Darkwing Duck's another one

[Satira]

Daaarkwing Duck... LETS. GET. DANGEROUS.

[Snapp]

I remember me and my brother laughing at Fred Penner when we'd see it on.. because he was a creepy old man playing the guitar.

I used to love Snorks.. I had forgotten all about it! Ah.. the 80's.

[Edaarin]

That episode of Daffy Duck and the lost piggy bank....

[Satira]

My favorite was Lady Lovely Locks. I had hair as long as her when I was little.

[Kuyuk]

Prince Valiant.
Garfield specials (christmas/new years, halloween, etc)
Peanuts specials!!!!

I havent been able to find anything about them since they went off air, I wish I could buy old videos of the show. Great cartoon, kicked serious ass.


K.

GI JOE

[Stunseed]

My favorites were Snake-eye from GI JOE, and Starscream from Transformers. Those tapes the came from his chest kicked major ass.

Plus all of Snapp's for the most part.

I guess I didn't watch a lot of TV as a kid, I don't miss any shows from back then. They were all pretty dumb. Although I have to temper that by saying I wasn't allowed to watch TMNT.

[Stunseed]

Are you sure? I coulda swore it was Starscream, since he was 2nd in command to Megatron. However, it's been a long ass time since I've seen the original series.

[Pallon]

Starscream was just a whiny pussy, the dude with the tapes was Soundwave

[Stunseed]

I stand corrected, then. Soundwave was so awesome, I wish they'd use him more back then. That tape the transformed into the tiger was sweet, plus he had that scouting bird.

[Satira]

I liked the tiger one too.

[Izalude]

He-man, the Masters of the universe
She-Ra
Silverhawks
Jayce and the Wheeled warriors
Thundercats
Inspector Gadget
Dungeons and Dragons

That's what I can remember right now... If any more shows come back to me, I'll post them too.

Gummi Bears
Smurfs (yes Smurfs damnit!)

Blech. When I was /really/ little, I used to watch Davey and Goliath. I never realized until years after that it was a religious show. My poor father had to sit through it with me every Sunday morning. Anyway, good stuff...

The Banana Splits
Land of the Lost
HR Puffinstuff
... And umm, Josie and the Pussycats.

Raven

[Satira]

He-man was my absolute favorite. I was convinced I was Teala.

My mom wouldn't let us watch Speed Racer because it was too violent, but we'd sneak around and do it.

Dungeons and Dragons. (Was that the one where the kids went on the rollercoaster and were sucked into another world?)

I can't recall the name of it right now but all the characters were birds...I think they called themselves G-Force. I LOVED that cartoon. It was the first time in a show that I watched a main character died. Princess was trapped in a flower and they burned the field.:(

She-Ra rocked.

Tiny toons. We're tiny, we're toony. We're all a little loony.

Schmoo.

[Pallon]

Beast Wars??? What the motherfuck

That one Nickelodeon show that was set in a Ranch...I forget it's name.

Hey dude. What was the summer camp one, with the UG guy? Camp nowhere or some shit? Also, when I was *real* young they had sketch comedy show that was really good (at least to my 4 year old self)

[Kuyuk]

Yeah, Hey Dude, Salute your Shorts, and Saved by the bell were my "non-cartoon" favorites.

Hey Dude was my favorite non-cartoon show as a kid. I was obsessed. I used to sneak and watch You Can't Do That on Television too when I could, since my mom banned us from watching it because they said "fart" too much.

[Weedmage Princess]

Tom n Jerry, Snorks, Smurfs, Jetsons, ..does anyone remember Magic Garden..and Romper Room? At the end the lady would say all the names of children and I'd always be disappointed cause she never said my name.

I have a punk version of that done by The Incredible Shrinking Dickies.

Raven

[Artha]

Oh, I used to watch Captain Planet too.

Haji was on Johnny Quest, Speed Racer's sidekick was a chimp.

Oh, and Haji wasn't the dog, it was his Indian friend, but there was a little dog on there.

[Edited on 5-22-2004 by Some Rogue]

[Artha]

The dog's name was Bandit.

[Latrinsorm]

The voice of Optimus Primal is the voice of Man-at-Arms in the new He-man series, and that has been bothering me forever.

Also: does anyone remember the GOOD Sonic the Hedgehog series? The one with all the sidekicks that wasn't all kiddy? The power rings powered him up and stuff? That show rocked. Reboot wasn't bad either, though that has been phasing in and out of regular programming.

[Shari]

Oh my god, this brings back crazy memories.

Salute your shorts was a great show, as was Hey Dude.

Cartoon-wise

Rescue Ranger
He-man
She-ra
Transformers-"More than meets the eye!"
Ducktails
All the oooold school looney toons
Tiny Toons
Animaniacs
GI Joe-though I hated their stupid tip at the end of the show "Now you know, and knowing's half the battle GEEE EEEEYE JOOOOE" <groans>
Dark Wing Duck
X-men...the original version

Yeah. I watched a lot of cartoons. And I still do. I'm strangely addicted to Yu-gi-oh, how sad is that?

[Edaarin]

Zelda
Super Mario Bros
Weird Science (vanessa angel = hot)

[Tendarian]

GI Joe (The best by far)
He Man

Thats about it for me for cartoons. I remember being in about 4th grade my dad coming home and asking me wasnt i a little old to still be watching cartoons so i pretty much stopped except for those three. For those three i was willing to be ridiculed as they were that good.

[Wezas]

Ducktales
Chip & Dale, Rescue Rangers
Garfield
Transformers
TMNT


As for non-cartoon:

Dukes of Haz.
MacGyver (though it's on in repeats all over the place)
Knight Rider (it was the car, not Hufflepuff)
Quantum Leap

[Jazuela]

Wow, Johnny Quest. Thanks! Also add Romper Room and ZOOM

Did anyone else ever watch or hear of Zoom? Am I the only one fluent in Ubby-Dubby?

Hubi, Frubiends!

Have I told you lately that I <3 you, Jesae? :cool:

[Snapp]

Aw, I used to love Super Mario Bros.. except when that big fat guy used to come on and pretend to be Mario before/after the cartoon part. That was a little annoying/creepy.
