Do you remember Saturday mornings glued to the TV, a bowl of sugary cereal in hand? On this episode of Entertain This!, we're taking a nostalgic trip down memory lane to dust off some of the animated gems that time (and perhaps a few too many reboots) might have forgotten!

Join us as we dive deep into the vibrant, weird, and sometimes wonderfully bizarre world of children's cartoons from the 1980s and 1990s. We're talking beyond the usual suspects like He-Man or Rugrats! Get ready to gasp, "Oh my gosh, I remember that!" as we unearth:

* The Obscure Heroes: Do you recall the adventures of BraveStarr in New Texas?

* The Quirky Concepts: Remember body-shaping fun of The Centurions?

* The One-Season Wonders: Some shows like Pirates of Dark Water burned brightly but briefly, leaving a lasting, albeit hazy, impression.

* The Shows That Deserve a Second Look: Were some of these "forgotten" gems actually ahead of their time?

We'll share our own hazy memories, discuss the memorable theme songs that still get stuck in our heads, and ponder why some of these fantastic (and sometimes cheesy) cartoons faded into obscurity while others became cultural touchstones.

Tune in, relive your childhood, and help us remember the forgotten animated heroes and heroines of a bygone era! What forgotten 80s or 90s cartoon do YOU remember most fondly? Let us know in the comments!
