Nostalgia Continues

Dot and the Kangaroo, Dot and the Koala, Once Upon a Forest, Fern Gully, and especially Seabert... so many of the 80's shows, and the shows I grew up watching, were all hippy save the world stuff. :) Amazing how anyone in my generation grew up to stop caring about the environment.

Watching the first episode of Seabert now, and a couple things come to mind. First, that it's actually a bit complex and interesting that Tommy initially likes his Uncle Smoky... too bad he turns out to be an evil poacher. :( They could have developed this conflict more, but it's kind of interesting that it's at least there.

Second - I love how Tommy just goes playing in Greenland all by himself, with his jacket unbuttoned. That's... safe.
