**Giggles!**
Like most of the kids who are my age now, I grew up with the Scooby-Doo gang. Every Saturday morning, I got to watch the show, but I still think the original two seasons were the best. They had some of the best stories with some of the coolest villains for the series too. Scooby and Shaggy were a bit braver with a good deal more fortitude in being able to summon up their courage. Daphne wasn't quite Danger Prone, but just enough to make the show a bit more unexpected and giving Scooby and Shag a bit less of a chance of being the ones to screw up. Velma didn't seem like she changed too much through the series, though Freddy did seem to get more beleaguered ... all in all, watching the show meant for a good Saturday for me, even if they were the same shows over and over again.
Over the years, I came to find other favorites, many from the creative factory known as Filmation in the form of Tarzan, the Lone Ranger, and Zorro ... not to mention the Batman! That was in the 1970s and early 1980s. In the later 1980s, I enjoyed great adventure like Thundarr the Barbarian and Dungeons and Dragons. Even with anime that I started buying just a year or so before going to SCAD (Savannah College of Art and Design), I always found myself going back to the old school standby.
Back in 2005 when I got cable for the first time (and on my own without roommates!), the Cartoon Network was the first station I returned to watching and they did a whole hour of classic Scooby-Doo! And this reminded me how much I missed this show.
My persona favorite episode was the Spooky Space Kook who's laugh I always tried to imitate and was unable to do, though my Uncle Vincent was able to do and on a microphone was even more frightening! Back on East Beach, we did a version of this mystery for Halloween back in 1977 before we moved to the house with the pool where I grew up mostly. Uncle Vincent dressed up as the Space Kook and ran around (sort of, slower than us meddling kids!) Aunt Sara, dressed up as Morticia from The Addams Family, gave out candy and then Uncle Vincent chased off the freeloaders.
So, for a classic, I asked the super talented
14-bis to do this picture, though the artist came up with a slightly better idea which I'm so thrilled to post!
Ricochet KaBoom! dressed as Velma Dinkley and the PlastiCat dressed as Daphne Blake are exploring the ghostly crash of the Spooky Space Kook who Princess Loonia Infinity dressed up as ... and with a bit of her magic (we hope), the Princess takes on more of the spectral powers.
Special thanks to
14-bis for doing this piece and many more for me! Thanks for putting up with me! :)

Mm ... shows like Teenage Ninja Mutant Turtles will be returned to as time rolls on. I just watched the original Transformers series along with GI Joe at the top of this year I believe. They are all pretty good in their own way.
I do like some of the Marvel stuff, though I have only seen the Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes and the Spiderman one where Nick Fury is training him. The other stuff I have seen are the older ones like the X-Men and the Fantastic Four.

I have to be, honey. I like to think for an American, I'm widely read, well versed, and very accommodating, even highly inquisitive on top of expansively educated and experienced. My job resume is extensive for blue collar work, which my mother cringed at, but Pop respected. And yet, comics and cartoons were things my mother never understood and Pop just often watched with amusement. It was Pop who took me to many of the comic book stores and gaming shops throughout the Eastern coast, from New York City down to the Keys in Florida.
I wish I could tell you for certain. The Spiderman and his Amazing Friends was often thought of as an embarrisment to Marvel as often as the Superfriends were to DC, mainly because they had to be somewhat changed to meet up with the standards of the Big Three Networks. Programming was highly fierce back from the 1970s and into the 1980s. I think ... and don't hold me to this, but until the Cartoon Network and the Sci-fy Channels started up in the early 1990s, those restrictions stayed in place.
I love Ms. Marvel (Kamala Khan), but I haven't given Spidergwen a fair shake ... probably because I find the premise a bit inconsistent, but that could be because they often seem to blend in with Gwenpool which makes me cringe.

It's up on the list of cartoons for the Retro-Saturday Morning ... going through some of the Filmation's live-action shows: Ark II, Space Academy, and Jason of Star Command. For the moment, I'm just picking an episode or two to get the nostalgia feel. Since these are from my collection, I can return to them later as time rolls on.
