In yet another sign that the apocalypse is surely upon us, Fox has announced they will no longer air children's programming on Saturday morning. Instead, you will be treated to hours of mind numbing infomercials.As a kid, Saturday morning cartoons were the gas tank for my imagination. They led to hours of reinactment in the woods out back...Snake Eyes slipping into COBRA base, being chased by Sleestak or saving Polly Pureheart.
At least, it is Fox, which airs my least favorite line up; Biker Mice from Mars...really? This does signal the end of the Turtles, who apparently are returning to the sewer, to draw unemployment, rather than being featured in a Ginsu infomercial.
My favorite Saturday morning programs were the Superfriends and Land of the Lost. What are your favorite Saturday Morning programs?

I'm from a slightly different age group, but my favorites back then were Scooby Doo, Captain Caveman, The Jetsons, and Bugs Bunny.

Brian, Turtles has moved to the CW. They are still going to be on. Fox's cartoons merged with the CW to create one great morning of cartoons. The turltes are leaving the future and returning to present time. I read about in EW. Aslo my favorite was G.I. Joe, Thundercats, Superfriends, and I loved Batman the Animated Series.
I loved TMNT, GI Joe, all the Disney cartoons like Tale Spin & Duck Tales, and of course Captain Planet
