I loved it for the physical humor. This is also where I developed a love for sarcasm. Still holds up today.

THE WHO! Still love that take off on 'who's on first', to this day.

the original

 

[Space Runaway]

Let's see...

Ren and Stimpy - Season 1+2
G.I.Joe - Season 1(2 is ok)
Batman TAS - All
The Real Ghostbusters - Season 2
Gargoyles - Season 1+2(Basically, everything before The Goliath Chronicles)
Doug - Season 1-4
Rocko's Modern Life - All
Robotech (Though having now seeing the original shows they used for this kinda ruined it's appeal)
Fleischer era Popeye
Any Looney Tunes or Merry Melodies from the late 20s-50's that got re-run forever.

I'm sure there's a few more but that's all that immediately comes to mind.

The Liquid Television shorts of Aeon Flux. Still amazing... and I loved that she

in basically every one.


I recall being pretty disappointed in the actual show that eventually came out.

 

[The Return of]

Courage the Cowardly dog still cracks me up till this day and has some creep episodes like the barber. Took way too long for someone to list this.

Hardly a children's cartoon though. Did you see Reign: The Conqueror? Same character designer and it's pretty out there as well.

Didn't realize it was for 'children's cartoons', just cartoons we liked as children.

I'll check out Reign, however.

[Ultima_5]

First season or two before I lost interest. Still very enjoyable for the most part.

[secretanchitman]

Still the best

the correct answer! still watch it to this day. during season 4 and 5, the animation got really sloppy though, even the producers admitted it.

also...

batman beyond i thought in some ways was a spiritual sequel to spider-man TAS. great stories, good animation, high school drama, leads a secret life, set in the future this time, plus you see a great collection of old and new enemies, and having the old bruce wayne help you? just badass. will friedle nails the voice of batman beyond/terry mcginnis, and kevin conroy as the old/retired batman is just icing on the cake.

the new batman/superman adventures was also pretty damn good. had the best of both batman and superman, and even some crossover episodes and movies if i remember correctly.

i dont like the marvel vs dc comic superhero wars. both are equally awesome in their own ways!

 

[Sapphire Dreams]

Kick fucking ass !

 

[Zee-Row]

Still the best

Even at 12 I couldn't get over how dumbed down and censored this show was since I also read the comics and collected marvel cards at the time.

no saint seiya? man i miss my saint seiya pogs and placemats

 

[Raptomex]

Rocko was, and always will be, one of the best written and voice acted cartoons of all time.

You can never go wrong with classic Looney Tunes. The Rabbit of Seville still makes me laugh my ass off to this day.

Again, another classic Nicktoon. Up until the movie where the new baby came into play, that is.

Once Dil was added to Rugrats the show started taking a shit.

Doug, Tom & Jerry, 2 Stupid Dogs, Batman: The Animated Series, Ren & Stimpy (original Nick series), Tiny Toon Adventures, SpongeBob SquarePants (I can't believe this began in 1999. I feel old. But any of the episodes before the movie are great).

SWAT Kats. I just got the DVD collection recently.

 

[GCX]

The Moomins scared me..... and still does.

That's a good thing, it had some legitimately scary moments.

Also a great soundtrack: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ga_XkgtxiE&feature=relmfu

 

[IpsoFacto]

Ninja Turtles
Ren & Stimpy (far more interesting now since a lot of the really messed up stuff flew over my head when I was a kid).
Tiny Toons
Freakazoid
Garfield and Friends

 

[Mr_Zombie]

Came here to post this.
The CGI stuff dated awfully (and to think that at the time I thought it looks amazing ), but the show itself still is very good.

Also, most shows that came out of What-a-Cartoon, i.e. Dexter's Lab, Johnny Bravo (but only the first season, the rest were awful), PPG, Cow & Chicken, Courage etc. Love that stuff.

 

[See You Next Wednesday]

- Has aged surprisingly poorly

The first season was not on par with the rest of the series.

 

[Mr_Zombie]

The Moomins scared me..... and still does.

Moomins? Or just the Buka?
(You know you want to click ^that picture -- just to see it once again )

Good God, the women is starving. Someone give her some food D:

Ha ha ha, did Liefeld draw this

 

[-BLITZ-]

About 90% of what is here I watched too and is hard for me realize that so many gaffers are posting them, even those that are very old because all the buddies that I know, don't have any idea about this cartoons, either do I don't know at what they was watching back then, as their years are close to mine.

I'm very glad to be among you all, and when I thought I'm the twisted one. :/
Fox Kids and Cartoon Network used to be soo good.

Actually one of my first cartoon (after I found out that, anime is the proper word) that I've watch from the first episode to the end was
- Sailor Moon. I still remember when my tv-channel made the announcement that Sailor Moon continues with Sailor Moon Sailor Stars and the ending was just; Full Of Man Tears. This anime had so much life.

 

[BlackGhost]

So many good memories in this thread!

Beast Wars was the best IMO.

I'm not Japanese, but when I was a little kid I discovered these shows on a UHF channel that at the time was dedicated to LA's Little Tokyo populace. (Ch. 22 KWHY, can't believe I still remember that) Every Sunday at 6PM they'd show BOTH kinds of super hero shows: tokusatsu (Kikaida, Go-Ranger) AND super robots cartoons! (This was yeeeaars before the term "anime" was coined.) Anyway a few years ago I scored copies of the entire series of both of these two and after almost 30 years they did seem a lot choppier than I remembered but they're still fucking beautiful.

I hate you soo much for what you did right now. I had fucking nightmare as a kid and still when I just saw it for a sec while scrolling down. I had goose bumps

 

[olore]

Tom & Jerry

The good old Donald Duck

 

[blackwatchplad]

There's probably a few.
Not counting anime or anything...
But I got to say I still like Ed, Edd n Eddy.
It's still my favorite cartoon.

 

[StalkerUKCG]

This

 

[Drakeon]

Superman: The Animated Series deserves a specific mention.

I'm watching this right now, at age 22, and I love it more now than I ever did as a kid. Perfectly captures what Superman is all about, and creatively and intelligently updates the mythos in several areas. Having Braniac involved in the destruction of Krypton was nothing short of genius.

Came in to mention this and Batman: The Animated Series. Loved both as a kid and they still stand up, which is rare for a cartoon aimed (mostly) at kids.

 

[Subitai]

Dino-Riders!

Also:

Exo-Squad has already been mentioned a few times, and that has probably stuck with the most as I look back.

 

[Dariee]

Dino-Riders!

Wait, that stuff is real?!

I always thought it was just some awesome fanmade 'show your wildest dreams'-creation. This should be interesting.

 

[Megadragon15]

I used to watch this all the time.

Edit: My brother and I were like, "This couldn't have happened cause T-Rex existed in the Cretaceous period and Diplodocus existed in the Jurassic period millions of years apart.

It was part of the Marvel Action Universe block on Saturday mornings *sheds tear* with Spiderman and his Amazing Friends and Robocop.

And I ran......,

That made it so fucking hard to watch this series.

 

[ShirAhava]

- Has aged surprisingly well

- Has aged surprisingly poorly

Other way around...IMO

 

[Forceatowulf]

The Pokemon series up until Johto still has a very special place with me. I think it will be that one show that I will never truly grow out of. Ever.

Everything from Johto and after is just so.. bleh. I tried to get back into the series with Black and White and it's impossible. The show is just so fucking bad and repetitive...

 

[devildog820]

Lots of good stuff in here. I also really liked Eek the Cat.

 

[Agent Icebeezy]

Animaniacs
Pinky and the Brain
Tiny Toon Adventures

Three of the finest cartoons ever made.

 

[Cwarrior]

this show has aged like fine whine, don't believe me check some Apocalypse quotes
