Johnny Walker was on that day because Malcolm wasn't there, but Duffy the Dog was really a g-g-girl and a hot one at that..We had a carnival for muscular disthrophy so my mom called and set it up and made me go..Mom had worked at the station with Johnny Walker at one point..  Didja know Stan the Man was one of the Muppets from Jim Henson?
Also Clubhouse 22 was by far the highest Neilson rated after school show of all time for it's time slot anywhere in the country..  It beat every other after school show by huge margins..

Perfect world.

My favorites were The Ghostbusters, Thundercats, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I only got to watch TMNT everyother week because my brother just HAD to watch Saved By The Bell on Saturdays even though it was on a couple times during the week too.

Crazy how much better cartoons were back then Transformers, TMNT, Ghostbusters, GI Joe, He-Man, Flintstones, The Jetsons,  
Smurfs, Gargoyles, the uncensored Looney Toons were badass.

All the other early ones including Bugs, Tom and Jerry, Sly and Tweety, Popeye, Foghorn Leghorn, Droopy, Speedy Gonzalez,
Fat Albert, Mighty Mouse etc were awesome too.

Now a days it just sucks when I have to watch the new cartoons with kids, also honestly a lot of them are disturbing.

We grew up in a much better time, feel sorry for the kids of today.

Scooby Doo is hard to beat, but Buggs Bunny and Super Friends were hard to beat

BTW my Aunt did the voice of Goslin on Darkwing Duck, Christine Cavanaugh who also did the voice of Babe, was Chucky in The Rugrats was in Jerry McGuire as the wife at the player's hospital bed and was in a Cheers episode. She died about 6 to 8 years ago RIP.
