Who'd a thunk! Wow, wow, wow...never would of guessed.

It is well known that TV in the 40's and 50's was loaded with moral lessons. but, also taught cultural literacy in our cartoons?

I liked Dr. Peabody and his wayback machine...probably fueled my attraction to Dr. Who many years later.

Maybe this is how we change the culture and combat global stupidity.

I wonder if AR was ever the subject of a cartoon? Found some stuff from the Simpsons but nothing older than that. https://video.search.yahoo.com/yhs/se...
