Oh man, I remember Sonic. I would get up every morning to watch it. I watched it recently and I realized how horribly bad and cheesy it was. I loved the robot guys, Scratch and Grounder. They were the best.
It reminds me also of Bulk and Skull from Power Rangers. Ah, when they left the show, that was when it started sucking and I stopped watching...
Just a month ago I caught Sonic while surfing through channels. I remember it being so "cool" but it was VERY cheesey.
I liked the power rangers, when I was 7 we'd play it for recess. Sort of stupid but oh well. I am guessing it's they get so dumb because we all mature and grow out of it so fast. The only cartoons I watch are the classic Tom & Jerry, Simpsons, Southpark, and Family Guy.
