Got Quads?

I was blown away when my daughters saw a commercial for The Care Bears cartoon and knew who the Care Bears are. Then Hubby informed me not only do they watch The Care Bears on Saturday mornings while I’m at work, they also watch Strawberry Shortcake. Am I in a time warp? I watched these shows growing up. Now they’re “cool” again? I’m just waiting for the networks to revamp Smurfs. Or how about Snorks? I will admit I had a chance to watch the new and improved Care Bears and found it to be a lot less cheesy than the bears I grew up with.

Don’t even get me started on Hollywood movies. Transformers? Race to Witch Mountain? The Chronicles of Narnia? I’m waiting for a He-Man or She-Ra movie. That can’t be too far down the road, right?

Hubby pointed out that the people coming up with these ideas to bring back old favorites are people our age. Basically our generation is now in charge of pitching ideas and they’re turning to the stand-bys of our childhood. I can’t decide if this all makes me feel old or nostalgic. Do you think this means years from now I’ll be sitting around with my grandchildren watching a “new and improved” Dora the Explorer? Sounds kind of scary!
