Sailor Moon, Conan the Barbarian, King Arthur and the Knights of the round, and Swat Kats was the Sunday Cartoons in Utah in the 90s. I wasn't allowed to watch on Sunday but did anyhow.
I also remember some girl show called princess Guinevere and the jewel riders. One morning I was flipping Channels and saw an ad saying . Watch Princess Guinevere and the jewel riders for a phone number to appear. The first caller gets the complete toy collection of all the toys ever released.
I flipped back to Swat Kats but during every commercial, I flipped back just to see if I could see the number. Sure Enough during one of the breaks, THere it was.
I knew I would be busted if I used the phone my parents would wake up and I didn't want those toys anyway. Also, I was sure someone else would def already have won. Now, of course, Utah being a super religious state, THe majority of kids I went to school with were not allowed to watch on Sunday either. The number disapeared, I went back to Swat kats but not before seeing a message saying they would announce a winner later. Next Commercial break I flipped back wanting to see who won. The cartoon was super annoying and I was about to flip away when suddenly I Saw the number appear again. Uhhh whut???? No one had called the first timehahahahah no one was watching that shit cartoon in all of Utah. I couldnt believe it. I got super tempted. THinking I could use the big princess castle as like a base for my toys . I almost went and snagged the phone , but I really didnt wanna get busted. I stayed on the channel. The number disapeared . after a commercial break it came back. Ok this time I was gonna do it I couldnt believe that no one had claimed the prize. I slowly slowly snuck into my parents room. They were both asleep, I grabbed the phone and slowly stole back to the tv room. as I looked up at the number and started dialing it disapeared before I could get it in. DAMN IT. I thought. Praying it would appear again. a little Time pass and a girls name appeared on the screen.
And thats the sunday morning I almost converted from straight to Gay.

We did not have Sunday morning cartoons where I lived when I grew up. The only one of these shows I even remember was Spider Woman and that was definitely not on Sunday mornings in my market.

It's weird that I don't remember ANY of these cartoons. Before I got cable, we would watch reruns of The Three Stooges and the Little Rascals on a local channel before church.
Once I got cable, it USA's Cartoon Express on Sunday mornings. With cartoons like Dyno Mutt, Space Ghost, Honk Kong Phooey and more, it was a fun lineup.
In 2000 when I got married, we got DirecTV and Boomerang, and I absolutely loved Boomer Action on SUndays. All morning long was just back to back shorts mixed up from the Superfriends, Aquaman, Sealab 2020, Thundarr, Herculoids, and more.

If watched any cartoons on Sunday at all, it was usually whatever was airing on Cartoon Network at the time. My biggest cartoon viewing time tended to be weekday afternoons, though.

@jkatz Yeah, Dude! I still have a VCR (multiple actually) and love the VHS experience. Thanks! I'll PM you my info.
jkatz Posted on Nov 29, 2017 at 06:30 PM
@Hoju: Of course I did, how could I not? As cool as it is, I don't really have a need for it, since I don't have a VCR anymore and I was never going to bust open the packaging anyway. You want it?
comic_book_fan Posted on Nov 29, 2017 at 06:44 AM
Hoju Koolander yeah i remember the ultraforce cartoon it was cool
Hoju Koolander Posted on Nov 29, 2017 at 04:57 AM
Correction: I mention in the article that Silverhawks was a Rankin-Bass production, but I meant Thundercats. Silverhawks was produced by Lorimar.
Hoju Koolander Posted on Nov 29, 2017 at 04:54 AM
@jkatz I personally mention it way too much along with the Rambo cartoon, but you're right, it was nobody's favorite. Did you buy that sealed tape? Forgotten or not, that's awesome!
@comic_book_fan Yeah, that whole 90s period of watered down violent video game cartoons was crazy. Those 2 you mentioned, plus Double Dragon were memorable and do you remember Ultraforce with Prime and company?
jkatz Posted on Nov 29, 2017 at 12:51 AM
I found an unopened VHS tape of the Robocop cartoon at a thrift store once (in fact, it's the same one you used a picture of). It's interesting because until now, I've never heard anybody mention it, even in passing.
In this nostalgic period where even the most obscure 80s cartoon gets its time in the sun, I'm going to guess this one was forgotten for a reason.
You gotta love the tagline on the Dino-Riders toys, too. Why can't scientists forget about global warming and focus on discovering the important issues...like how to harness the power of dinosaurs!?

i liked ironman and fantastic four cartoons and i was a big fan of usa's sunday morning lineup that had the mortal kombat street fighter and savage dragon cartoons.
Hoju Koolander Posted on Nov 28, 2017 at 02:14 PM
@pikachulover I knew you'd have my back on this one. Yep, KCOP Channel 13 was where I watched almost all of these cartoons, with the exception of the Marvel Action Universe, which played on KTLA Channel 5. Although I think the later version in the 90s called the Marvel Action Hour with Iron Man and Fantastic Four eventually played on KCOP.
I'm blanking on Paw Paw Bears though. They look vaguely familiar, but I don't think I watched it.
pikachulover Posted on Nov 28, 2017 at 04:47 AM
KCOP used to show the most random Sunday morning cartoons. As a kid I liked the Paw Paw Bears. Fantastic Max was very popular with the kids in my kindergarten class in 1989/1990. Anything by Hanna Barbera or Harvey Toons on Sundays was ok with me. Adding Tom and Jerry to their Sunday morning lineup was always a treat. I used to watch Blinky Bill I think that was on KCOP.
I love the Comic Strip. I used to be an editor for the TV.com page until somebody overtook my position.
