| 30153 | Forgotten Cartoons | There's hardly a week that goes by where I'm not awed by the cool cartoons that aired on old fashion broadcast TV during the last two decades of the 20th century.<div style="font-weight: normal;"><br></div><div style="font-weight: normal;">Another series that may slip beneath the waves is a cartoon I swear I saw every Saturday morning at 6am on Superstation WTBS in 1991, (wikipedia says it was 1992).</div><div style="font-weight: normal;"><br></div><div>Does not matter one bit, the cartoon is "<span style="font-weight: bold;">Super Dave: Daredevil For Hire</span>" and although I don't normally fall for slapstick humor, I found this cartoon very funny in a sicko kinda way, lol.</div><div><br><iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/WPnk5q_cA8Q" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><div><br></div><div>The cartoon series was my introduction to the character Super Dave Osbourne, which most people might find funny cuz comedian Bob Einstein created the character "Super Dave" back in the 70's as a spoof of Evel Knievel the stuntman/entertainer. </div><div><br></div><div>I had No Idea that there was an actual live action Super Dave Show from the 80's because I didn't have cable. It's nice to discover something years after most folks have long forgotten it.</div><div><br></div> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Hjjhgp9E5W0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> | eddstarr | Mar 18, 2016 | |
