Things would kick things off with "Laff-a-Lympics"
(which was basically a precursor to "The Amazing Race" :P)
Next it was "The Snorks", and then before you knew it, it was time to "Smurf". One of my favorites was "Pac-Man".
"Saturday Supercade" was also based on a videogame (several actually), but I didn't like it as much. I did get a kick out of "Rubik, the Amazing Cube", however. And one of my brothers sure liked "Mr. T". In the toon, Mr. T was a coach for the U.S. gymnastics team (I'm not kidding). And who can forget "The Littles"? One of the last shows on in the morning was "The Tarzan/Lone Ranger Adventure Hour".
By this time, I was ready to go outside. You can't spend your whole life in front of the TV.

I remember when I was growing up I'd watch TGIF every Friday night on ABC-before the fall season started (I guess) one of those Friday nights would be dedicated to advertising the Saturday morning tv lineup. It was interesting to watch, especially as I dont think I watched too much Saturday morning tv.
Ah yes, TGIF. I remember watching those shows as well, most notably Family Matters (I just found out a few moments ago that Matters was actually a spin-off of Perfect Strangers).
a) snorks!
b) TGIF = full house and urkel, n'est-ce pas?
You are correct, Sarah.
Best cartoons and best sitcoms by far are 80s for me. Transformers, Smurfs, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Scooby Doo, Family Ties, Valerie's Family, Alf... The list goes on and on.
I love the 80's as well, Dis. How much? Well, last night, while doing my treadmill walking, I was watching a collection of Huey Lewis videos. They were radical!
I was partial to the Superfriends.
Houston, being a fan of Superfriends, I'm sure these next four words are music to your ears: "Wonder Twin Powers, Activate!"
