Next year will be 2020... it's hard to believe that the Y2K hype was twenty years ago.

I know we talked about it before but will the 2000's now be considered retro? There is a whole generation of kids these days that grew up with Spongebob and Gamecube.

I was just thinking the other day how there's a whole generation of kids now that wasn't around for 9/11.

remember when kids wb had a spongebob ripoff cartoon by the name of coconut fred? even voice actor rob paulsen stated that it looked like one and he only cared about the paychecks he got.

Harry Potter flicks sure had a big impact on 2000s kids.

I remember trying to watch that horrible show. I could not sit through a whole episode.

omg...I caught one episode of this and never saw it again (I think the whole WB channel went defunct shortly after). For years I've convinced myself that I either imagined the whole thing or was mixing up details about several different cartoons.

And yes, it was awful.

if i recall an imdb review of it said it was like the equivalent of a cartoon in sugar cereal form, sounds pretty accurate to me as there are no moments where the show slows down

As far as the 2000s being "retro" in 2020, let's cross that bridge when we get to it.

As one of the few 2000's kids on this site, I'm trying to think what really shaped the era. Harry Potter would have to be included, the video game consoles and the new franchises that came out (GTA being one of them). Maybe the Star Wars prequels as well?

I don't know what cartoons I would include.
