The History of the Saturday Morning Cartoon The Afternoon Special

    • TV & Film

For decades, it was a weekly tradition for almost every child in America to wake up at the crack of dawn, make themselves a bowl of sugariest cereal they could find, and plop down on the couch for a morning of cartoons. The Saturday morning cartoon was pillar of the first half of television's history. This week, we're taking a walk down memory lane and discussing the constitution that is (was) the Saturday Morning Cartoon.
