Doll houses are nothing weird... I had one. Though I gave it to a friend who really liked it for their birthday.

Does anyone remember how Cartoon Network would stage mock superbowls with only Looney Tunes characters? and they competed by looking at the old cartoons and looking at them like Football announcers? And Bugs would win every year?

I remember that, and it pains me that they don't do it anymore. That was unique and interesting to the highest degree.

If you saw it, you'd probably think it was more a huge box with windows and a door than a dolls' house :P.

So far as I know, they don't even play the classic slapstick loony tunes any more.  But I never remember them doing that when they did.

DIGIMON HELL YESSSSS!

And then the third season come along with the third new cast and things went to complete crap. The new animation style was nice, but the characters were not particularly likable to me. Then the season after that came where they WERE the digimon, and all hope was lost.
 On the plus side, Pokemon died a long time before that.

Whot? The third season is widely regarded as the best season of all. I personally loved it, but I may be extra biased because Ryo was a significant character in it, and I love the Wonderswan games. I hated the fourth season, but ironically it was the only season that I saw all of the episodes of. I watched the first 10 subbed episodes of the fifth season, and have yet to watch the rest. But from what I saw it looked decent enough. My favorite was Adventure 02, but I disliked the "foreign" people with Digimon being thrown in; if they had Digimon they should have had some purpose and significance before then.

And Josh yeah I remember that too. Cartoon Network used to be my favorite TV station. But all their new shows that I've seen are crap.

 Actually, I think they messed up with the season naming. I mean the one where at the beginning the guy created his own from classroom doodles. That was when it sank into the suck. the other were just fine.

 Deja vu, though. I know i mentioned this very same topic on a previous rainy saturday.

Season 1 was really damn good(same with Pokemon), season two was pretty decent(same with Pokemon), and then after that I didn't even bother watching.

If I could, I would get season 1 of Digimon, all of Samurai Jack, and the old Looney Tunes episodes.

What wierded me out about the third season of digimon is how they had the card game in the real world that somehow worked with the actual digimon.

I looked up Jackie Chan Adventures again on youtube, it's still funny.
Used to be my favorite show when I was little.

I can't believe I forgot this.
 Each season, despite following the same basic principle, was interesting.

Oh yeah, I remember loving that stuff. It's a shame how far downhill Cartoon Network has gone nowadays.

Oh, and Rooster I do remember Batman Beyond. For some reason I never drew the connection between Batman:TAS and Batman Beyond. (Also, I liked Static Shock. Not as good, but definitely not bad by any means.)

You know what I really, really miss? Cartoon Cartoon Fridays. I remember sitting down every Friday night, grabbing a bowl of popcorn and watching all my favorite cartoons for hours. Johnny Bravo, Dexter, Samurai Jack, everything was there. Toonami was also great, and had the slightly more mature stuff (I distinctly remember loving Megas XLR)

I'm kinda glad they removed CTNW from our TV package a while ago.  It meant I wasn't able to see it go downhill, and I will always remember it as a glorious channel.

What's a CTNW?

CJ1145: Oh I remember seein ed,edd n eddy, johnny bravo, dexter, and powerpuff girls when I was little. Johnny Bravo is such a badass. I love how he tries to flirt with every girl he meets and then fails miserably.

Oh yes, Megas XLR.  That was also a good one.

Why they got rid of it is beyond me.
