Retro ’Toons




My friend Georgia from work today reminded me of the ’toon, Danger Mouse. She said that, “in the last week or so, in various shows where the characters have had the TV on in the background, Danger Mouse has been on the telly! I’ve seen him in about four different shows (a BBC thingy on the ABC, some murder mystery series, a detective show and in the comedy, Jam and Jerusalem)… twice in one show!”

Pretty cool huh?! Remember that show? I love how shows do this BTW – sight popular culture in other forms of pop culture. The O.C. used to do this so well, partic with band references but with other things too (like new internet search engines and comics etc.).

Anyway, how about all the other cool cartoons we watched as kids? Like...

Astro Boy
Inspector Gadget
Rocky and Bullwinkle
Roger Ramjet

How good were they?!
