Cartoon/Television Shows from Childhood

[GSLeloo]

Someone just asked me this so... I got all nostalgic and just wondered what other people watched and what were their favorites as kids?

Let's try categories!

Disney.
WB.
Nickelodeon.
Prehistoric.
Misc.

[GSLeloo]

Ok mine were...

Disney: Aladdin, Goof Troop (there are more I just can't remember)
WB: Gargoyles.
Misc: Digimon, Sailor Moon... All the ABC Saturday morning shows till they got gay, Power Rangers...
Nickelodeon: Little bits

[Bobmuhthol]

I've always been fond of South Park.

[GSLeloo]

I love South Park! I think it's so original and a real symbol of free speech. Plus it's really funny.

[Back]

Gargoyles was cool. Had that gothic animation from Batman.

I liked Sailor Moon a lot. Sure, busty girls in uniforms are awesome, but I also like that whole shes a dumb blonde who always gets it right, with the accompanying hot babe friends to give her support. And the planet thing. And the animation was pretty fucking good.

[Jenisi]

Man.. I'm talking about Rainbow Brite, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, My Little Ponies, Fraggle Rock, those are the shit

[Wezas]

Ducktales, Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers, and Garfield.

[Marl]

WB wasnt around when i was a kid and the only thing i watched disney for was the sunday night movie and mickey mouse show in the mornings but....
GI Joe
Fraggle Rock
Thunder Cats
Transformers
Duck tales
He-man
and a whole bunch more I cant remember

[GSLeloo]

Yay! You remembered the ones I forgot! Fraggle Rock, Duck Tales, My Little Pony, Care Bears, Ducktales, Chip and Dale, TMNT...

[Satira]

Lady Lovely Locks and Jem were better than all that.

[The Korean]

I still watch cartoons, and will till the day i die. no one interupts my saturday morning ritual.

[Edaarin]

I already made a thread like this.

[Satira]

I was kind of wondering about that.

[GSLeloo]

Well Edaarin I want fresh answers! Plus I hate bringing up dead threads AND I didn't know you did so oh well.

[Back]

Marshall, Will and Holly, on a routine expedition...

something something, Land of the Lost

and they met dinosaurs, primitive man, and hissing sleestak who had control of the crystals and gates and shit.

[Kitsun]

Exo-Squad!

Most of the ones I watched were already listed but that one. There's more but damned if I can remember em.

Denver The Last Dinosaur too!

[Edaarin]

Hmm...Dinosaucers I think was one that I didn't mention in the other thread. I don't remember too much except it was like mini dinosaurs that could turn into bigger dinosaurs or something, and there was an episode that mimicked The Maltese Falcon.

[Satira]

Deeeeeeeenver the last Diiinooosaaur! Shows me a world I neeever saw befooOooore...

I really hated that show but it had a really catchy theme song.

[Wezas]

Not a cartoon, but what was the show about the dinosaur family?

Was it called "Dinosaur!"?

The one where the baby said "Not the momma!" when he smacked his dad over the head with a frying pan.

[Edaarin]

Damn the Denver the Last Dinosaur one sounds freakin familiar...but I can't put my finger on it...

And I thought that baby monster thing said "Knock the momma?"

I've seen that but I'll be damned if I can remember the name...

Ah, good old google...

As for cartoons:

Tom and Jerry
Chip n' Dale
Woody Woodpecker
Loony Tunes (in general but especially Roadrunner)
and while I've never been a huge anime fan, Starblazers.

Raven

[ThisOtherKingdom]

ThunderCats was one of my favorites. I even had the lair.

Disney: the Rescuers, Fantasia
WB: not around when I watched cartoons
Nick: not around...
Prehistoric: Land of the Lost
other: Looney Tunes, Banana Splits (anything Hanna Barbara), Sigmund the Sea Monster, StarBlazers (w00t!), Thunder Cats, Davey & Goliath (sunday morning cartoons).

[Satira]

Oh man, you know who I love, Beanie and Cecil!!!!!!!!

Too great.

[Nakiro]

Sadly I have only the feintest memory of my early childhood, so nothing really comes to mind.

[MPSorc]

disney - i liked most of their shows
nick - cable service didn't carry it
wb - batman/superman/gargoyles
prehistoric - dinosaurs (and it was definantly NOT the momma! *smack* ha ha ha ha)
misc - he-man, and just about any cartoon with action

[Praefection]

I don't think I've seen these ones mentioned. Voltron and shit... I can't think of the name. I know in the early 80's there were the transformers and one other sorta like them. Robots that talked and crap. Anyone know what one I mean?

[Praefection]

Ah ha, I remembered. The Gobots!

[Valthissa]

Disney - wonderful world of disney was in it's original run when I was a kid.

WB. <-- never seen it

Nickelodeon. <--never seen it

Prehistoric - I may be almost 50, but not prehistoric

Misc. - Looney Tunes

in the early sixties there weren't a lot of cartoons, but I think they were very well done. To this day I collect Disney, Chuck Jones, and Fritz Freleng original animation cels.

[Praefection]

I just thought up a few more. David the Gnome. I think that was on Nickelodeon. Then as I got older I loved Ren and Stimpy along with Beavis and Butthead. Yes, I was an odd child while in highschool.

[Mistomeer]

My favorites were GI Joe, Ducktales, Transformers, He-Man. All I can remember right now.

[Drew2]

I was all about Nick when I was a kid... Eureka's Castle, The Elephant Show, David the Gnome, What Would You Do, The Secret World of Alex Mac, everything on SNICK (Are you afraid of the Dark, etc.) and this one show that I was probably the only person in the world to watch called The Tomorrow People.

Hmm... others included Power Rangers, TMNT, Darkwing Duck, Tiny Tunes, Sailor Moon... from age 3-6 or whatever I was into Care Bears hardcore.

Yeah that's all I can remember.


ROFL THANKS BOB. I didn't watch Allegra's Window though. That came out when I was like 12.

[Edited on 5-31-2004 by Tayre]

[Bobmuhthol]

Allegra's Window, Eureeka's Castle.

[Latrinsorm]

Scifi had some show where they had an Anime movie on every saturday that probably got me started (on anime), looking back. They had Iria/Zeiram, Green Legend Ran, Record of Lodoss War, nothing over the top. It seems like they were only marginally censored (although I was pretty young) so I can't imagine they were on in the morning. Hmmm.

[Warriorbird]

Hmm. Wasn't cartoon.... but I dug Captain Power. Masters of the Universe, G.I. Joe, Transformers...the original animated Batman series before they added Robin and made it suck...Gummy Bears...Thundercats...


[Edited on 5-31-2004 by Warriorbird]

[Kefka]

Saturday morning cartoons - Alvin and the Chipmunks, Smurfs, Gummi Bears, Muppet Babies, Dungeons and Dragons, Mr. T, Hulk Hogan cartoon (forgot the name), Gravedale High, even Kid Video... I was a kid.

After school cartoons - Duck Tales, Darkwing Duck, Gargoyles, Aladin, Voltron(the real 5 lions one, not the 15 piece corny one), Transformers, Robotek, G.I. Joe, Thundercats, the Real Ghostbusters, the fake Ghostbusters, Tail Spin, Cops, He-man and Bionic Six.

Now- Any decent anime. Rorounin Kenshin, Berserk, DBZ, Yu Yu, The Professional, Fist of the North Star, 3x3 Eyes...

[Satira]

Masters of the Universe is where it's at. I freakin LOVE HE-MAN and SHE-RA

I had totally forgot about Eureka's castle... I'm so glad you guys reminded me. I absolutely couldn't stand it when I was a child.

[Meos]

Anyone remember bobbys world? I thoughtt hat cartoon kicked ass.

[Artha]

I remember not liking it very much.

[Snapp]

and this one show that I was probably the only person in the world to watch called The Tomorrow People.

You're not.. I used to watch it too.. and I loved it. The kids who could teleport and do weird stuff?

[Artha]

How about Space Case? I think that's what it was called...with the kids who were on a spaceship...and lost...in space.

edit: I was almost right...Space Cases.

[Snapp]

I remember that vaguely Artha.. damn I watched way too much TV or something as a kid.

[The Cat In The Hat]

She-ra Princess of Power


Cat

[GSLeloo]

I watched Eureka's castle... and actually I went to England a few years ago and from that I started watching this show called The Tribe... it was on a station back here but then was canceled.

[Bobmuhthol]

You people obviously didn't watch it carefully enough to know that it's Eureeka's Castle.

[GSLeloo]

I used to a lot.. but that was like a really long time ago.
