I liked gen 1 MLP. I only watched FiM for nostalgia. But after a couple seasons it was meh.

I miss Muppet Babies. But I hear that it would be difficult to put out a DVD set because the series is a copyright nightmare due to all of the licensed clips they used. It was a cool concept to use. But it didn't bode well for the future availability of the series.

That's the real problem with Muppet Babies thanks to the unforeseen need to cram in that stock footage in every episode (not to mention in the opening credits). We're lucky for the one or two souls who managed to record those broadcasts over the years.

If there's one 80's thing I miss, it's this game show that aired apparently for 17 weeks called "Catch Phrase". Our UK and Aussie buds may know this show by heart, whereas it's original US broadcasts failed to make the cut in syndication against mammoths like Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune. I used to catch it every weekday after a local station wrapped up it's cartoons (or maybe the news, I don't remember).
