TV cartoons for kids

Once in a while, I'll have a conversation with someone about TV cartoon shows from the 1980s, just for the sake of nostalgia. Looking back, I'd remember so many shows like G.I. Joe, He-Man, The Littles, Voltron, Thundercats, Rainbow Brite and so on. One night I asked my 20-year-old sister (I have three sisters) if she remembered many of the TV cartoons from her time. She said she doesn't. So, eventually one night I picked up the TV guide and looked through it. To my surprise, there are not many TV on terrestrial channels today. Just on Saturday mornings only. Yes there are cable channels with tons of TV cartoons, but not everyone has cable. It's really sad that there's not much emphasis on TV cartoon today as opposite to the 1980s. During the 80s and early 90s, cartoons would be on in the mornings before school and in the afternoons after school. Really sad.
