Opinion by Thomas E. Reed As a lifelong student of television, I was forced early on to learn a sad fact of life. It's the same realization you make when you realize your own mortality.
TV shows are mortal, too.
Heck, I still love SCTV, The Man From U.N.C.L.E. and The Garry Moore Show. But they are dead. Even reruns won't bring new thrills, only reminders of what once was. Everything has a limited lifespan, and that includes cartoon shows. Sometimes a show is kept alive by artificial means, and shouldn't be.
