Playing outside and riding bikes until it was dark... Oh, man. That was absolutely the best thing about being a kid, hands down.
The 90's were a pretty cool time to be a kid. We just barley missed the safety holocaust on "unsafe" playground equipment. Steel beams embedded into cement. At my elementary school, there was one of those huge metal slides, the kind that just when straight down. That was the shit. I bruised my back riding down that shit on a skateboard. Still hurts from time to time, but damn am I glad we had that fucking slide.

The show has regained some of its former glory lately but it's still inconsistent. Yes, Season 8 has got to be my favorite, can't go wrong with Ned Flanders going crazy and Homer fighting Drederick Tatum.

That one had been going on for quite some time in the 80's, I used to watch that shit when I was like 9. I always dug the green slime moments.

I used to go out to dinner every Sunday night with my folks, and I would get anxious if we stayed out too long for fear of missing the new Simpsons at 8:00.

Thankfully my sister instilled in me an aversion to most pop culture when I was young, because I was aversive to herself, whom I viewed as the embodiment of 90's pop culture.

I'll admit there's been a few good episdoes, aside from the early ones I ejnoy - the Ned Flanders going crazy was entertaining, and the Frank Grimes one as well (whichever season that was). But I like the classic ones too, when Homer skips church and his house burns down.
The show turned to shit when they started having pointless celebrity guest appearances on every episode. But what mostly did it for me, was the drastic change in Homer's character. I prefer the savage, dumb, and slow Homer Simpson as opposed to the one that's been for the last ten years - the one who cries a lot, whines etc. Not to mention, when was the last time I even saw a decent string of jokes on that show? Every episode I've watched in the past few years I can sit through without even laughing.

Who cares.
Meh.
I prefer crazy/whiney/overly insane homer.
I generally laugh through most of them. Even if they are trying to go Family Guy-ish with the over the top humour.

Watch Gargoyles now. I regret not watching/understanding it when I was younger, my brother and I are making up for it now by watching every episode on Youtube.
and that list makes me sad...sometimes I miss being a kid.
I watched Gargoyles quite a bit, it was a cool show though my memory of the actual show is rather vague.
Anyone remember these underated and forgotten shows?

Yes, I do remember Biker Mice From Mars, it was a great fucking show. Gargoyles ruled, too.

haha, awesome, I used to have their toys. I never really liked Throttle that much he was kind of an ass, but Modo was cool, and Vinnie was funny.
