Nick has rolled out a new cartoon for 2014 and paired it up with an already successful cartoon on their Saturday morning lineup, Sanjay and Craig. It's called Breadwinners, and it's a show featuring animated green ducks who deliver bread in a rocket-powered bread truck.
Now, I know what you're thinking: this can't be a good formula for a cartoon. Initially, I was inclined to agree with you. Even after having seen it, I am still slightly in the same thought camp. However, I think this cartoon has the potential to turn into something amusing.
Just in time for Halloween, introduce your kids to the original scary monsters: Ichis, Oblina, and Krumm!

That's right, the 90's Nicktoon "Aaahh! Real Monsters" is back on DVD thanks to Shout! Factory! For those of us who were young in the 90's, it's a blast from the past and a return to some of the best kids television in modern history.
The Monsuno adventures continue on the new DVD, Monsuno: Power. Five more episodes are included on the new DVD from Shout! Factory, which is a direct sequel to the previous Monsuno: Destiny DVD.

Those of us who grew up in the '90s will surely remember Rocko and his wacky friends. We can now relive our childhood (or for some of us, our teen years) by owning Rocko's Modern Life: The Complete Series on DVD. A fabulous 8-disc set with every episode ever aired, including the pilot version of "Trash-O-Madness". If you loved this cartoon, you have to own this one, and at only $25, it's tough to pass up!
Monsuno is an anime action show that airs on the Nicktoons channel. Until this DVD, I'd never watched it myself, and I have to say, I probably won't after this either (good thing I have a lot of nephews to give DVDs to!). For some reason, this one didn't hook me like Kaijudo did.
Anyhow, head on over to my About.com page to read more about it and find out why it's not my favorite kids action cartoon. However, in doing some research, I was in fact impressed with the game that goes along with the cartoon. No boring cards here! You actually get a cute little core with a mini Monsuno critter inside! Not too shabby for a card game!
