You rarely see a 2D cartoon these days. When the movie “Toy Story” first came out, I never liked those 3D figures. Maybe I didn’t feel it as a “real” cartoon… like Thundercats.. He-Man.. She-Ra.. I used to love Thundercats a lot. But that sort of movies are rare to find these days. 3D movies are far too beyond our imagination. But still… I love those old 2D cartoons. Well.. a few movies came out this year as 2D cartoons… Batman – The Gotham Knight, for an example. Sccoby Doo… Gummy Bears… Care Bears.. Smurfs… All of them are goners now. I remember me and my sister running to the TV hen we hear the theme song “ We are E..e…e…e..e…e…e.. Ewoks..”.. Yeah.. The Ewoks theme song….
Oh..! There were so many good TV shows those days. Remember ‘Small Wonder’? The story about a robot girl? This is the oldest one I can remember. I used to love it. Little house on the Prairies…That was another one. I think I just started schooling these days. But in the class too, we used to talk about the weekly episodes of Little House on the Prairies… Knight Rider was another craze those days. That was some unimaginable car those days.. the shape and all.. And there was Robin Hood… Still famous I guess.. I think Knight Rider and Robin Hood were the only 2 TV shows which made it to the 2000s.
I remember me being so crazy over the Robin Hood guy…and being obsessed with Hern. Umm.. We even used to drink water from our bottles in school.. saying “May Hern protect us”… The kids in this era.. they will never know how those shows were like. Remembering it all.. I feel like an oldie, I guess.
The TV show makers… cartoon producers, they want to give things for their audience’s taste.. Kids will think of those TV shows as “Not-so-cool” and “boring”…. I think it’s what has really happened. The times change… So does the taste of the people.. Unavoidable things… We have to deal with it…
