    We can't really see how it could get better than classics like Mr. Magoo, Rocky & Bullwinkle, Dick Tracy, and Casper, but it sure wouldn't hurt if Sprint dropped their ridiculous prices they expect you to pay for the privilege. Sprint is offering up their new Saturday Morning TV channel, featuring cartoon classics, along with Blip TV for comedic shorts and animations, and Comedy Time with six categories of stand-up comedy for whatever fits your mood. The problem is, Sprint expects you the shell out $5 a month per channel you'd like to watch, which can rack up pretty quickly, and shouldn't take more than a few channels to start rivaling a basic cable bill. We'd like to think we're as sensitive to a random Rocky & Bullwinkle craving as the next guy, but we'd much rather satisfy the addiction with some sort of package deal. That's all we're saying.[Via MocoNews]
