Just a list of things from growing up in the 90s about media. Things that u don't really see anymore in cartoons or TV. Feel free to add more

Quicksand: growing up every adventure show I watched had some form of quicksand show up and be the deadliest thing ever. Doesn't really appear anymore, at least not in the capacity that it once did

Atlantis and ancient egypt: both of these where focused a lot on in 90s early 2000s media. Every cartoon seemed to have an episode on one if these, or whole series about them. Ex mummies alive, Stargate, gargoyles, Aladdin, prince of egypt, the mummy, real adventures of Johnny quest

Reading and recycling is cool: I completely understand why this fell out of favor, but 90s shows had at least one ep focusing on either or both of these lessons. Ill also admit that they got me because i try to recycle and live to read. Ex wishbone, gargoyles, captain planet, magic tree house

King Arthur stuff: not as much as ancient egypt, but I remember there was tons of king Arthur stuff growing up either about it or having some hints to it. Ex kid in king Arthur's court, gargoyles, Babylon 5, Kids of the Round Court, Magic tree house

Animal stories, animals as people: look I'm not dumb, I know there is still a lot of furry stuff and the anthropomorphic animal stories of the 90s woke a lot of young furries, but it's more of an adult scene today than the kids stuff in the 90's or so. Probably because the kids that grew up with the stuff grew up and bingo bongo. There's still stuff for kids, but it's lessened quite a bit compared to the 90s where there were a lot of shows featuring animal protagonists, either as animals or anthropomorphized: ex Rats of Nimh, Redwall, Bucky o'hare, Disney's Robin Hood, the lion king, Looney Tunes (more Tiny Tunes given the time, but also Space Jam), Alvin and the chipmunks

Disney series based on their animated movies: Obviously I know why this isn't done as much, it's harder to make money off of it compared to the 90's. But they still do this, with Rapunzel and Big Hero 6, it's just not done as much. Compare to the 90's early 2000's where there was Aladdin, Hercules, Timon and Pumba, the little Mermaid. And there were even cross overs between them sometimes.

Martial Arts movies/tv shows: This I know I'm a bit dated on, but there were a lot of martial arts movies growing up, I know most were probably earlier than the 90's but martial arts was just big when I was a kid. I did martial arts for years, a lot of kids did karate even if they stopped after a few sessions, studios popped up everywhere and then closed a few years later. And this was before UFC became big

Mecha, Magical Girl, Super Sentai animes and other media: Again, this isn't a dead genre, especially the later two, but the latter two also tend to be deconstructions or even spoofs of the magical girl and Super Sentai Genre. But in the 90's there were tons of Mecha animes, over half a dozen attempts for America to capitalize on super Sentai/Power Rangers fame. It was easy to capitalize on these genre's of shows because you tended to need several main characters to fill out your roster, which meant the studios could sell toys of them easily, advertising to buy the whole set.

Bullet proof vests: I don't really know why these were a thing so often in 90's media, but they were. of course they didn't work like real bullet proof vests which will still hurt when struck. When I was a kid it seemed like every time there was a bullet proof vest in a show it was basically a magic force field.

Holiday specials: I know that shows and cartoons still have holiday episodes, but it seemed to be such a bigger thing when I was growing up. Nick would have months where they would air Halloween episodes all October and each of their shows from Catdog, Rugrats, to Rocket Power would air one of their episodes, often one of many. Christmas you couldn't escape December when every cartoon would have a Christmas special.

Variety shows: I don't know how to properly describe these types of shows, but there were a lot of Cartoons that didn't have a consistent through line, and they were a bunch of 5 or so minute clips of several different shows or different characters in situations. Sometimes it would fit a theme, other times it would be random, or perhaps random to my kid brain. Ex Tiny Tunes, Histeria, Kablam, Animaniacs

For the record, I am not an idiot, I know why many of these things fell out of fashion. A lot of time it isn't a mystery, just the studios trying to cash in on something popular so they flooded the market with what they saw as the bandwagon to make them money. Once that money dried up or they were wasting more trying to copy and emulate, so did the properties. I also want to be clear that I'm not missing these things, not all of them, I am only pointing these things out as a product of the time I grew up in

I am also aware that these are not strictly the 90's and 2000's things, but I saw them growing up and they molded me and I was born in 91. It was a different time because it was before the internet became big and the only way you could interact with media was either from watching on TV, usually live or catching reruns whenever they aired, or renting movies from the Video store. For me it wasn't even block buster most of the time, it was my local video store when that was a thing. All movies came out when I watched them because I was a kid and that's how my brain worked.

Feel free to add more stuff if only for Nostalgia. I probably will be as well

Any Australian 90's kids remember this?

Back in the late 90s and early 2000s, the Australian children's programming block ABC Kids would sometimes play idents of a weird purple CGI creature with a simpleton voice, pulsating eyes, three legs, and a butt shaped like the channel's logo.

It… was very uncanny looking.

As of 2024, only three of the idents seem to be archived online: [Music Box] [Skiis] [Ice Skating]

I just kind of suddenly remembered that the movie Flubber exists. Do my 90's kid buddies out there remember Flubber? What the fuck was that. I mean I loved it but what the fuck was it.
