is Voltron! I couldn't resist posting about it, because my Mom's first cousin used to be married to the actual creator and executive producer of Voltron, Peter Keefe. He was really cool and funny. Unfortunately they got divorced, but it was awesome knowing him. He was definitely an interesting and very fun person. I remember when we went to visit them he had cool special editions of Voltron toys and one was made of like pastel clearish colors- I remember it being really neat and he also had a customized Voltron license plate on one of their cars. He also created that old cartoon "Denver the Last Dinosaur" and another one that I can't think of the name of right now. I remember he could speak Japanese over the phone too when he was talking to his animators. He also cut the tops off of Champagne bottles with a sord over their swimming pool. Awesome guy.

I grew up with Voltron, ThunderCats, Quicksilver, He-Man (back when He-Man had the little morals at the end of the episodes), Transformers, and TMNT.

Besides, you're too old to know that they attempted to make new episodes.

D'oh!

Forgot to add G.I. Joe to that list. Remember that series?

And yes, Quicksilver did suck. That's why it only had, what, two seasons?

Stage Monster- um, you're welcome! haha

Sorry if my post was annoying- it's just not too often that I see a Voltron avatar and had to give my bit of trivia.

Hmmmm...which ones are you talking about? I remember there was one that just had Slimer. That one sucked. But the one I'm thinking of that was cool, one episode had the pumpkin head guy, another one they sent slimer into the containment thingy to go get the Marshmallow man and another ghost tagged along.

That one was cool.

I remember so many cartoons from when I was a kid. Smurfs, The Littles, Snorks, My Little Pony, Heathcliff(sp?), and one cartoon that was on Nickelodeon called the Little Prince.

I loved that damn show.

I forgot so many. Not all of them cartoons, either.

Most notable among my non-cartoon omissions has to be Fraggle Rock, though.

And Jules, your post wasn't annoying at all. In fact, I think it's rather cool. If you ever see the guy again, tell him that the Monster says hello.

He'll know who I am.

I didn't know that the ghostbusters had so many episodes. I always thought it was a short lived series.

Bad assumption, eh?
