Saturday morning was the only morning I'd willingly get out of bed early. Wake my younger sister, have a bowl of some sugar-infested cereal, and sit and watch the test pattern until the channel began it's broadcast day (remember that? When channels actually went off the air for the wee hours? Amazing).
One thing about watching the test pattern...they always had the same soundtrack playing every Saturday morning. The penultimate song, right before the National Anthem (accompanied by images of the flag), was "City of New Orleans" by Arlo Guthrie. I have that song on my constant mp3 rotation now because, even as an 'adult', that song brings forth very happy memories...the giddy anticipation of all the new cartoons ahead of us.
I felt it was interesting when the two subjects, evangelism and cartoons, were combined. "I don't know, Davey." I cannot remember one moral lesson learned from "Davey and Goliath" on Sunday mornings, other than the theme music at the end. And, of course, that the Herculoids were on right after.
