That's a really terrible comparison though. The top picture in that cartoon network thing has huge amounts of characters in it that were DECADES old by the time the advert was airing (Johnny Quest? The Jetsons? LOONEY TUNES?), while the newer one actually features the current cartoons. If you removed every single cartoon from the first gif that wasn't current at the time that advert was made, it'd be as empty as the second gif.
Yeah I guess you’re right. I can still go down the “its nostalgia” route though. I guess I also felt that “these were the current shows being showed at that time” and it made me feel really sad.
