KIDD VIDEO

HOW MANY OF YOU REMEMBER KIDD VIDEO? THE CARTOON ABOUT THE TEENAGE ROCK BAND CONSISTING OF THREE WHITE BOYS AND ONE HOT LATINA DRUMMER ( SHEILA E. INSPIRED MAYBE? ) THAT WERE SUCKED INTO AN ALTERNATE ANIMATED WORLD BY THE EVIL MASTER BLASTER? ( THE PREMISE SOUNDS SO LAME TODAY BUT IT WAS SO BELIEVABLE BACK THEN ) I USED TO LOVE THIS SHOW! IT WAS THE LICK. IT MADE ME WANT TO TO BE YOUNG, WHITE AND ANIMATED ALL AT THE SAME TIME.

WATCHING THIS CLIP ON YOUTUBE MADE ME SMILE BECAUSE IT TOOK ME BACK TO A PLACE WHEN I WAS TOTALLY HAPPY. THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS. NO BILLS, NO JOB NO NOTHING. UNFORTUNATELY THOSE DAYS ARE GONE FOR KIDS TODAY. TOO BAD. CHECK OUT THE INTRO.

Yes! I completely forgot about that show! I always thought the villain looked like the bad guy from "The Last Dragon"... which I know you were into.

LOL..true indeed. Those days are gone, but for the most part the tight jeans are making a comeback with a vengeance. But back then cartoons were really creative. Now the cartoons of today are just crazy and pushing the envelope, but for the most part thank goodness The Boondocks which gives it some type of balance.
