Neat site, full of nostalgia. This section has the Saturday morning TV schedules for all the networks, showing what was on at what time from 1979-1990. I remember many of the later series. Pee-Wee's Playhouse, was, of course, the king of all media as far as I was concerned back then. Screaming the word of the day, almost making my grandma have a car wreck....ah, memories.

Yeah.. that was late '60s.  Then they kinda revived it with "Yogi's Space Race" in the late '70s.  Dick Dastardly was one of my favorite cartoon villians.  Drat, and double drat!

I had a board game based on this cartoon when I was a kid.

Yes. The Wacky Races, though from the late 60's experienced reruns on Saturday mornings well into the 70's, which was when I was in my elementary years. Saturday mornings were EVERYTHING to a young kid back then, there were no other options. I would wake up, tune in while eating two big bowls of cereal, and watch show after show until heading out to spend the afternoon playing with friends. Sid and Marty Krofft rules 70's Saturday morning live-action shows. Lidsville, Sigmund and the Seamonsters, Land of the Lost, Wonderbug, I watched 'em all. Lidsville was one of the most bizarro psychedelic, nearly nightmare-inducing kids shows ever made, a show about a kid who fell into a giant magician's hat and entered an alternate world full of talking hats. Each hat was a caricature of it's type: the cowboy hat acted like a cowboy, the fedora acted like a cartoon gangster. All of this was through puppetry and costumes, all live-action. No animation. When watching Sid and Marty Krofft shows you just knew that they were LSD-tripping hippies from the 60's that started making kids shows.

Ah, the memories are flooding back. I think Sigmund and the Seamonsters and Land of the Lost were my favorites of the day. The 1980's had great Saturday morning shows, but nothing beats the psychedelic shows of the 1970's. Who needed drugs when you could just watch those shows?
I don't always talk about bad movies, but when I do, I prefer badmovies.org
