Do You Remember?, A place to bring back memories

The one old cartoon that really sticks in my head for some reason is "A Bunny in King Arthur's Court" As a kid it was just silly and all the little details just slipped right by me. Now that I've seen it (on rare occassion) as an adult I now get all the little gags for example the scene where all the knights are sitting around the round table. They have names like Sir Osis of Liver, and Sir Loin of Beef...as a kid it never stuck...but now every time I see that scene I'm giggling.

Same with the "Are we there yet Papa Smurf" line in the cartoon the Smurfs....

Actually -- and I really only catch glimpses at the laundromat and stuff -- but I find some of them a little scary. I think Cat-Dog is funny, and they actually get some interesting points made around the wackiness, but Ren and Stimpy I didn't know what to make of. Not even the crudity so much -- but the grotesqueness of the animation makes me cringe a little.

Ah, well. I liked Warner Brothers but not Hanna-Barberra. Rocky and Bullwinkle and all their other things (Mr Peabody especially) was the best. Talking about scary weird -- do you remember Tom Terrific and his Mighty Manfred the Wonder Dog? Crabby Appleton was normal for a villain, but remember Isotope Feeny? What were they SMOKIN'?

two more grear cartoon from the past Jhoony Quest and his dog bandit and how about SpaceGhost. just remberd aother about some caveage muntaint types withsuperpoweers can not rember the name of it. Catdog is cool can't stand ren and stimpy or many of today's cartoon.

Anyone else glued to their TV's 25 years ago today (July 30) for the first images of MTV????

Remember it but did not watch it then thought was dum and still do not watch it now. it's just rude most of the time.

Does anyone remember the first video played on MTV???? i won't give the answer now, maybe later, unless someone else gets it first!!

Video Killed the Radio Star.....duh....

Everyone should know that by now....I miss the old days of MTV though when they actually played music videos and not all this stupid reality tv stuff. The original VJ's were awesome. You actually learned good stuff about the band and their music styles....

I have NEVER seen a music video. I remember when music was an AUDIO thing.

I came to it a few years in, in my mid-30s. I vividly remember my first experience, though, in a pizza joint with a viewer up on the wall in a corner -- it was Van Halen's "Jump!" Don't let it get around, but I was totally blown away by it. When feral types like me come crawling in out of the woods, we're easily entertained.

I missed the old days of music video's too! I can remember staying up until midnight (before the days of MTV and cable) to watch music videos on late night TV during the early 80's.

How about Radio GA GA by Queen?

Remember when music videos came in more than one Genre?

Remember when you could tune into a Music TV channel and actually watch Music Videos?

I remember my parents keeping my brother and I up to watch it on TV ... all I wanted to do was sleep and really couldn't have cared less where and who was on TV!

Do you remember Space Hoppers, the original roller skates that were just four wheels you strapped onto your shoes - oh and Clackers that put so many children in hospital with swollen wrists?!

unfortunately i had both way back....my wrists and tops of my hands had so many bruises on them that my mum took them away!!!!what about high handle bar banana seat bikes?? and skip-its?

I had both too!! lol Oh the chopper bikes? Yup I remember them too - and the tassles we put on the handle bars of our bikes?

Skip-its? The only thing I can think you may be referring to were the balls on the end of a rope connected to a plastic ring that you put round your ankle ... I don't recall ever giving them a name so they may very well have been a skip-it.

Oh and do children these days still play 'elastics' in the playground? I don't recall mine ever walking round with lengths of elastic to play it with their friends.

Do you remember the early tape recorders? I had one and thought it was so cool that I could play a cassette tape on a 'mobile' device - my cassette player/recorder was about 12" long by 6" wide - children these days would laugh at me ever thinking of that as mobile! lol

I have a cupboard full of LPs and singles ... one day a few years ago a conversation came up in the house about LPs and vinal records. My son and daughter, (who had grown up with CDs) then aged about 12 and 10 listened intently then Caroline piped up "oohhh, do you mean them round black things in the cupboard?" - of course Kevin and I howled with laughter and the family have always referred to 'them round black things' since!
