Hey, I Don't Remember This Show: "Muppet Babies"

Back in the 1980s, there was this big trend toward taking the classic characters of yesterday's children's shows and juvenilizing them to provide Saturday morning cartoons for a still younger audience. Of all those efforts, this was perhaps the most famous. Fortunately, I was too old to watch cartoons back then.

Unfortunately, they didn't seem to give a damn whether people liked these shows or not. Of course, nowadays, the idea of Saturday morning cartoons seems as old-fashioned as hay-rides but still it was a great idea while it lasted. Except for shows like this.
