Let's see how good your memory is, folks. Can you remember the first cartoon line-up you got into?

Mine wasn't a network or cable channel. It was one of the local Independent stations. This was the one that aired the Disney Afternoon line-up. However, Disney Afternoon was only part of the line-up. This station aired a couple of additional shows as a lead in and it was a weird combo.

They would start with Saved by the Bell. I kid you not. It was that show in combination with Good Morning, Miss Bliss. That's when they added the SBTB opening with Zack at the beginning talking about the junior high days. NBC did this so they could get the show out in syndication a lot quicker. Well, anyway, SBTB was followed by Woody Woodpecker. Then, they would air Scooby-Doo, Where Are You? and that served as a lead in for the pre-CBS Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles seasons. The Ninja Turtles were the reason kids even watched this station. Then, of course, they would get into the Disney Afternoon line-up.
 
Ah, the 80's.

I remember various shows on the weekday strip, but as far as lineups go, I can't recall much. I just know Superfriends, He-Man, She-Ra, Gobots, G.I. Joe, and Jem were there on what would one day be Fox and the WB respectively, as well as Thundercats, Transformers, My Little Pony & Friends, Silverhawks, Ducktales, Rescue Rangers, and TMNT at various points before Fox and the Disney Afternoon settled in.

But the first *real* lineup I believe I got into was ABC's Saturday Morning lineup in 1985. Superpowers Team, Ewoks/Droids, The 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo, and a few others that I can't recall.
 
Nope. Then again, I?m pretty sure I have the worst memory out of every user on this forum. I keep thinking it was Disney?s One Saturday Morning, but that was in 1997 and I know I was watching television all the time way before then. I honestly don?t know.
 
I remember watching the Disney Afternoon on weekdays. On Saturday I would flip around to Fox Kids and ABC (before it became One Saturday morning).
 
My earliest cartoon "block" memories are watching Sailor Moon and DBZ back to back, not on Toonami, just locally. But if that doesn't count, then I'd have to say Kids WB in the mid 90s. Stuff like Freakazoid and Earthworm Jim come to mind.
 
I remember watching Power Rangers and Aladdin back when I was in preschool, so I guess Fox Kids and The Disney Afternoon...though I don't really remember anything about those blocks except the individual shows. The first block that I really got into was One Saturday Morning.
 
I think it was Disney Afternoon but I was very young and my dad always turned it on. The first block I got into by myself was One Saturday morning but my dad would always change when it came on. :(
 
I some what recall watching Power Rangers when I was little so I must have watched some FOX before Digimon came there. I don't know how long I actually did watch it. After that, I got into Disney Channel's afternoon block, especially with Aladdin. I didn't really get into a line-up until I watched Kids' WB block back in 1998 or 1999.
 
I'm not sure if the block had a name for the block, but I know for a fact that the first cartoon line-up I ever got into was the lineup on Saturday mornings on ABC, back when I was around four or five.
I don't really remember all the shows, but I know it started out with the animated Addams Family and had A Pup Named Scooby Doo. I think it also had "Bump in the Night", but that may have come a couple of years later.
 
Ditto on the Disney Afternoon. My earliest memories include the Burger King promotion for it, as well as an issue of Disney Adventures from 1992 or so that commemorated the premiere of "Goof Troop".
 
Oh, while Rocky and Bullwinkle isn't on the list, it's time for the Wayback Machine ...

I watched it after school ... it was an indy UHF station (yes, I'm old). Started with Thundercats, then into Silverhawks, then M.A.S.K. G.I. Joe, then Transformers.

80s action cartoon utopia.
 
I can't remember much. Looney Tunes? Rocky & Bullwinkle? Hanna Barbera? Who knows?

How'd Saved by The Bell get there? That ain't no 'toon!!:sweat: :eek: :confused:
