We're just under four weeks out from our first 1980's Saturday Morning re-creation event!  It's planned to be seven hours, complete with commercial breaks and all the standard stuff from a mid-80's Saturday morning!  I'm getting really excited over the content we've found, and I'm sure you'll like it!

When we get closer, we'll post details on how to participate.

I hope you'll join us on September 3rd!

Have a specific cartoon from the 80's that you just can't seem to track down or remember the name of? You know, that one cartoon with the guy that had that thing and he did all that stuff and it was probably an import from Japan but you're not sure? Go ahead and post as much information as you can remember about it in the comments below and let The Community help you figure it out! So far through personal messages I've been able to help half-a-dozen people identify lost favorites, figured I'd open it up to the group :)

Conversations I have had with various people about Blackstar lead me to believe that it was a cartoon suffering from TMIS (Too Many Ideas Syndrome), but it WORKED. At least for one season. And that's because everybody took something different away from it. It was a He-Man show. It was a Smurfs show. It was an outer-space show. It was a Conan-esque Fantasy show.

Whatever it was to you, feel free to leave your own thoughts about it in the comments below. And if it happened to be one of your favorites, be sure to go vote for it in our Best Cartoon of 1981 Poll!

DON'T PASS THIS UP JUST BECAUSE IT HAS SCRAPPY-DOO IN IT!!! This intro is one of the few glimpses of "The Puppy's Adventures" that you'll be able to find on the Internet! It is a low-down dirty SHAME that The Puppy's Adventures got lumped in with Scooby and his crew :( No laugh track, no wacky antics, just a puppy and a rag-tag crew of dogs on a journey to find the Puppy's owner.

IT WAS EPIC!
