80's Saturday Morning Bonanza

What started as a passing suggestion one night while watching Transformers, has become a viable possibility due to significant interest.

The suggestion was to have an 80's saturday morning marathon, complete with sugary cereal (many people I know were overjoyed by this- they never got to eat that stuff when they were kids) and possibly even pajamas. This will be a tribute to the comfortable and carefree days of our childhood, spent on the couch watching cartoons that were basically extended toy commercials. Everybody remembers that, right?

I've started compiling a list, and as soon as I'm able, I'll figure out some way to post a poll so people can vote on their top choices. One episode per show (just like real-life), and probably only stuff that actually falls into the saturday morning category.

See, I think it sounds fun because I was denied the experience of lazing around in my pajamas eating cereal and watching cartoons.

I definitely remember old toy commercials, though. I used to watch them and then beg my parents for what I saw. Whihc might be why my mom didn't like me watching cartoons....

I'm also voting we all wear pjs. Just not the ones we wore in the 80s.

I don't think any PJ's anyone wore in the 80's would fit them now...

I'm down with the idea, but I need a time and date in advance, since I am working a lot lately.
