When Television was in its golden days and creative. When Children, teenagers, and grown ups would watch this type of godly stuff as well as other shows from around the would and American shows and cartoons. When T.V. was for everyone. WHY did everything stupefy!? I need an explanation!!!!!! T.V. is not worth it anymore.

Hey, in the 1950s the head of the FCC called television a 'vast wasteland,' even though live TV dramas, serious documentaries (neither of which exist anymore) and popular classics like Lucy and the Honeymooners were being produced. Every period has its crap and gems - you just gotta be picky, that's all.

[StrikeJoe]

whoops - the FCC guy actually said that in 1961 - but close enough.

I gotta admit I'm jealous of you guys. This was moderately before my time.

Man I miss the old Sci-Fi Channel! I used to love those anime festivals. The Sy-Fy Channel right now is shit. There's like only 2 shows worth watching on that BS channel.

This was one of the festivals I missed. The year they did this festival I was without cable in Towson MD. Though I saw most of these animes on my own either through conventions or through rental and borrowing from friends. I caught the first Festival of Anime on SciFi and put up some things from it on my channel.

[berserkerboy]

does any one remember the show line up for that I remember 8-man and demon city shinjuku, vampire hunter d and also record of lodoss wars there were some ova's from Yukito Kishiro (battle angel alita) I was like four or five when I saw this stuff and I wish I could find out what anime they were showing so I could rewatch it

[DJVirgoNeun]

Blood, guts, riots, tits and ass everywhere. Those were good times in anime. And the characters in them were overpowered but for some odd reason, they were appealing like Kenshiro from Fist of the Northstar or the characters off of Dangaioh either way I loved how raw they were back the.

@Katana991: Maybe because they were unique back then?
