CIFS mount through fstab not mounting at boot

The suggested answers (a typo in fstab; _netdev) have no effect. However when I mount them with sudo mount -a there are no issues and they are mounted.

Here's the first entry. The other two are nearly identical, just a different path on each side of the connection. 

# added line break for readability 
//192.168.1.9/video/cartoons /media/saturn-cartoons 
cifs credentials=/home/media/.smbcredentials,_netdev,
iocharset=utf8,gid=1000,uid=1000,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
