Are all your favorite franchises from when you were a kid still going?

I just basically realized nearly everything I grew up watching as a kid is STILL going on to this day with new episodes, new comics, new series. Its like nothing I ever watched concluded:

- TMNT (of course) is still going with a new Nick cartoon and IDW comics. Back in the mid 90's we thought TMNT was done forever. Never imagined we'd get two more cartoons and new comics.

- Batman has constant new cartoons and movies. Kevin Conroy also still voices Batman to this day in new movies and cartoons.

- DC superheroes in general have new movies, comics, cartoons, and now TV series.

- Marvel Superheroes, ones I grew up with like Spiderman and X-men in particular, are still going.

- Star Wars came back with new movies and new continuity. If you told anyone even just 7 years ago there would be an "Episode 7, 8, 9 and new spinoff movies every other year" you would have been laughed at.

- The Pokemon anime is still going after 20 years and has nearly 1000 episodes now.

- Dragonball came back with a new series, "Super." If you told anyone 5 years ago Dragonball would actually have a new weekly series when it ended in Japan back in 1996/1997, you would have been laughed at.

- Power Rangers is STILL GOING in the U.S. with new adaptions and a new movie

- The Simpsons is STILL GOING and is reaching 30 seasons soon.

- Star Trek still exists with new movies and a new series in development.

- Various other anime are getting new series or reboots

- Various movies get reboots or new series

I swear, everything I watched as a kid is still going right now. Its like nothing ever ends.
