I miss the good old days when cartoons are very prominent on Saturday mornings! Of course they did cartoons on the weekdays both mornings and afternoons but the main highlight was cartoons on Saturday mornings.

[@DanJackson1977]

The rise of cable tv and networks that only showed cartoons sort of made Saturday morning irrelevant. While I have nostalgia for this stuff, most of the cartoons we were watching back then were pretty bad, the only real highlights being classic Looney Tunes or MGM cartoons from the 40s and 50s. The 80s was kind of a dark age of tv animation.

This is a great video on why Saturday Morning cartoons both started and faded away kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2KvgGhubZx7jMk

I think you're missing the beginning of NBC Saturday morning in March 1983 aired during the Shirt tales and the Smurfs!

[@DanJackson1977]

I'm not missing it. I just didnt have it on this tape. 🤘

These type of products should be advertised on Me TVs cartoons NOT Medicines insurance or online casino apps

[@DanJackson1977]

Ads are determined by demographics. Kids by and large arent watching old cartoons on MeTv... its "middle aged to "old" people like us... so they're aiming for what that age group wants. MEtV is also not gonna run vintage ads for products that dont exist anymore.

[@booberry349]

I feel Me TV should advertise toys cereals and products aimed towards children like If they were on a network or local station

[@DanJackson1977]

@@booberry349 again.. kids arent watching MeTV... it's a nostalgia network.. advertisers for modern kids products wouldn't want their products on there becuse they'll get no bang for their buck. 45-60 year olds dont want sugary cereal advertised to them.

[@booberry349]

They advertise Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cheerios Lucky Charms and Frosted Flakes towards adults
