englishwitch Posted July 17, 2006 Report Posted July 17, 2006 When I was growing up it was Thundercats and Teegage mutant ninja turtles. I see that recently they've revamped one TMNT but not thundercats, shame really. What was your favorite cartoon to watch when you were a kid? Alright I liked carebears too, spread it around and I'll hurt you. Quote
Guest Mike256bit Posted July 17, 2006 Report Posted July 17, 2006 Mine was the Saturday morning Sonic the Hedgehog series. I loved that show and the subtle liberal messages therein. Hehe. Now, though, I think one of my favorites is the Venture Bros. Quote

Charging Handles Forward Posted July 23, 2006 Report Posted July 23, 2006 Gargoyles and Batman: The Animated Series. Quote
StoryJunkie Posted July 23, 2006 Report Posted July 23, 2006 When I was a kid? (Cranks back the old memory chip) I think it was the Flintstones, although I can't say it was a favorite. Just something to pass the time. Also LooneyTunes, but I hated the entire concept of the prey animals getting revenge on the predators. It was just too weird. Later on, it was the really old Spiderman, but the same landscape in the background and too many "web-snapping" quips made me appreciate the Flintstones. Then the Jetsons came along, and that was somewhat more interesting... I've concluded that playing in the sandbox was better than any cartoon I ever watched as a kid. Quote
englishwitch Posted July 25, 2006 Author Report Posted July 25, 2006 OMG Thanks for the reminder Kothoga Bravestar, Defenders of the earth and Capitan planet, i can't believe i forgot about those. i really liked watching those when i was young but it was still TMNT and Thundercats that were my fave.

Guest Kothoga Posted July 25, 2006 Report Posted July 25, 2006 I really enjoyed watching Captain Planet and the planeteers as that showed in the end of the show that we should take care of the world(after all, we only have one earth). I think also that He-Man had also some learning it the end. I wished that todays kids shows also would make moral or learning the kids some lessons like don't throw trash every were it should be in the garbage can. Quote
ZombieDuke Posted August 2, 2006 Report Posted August 2, 2006 Hmmmm, my childhood... G.I. Joe Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Thundercats The Transformers(more then meets the eye) and the Transformers movie Scooby Doo He-Man and the Masters of the Universe She-Ra Robotech Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs Spider-Man Dangard Ace Sonic The Hedgehog The Raccoons Tom and Jerry LooneyToons(I still remember the day when Bugs Bunny died) TinyToons Smurfs Carebears(Don't you mock my furries!) Also, I know it was a movie, but it has ALWAYS stuck in my mind since I was little: The Last Unicorn Quote
Guest Madapple Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 I liked Scooby-Doo (the classics without Scrappy), and She-Ra, I even occasionally watched Jem and the Holograms (she was truly outrageous). Then there was Johnny Quest, Beetlejuice (was that car really named Do-Me?), Josie and the Pussycats, Flash Gordon, Space Ghost (before he got a talk show), Plastic-Man, the Jetsons, the Archies, Birdman, Aquaman, Pac-Man, Hong-Kong Fooey (quicker than the human eye), The Schoolhouse Rock spots (Conjunction Junction, "I forgot my Adjectives" and Interjection!), Rocky and Bullwinkle, Speed Racer, Super Friends, Pink Panther, Voltron, U.S. Acres, Garfield and Friends, Thundarr the Barbarian (LORDS OF LIGHT!), Jana of the Jungle, and the Herculoids. Super Chicken- "When you find that you're in trouble The Mighty Hercules made in the 60's, I think. I loved it and it had a theme song that begged for fanfic (now that I think about it)- Hercules, hero of song and story Hercules, winner of ancient glory fighting for the right, fighting with his might with the strength of tenordinary men Hercules, people are safe when near him Hercules, only the evil fear him softness in his eyes, iron in his thighs virtue in his heart fire in every part of the mighty Hercules! But my absolute favorite was Dungeon's and Dragon's (I never missed it on Saturday morning) Quote
ZombieDuke Posted August 4, 2006 Report Posted August 4, 2006 I even occasionally watched Jem and the Holograms (she was truly outrageous). I had a lunchbox with Jem and the Holograms on the front! Quote
Guest Madapple Posted August 4, 2006 Report Posted August 4, 2006 I had a lunchbox with Jem and the Holograms on the front! Lol, I actually liked the Misfits better, "because their songs were better . . . and they were going to get her!" Quote
Guest Nympho Posted August 15, 2006 Report Posted August 15, 2006 Gargoyles and...The Brave Little Toaster. <runs away and hides in shame> Quote
Guest Madapple Posted August 31, 2006 Report Posted August 31, 2006 Freakazoid. I absolutely love Freakazoid, it's too damn funny, makes me laugh every time. I even think the theme song is brilliant. Freakazoid Intro- Brilliant! Quote
Guest AgentG Posted September 21, 2006 Report Posted September 21, 2006 my favs growing up were: Thundercats GI Joe Transformers (all that anime rip offs can't hold a candle to the spirit of the original)\ Voltron (lions) He-Man She-Ra (But mainly just for the chick lol) Centurions TMNT (new one was good not so sure about Fast Forward) Sonic The Hedgehog (the good one not the chessy one) Captin N the Gamemaster Robotech Spider-Man X-Men Quote
Guest Kothoga Posted September 21, 2006 Report Posted September 21, 2006 Transformers (all that anime rip offs can't hold a candle to the spirit of the original)\ You said it!! Long live Transformers G1!!! Quote
Guest echtrae Posted September 21, 2006 Report Posted September 21, 2006 My favorite as a kid was Thundarr the Barbarian. Though admittedly over the years I have never really lost my interest in cartoons and will even sometimes sit around and watch them every so often. Over the years, some of the ones that I have liked are: Dungeons & Dragons Freakazoid The Tick Jackie Chan Space Ghost (the original, not the talk show) Quote
Guest pimpinbulbasaur Posted October 12, 2006 Report Posted October 12, 2006 Pokemon dude, it was like crack when i was a kid, and i cant shake the habbit, cant even move down to cocain (digimon) lol. Quote
Squallfan Posted October 13, 2006 Report Posted October 13, 2006 I use to love watching scooby doo when I was a kid, but now I love watching Spongebob with my own children. Quote
Guest .:Deathbringer:. Posted October 16, 2006 Report Posted October 16, 2006 Wow... I like the old cartoon shows. The shadows of some of the crappy cartoons out today. Like... 90's toons. X3 Rocko's Modern Life X-Men (GAMBIT FO' EVA!!!) Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Biker Mice from Mars The Tick Gargoyles Freakazoid Ren and Stimpy Ahh! Real Monsters Quote
ZombieDuke Posted October 16, 2006 Report Posted October 16, 2006 Does anybody else remember The Maxx? Quote
Guest echtrae Posted October 17, 2006 Report Posted October 17, 2006 Ooo, I remember that one. Whatever happened to it? A new one that I've been getting into is The Avatar. Quote
ZombieDuke Posted October 17, 2006 Report Posted October 17, 2006 No idea. But I read somwhere that fans were trying to get it released on DVD. I found an old VHS tape of it in the basement of a store about a week ago Quote
Guest LadyVirgo1956 Posted October 20, 2006 Report Posted October 20, 2006 I grew up watching cartoons like The Flintstones and The Jetsons but I would have to say my favorite would have to have been and still is on a lot of levels is Scooby-Doo. Love that dog. Quote
Guest Knorg Posted December 3, 2006 Report Posted December 3, 2006 Hard to remember what I enjoyed most now. Off the top of me head maybe The Real Ghostbusters... but there was a lot back then I think I liked them pretty much equally; teenage mutant hero turtles, loony toons, duck tails, raccoons, jayce(sp?) and the wheeled warriors, scooby doo, thundercats, rescue rangers etc etc... even captain bloomin' planet.
