Curious about what cartoons we're showing tomorrow morning? Well I'm not sayin' nuthin', all I'm sayin' is that if you click through here, you'll find a selection of vintage and non-vintage coloring pages that *just might* give you some clues about our line-up for the watch-along, in no particular order. Hey, it's better than nothing, right??? Feel free to print 'em, color 'em and hang 'em on your fridge :)

( Be prepared for spoilers if you click beyond here! )

And don't forget - tomorrow morning! Starting at 7am! Make sure you've got your LiveStream.com account set up and ready to go, link will be posted her by 6:30 tomorrow morning!

WELCOME TO THE 1980'S SATURDAY MORNING HISTORICAL REENACTMENT SOCIETY WATCH-ALONG-EVE! Tomorrow morning, bright-n-early (7am here in Seattle, 10am in New York) DOZENS of us will be tuning in to the Livestream channel and attempting to recreate an actual 1980's Saturday Morning! WOOOOO!!!

aurora77 (The DJ Jazzy Jeff of this whole shebang) has an incredible line-up planned for us that I'd really like to keep secret till the last possible minute, but I'll give you a hint - it's gonna go a little more "old-skool" than previous watch-alongs. This stuff is the cream of the crop! The GIANTS of Saturday Mornings on the shoulders of which our entire Society is riding upon! I am legit EXCITED about some of the titles she's told me about!

Today I'll be poppng in and out with tons of polls and videos to whet your collective appetites, so let's start with the simplest poll of all:
