Saturday mornings in the 80's was something special. Get up early get ya big bowl of cereal and watch cartoons till about 12. I miss them days. Today it seems like all the cartoons are anime. The close thing we had to that was VolTron.
@hokiefan04 Yeah I've been watching Saturday morning cartoons lately again after about 15 years and it's the Dragon Ball Z and YuGiOh that was on years ago, recycled! (and all anime)
Holy shit--I was ELEVEN in 1988!!!! Saturday mornings kicked so much ass back then. Unlike now when it's all Sonic and Yugi-Oh reruns with an ample helping of "educational" shows about racing dogs.
I remember all of this! I was 10 years old in 1988. These were fun times, and actually looked forward to getting up on Saturday mornings to watch all of these great cartoons and stuff. The cartoons today are way too life-like, I think.
Also, I think it's great seeing a string of commercials, in which every other one isn't about an IPhone or advertising some kind of medicine. I really miss the 1980s.
I wish I was alive in the 1980's as a kid. I was born in the early 90's, so I grew up in the late 90's-early 00's, (the last time it felt great to be a REAL kid.) but I think that the 80's were much better.
I never liked this show....even as a kid (and I was 8 when this was out) I thought to myself....that dude is on coke. A grown man shoudnt be acting like that.....
The Big Wheel truck...my lil bro had one he played with it all the time..then one day it didnt work any more, but ya know what we spray painted it and I think him and a couple of cousins, blew it up with fire crackers..lol..oh and I LOVED the Muppet Babies..
Who in their right brain would think ANYONE would be interested in this video? Wull, how about...me!
I was busy working in the control room of a CBS station at this time. I confess that I wandered the halls a whole lot more than I worked in the control room bekez the shows were so awful....except for PeeWee's Playhouse, and the New Mighty Mouse until it imploded. But, just like the kids watching, I LOVED this vid for my own grown up reasons as it reminds me of the happiest worktime I ever had..
I didn't watch much CBS cartoons other than Hulk Hogan and the Muppet Babies...man we were lucky to grow up on the cusp of the entertainment big business era
What's the name of that one show with the cat who would come on saturday morning specials and read us stories? One of the stories I vaguely remember is the one where this little boy had a mouse that drove a car. I use to looooooove that show!!!
Boomerang & The Hub aren't widely available. I wish the networks would have retro Saturdays. Their line up is awful. The remakes are terrible, and the new stuff is just a disappointment. Fans should not be apathetic & write in continually to these networks requesting retro shows back in certain timed blocks. My Nephews love my 80s DVDs and stream 80s toons on Netflix. TV Land & Cartoon Newtwork could have a 80s Saturday. They're more available than The Hub or Boomerang. Write in when yer bored.
I was more of an ABC kid back then Scooby Doo and Looney Tunes! But as a whole we the children of the 50's through the early part of the 90's grew up in the right times to be a child! The choices were endless!
I used to have the Burger King Whopper Playdough set!!! I can't believe I remember all these commercials! This was by far my favorite lineup on Saturday mornings as a kid
Holy cow! I'm a kid again. lol I have some of these commericals recorded on some VHS's. The good old days. Back when TV wasn't such reality tv crap and we don't have to wonder what the hell the advertisement is about. :)
@BigTMan1 Definetly man wow its crazy...im only on here watching this because i have my first child on the way...im 28 years old...in 1988 i was 6...i didnt even know i was poor because of this shit!!! It made life o.k. i want my son to watch this same stuff...idk bout Pee Wee though...lol...hes xxx.
@Aestros909 Yeah man...they were really good times...wish i could just do it all over again...Milk running down my chin in front of the T.V. slurpin down cereal.
@Egganopolis82 Yes, He is doing the promo for Pee Wee's PlayHouse. I never imagined he would do promos for shows other than his own ( Hey Vern It's Ernest).
The 80's rocked for several reasons... it was the beginning of "Big Business" for the toy industry and they created a lot of cartoons for the simple fact of pushing their merchandise ..... and believe me, it worked! Everything was colorful, entertaining- a little whacky at times....not like what's on t.v today- Hollywood has totally dumbed down everything and is following simple cookie cutter recipes that only appeal to the brain dead children of today! Here's to you 80's kids! Rock on!
@JPAnnunziato What I hate about the majority of cartoons from the past ten years is the plots revolve around going to the mall, dieting ( thanks to the First Lady), kids and parents yelling at each other, or other dumb or crazy situations. I'm thinking when I have kids,I certainly won't allow them to watch cartoons and kids' shows from 2000-now because I disagree with the crap kids can see in those shows.
@daveeeed99 I didn't know it was all one big theme. The repeats on Adult Swim cut it in halves and edited the "mornings on CBS" out. I think it may be my new favorite theme!
this was beautiful. sat morning had the best line up in the 80's and early 90's. muppet babies, pee wee, then garfield. omg you talk about entertainment for hours. the golden era that im so happy to be a part of. pee wee had one of the greatest kid shows ever. i even remember some of those commercials. great times.
It goes to show that we don't always know what we really want. Back in those days, if someone had said we could have a whole channel that played only commercials we would have gone crazy with excitement! But now we look back at these cartoons with such nostalgia, wishing we only had cartoons on Saturday mornings, so we could appreciate them so much more!
I've spent my adult life buying and collecting all the things that I couldn't beg hard enough to get in my early years; so I guess that means I win. Check out some of my videos on my profile to get a retro blast with a modern day twist.
@Wildcock23 I seem to remember Croonchy Stars tasting like ass though, unless I am confusing it with another cereal. Now Ninja Turtles, that was off the chain! The marshmallow to cereal ratio was 3:1.
stromboldt, i know exactly how you feel. Cause I was born in what, '90? Growing up, I was watching Fox Kids, the old nickelodeon, one saturday morning, the old PBS, I miss alladat.
when i start my beat-selling business this summer, i'm traveling, and i'ma come back strong with my music with a number of elements this time, and i'ma buy dvds of old television clips from the archive to watch, which is an example of the things i'ma bring up in my book of articles i wanna put back together since i lost it. it talks about what the world been missing for years since the internet and new technology been around. kids don't play outside no more, music sucks and tv sucks.
Wow....what memories...I sit here and remember every single commercial and show from this clip.....it really shows where we are today in television...such a shame that it hasn't evolved for the better...but for the worse....:(
Wow....what memories...I sit here and remember every single commercial and show from this clip.....it really shows where we are today in television...such a shame that it hasn't evolved for the better...but for the worse....:(
Strange how quickly the plug was pulled on "Little Muppet Monsters", yet the melody of the theme song stayed in "Muppet Babies" closing credits for the rest of the run.
Thank you for posting this. The commercials are great (or Grrrreat!), especially for Crunchy Stars. For whatever reason; I think there was more sugar in Crunchy Stars than other sugared cereals, Crunchy Stars was traditionally my family's (or rather mine and my brother's) special cereal of choice when we would go camping. And then they discontinued it. Thank you very much, I needed to be reminded of the innocence of childhood.
Man, I remember that Frosted Flakes commercial so well. "Grr!" "Man, she's good!" I miss the '80s so much. Every Saturday I'd get up at 6:00 and run to the TV and watch my cartoons. Garfield and Friends was my favorite. Then I'd go outside in my stretch pants and my hot pink baseball cap, and skateboard or bicycle around the driveway all afternoon. My brother and I had a boom box I'd take outside, and I'd blare DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince while we played. GOOD TIMES is all I can say!
those remote control cars required a gazillion batteries which lasted you a good 3 hours. once it died, you just put in away in the closet and never used it again. Such a pain to buy all those batteries just for a few hours. sucky cars!
haha, true. Funny how these cartoons made it easy for us as kids to wake up early on Saturdays, but on school days, man, was it drag to get out of bed. For me, There was nothing like enjoying saturday morning cartoons with a big bowl of cocoa pebbles!
Nice upload. I miss those days. CBS ruled saturdays at that point. Feel sorry for kids today who dont have that same kinda "cartoon war" on Saturday mornings. Lots of quality shows on back then, and not just on CBS. Id much rather watch all those shows to this day than anything I've saw since. But maybe thats just nostalgia talking.
@stromboldt makes ya want to disappear to Mott and make it a quiet Isolated Villiage stuck in the 80's/90's and not venture beyond it's borders where outside of it it sux major donkey balls that villiage would kick ass the 2000's suck ass
@odog65 Lets build that fucking vilage asap and we will all just watch 80s movies and cartoons and wear that stuff and listen to that music,,,,,the hell with the 2000s!!!
@kcalbraeb I thought that place had 0 people (Some book lied to me) but fear not there are 70 other places with no pop. even a place called Brewster which can be renamed Punky Brewster. I say let's definately build that villiage
@repacementsfan They felt news was more important in the morning. Boo to them. Today's children will never get to experience the magic of waking up Saturday mornings, getting to sit down in front of the tele from 7am to noon and get cartoon after cartoon.
Wow, in 10 years Pee-Wee went from hangin out w/ the Genie and that stupid robot that would print out the word of the day to hustling coke in Blow. Quite the career switch. I guess that's what happens when u get caught walloping the sausage in a public theater. i wonder what he's up to now?
I always thought if I ate Frosted Flakes then I would acquire super human strength. lol, God I miss those days. And even though after eating two bowls I still got owned playing basket ball. :)
It was a pretty cool cereal. On the back of the box were deliberately ridiculous games....I remember one was a "Big Spelling Contest", where kids were encouraged to win fabulous prizes by spelling the word "rutabaga" (which was, of course, printed right on the box).
@IndyX Yeah. I agree. I had that whopper playset back in the day by the way. I also remember they had that cheap imitation of it as well called "Fun Dough".
Have a great night, a great day tommorrow, a great night tommorrow, a great week, a great month, a great autumn and a Happy Halloween! Puerto Rican Love from New York City!
Man they don't even show cartoons like that on the big three these days. I remember all this shit. These was the glorious days yo! Muppet Babies and Pee Wee was the SHIT baby!!
Thank God for DVD though, yeah? I've already got the complete Pee-wee's Playhouse collection. If they can release The Muppet Show on DVD, they can damn sure put out Muppet Babies.
If they can release The Muppet Show onto DVD, they can also release The Muppet Babies cartoon show as well. Other then those two, I remember the other spin-off of The Muppets in 1989 called MuppeTelevision which only lasted one season, which discontinued when Jim Henson passed away. As for that Studio DC Almost Live special with The Muppets, that only had its pilot episode and first episode and didn't have any other episode, since Disney these days doesn't like The Muppets.
So cool and kind of depressing to watch this kinda stuff. Love remembering this period in my life but depresses me that its all over and I can never truly go back to what was such a simpler time in my life.
Wow! Great Job! I think I remember that candy commercial and Pee-Wee's Playhouse was always alot of fun to watch. Thanks for posting! Keep up the great work!
A++++++++
Have a great day and a great weekend! Puerto Rican Love from New York City!!!!
I was 3 years old in 1988! Lived on Long Island, WCBS 2! I remember both Muppet Babies and Pee Wee's Playhouse! Memories I will hope to never get rid of. TV was a joy back then!
I get chills when I hear that "This is CBS." That voice always scared me back then! How stupid was I? :p

Nice upload. I miss those days. CBS ruled saturdays at that point. Feel sorry for kids today who dont have that same kinda "cartoon war" on Saturday mornings. Lots of quality shows on back then, and not just on CBS. Id much rather watch all those shows to this day than anything I've saw since. But maybe thats just nostalgia talking.

@stromboldt I agree. They used to really put a lot of heart into the culture back then.
Now it's all CGI and just plain emptiness most of the time. I'm glad I was a kid in the 80s.

@repacementsfan They felt news was more important in the morning. Boo to them. Today's children will never get to experience the magic of waking up Saturday mornings, getting to sit down in front of the tele from 7am to noon and get cartoon after cartoon.
[Seriously, FCC regulations regarding network children's programming ruined cartoons on over-the-air television]

Wow, in 10 years Pee-Wee went from hangin out w/ the Genie and that stupid robot that would print out the word of the day to hustling coke in Blow. Quite the career switch. I guess that's what happens when u get caught walloping the sausage in a public theater. i wonder what he's up to now?

It was a pretty cool cereal. On the back of the box were deliberately ridiculous games....I remember one was a "Big Spelling Contest", where kids were encouraged to win fabulous prizes by spelling the word "rutabaga" (which was, of course, printed right on the box).

Thank God for DVD though, yeah? I've already got the complete Pee-wee's Playhouse collection. If they can release The Muppet Show on DVD, they can damn sure put out Muppet Babies.
sjm757 2 years ago 2
Agreed, sjm757.
If they can release The Muppet Show onto DVD, they can also release The Muppet Babies cartoon show as well. Other then those two, I remember the other spin-off of The Muppets in 1989 called MuppeTelevision which only lasted one season, which discontinued when Jim Henson passed away. As for that Studio DC Almost Live special with The Muppets, that only had its pilot episode and first episode and didn't have any other episode, since Disney these days doesn't like The Muppets.
