    what are some things that you used to enjoy as a kid that are no longer around today?
     
    shows like fresh prince of bel air
     
    I just have one question for you...

    DO
    YOU
    HAVE IT?!?!
     
    Cartoons from the late 90s and early 2000s, particularly the weekday lineup Toonami had at the time. To me some shows have aged poorly but I can still find fun in them due to the nostalgia.

    Also electronics that could probably survive a nuclear blast.
     
    90s cartoons. I mean, cartoons are still around but they're nowhere near as good as they were in the 90s imo.

    This. I was just about to say that. I mean, kids don't know what cartoons are compared to what I watched in the 90's. It seems like this is someone everyone is agreeing on. XD

    Only a true 90's kid would understand this:

    i have never seen any other movies like Good Burger starring Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell in all my years of existence.
     
    Last year my family went to an RSL club for dinner and they had an indoor play area for kids, and they had a couple TVs with like Spyro and stuff from way back when, was so trippy

    god
    a few times in the last couple of years, i've had to pick up my little brother from some huge indoor playground and each and every time i've been inside, they still have the old ps1 consoles with spyro and crash team racing being played. seemingly running fine. like... those really are the most resilient consoles i've ever seen.
     
    Aaaahhh! I miss so many things about the 90's

    Quality cartoons on Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network are definitely one of those things. Back then Nickelodeon focused on good clean entertainment; and fortunately still does. It's one of the few Kids channels I'll still recommend. Same goes for Cartoon Network. But I'll still always have a place in my heart for those old '90s/early 2000s shows. Salute Your Shorts, Classic Powerpuff Girls, Kids Next Door, Courage The Cowardly Dog, Samurai Jack; Ed, Edd and Eddy; Rugrats, Doug, Hey Arnold!, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Drake and Josh, CatDog, Angry Beavers, Dexter's Laboratory, Digimon and oh so many other shows that I can't really list them all. I also remember when Toonami on Cartoon Network was strictly about Anime. That in my opinion was the absolute best time, and I enjoyed Toonami and the anime it brought to us; which I think was like...Inuyasha, Big O, Bleach, Fullmetal Alchemist Some Gundam variant(s) and Cowboy Bebop. I honestly miss when this came on at about the time that the "adult swim." block takes over. I personally don't often care for some of the shows that Adult Swim runs in that block, though I am glad that they do nod to some better adult animation content such as King of the Hill on that block as well as they do their own, often terrible in my opinion, content which I won't name here.
     
    I think that the 90's episode of @midnight was quite the catch, as it reminded me that, now with Street Fighter V's current fighter roster... I miss my Blanka. ;_;

    Also, you're dead to me if you don't hear a funky synth when I say ONE MORE TIME~! Whoops, that was 2000. But in my defense, it was recorded in the 90's. At my age, the line between 1999 and 2000 is getting blurred... ; ^;

    Samurai Jack; [...] I also remember when Toonami on Cartoon Network was strictly about Anime. [...] King of the Hill [...] often terrible in my opinion, content which I won't name here.

    A) Jack is back, sweetheart.
    B) Toonami was never strictly anime. But DBZ and Sailor Moon saw the increase of anime in western shores, so it's easy to think of it as such. It was always "action", but not always anime (and Hamtaro was there because of executive meddling, which everyone hated).
    C) They're looking like KotH is getting mistreated pretty lately, maybe cuz of Regular Show's premieres.
    D) I will. F*CK YOU, MR. PICKLES! NOBODY WANTS YOU. AND SUPERJAIL CAN GO TO SUPEREHELL FOR MAKING METALOCALYPSE TONE DOWN ITS HUMOR!!!

    when I think of 90s I think of playing Kirby's Amazing Mirror with my friend when I hadn't moved to California yet. This is definitely not in the 90's tho cause I was older than 3... idk what else.
     
    I know I shouldn't revive this dying thread, but it's worth it in regards to including this with it:

    POGs... no idea why, but these things were freaking awesome, especially the heavy plastic or even metal ones, some of them had the most intriguing designs too.
