I don't think the movement for children's entertainment to teach a lesson or moral is a phenomenon that started in the 90s. G.I. Joe and He-Man tacked those PSAs on to the end of their shows. In the 90's they just added the "e/i" tag to shows that tried to teach kids something.

All I know is that they took off Freakazoid and Road Rovers for Captain Planet and Channel Umptee-3. Apparently in the fall of 1997, the FCC passed a law requiring there to be three hours a week of educational children's programming on every station.

Oh yeah, and today Cookie Monster no longer eats cookies and Ronald McDonald has to wear a track suit.

What kind of time warp do you live in? Captain Planet was on TV years before any of those shows.

I remember hearing about that when it happened. I was an adult by then though. Oh and don't bother explaining what you just said to the two dumb shits above this post. You couldn't have said it any better and explaining something so simple to them wouldn't help anyways.

also if you had read my post, I was confirming that the two shows aired during the same time frame for at least a year.

Yes, I made a mistake with the shows there. My bad.

Anyway, it's probably also that line of thinking (put in some kid message) that gave us those "Sailor Moon Says" bits.

Well yes, but I did make the mistake.

Anyway, how old are you if you were an adult in 1996? That year, I would have just been starting middle school.

I was born in 1970. And what you said was that they took Freakazoid and Honk Kong Phooey off of your tv schedule and replaced them with Captain Planet and other things.

It doesn't matter when they were created or canceled. It still can happen just like you said.

Yeah, it sure can happen that way. Too bad ZQ confirmed that it didn't.

I thought this thread was about 80's remakes, not 90's abortions.

Interpret it however you like.

And what other remakes do you think there should be then?
