From 1984 to the 90's USA Network had it's own morning cartoon block called USA's Cartoon Express that featured many different cartoons from Hanna-Barbera favorites and many more fun stuff such as the famous In A Minute segments that focused on kids activities around the world. USA Network's Cartoon Express block also aired Sailor Moon reruns for a short time too. It's a shame that USA Network did away with Cartoon Express and started focusing on a morning sitcom block rather than cartoons and USA Network should revive the Cartoon Express block because it was great fun to watch

Don't think their overlords at NBC will allow it.

Exactly. It'll never happen. USA is no longer an independent network, its NBC. And even if they did revive it, it wouldnt be like what you remember. They certainly wouldnt broadcast any of the old cartoons they use to as they no longer have the rights to broadcast them and it's doubtful they would want to relicense them.

Also- before cartoon express, USA had the fun-tastic world of Hanna Barbera.

Glad I have a ton of recordings of USA cartoon express from 1984-1995 with original commercials.

Nobody airs Sailor Moon on cable. You can find the somewhat new series, "Sailor Moon Crystal" on Hulu. They may broadcast the older series and films as well but thats a gamble as they come and go constantly.

Me too...so much variety...but since the 21st Century is more corporate, we'll see a new Cartoon Express the day the Browns are in the Super Bowl!
