I remember when I was a young tyke, catching the tail end of the great end of television cartoons. I vaugely remember Transformers coming to a close as well as the Thundercats and the Captain N series. Then there was GI joe, Robotech, Voltron, Mario brothers, Tom and Jerry, and TMNT. I haven't watched TV, sans a couple of shows here and there, for about 2 years now. I have so much pity for the current generation of children. They are missing out on stuff they'll never even know. Man, I gotta find Thundercats and Transformer sets on DVD now. I wonder if Robotech is on DVD yet.

I highly doubt thats yeswepromise.

Unless that was sarcasm, I can't be quite sure.

Yeah, TV is garbage now. I used to really dig Seinfeld, thats gone now. I still watch Fox News or CMT when I'm at a hotel or a friend's house with cable. Thats about it.

The really good stuff now is all animated.

Well just to debate you. Think about this. yeswepromise's name is brian and he supports the Pink Godzilla. Therefore PG=pink godzilla, and brain is his name. So I assume that it is indeed the man the myth yeswepromise. :D
