i woke up every sat morning early to watch this intro and the show the only bad thing about this 5hr block is that it ended they need to bring this back we miss u abc's one sat morning
Awe I miss those years :( those were the best!!! :) one Saturday morning!!! They used to have good shows and cartoons back in the day but it all changed! :/
Omg when i was a kid I used to say illuminating television when it came on every show and I would try to mimic what the light bulb did with my brother good times :'D
Even though i was born in 96, i still remember seeing this in the early 2000's.
And for those 10 dislikes, go fuck yourself. Disney was better in those times. They actually HAD cartoons. Phineas and Ferb is really the only good thing they have.
This brings back so many memories I remember the shows it would air like Doug Sabrina the animated series and the characters like meme and manny and jelly roll the elephant in the elevator
about the OSM schedule being blocked out for sports, i used to be like that. inside my head, i'd yell, "what the hell!" but being that i'm in college now, i could've at least let them show a college football game, because i'm in the band, and i wanna see what to expect in a college marching band. it's eather USC or VTV. but other sports, fuck that shit. i wanna see some cartoons! it's good to see a lot of 90's kids here.
aww man i remember bein so pissed if i woke up late and missed recess...lmao that was some great shit, i'm am gonna be singin this shit at work now...
Man....this really brings back the memories. What happened to the days when Saturday morings where actually fun? Here's to you, One Saturday Morning; you made childhood a riot!
Saturdays arn't like they use 2 B.... What happened 2 Saturday morning Cartoons? All specail cartoons arn't on Saturday.... They R on like Thursday and may-B Monday.... It's hard 2 find a channle with the true meaning of Saturday.
I hadn't thought much about One Saturday Morning in years. :'(
But a couple of months ago, I was watching an old home video that was of me up early on Christmas morning 1999. In the background you can clearly hear the One Saturday Morning intro coming from our television.
As I was watching that home video the other day and heard One Saturday Morning, I realized I still remembered all the words. Memories came flooding back. Where have all the good kids shows gone? I miss the '90s.
Do kids have ANYTHING that belongs to them on basic cable anymore? After school shows like Animaniacs? Saturday and Sunday morning cartoon shows that featured cartoons with plots and storylines?
This makes me think of Going to my Grandparents every friday after school, and watching TGIF with them and having ice cream watching 20/20 and watching the news and going to bed.
Then getting up early to catch this and Doug, Recess, Pepperann, Even Stevens...... then college football. Man I wish I was a kid again.
One thing about One Saturday Morning and Toonami is that, it wasnt just that they had great shows. Those two blocks were awesome in itself. They both had such a cool, kick back vibe that not ony entertained you during commercials, but also took you away from the stress of everyday life. It was just you and the TV and nothing else mattered. TV just isnt creative like that anymore.
Okay who for a moment forget they where sitting at their computer watching this and for an instant, there you where in your living room, pjs on, bed head still in place and a biowl of ceral in your lap?
Dude seriously I sniffled a lil I miss the 90's I was completely oblivious to the world and it's problems all I was concerned with was when I was going to get the newest nerf product or when the next episode of my so called life would be on :,( or Doug we need time machines I would rather stay stuck in the 80's and 90's forever than be apart of this crappy time
i remember when the first girl who hosted OSM left, to me, the second girl never quite had that OSM appeal and then they made some changes including getting rid of the hosting. If only I knew then what I know now, I would have realized that all that was the writing on the wall that OSM was going to eventually be phased out for something else.
I miss the 90s too! I agree! We did have the best shows! I feel sorry for the kids that were born in 99 or after 2000! They don't know what they missed!!!
I always knew that once that guy said "Illuminating Television" that was always the time when the happy sounding Saturday morning song would start!! Gosh, I loved abc saturday mornings!!
Seriously though, are there ANY networks that play five hours of cartoons on saturday morning anymore. I think even nickelodeon and cartoon network throw in a couple of live action shows that suck. This was my time.
time machine, quiiiiiiiiiiiiiick! saturday's ain't worth shit now, bring back o-s-m! if they do, i'd watch! i really wouldn't care who made fun of me, this was my childhood. go and hate, but 89 was a baby, 90's made me! 90's kids rule!
