Butterfly: Smurfs Rule!

Yesterday we were walking through the toy aisles at Target when all of a sudden I exclaimed, ” Smurfs !” The boys thought I was crazy, which is nothing new, until I pointed out the little blue plush Smurfs on the shelf. I then explained to them what Smurfs were and told them to pick one out. I couldn’t resist. They each chose a Smurf and I grabbed a Smurfette for Jules.* Then this morning I googled Smurf and guess what? There is a new Smurf movie in the works. The release date is December 2010. Apparently it takes a while to come up with all that smurfy dialogue. Then this morning I was flipping channels on tv and saw Strawberry Shortcake , Care Bears , and two versions of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles . I was right. I guess the 80’s really did have the best cartoons/ A Butterfly Moment . More here .

Question: Do you agree with A Butterfly Moment that the ‘80s had the best cartoons?
