  • Hey kids! It's time to grab a bowl of cereal, a glass of Tang, and watch some cartoons!
    Saturday Morning Cartoons (1970s) | Classic Show Intros and Commercials
    Here are some of the cheesiest programming (and most loved) for kids of the 1960s-1970s era. While our collection does not include every Saturday morning tv show of the 70s ever made, I have to say it is one of the best on UA-cam. Thanks to everyone for giving us a thumbs up and for sharing this video collection of intros with your friends. Your support is greatly appreciated. We will be adding more to our video collection in the near future such as 1960's Saturday morning intros, 1950's cartoon intros, and 1980's kids programs.
    NOTE: I just wanted to say something because I've had a few comments that some of the shows originated from the '60s. First of all, I appreciate you watching my video and taking a moment to comment! Secondly, while some of the shows originated prior to the '70s, they were all broadcast during the '70s as well. I also know that I left some shows out. Unfortunately, I just didn't happen to have access to them for this video.
    Thanks to all who left kind remarks, thumbs up, and shared memories!
    Oh, one last thing. Some have taken offense to the inclusion of Bill Cosby. I'm not here to make judgements, but there's no denying that Fat Albert was very popular at the time. The way I see it, we have to take the good and the bad in our shared history. Fat Albert was one of the good things he did with his life. Cosby's personal actions were a tragedy for all of us.
    NOTE: A recent copyright claim against the Hudson Brothers portion of our video caused UA-cam to block our entire video (after over 500,000 views) from publication. Therefore, we had to trim that from the video. This will depreciate the value of the video ....sorry. :(

      @@2007cgarza Don’t be so sure. Culture is not and endless progression of good art and fine literature. There are objectively good and bad things. The early 20th century produced a type of entrepreneurial, creative and adventurous person. Those couple generations made really great movies, television and other media. Kids will of course always be enjoy childhood as long as they are well taken care of. As far as content goes……we no longer produce art that inspires, entertains and enriches while making money. We had a good thing going and we let it die.

    In my humble opine, I call the 1970s "The Last American Decade". Childhood Saturday mornings were sugary cereals, cartoons, and going outside to ride bikes and play with your friends ALL DAY. Have lunch at whoever's house or host, didn't matter, because my MomnDad knew your MomnDad, because we all went to school together. We came inside when the street lights came on, but what I loved most was that my MomnDad and my friends MomnDad could come out the house and whistle or call for us to come Home, and we'd bust out for the house after an amazing day knowing we'd do the same thing tomorrow. How Blessed we were.

      Same here. Nothing in the adult world can ever, ever compare to Saturday mornings of childhood in the 70s. Sitting on the floor in front of the TV with a great big bowl of Count Chocula and watching Bugs Bunny Road Runner, Superfriends Hour, Tarzan, and all the rest. No school. Nice weather outside. BMX bike in the garage waiting for me to jump on and go meet up with my friends to hang around outside all day until it got dark. Today's kids will never understand how great we had it. There are certain films that capture a little of that magic. The Goonies, Stephen King's IT, and Stranger Things all do it perfectly. Nothing can ever compare to childhood in the 70s and 80s.

    Everything was talked about behind closed doors, doors unlocked were safe, playing outside when the night street came on, walking barefoot in any store, price of candy for pennies, drinking the real coke from glass bottles and watching cartoons. Those were days that if anything was wrong just turn on the television or go outside and ride your bike. Problems happen but no one noticed as much as it is today. 70’s people took more time to talk and it showed by looking out your door or watching the older generation stop on the way to their work day. Yes things/ world has changed. Watching television now it’s on every commercial about life insurance or how to lose weight. Even the cartoons are just totally out there not making any sense to us adults. Always being careful about what comes across your television for underage children. The list goes on. ❤

      Facts. Later in the 80s the cartoons were geared at helping kids cope with their parent's divorce through fantasy and toy line tie ins. Think about it; every other cartoon had kids gloomily looking out the window at the rain in a playroom, sad because they can't go out to play, with no sign of parents and no explanation as to why they didn't go out of the room. I believe it was code for "mom and dad are fighting", and then enter beings from another universe that took the kids away with them, and they always got home before anyone noticed they were gone. This was Gen X.

    Later, going outside to ride by Schwinn bike with extra forks on it to stretch it out like a chopper, complete with sissy bar and banana seat with clothes pins attaching old baseball cards to the spokes to make it sound like a motorcycle.

      I was seven years old and waiting for
      "Jonny Quest" to come on Sat. morning.
      Now, (as a Sociology professor) I look at
      these cartoons through a different lens.
      "Race Banner", (the blonde, action-hero)
      remains, (to me) as equally problematic as
      "Haji", the turban-wearing Indian kid, who was solely a playmate Jonny.
      The innocence of my youth, (while I was too young to know it) was being throughly indoctrinated with American notions of race.
      So much more to say on this topic.

    Born in 1967. Yes, Saturday mornings were great if you were a kid! All those clever, creative Bugs Bunny cartoons and other shows like Land of the Lost, Dinky Dog, and Shazam. Remember how we turned on the TV on Saturday mornings, kept the volume low so as not to wake the rest of the family, and had to adjust the antenna that was affixed to the roof in order to get the best reception? Once that was done, we plopped down with our big bowl of Super Sugar Crisp cereal and watched the toons. And who can forget the little news segments every half hour on CBS during cartoons called “In the News.” If we wanted to learn more about what we saw in one of those news segments, we didn’t have an iPhone or a computer to turn to. We actually got on our Huffy bikes without wearing knee pads and helmets and rode over to the local library and checked out some books with our library card. Or, if we were lucky enough, we consulted our well-worn Childcraft encyclopedias that were stored in the family dining room on a shelf. Or, if we were really lucky, we consulted our Funk and Wagnalls encyclopedias! Life was so much freer and fun. Cereal boxes had prizes in them and some even had 45 RPM records on the back that you could cut out and play on your record player! Kids today don’t even know what record players are! Boxes of Cracker Jack actually had real prizes in them like spinning tops, mini pinball games, and working compasses. The “Wizard of Oz” came on every March on the local CBS TV station and it was a yearly ritual to sit down and watch it. If you missed it, you had to wait a whole year in order to see it again - no videotapes, DVDs, or on-demand TV in those days! Nobody had peanut allergies or gluten allergies, and nobody was afflicted with ADD or ADHD or ADHJKD or ABHJM like kids are today. We weren’t scolded for playing “Cowboys and Indians” nor for sitting Indian-style on the floor while in school. We were allowed to play “Tag” with somebody designated as “It.” We were also allowed to play dodgeball, and nobody ever thought about shooting up the school. We joined social and civic organizations like DeMolay and Rainbow Girls. Nobody was obsessing over what their pronouns should be. Boys didn’t want to join the Girl Scouts, and girls didn’t want to join the Boy Scouts. We subscribed to children’s magazines like National Geographic’s World magazine or Dynamite or the Weekly Reader. Kids today seem to be shielded and stunted in so many ways. Most of them come from divorced homes with angry step-parents and step-siblings mired in all kinds of drama, hate, discontent, and negativity. Oh well - time marches on, society changes, and there’s nothing we can do about it. Keep the childhood memories alive and be thankful and grateful that we lived and grew up in the 1970s.
