Sigh... it just isn't the same
http://www.nick.com/all_nick/tv_supersites/display_show.jhtml?show_id=spe
I was so pumped when my kids were watching Sponge Bob Square Pants (now there is a show that will suck IQ points from your head) and saw a commercial for Speed Racer. Woo hoo! Speed Racer back on TV! So, I sat down Sunday afternoon to watch it. Friends, I've seen Speed Racer. I know Speed Racer. This isn't Speed Racer. Some 1990/2000 remake. The mouths actually come close to being in sync with the words. What's that about? I wonder if they will be putting the old collection on DVD anytime soon?

I loved watching Speed Racer, But 250 Bucks for a 5 disk set. Yikes!
I will wait for Cartoon Network to replay it then capture it.

Sponge Bob
Ed - are you dis-in' Sponge Bob? My kids like it, and I think it's hysterical. I never cared much for Speed Racer...

I agree, the new Speed Racer is the pits. So when are we going to see a new Clutch Cargo? (now there was a manly name for you) And while we're at it, how about Secret Squirrel and Cool McCool (somebody stop me before I hurt myself!!) :roll:

2 Stupid Dogs (early-mid 90s) had that Secret Squirrel bit, wasn't as good as the original though.

Hmmm... My "old skool cartoons" would be Mighty Mouse, Felix the Cat, and Rocky & Bullwinkle.
