Happy New Years, everyone! I can hardly believe another year has passed. Like I mentioned in my "2024 Reflection" journal where I recounted the stuff I watched the past year, I consider time flying to be a blessing and a curse. Like the past few years, I'm kicking the year off with "Forgotten Cartoons". This was requested by Towers-of-Obscure, another friend on this site. It is called "Trollz". "Trollz" was created by Andy Heyward and produced by DIC Entertainment, and it is based on the troll dolls created by Thomas Dam. It aired in syndication on the DIC Kids Network from October through November of 2005 for only one season and 27 episodes. The show centers on the adventures of five teenaged female trolls (with gems on their belly buttons), who call themselves the Best Friends For Life (or BFFLs for short), who use magic every day to help them with their everyday life as well as battling whatever magical creatures and issues they may find themselves up against in their everyday

I haven't ever done a journal where I reflect on stuff that I watched in a calendar year, but I just kind of felt like doing one right now. Like every year, I ended up checking out a number of cool stuff that gave me a lot to talk about. I'll randomly list the most notable things. ANIMANIACS In January, I decided to finally start checking out "Animaniacs", a show that I've heard a lot of people speak really fondly of. Boy, am I glad I did. It really is one of the smartest and wittiest cartoons I've ever watched. The Warners are a relentlessly funny trio and are supported nicely by a unique and diverse cast of characters who all get to shine in their own ways. Pinky & The Brain, Slappy Squirrel, Chicken Boo, Rita & Runt, Goodfeathers, etc. Whether the adventures are pop culture parodies, getting to interact with famous real people, or just the Warners goofing off, the show knew how to give you a good time. The show is fiendishly clever and filled to the brim with brilliant satire

Back in March of 2020, I wrote a journal where I discussed cartoon shippings that I personally don’t support at all. Here’s a link for anyone interested: I still think the journal holds up pretty well. It's probably one of my more successful journals in terms of how many comments it has gotten. It's always an honor to get into discussions with fellow deviants. However, there are a good number of shows I have gotten acquainted with since I wrote that journal nearly five years ago. Naturally, there are some more shippings I've liked or disliked since. How about I talk about some of those? Like last time, this will include pairings that have and haven't happened in the actual show. I would also like to give the same disclaimer I gave last time: DISCLAIMER: I understand that it's easy to have intense feelings about this subject, because I myself sometimes tend to be a bit sensitive about my own shipping ideas. I am not here to discourage or offend anyone who is a fan of the shippings

Hey everyone, and welcome back to "Forgotten Cartoons"! Today, I'm doing a show requested by NineLivesCaveCat, one of my oldest friends on this site. She has requested quite a few of the best shows I've reviewed on FC, such as "Mr. Bogus", "James Bond Jr.", and "Road Rovers". Let's see how this one holds up. It's called "Dave The Barbarian". "Dave The Barbarian" was created by Doug Langdale, and it aired on Disney Channel from January 2004 though January 2005 with a total of 21 episodes and 42 segments. The series takes place in the kingdom of Udrogoth during the Middle Ages. It centers on Dave, a powerful yet cowardly barbarian who lives with his fashionable yet self-centered older sister Candy and feisty younger sister Fang. His parents, Throktar and Glimia, are the King and Queen, but are away "fighting evil" across the world (though they sometimes communicate via a magic crystal ball or cauldron), and have left Candy in charge of the kingdom as Princess Regent while Dave is
