Why do 80's cartoons get more love and respect than ones from the 90's and 2000's?
>>

They had cooler concepts and designs because of the toyetic nature of cartoons back then. 90s and 2000s is basically all comedy shit that people won't remember unless they watched several episodes of it. Seeing snippets of and having nostalgia for something like Thundercats is easier because it just looks cool and memorable regardless of how much someone actually watched it

Captain Planet gets love & respect? I don't know about that...

But >>152516272 makes a good point. These were cartoons made to sell toys, especially big expensive vehicles and building pieces. Kids would battle and mash them all together, so the shows were about big battles in gimmicky changing tanks and planes or with superpowers and deluxe accessories.

Nowadays very few toys are sold and most of the money is in "managing the brand", ie, licensing it for video games, movies, and virtual merch like skins. So the shows are more boring.

Kek I didn't notice Captain planet was there and yeah even if that show was ass, Planet's design is cool and he has lore. Kids love lore in their shows to a certain extent. Not hints at lore or allusions to a bigger story that never comes, but straight forward, clearly defined rules and roles for characters and their setting

80s cartoons taught morals/important life lessons. Moral courage is the key to a happy fulfilling life.
