(1,186 posts)Glad Im not the only fossil who remembers Tom Terrific (and Beanie and Cecil). And yes, Rocky and Bullwinkles toons were ALL excellent! I think as kids, we knew they were written for adults, and that made them more fun because who wants to be talked down to?
MuseRider
(34,743 posts)but Beanie and Cecil was also my one of my very favorites!
I really truly think that we grew up in the best of times at least until Sesame Street came out. My kids got that and Mr. Rogers

(1,051 posts)Of course, the Warner toons with Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, etc.
I think the ones that cracked me up the most were the ones that
Tex Avery did for MGM.
