RIP Saturday Morning Cartoons (1960s-2014)

I never thought I see this coming. Found out today:

As for Saturday, September 27, 2014, after over 50 years, the Era of The Saturday Morning Cartoon Block is over. The CW's Vortexx, the last of the SMC blocks, has shut down for good.

Now don't get me wrong, but even with the ever growing multi-media frenzy that is the internet, with many homes to retro tv such as watchcartoonsonline & youtube, I never thought the Saturday Morning Block would go away. I figured even as an adult that it would last forever, so that new generations of Kids would still get though a busy school week in anticipation for a great experience which is the Saturday morning. Sadly, it was not to be.

But instead of being sad over this, let's talk about good times we had, and remember the shows and cartoons that us look forward to the weekends.

Like Machinima, post in your comments your list of Saturday morning Cartoons, list as many as you can find and/or remember. whether they were animated or live action, if it was on Saturday morning, list it.

Here's mine:

TMNT 87, Captain N & Super Mario Bros. 3, Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, Bobby's World, ReBoot, Tom & Jerry Kids, A Pup Named Scooby Doo, Flintstone Kids, Muppet Babies, Robotech & Galaxy High (on Sci-Fi Channel's Cartoon Quest), X-Men, Digimon seasons 1-3, Beast Wars & Beast Machines, The Real Ghostbusters, Denver the Last Dinosaur, Dinosaucers, Batman (60's live series), Batman TAS, Widget The World Watcher, The Tick, Free Willy The Animated Series, Spider-Man Unlimited, Goosebumps, Where on Earth is Carmen Sandiego?, Red Planet, Eek the Cat, Sonic SatAM, The Mask cartoon, Ace Ventura Pet Detective cartoon series, Super Dave, Tales from the Cryptkeeper, Battletech & Red Planet game sims short films, Bill & Ted's Exellent Adventures, Battletech cartoon series, Exo Squad, Godizza the 1999 cartoon, Men in Black The Series, Big Bad Beetleborgs, Masked Rider, Taz-Mania, Original Nicktoons (Doug, Rugrats, Ren & Stimpy, & Rocko's Modern Life), Mighty Max, Captain Planet, Butt Ugly Martians, Super Human Samurai Cyber Squad, VR Troopers, Power Rangers, & War Planets Shadow Raiders

That's my list. What's yours?
