| 30216 | Forgotten Cartoons | I'm not at all familiar with McGee and Me. Thanks for the enlightenment Edd. I do know of some other Focus on the Family creations, like Adventures in Odyssey. Mostly the radio theater version, as opposed to the cartoon.<br> | Vaporman87 | Mar 20, 2016 |  |
| 30215 | Forgotten Cartoons | This was another accident, just like all the other accidents I've had for most of my life throughout the 20th century.<div style="font-weight: normal;"><br></div><div style="font-weight: normal;">One Saturday morning in 1998 I woke up around 3:30 am. The TV was on because I'd fallen asleep watching the Friday midnight monster movie. All my life I'd done exactly what I did that early morning, I channel surfed to see what else was on television.</div><div style="font-weight: normal;"><br></div><div>And that's when I stumbled on the strangest collection of cartoons I'd never seen before. One of them was about a little cartoon guy called McGee and his friend Nick, the boy who drew him. This was the first time I'd ever seen the live action/animated series, "<span style="font-weight: bold;">McGee and Me</span>", the Christian Children's program produced by Focus on the Family and broadcast on both CBN (Christian Broadcasting Network) and TBN (Trinity Broadcasting Network).</div><div><br></div><img src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51zAcxKecQL.jpg"><div><br><div>The internet came along just in time to save this cool cartoon series from obscurity.</div><div><br></div><div>If you are a fan of the 80's, I can't think of a better time capsule than <span style="font-weight: bold;">McGee and Me</span> - this series captures the spirit of the times beautifully. I still find this cartoon fully watchable even though it was released in 1989. It delivers it's message without being heavy handed. </div><div><br></div><div>There are only nine original episodes and the best one, in my opinion, is "Do The Bright Thing", funny and well thought-out, "Do The Bright Thing" gives McGee extra screen time over and above the other episodes.</div><div><br></div> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/wXYaOzWudDo" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div> | eddstarr | Mar 20, 2016 | |
| 30214 | Famous Duos | <span style="font-weight: normal; font-style: italic;">Ahh</span><span style="font-style: normal;"> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Crow</span> - if this was poker I'd be hittin' on MoneyTree for a payday loan already!</span><div><span style="font-style: normal;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-style: normal;">Looks like I'm opening the lid on the ol' time machine again.</span></div><div><span style="font-style: normal;"><br></span></div><img src="https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/ff/25/e8/ff25e8cb579eccb87dced0b44bf5e98b.jpg"><div><span style="font-style: normal;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-style: normal;">Hey dude, looks who's here - my old friends <span style="font-weight: bold;">Todd & Buzz</span>. You remember these guys: "<span style="font-weight: bold;">Route 66</span>".</span></div><div><span style="font-style: normal;">A television show about two young men traveling across 1960's America in a Corvette. You'll never see anything like this ever again on TV, oh how times have changed.</span></div><div><span style="font-style: normal;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-style: normal;">The Interstate Highway System was just gettin' going when this series aired. It was a record of the changing face of America. The landscape pre-1960 was fast disappearing. The America these two guys are talking about was already a thing of the past.</span></div><div><span style="font-style: normal;"><br></span></div> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/TRpZd5_AT2s" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> | eddstarr | Mar 20, 2016 | |

The Matrix, to me, will forever and always ONLY consist of the first movie. The other two never happened in my world.<br> | Vaporman87 | Mar 20, 2016 | |
