Hero’s to Zero’s…

Daily writing prompt
What’s your favorite cartoon?
View all responses

Even though I don’t watch cartoons, nor have I for some years now, I will still attempt to answer the prompt this morning!

The only answers I have within my mental arsenal come from a good many seasons ago, so they look much different than they did back in the day.

Apparently, age has not been so kind to them…

Bugs Bunny was quite the athlete, what with all the popping in and out of all those rabbit holes…

But, it seems that time and too many carrots have done their work…

…

My only other favorite cartoons from the past were basically Disney productions, so they’re movies instead of cartoons, but this is my blog and I can do what I want!

Of all the classics to choose from, I will say that Robin Hood was, and still is, one of my all time favorite Cartoon‘s, if you will! Robin Hood was such a hero of the downtrodden, as well as, an adept tree swinger and lady charmer…

One can hardly recognize the fox he is today… what with Maid Marian running away with the Sherriff, some years after they moved away from Sherwood Forrest…

I have come to the determination that it’s better to keep my favorite cartoon character’s memory alive, rather than focusing on the harsh realities of most hero’s lives… after the cartoon is over!

Anyways, wanna cookie?

  1. Love this! It’s so true that cartoons from our childhood can look so different when we revisit them years later. Bugs Bunny definitely had some serious athletic skills, but I agree, those carrots may have caught up with him! 😂 Robin Hood was such a classic—he’ll always be that charming, adventurous fox in my mind, too. I totally get why it’s sometimes better to preserve those fond memories of our favorite characters rather than focus on the harsh reality after the credits roll. And yes, I’d love a cookie! 🍪
