80s Cartoons – 25 Totally Rad Intros
Saturday mornings in the 80s meant one thing: cartoons. Millions of American kids got up, fixed a bowl of cereal, and plopped down in front of the TV for a morning of animated bliss. By the power of Grayskull, I declare this montage of 25 80s cartoon intros totally rad.

The Cosby Sweater Returns
