80s Cartoons

Posted by Miss Cellania in Everything Else on November 5, 2008 at 11:28 am



A big chunk of the internet audience grew up in the 80s and watched cartoons after school and on Saturday mornings. Now those ‘toons are the subject of the Lunchtime Quiz at mental_floss. How well do you remember the cartoons of the 80s? Probably better than I do, since I only scored 47%. You can do better! Link

    73%. Not bad considering I was in college for most of that decade.

    Wooo 93% (14 out of 15)
    I missed the rainbow Brite one as well. I was probably to busy watching Shirt Tales.

    60% Even though some of those were my favorite shows when they were new, I remember almost entirely nothing about any of them.

    I was 14 in 1984 and still to this day love some of those shows, like Inspector Gadget.

    Funny…I don’t really remember alot of the cartoons from the 70’s…I always wondered why the tv room was so smokey and why my dad was laughing so hard…know I know.

    Cartoons rock!!!! (hey, anyone got any Dorito’s?)

    i got 67% but i didnt watch half those shows back then (was, and always have been quite selective when it comes to t.v)

    100% on the first try. Granted, I’ve never heard of ‘Sky Commanders’, but one of my preoccupations in the 80s was watching cartoons so ‘laser cables’ sounded radical (and dumb) enough.
