Rainbow Brite (1984)
innocent and cute
Since I was born in the 80s, I grew up watching 80s cartoons as a little girl. Rainbow Brite was another favorite of mine, cartoons back then weren't afraid to be innocent and cute, and no I don't want to criticize cartoons of today but it seems that kids shows these days need to be more edgy, sassy, etc. to interest kids.
What I like about 80s cartoons is that they weren't afraid to be cute and innocent. I still love the brightness of the show, and all the different little characters like the sprites they're so adorable and cute. I also like the names the writers chose for them like rainbow brite, moonglow, stormy, starlight, etc.
Its a sweet show and I wish they would come out with dvds of the entire series.
She-Ra: Princess of Power (1985)
a classic
She-Ra was one of my favorite cartoons as a little girl. While I loved shows like He-Man, SuperFriends, Rainbow Brite, etc. She-Ra was a favorite among these because to me she was strong, independent, etc. She could do anything and I wished I could be as strong as she was when I was a little girl.
Recently Hulu picked up certain classic Saturday morning cartoons, She- Ra was one of them. So I've been watching them there, but once the dvds come out on January 2011, you can bet I'm buying them. I don't know how long Hulu will have She-Ra on their website, I want to own the dvds so I can watch them anytime.
I was born in the 1980s so She-Ra was part of my childhood, even though I'm an adult now, it doesn't mean that I have to forget what was special to me as a kid. I still love watching cartoons. I liked the double life of Adora/She-Ra, and how she handled both of her worlds in an honest way.
IMDb mentions that She-Ra had three series but wiki mentions they only had two. I guess we'll know when the complete series comes out on DVD in January 2011.
