I love love love cartoons from my childhood. I found myself watching them on Saturday morning even as a teenager. I remember thinking "I'll watch them when I'm a grown up too". And I do.
Becoming a parent gives you an opportunity, albeit a vicarious one, to relive your childhood. We were overjoyed when Xan ditched Barney (I was too old for Barney as a child and I hate that thing) and started watching real cartoons. Tom and Jerry, Disney, the old MGM's (my favs) and then Scooby Doo.
Xan has now moved on to Transformers, Ben 10, etc but it's Xaviers turn to enjoy my old favorites.
However
If I have to watch Scooby Doo and the Space Kook (see picture above) I'm going to pull my eardrums out via my throat and make them into barettes.
