What Happened to Saturday Morning Cartoons?

29 min•14 april 2021

Saturday morning cartoons were a beloved institution--so why did they disappear? This is a look at the cherished time slot that has its roots in commercialism and marketing.

We'll look at why they first started on Saturday mornings, why they became a marketer's dream, and how the FCC--and a few other things--led to their demise. We'll also look at why there was an explosion of new cartoons in the 80s and why we have Ronald Reagan to thank for that.
