Wow some posters need to have less sex and street parties and hoops and so on for surface level ego boosters and get the ego boosters for the gut the adult and not child way. I.E Get testing for your type and cluster and if you can use affirmative action money and recruiters to get the career you can do well and will enjoy a lot and be with one girl with mutuality and autonomy. Man why you so hard on a cartoon?
RIchie Rich is considered the poor man's Little Lulu in the comic book world. It's good but not spectacular although the credits for the show look really cool and a good fantasy but not as good of course as the opening for Johnny Quest- but what is? But the best version of this type of concept and I don't know if it came first is the Uncle Scrooge work- the richest duck in the world. Those comic books are definately superior and are reprinted by Gladstone for cheap.
Ok.. wow.. this was a FREAKIN cartoon, fiction, make believe. It was not real and it did not tend to be real. Some real anger towards those who GOT OUT AND EARNED IT shows.. Wah wah wah.. I am so hard done by. Try effort, thinking, common sense, honesty, ethics, hygeine, respect. I am sure you think the government should have given poor ol' Wile E. Coyote a free roadrunner because he could not get one.

Richie Rich; The comic book kid with a million dollar allowance & a heart of gold. I don't think so! You can't tell me that this kid isn't just a little bit spoiled! He has a freakin dollarmation for God's sake! I'd like to see how gold his heart would be if he didn't have all that damn money! Hell, if I was in that show, I'd dispose of that spoiled little brat & his Bill Gates wannabe parents & take every last penny!
This show (along with the original comic and the movie) were doomed from the beginning. It is a one-joke concept: Richie has so much money! This would have been how the party in Orwell's 1984 would have described how the capitalists entertained their children!
Ok.. this was freaking cartoon.. pretend.. get it. Any turnip head out there who thinks this is real needs to go to a Doctor at the nut tree farm and get a tune up. I agree with above posters about one of the cry me a river babies.. you are probably a deadbeat who has no ambition and thinks that the whole world owes them something. People who are successful are because they WORK.... and try, and get their ass out of bed before NOON.. and do not spend the day eating McDonalds and watching the Pukes of Haphazard. This was a kids cartoon... I grew up reading the comic books... it was just fun...
I watched this show all the time when I was little, and it never jumped the shark. To the above poster who talked about murdering Richie Rich and giving his money to charities in Africa, get a life! This was just a kids' cartoon. You must be one seriously whacked out person. Get a job, get a life, and get some help for your complex about people with money. It's too bad that you're not bright enough to know that in an economy some people have to be wealthy or we would all live in poverty.
Lighten up, dude. It was a lousy cartoon and it deserves to be trashed. Anyway, I can't think of a thing I *didn't* hate about this cartoon... the maid was creepy, the voices were obnoxious, the music tried to be precocious and funny but was waaay overdone, and I absolutely hated how everything was handed to Richie Rich, yet he was still supposed to be a great kid. When I was in elementary school, there was a kid in our class who was 1/1000000th as rich as Richie and he STILL acted like an arrogant jerk. Watching this show, even just to bide the time while waiting for Starcade to come on, was absolutely *excruciating*. There were a lot of bad Hanna-Barbera cartoons, but man, this one tried the hardest to intentionally get under the skin of its audience.
I want to comment on the inflammatory post above... So this kid has money. You probably hate everyone with money, as you sound like you have none. Well, I suggest you stop watching stupid cartoons and get a job, you f*cking loafer. Did you ever hear about the pursuit of happiness? You can do that and be socially responsible at the same time.
This show jumped, when it first started, Money grubbing producers cranking out another $hitty cartoon. No pun intended. THI$ Cartoon was $hitty. Dollar signs on the dog, the dog should have mangled the poor son of a bitch when those were carved into him. I was waiting for an episode for richie to pay to have his little girlfriend have a dollar sign tattoo. I hated that *ucking show. Everything had money or a freakin dollar sign, it just goes to show how desperate these people wanted money. Money they didn't have. The creators of this show should be hauled into a field and shot with thousands of rounds. As for the real richy prick I would kill him too if I could. Donate all his F-ing money to charities in Africa. Don't get me started on this one, I haven't even began to sing.
