If 80s cartoons were brought back; would they appeal to the new generation?

been having a think on this and was wondering what others feel.

if the cartoons we grew up on were brought back now, do you think they would appeal to todays young audience?

i personally think yes because they entertained, were informative, fun not like some of todays kids programmes that, i feel, talk to kids as if they are stupid (Big Cook, Little Cook for example, though not strictly a cartoon)

what's your views

yes they'd enjoy them, but there isnt the booming toy market to support all the mechandise and action figures and so on the the networks would dump them..

Well for me...

I think I could see Thundercats, Transformers and He-Man style cartoons that can appeal to todays youths.

However I don't they'd enjoy the cartoons that reqire learning from Inspector Gadget and MASK (as examples). I just think they wouldn't follow the examples (they had learning part at the end) or something. Also most animation withing the classics would be outdated and kids love the CGI, computer generated animation, so hand drawn couldn't work for the kids.

I agree with Journeyman with the marketing thing.

I think they would mostly work. Don't think CGI will ever be more important that a good story if you can sit them down for an ep or two.

Personally I reckon MCoG is good for any audience. As would be Thundercats and the other biggies.
