I tried to relive some of my childhood by downloading some older cartoons, like Duck Tales and Darkwing Duck. They are not as good as I remember :(
I rewatched some Tiny Toons episodes a while back, and thought that overall they held up well, ignoring the dated references. Animaniacs held up better, but the references still show their age.
I don't think it's the cartoons being "not as good", rather it's that they aren't geared towards adults.
Obviously. But I feel like they would have scratched some nostalgia itch.
This is, unfortunately, part of nostalgia itself. There's a rare gem that is as good as you remember, but for the most part, your brain lies to you.
This doesn't mean you shouldn't revisit things, just prepare your expectations.
Yeah, it's always a pleasant surprise on the rare occasion whenever the opposite is true.
Protip: Rewatch Spongebob and Invader Zim. I sometimes can't believe how much funnier both shows are as an adult, and I rue the fact that so many truly amazing jokes went completely over my head and unappreciated as a kid.
It's not even just the "adult jokes" themselves, but the personal worldviews of the creators. The "yeah, everyone is a con artist and an asshole" bits just don't hit the same as a kid lol
episodes
Highly recommend Chocolate With Nuts for Spongebob, and Battle of the Planets for Zim
You gotta find the right setting first. Like sitting crisscross at the coffee table eating a bowl of Cookie Crisp or Rice Crispes Treats cereal, that your mom just brought you. You have no bills, no responsibilities (except that 3rd grade spelling test coming up), and no concept of the evils of the world. You are pure and innocent and completely engrossed in Batman catching the bad guy of the week.
Hmmm, yeah i think i see the problem...
