Yes still to this very day I watch cartoons. I much rather prefer to watch old cartoons that I used to watch as a kid though. I watch some of the most recent cartoons they have out but I don't find them to be quite as good as the ones I used to watch as a kid. Cartoons aren't done with the same overall care that older cartoons were done with. A saturday morning cartoon nowadays is just nothing like they used to be. I find that the cartoons that they are showing these days just don't have enough creativity compared to the old cartoons they used to show during my childhood. I find to many cartoons these days are trying to copy each other quite honestly..
I used to remember waking up extra early just so I would be able to watch all of my favorite cartoons. I remember how excited I used to get about certain cartoons & how they would be on that morning.. I remember how I had an actual schedule each Saturday when it came to what I was going to be watching on Saturday mornings. I used to just sit there in the morning with a bowl of captain crunch or honey comb & I'd just sit there at the kitchen table.. Waiting until my favorite cartoons would come on..
I also remember as well at lunch time.. How I used to always look forward to watching "The Flintstones." I used to sit there with a bowl of kraft macaroni & cheese & just sit there all smiles while watching this cartoon.. I remember how this cartoon was so original & I used to love how Fred would always get himself in to trouble.. And how his wife was always lecturing him when it came to the decisions he would always make.. I also loved Pebbles & Bam Bam.. I remember how the two of them looked rather adorable together.. I miss watching cartoons such as this..
I actually purchased a DVD of one of my favorite childhood cartoons.. I remember when I had started to watch it how it made me feel like I was revisiting my childhood all over again.. It made me feel young at heart.. I just love how watching things from your childhood can truly make you feel like a kid all over again.. I love how they bring back the memories from back then..
I believe & think that no matter how old I get over the years.. That I will still watch cartoons.. I don't think there is anything wrong with watching cartoons as you grow older either.. I believe that watching things such as cartoons helps a person to always stay young.. I know some people who believe that watching cartoons or even collecting old stuffed animals from your childhood.. Is very immature for one to do.. But I tend to disagree as I believe we need things like this as apart of our life.. It helps to keep us young & make up for the things that we may have missed during our childhood.. The things that we're taken away from us if you will..
I cannot wait until I have children in the future.. As I do believe they will help me to stay young at heart.. When I allow myself to sit down with them & watch the cartoons that they watch.. . I know for me sometimes that the real world can sometimes be enough for one to deal with.. Sometimes a person just needs a break from it all.. It's nice to be able to watch a rabbit that outsmarts everyone sometimes.. I love just being silly for a while.. Sometimes a person just needs to do that to let go, to be free.. Instead of worrying about the daily stresses in ones life all of the time..
In conclusion.. As you can see I do indeed still watch cartoons.. And I still do have my inner child within me, & I am not at all afraid to let it out sometimes.. I love watching cartoons as they are so easy, yet funny to watch sometimes.. I love how when a person is watching cartoons how you don't have to think all to much while watching cartoons.. You can just sit back & enjoy the cartoon.. And allow your inner child to come out anytime you wish to.. I think it's important to watch cartoons even as you grow up.. As like I had stated before.. They truly do make you feel young at heart each time, & I believe that is very important for everyone of us out there in this world.. Especially when you begin to grow so much more older! . .
Thanks for allowing me to share! xx

I'm in my late 30's and I still watch cartoons, my husband and I love cartoons, we watch it with our child. She loves Disney cartoons, also that of Nickelodeon and some cartoons in Cartoon Network. I also watch adult cartoons like The Simpsons, South Park, Family Guy and American Dad. I think they're hilarious.

I love cartoons. I don't think there's any age limit in having a good laugh!

yes, it is so relaxing to watch cartoon and remember your childhood, a time when all things looked so simple and every moment was a hundred times happier then the maturity time in our life.i personally like scooby doo, the flintstones, tom and jerry and dexter.i am 24 years old, now i don't really have time for watching cartoons, but i relax better by playing computer games
