Taking a look back

Often I forget about some of the stuff I would glue my eyes as I watch TV when I was a kid. Sometimes I need a quick glimpse into TV past. As I do, I realize there is no wonder our generation is crazy as hell.

I'm blame Tom and Jerry for my violent tendencies, and Yosamite Sam for my foul language.

I blame Bugs Bunny for CCT's racism.

Edit Note: On second thought the videos are probably not a good idea.

I blame the Smurfs for AWK's gayness.

He was more into the Teletubbies. The Smurfs was a bit before his time. They were in reruns...

When I was at Auburn, Mel Blanc came to speak. The guy was awesome and talked about how they purposely slipped in some adult themes to a lot of their cartoons. He also talked about how violent most of their cartoons really were and showed a few examples, including one where Yosemite Sam was trying to take over a fort/castle from Bugs.

I've got a 10 year old and all the cartoons now are that Japanese shit, Naruto....hugio....Mashiki something or other.

For real. I can't stand any of this shit nowadays. Its all about learning shit. Back in the day it was about blowing shit up, saving the girls and the world. Back then even pops might sight down for a while and get in some laughs.

On a side note: My kids love the shit out of Yo Gabba Gabba. I'm telling you, its really really strange at first but you get sucked into it. Now, I have these f'n Gabba Gabba songs playing in my head.

I blame most of my general ineptitude on Hong Kong Phooey.

My kid hates it when I walk through the room where he's watching one of these Yugio things. I start talking in my dubbed over Japanese movie voice.

Ha, I see your powers have improved since last we met however my powers are even stronger and it won't take long for me to defeat you. Ha Ha Ha

Mmmmm...that may be but you do not realize that I have been in training with the Hubaki Master and I have harnessed the universal star powers. SOLAR FLASH...GO

Dad...Dad...shut up...Daaaad...go away.

Interesting thought. Is anime this generation's version of kung fu movies like we had?

I can remember Kung fu on Saturday afternoons after Soul Train on WCOV.
