1985 8:00 on NBC: THE BERENSTAIN BEARS

(No matter how often i hear it and KNOW that he's saying "Horace J. Honeypot", to me it always sounded like the mayor was saying "Horace J. Onion-F*cker". Listen and see if you agree!)

By 1985, The Berenstain Bears had been featured in a gazillion "Easy Reader" books and even a few prime-time animated specials, so why not bring them to Saturday Morning television? CBS, who was always looking for new cartoons that could potentially fill that ever growing "Educational And Informative" mandate, took the chance and put The Berenstain Bears at the head of their Saturday Morning line-up in the 8:00 slot.

Never seen it? One-line summary: Little House On The Prairie, with bears instead of people, but the kids are thoroughly modern 80's kids.

It sounded more like "Horace J. Honey-F**ker" to me, but you're right.

Considering that Sister Bear's name was "Honey", I find this infinitely more terrifying now :/

I found it infinitely bizarre when I discovered they used to draw for porn magazines...
