TV Squad reports that Fox is dumping its Saturday Morning Cartoon line-up in favor of infomercials. That is an incredibly disheartening thing to hear – especially for this grown-up kid who used to LOVE the Saturday Morning Cartoon line-ups in his younger days (not that I’m old – but you get the idea).

With networks like Nicktoons, Cartoon Network, Boomerang, and all the Disney Channels, kids today have instant access to entertainment target specifically for them. Those of us over 25, however, remember when it was Saturday mornings and Weekday afternoons or nothing.

All things considered, Fox will probably do well with this concept, and it will be an interesting experiment. They’re calling it “Weekend Marketplace”.
