Thursday Thoughts ~ Classic Disney

Andrew was watching something the other day on TV and it had the 3 little pigs and the big bad wolf. Well, he has been going on and on about the big bad wolf so, I remembered that I have a DVD of Disney's Silly Symphonies which I knew had some big bad wolf cartoons on it. He just loved them! Then that got me to thinking, you never see those cartoons on the Disney Channel anymore. When I was a kid that was all that was on there; classic Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy cartoons and so on. Including the Silly Symphonies, not to mention no commercials. It made me sad to think that Andrew probably will never see some of my most favorite cartoons; "Johnny Fedora and Alice Bluebonnet", "Susie the Little Blue Coupe", "From Disney Boys to Disney Girls" Valentines Special, just to name a few. However, when you go to a Disney theme park all those classic icons are all over the place yet the kids today probably have no idea what they are. :( Even sitting here I am thinking of all the cartoons I use to watch. To tell you the truth I am not that excited about some of the shows on the Disney Channel right now. Don't get me wrong, some of them we love, like the Little Einsteins, but so many of them are just not the same. The are missing that "magic" and innocence of the classics. I guess I will just have to increase my DVD collection. Oh well, just my random strange thought.
