops... I always thought his name was Lionelle.

I guess that's kind of a sissy name for the head of the thundercats.

SNARF!

SNARF!

Can't believe I forgot about Pinky & The Brain. We DVR that show and watch it all the time.

Why aren't there good kids shows like this on anymore?

I'll talk with my brother about that all the time. If you grew up as a pre-teen in the 80s, you lived in the Golden Era of cartoon television. You had He-Man, Transformers, Smurfs, Thundercats, Voltron, GI Joe... And those are just the ones I can name off the top of my head. There was a brief blossom in the 90s with the new Batman, Animaniacs, Superman... The WB lineup. But it wasn't nearly as robust as the stuff from the 80s.

Was a battle of the video games ever done? Although Goldeneye would probably win hands down. Or Mike Tyson's Punch Out.

-- Come on! They have one female servicing a large group of males. That implies a species that lays eggs.
-- Oh my God, you're crazy! They're so obviously mammals!
-- Please! She'd be in estrus 24/7 if she didn't lay eggs.
-- Smurfs don't lay eggs! I won't tell you this again! Papa Smurf has a f***ing beard! They're mammals!

I was 5 or 6 in the glory days of those 80's cartoons. My first lunch pail in kindergarten was that of He-Man. I probably enjoyed those shows but wish I was a bit older so I could remember them better.

In circa 1989-1993 there was Tiny Toon Adventures. I remember that show fondly, and after that was the WB lineup of Animaniacs, Earthworm Jim, Freakazoid, and later the spinoff of Pinky & The Brain. At that time, Fox had Power Rangers & VR Troopers, but by then I was 10 or 11 and some of those shows wore out their welcome after half a season in my opinion, except for Animaniacs and Pinky & The Brain. I loved the original Batman animated series.

I still love Animaniacs, and I'm in my 30's.

Helloooooo Nurse!
