great points guys
regarding the commercialism, my friend canceled cable because his daughter started asking for toys constantly
new cartoons are basically unwatchable for me, but of course i don't have any nostalgic connection to them. still, they seem substandard for one reason or another. there seem to be too many cartoon shows per quality artist. i don't know how many 24 hour cartoon channels there are (4 or more?) but most of their programming is new. perhaps the older cartoons were less about quantity, so the end product was better.
anyway, i've always liked the old ones (and they were already old when i was young)
some of those episodes were pretty creative
i still think the portable hole is a cool concept
warner bros cartoons had the coolest music...check out
Carl Stalling if you haven't

ha ha, i agree, it's funny that no one really communicated in those. they just kept muttering inner dialogue.
