[Meowzie-chan]

-DougDoug addict, right here.
You remember:
-TGIF vaugely.
-Dinosaurs I jsut need a clarification, was that the live-action+CGI Disney miniseries, or the CGI movie?
You remember when it was actually worth getting up early
on a Saturday to watch cartoons. I remember this! back when there was Kids WB and Fox Kids... before it turned into the Fox Box? (my toughest decision after school was whether I would watch Kids WB or Fox Kids. Really.)
You remember reading "Goosebumps" OK, I didn't actually read them, but I had some in my house for some reason.
when everyting was settled by:
-rock paper scissors
"Where in the World is Carmen San Diego?" was both a game and a TV game show. YES. I had one of the books, but it was second hand and missing the character cards.
Captain Planet. He's a Hero. No, hes' not. he sucks.
You knew that Kimberly, the pink ranger, and Tommy, the green ranger, were meant to be together. Ok, so i didn't get into Power Rangers until Lightspeed Rescue... DOES THAT MAKE ME BAD?

. . . Furbies. ARCEUS KILL ME NOW.
You watched the original cartoons of Rugrats, Power Rangers, and Ninja Turtles. Only Rugrats, I don't think Power Rangers was ever a cartoon.
You remember when the new Beanie Babies and Talking Elmo were always sold out
You collected those Beanie Babies. Dangit Ty, why did you have to sell out to movies and television?
Lambchop's song never ended. And it went on and on my freinds. ON and on and on.

You always wanted the giant ear of corn from the original "All that" My parents owuldn't let me watch it. Or Kenan and Kel.

One word: Pokemon And I'm still going..
Before Spongebob . . . You know, back when Nickelodeon and Cartoon Netwrok were DECENT.
When we recorded stuff on VCRs. we still have ours in our spare room. I watch the early Pokémon movies on it from time to time.

Yeah... Only quoted what I remember. Prolly shoulda spaced it out more... oh well.

And which of you said you never read Animorphs? You really hsould have. K.A. Applegate is the WIN of the scifi writers. I never managed to buy all the books, but I have her entire Remnants series that came out a few years later. (course, this was 2000's, and the series was post apocalyptic, but whatever.)

 

[Linzys]

Nostaaaalgia~~

I used to have a Poo-Chi, a Furby, and one of those 'Techno' dogs! =D

My Furby was creepy though. Its batteries started dying so it started talking really slowly in a deep voice, and kept doing that after I took out the batteries.

Eeeh. D8

 

[Darksong]

I was born in 1997, so I don't remember a whole ton of this stuff; just some.

Oh, yes, and I still have a VCR to play video tapes on. I don't use it anymore though. ;3

 

[---]

Wow... this made me feel nostagic...

 

[Twilight Dragon]

That reminds me... does anyone remember that weird Mario movie? I'm pretty sure it was from the 90s... I saw it once when it was little and it freaked the crap out of me D:

 

[Charizard Morph]

Urgh, i was born in 92 and i remember at least half of this stuff. I miss rugrats, i've seen all of the episodes and have the video game. (i think there was only one)

I remember wanting all of the eletronic pets, but i swear, i have never regretted getting any toy more than i regretted getting a Firby, I lost so many hours of sleep. Every time i rolled over the stupid thing would spout off some nonsense for half an hour. I finally threw the damn thing across the room after ripping the batteries out of it.

I remember seing pokemon for the first time in my life, I don't know if it was a rerun or the premier but i saw the firts episode and was instantly obsessed, and when i saw the first movie I cried. I didn't get any of the games until i was in sixth or seventh grade though, and now almost all of the anime seems stupid to me.

Does anyone else here remember Hey Arnold! and The Amanda Show?

 

[Flareth]

I remember them. I remember them well. But Amanda show was early 2000's, wasn't it?

 

[Charizard Morph]

I don't know, i thought it was 90's.
Maybe it was late 90's early 2000?

 

[Linzys]

That reminds me... does anyone remember that weird Mario movie? I'm pretty sure it was from the 90s... I saw it once when it was little and it freaked the crap out of me D:

The lie action Super Mario Bros. movie?

I saw that about few months ago. That thing's insane. xD

 

[Eeveeon25]

I ask again: who saw Gremlins? If you saw it, then I ask you this: did that movie not DEFINE what a Furby really is? Seriously, I never looked at Furbies the same way again after that movie.

 

[Ayame]

I remember some of this... I wasn't actually that old in back then, at all, so it was mostly television-related things.
I remember when Spongebob premiered... I thought it was inappropriate!
I was quite young. XD
