Study Reveals Each State's Favorite 90s Cartoon And The Results Are Unexpected

By Tanya
Everyone has their own favorite cartoon, but have you ever wondered if the one you loved most had anything to do with where you grew up? Maybe you just related to the characters more, maybe everyone in your town just had a big phase where you all watched the same shows, or maybe it's completely based on the channels you had available. A lot of factors influence which shows are your favorite, but the 90s had a lot of good options to choose from. Kids shows in particular were absolutely epic in the 90s. There was something for everyone, but

Here's Why 'The Flintstones' And 'The Jetsons' Are In The Same Post-Apocalyptic Future

By Tanya
We all grew up watching The Flintstones and The Jetsons. We liked the contrast between the two, because in one block of time you could go from the prehistoric Bedrock to the space-age Orbit City. They were both made by the Hanna-Barbera Productions company, and while you may not really think that they are connected, there are a lot of people who think that its all in the same universe. Not only that, but they believe that The Flintstones are actually in a post-apocalyptic future right there with The Jetsons.Here's the thing, they are obviously just old cartoons and

We Just Learned The Plot Of The New She-Ra Show And We Are So Ready For It

By Tanya
She-Ra was the Princess of Power, and she was the most powerful woman in the universe. It makes sense, given the fact that her long-lost twin brother was He-Man. Together -  and separately -  these two characters became beloved by many and were the Masters of the Universe we all became obsessed with. She-Ra, aka Princess Adora, was the female role model we so desperately needed when we were young. She was tough, she was strong, and she didn't take any crap from anyone.

The Man Behind The Music Of 'Schoolhouse Rock' Has Died, Here's How He Shaped Our Childhood

By Tanya
Schoolhouse Rock was a requirement in our childhoods. Everyone of us watched these movies in class to learn about grammar and math, and if you didn't, I'm very sorry for your loss. The original series started all the way back in 1973, and continued until 1985. It was so beloved that they decided to bring it back in 1993 and re-release old episodes and make a few new ones so that new generations can learn all the important lessons. The idea for Schoolhouse Rock came about when David McCall realized his son was having a lot of trouble memorizing multiplication

Sure, It Was A Wonderful Kind Of Day, But Where Would The Cast Of Arthur Be Now?

By Tanya
Elwood city was the place we all wanted to be. It was filled with the best cast of characters ever, and we would have given just about anything to attend Lakewood Elementary School with Arthur and his friends. The Read family was one that we all had a strong connection to. Whether you favored Arthur or D.W., you probably related to both of them on different days. The supporting characters on the show are iconic, and even though the show has been on for over 20 years, it's fun to imagine what would have happened to the characters if

People Are Claiming Casper Is the Ghost Of Richie Rich And We Cannot Unsee It

By Tanya
When it comes to conspiracy theories about our childhood shows or cartoons, we all tend to get a little defensive. Personally, I find a lot of them to be way too crazy to even give the attention they demand. But lately, one has started popping back up and it's honestly too good to ignore. It involves Casper the Friendly Ghost we all know and love, and his relationship to Richie Rich. You might be thinking, how does a ghost comic from 1939 relate to a comic about a rich boy from 1953? Well, turns out people think they are the

7 Behind The Scenes Secrets From 'X-Men: The Animated Series'

By Tanya
Watching X-Men: The Animated Series was a very important part of our week. We all had our favorite heroes, our favorite villains, and our favorite episodes. It didn't matter if we had already seen it five times, because we were absolutely going to watch it again and again. The thing is, even though we loved watching it, there was actually a lot of drama going on behind the scenes. The popular cartoon had issues with toys, casting, and the network, but as kids we never noticed any of that. Now that we are all grown up, (technically, we are still

'Blue's Clues' Is Coming Back, But You May Not Like The New Look

By Tanya
We all remember watching Blue's Clues right? Sure, a lot of us were older, but personally I remember the kids I used to babysit being obsessed with it. "There's a clue!" the children would scream at the top of their lungs, and I would cringe, because I knew that Steve wasn't going to hear them. They would only scream louder, but he would pretend like he couldn't see the big blue paw print in the middle of his cartoon house. This would go on for many, many minutes. Steve took care of Blue, while solving the mysteries that she would
