What did your Saturday morning cartoon schedule look like when you were a kid? Did you stick to a certain block or network? Flip around until a certain cartoon interested you? Did you build your morning around a specific cartoon or two and then skip the rest?

I most often missed out on Saturday morning cartoons entirely as a kid, but it wasn't by choice. My mom worked every Saturday morning, and I always ended up having to go with her to work. The cool part was that she usually took me to the mall or to some other store afterwards, often buying me a toy or getting me something to eat while we were out. The downside was that I missed out on Saturday morning cartoons most of the time because I usually wasn't allowed to go into the area of her workplace that had the TV.

Whenever I did get a chance to watch Saturday morning cartoons, though, I pretty much stuck with whatever was airing on Fox Kids at the time. That was the block that I watched whenever I got home from school during the week, so that was the block that most interested me at the time.

Mine mainly was Kids WB, with shows from ABC's One Saturday Morning as well.

I bounced around from Kids WB, One Saturday Morning, Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network, and Fox. Especially when anime started to go mainstream.

I was all over changing channels between the networks depending on the shoes available. ABC, NBC, and CBS.

Popeye, Scooby Doo, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Bugs Bunny, Tom and Jerry, Fat Albert, Flintstones, Smurfs, Snorks, Pac Man, Shirt Tales, Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends, Incredible Hulk, Dungeons and Dragons, the Littles, Pink Panther, Muppet Babies, Care Bears, Garfield, etc. Because I was so interested in Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends, the Incredible Hulk, and Dungeons and Dragons I always watched them whenever they were on missing several shows that I probably would have loved like Dragon's Lair, Droids, and Ewoks.

After NBC started doing their T-NBC lineup I stopped watching that block. I would bounce around from block to block especially if it got preempted by sports. After the 13 week cartoon run it's course I'd move on to a new 13 week cartoon.

By 2002 I just watched shows here and there except for Pokémon. I watched that every Saturday morning religiously until it was taken off Kids' WB. I would usually tape the newest episode too.

I was most like NLogan. I had the TV schedule for the broadcast channels we got, and would make decisions on what to watch choosing from the options available every half hour. It changed every year or season. I was a fan of certain shows from  here or there.  Definitely something from everywhere,  channels 2, 4, 5, 7, and 11. Up and down the dial from 6 AM to 11, when the weird live action syndicated shows that I didn't understand came on. Incredible Hulk, Bionic Woman, Hey Vern. Oh I wish I caught on to them then!

But I would still watch Saturday morning cartoons this way if it was still a thing!
