I was definitely the target audience for it when it premiered and really enjoyed it, but by the end of its run it had clearly lost its way. I think the shift to mostly live action shows really brought it down and didn't make it feel any different than the programming the rest of the week. Early on, it was *the* time to see the best stuff; by the end it was just another voice in the crowd

    Given the complete lack of anything worthwhile on weekend mornings on network TV, it would be neat to see if they could revive this concept for the next generation
