Gummi Bears
The Smurfs had the gravitational pull of the schedule, yet Gummi Bears was shorter & a bit less juvenile.

I recently posted this on another board about this topic. Ok. this gets a little confusing because many cartoons started out on Saturday mornings then later were syndicated in reruns on weekdays. there were also some that originally aired in primetime but then were rerun on Saturday mornings for years like Johnny Quest and the Jetsons. And then some of them also went into syndication. But to the best of my ability here is a list of some the shows that were officially Saturday Morning Cartoons (big 3 networks) at some point or another. Some ran in reruns on Saturdays morning for decades even though they only had about 20 episodes. I'll start with super heroes Aquaman The Batman Superman Hour Spider Woman Spider-Man in various configurations starting with the excellent 1967 series The Fantastic Four also various configurations over decades Superfriends Plastic Man Space Ghost The Herculoids Frankenstein Jr. Gigantor Jana of the Jungle Captain Caveman Underdog The Incredible Hulk again in various forms that started with the excellent 1967 series, The Marvel Superheroes that included Thor, Ironman, Captain America and Namor as well as Hulk Birdman The Lone Ranger, Zorro, Tarzan all shared a show Thundar the Barbarian Flash Gordon (excellent show) Johnny Quest (ok its scifi not superhero but one of the best shows ever) Hong Kong Phooey Non super hero shows Smurfs Josie and the Pussycats Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space Scooby-Doo in various configurations starting in 1969 The Pink Panther show had many iterations also Goober and the Ghost Chasers The New Schmoo The Funky Phantom Wheely and the Chopper Bunch Speed Buggy Charlie Chan and the Chan Clan Garfield Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids Speed Racer The Archies had several cartoon versions The Hardy Boys The Globtrotters had at least 2 different cartoon series Dastardly and Mutley in their Flying Machines The Wacky Races The Perils of Penelope Pitstop Scooby's Laff Olympics Yogi Bear Yogi's Space Race Magilla Gorilla Pebbles and Bam-Bam The original The Flintstones aired in prime time but in the 80's Fred and Barney starred in a Saturday Morning version The Jetsons Bugs Bunny and Road Runner show (and several other iterations of the Looney Tunes) Jabber Jaw Another interesting phenomenon was whenever a live action property became popular they turned it into a Satuday morning cartoons so there was Happy Days Lavergne and Shirley Mork and Mindy Star Trek Mr. T The Brady Bunch The Partridge Family The Jackson 5 The Osmond Brothers Planet of the Apes Emergency+4 Beetlejuice Doctor Doolittle Hulk Hogan's Rockin Wrestling The Addams Family And my personal favorite "I Am the Greatest: The Adventures of Muhammad Ali" There are of couse many others but these are some of the ones I remember the most. Live action Saturday morning kid's shows are a whole other topic and I could get into those too including the excellent "Land of the Lost" and the vastly inferior remake. But I think this is enough for now. I hope I reminded some of you of things you had forgotten. Read more: knowhere-mcu.proboards.com/thread/746/saturday-morning-cartoons-grow?page=4#ixzz5PiEWGZyhBeetlejuice was a great cartoon. I remember Hulk Hogan's Rockin Wrestling. It wasn't as good as watching it live on Saturday night though! |

Spiderman and his Amazing Friends
SuperFriends/The Super Powers Team
The Real Ghostbusters
Adventures of the Gummi Bears
Snorks
Kissyfur
Wildfire
The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
Hulk Hogan's Rock and Wrestling
The Totaly Mental Misadventures of Ed Grimley
Mr.T
Pole Position
The Littles
Bobby's World
Pee-wee's Playhouse
Hey Vern, it's Ernest!
Galaxy High
The Pac-Man Show
Dungeons & Dragons
I watched even more than those, but those are all the ones I consistently looked forward to. Gummi Bears is probably my favorite.
Anyone else remember The Littles (it was based on The Borrowers books I think) and the underrated Galaxy High?
I also LOVED Saturday Supercade. A block made up of video game based toons. Q*bert, Frogger<--faves, Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Jr., Space Ace, Kangaroo, and Pitfall Harry.
There are some toons that came on very, very early OR on Sunday mornings, that I barely remembered until coming across them again much later in life:
The Pink Panther Show
The Plastic Man Show
Thundaar the Barbarian
The late 60's Spider-man (even then I knew the animation style was like notging I'd ever seen befire and kinda spooky)
Underdog
Tennessee Tuxedo and his Tales
Mr. Peabody & Sherman
I have Tenn.Tuxedo, Peabody and Plastic Man complete collections now on DVD. Along with Hey Vern, It's Ernest and The New Adventures of Mighty Mouse.
The latter is great! Way ahead of its time. Made by Ralph Bakshi and John K of Ren & Stimpy fame worked on it too.
Its best remembered for the "controversy" that got it cancelled; a Moral Majority/Focus on the Family type preacher accused MM of snorting coke or poppy seeds in a scene whete he was just sniffing flowers. So damn stupid!
The Ed Grimley toon was very weird too as I recall.
I barely remember Pink Panther, but a freaking ton of different cartoons produced by Depatie/Freleng have recently come out on Bluray! They're timeless.

I watched wrestling.
But for cartoons I was actually big on the looney tunes...Bobby’s world and the teenage mutant ninja turtles also.

As far as Saturday mornings go, I think the ones I liked were the Smurfs, Scooby Doo, and I remember Pole Position but I don't think it lasted very long. It was one of my more favorite arcade games at the time. I also liked the old Disney and Looney Tunes reruns. I believe I remember an animated version of the Dukes of Hazzard too but it was another one that didn't last long.
I think the reruns aired on Sunday rather than Saturday but I absolutely loved the Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew live action show. I was too young to see it during its first run so the syndicated reruns were my first exposure. Of course that wasn't animated though. The Dukes of Hazzard was on as reruns also on a local UHF channel in the early 1980's so I was able to see that twice a week (the new episodes during the week) which was amazing. Same thing with CHIPS.
