so wait were you even alive for the 90s? (being born in 1997 doesn't count lol). because i don't know how you expect to Get Nostalgia if you weren't around for the first wave. it's like being expecting to be homesick for a country that you've never been to.

NOT op.

Apparently, I was fully in cartoon-watching mode when Gargoyles was on. I remember hearing nothing about this show. Nostalgia doesn't work if you can't even remember the damn show.

Granted, if it wasn't Animaniacs, I probably didn't give a fuck.

Now I'm trying to remember, what channel did it show on? Was it only Disney, or did it make Fox (which, let's face it, is where afternoon TV WAS in the 90's)? Because a lot of people didn't have the Disney channel back then.

AYRT.

Definitely had Disney Channel when it was airing, so that wouldn't be the issue. Wiki says it was syndicated, so it was probably on Fox.

I watched Aladdin, BTAS, Xmen, and Animaniacs around 1994. I didn't typically watch shows unless the boys in my class were raving about it. Maybe Gargoyles just wasn't very popular in my school?

Eh, who knows.

I think mostly, I just balk at the idea of "Well, I never heard of it, so it probably wasn't that good." I consider myself an animation nerd too (heck, I went to one of the nerdier colleges surrounded by other animation nerds), and I didn't know about, say, Justice League as a cartoon until I was in my 20's, but it's still a pretty brilliant show. Same goes for Static Shock and a handful of other shows that were relevant during my childhood. There's plenty of reasons not to know about a show.

Disney Channel was on cable by that point, and not a "pay separately" one. So, odds are if you had cable, you had access to Disney.

Also, I never watched Fox. Most of their shows just...didn't appeal to me.

Philistine. Heathen. Saucy tasteless wench.

Wait. X-men? No X-men?

I didn't get into X-Men until my college years.

Well, wait....what channel was TMNT on?
