What childhood cartoon did you love?

[Mayne]

Lets start if off with the best.

followed by Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle (1976)

followed by all the hanna-barbera stuff of course

Got hooked on giant robots in the early 80's and raced home to record Robotech after school.

I stopped watching cartoons when Saved by the bell made cartoons obsolete..because thats what fucking little fucking kids liked...i was so mad. where was my X-men on Saturday morning? all down hill after that I guess.

Generic cartoons(no recurring characters) from the 30s-50s.

[Oyeve]

Non of those!

For me it was Woody Wood Pecker, Bugs Bunny (pre 1970s) Tom and Jerry. Some of the Sid and Marty Croft shows, like land of the lost, Sigmund and the Sea Monsters. HATED most late 70s and 80s garbage. I did like Battle for the planets tho, and voltron.

I loved watching The Animaniacs as a kid. Otherwise, every morning before school it was Duck Tails and Jonny Quest.

 

[tynopik]

ah, Dennis the Menace too

 

[renz20003]

The Simpsons

 

[zinfamous]

I loved old Loony Toons stuff.

Then Captain Caveman/Grape Ape/Jabber Jaws, etc.

Danger Mouse.

Then the afternoon lineups of Ducktales and the various spinoffs. Beetlejuice, Eek the Cat, etc. Batman.

I watched the X-Men cartoon because I was into comics those years, but I always thought that cartoon was horrible.

 

[LevelSea]

Angry Beavers
Ren & Stimpy

not exactly childhood material

I was 6-7 the first time I watched it (and I watched it quite a few times, let me tell you!)

Unico, Flight of Dragons, Rocky & Bullwinkle, Looney Tunes, and yeah, the classic Tiny Toons & Animaniacs, but I was in my teens by then.

I watched the X-Men cartoon because I was into comics those years, but I always thought that cartoon was horrible.

That's how I was with the various Nintendo cartoons... they weren't good, but they were still Mario & Zelda and stuff.
Fortunately by then we'd gotten a new VCR, so I was able to set up the old one to record those cartoons in the morning. Yeah, I'd WATCH them, but I wasn't going to get up at six in the morning to do it.

 

[soulcougher73]

GI Joe
Transformers
Warner Bros.
Scooby Doo
Thundercats
Voltron

Those are the ones that come to mind at the moment. Im sure their are others.

Bugs Bunny, Animaniacs were two of my favourites. Smoggies was fun too. So nostalgic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdCfCSfkLqQ

Robotech

I only have vague memories of the original broadcast, but the series seems so cornball now lol. Currently watching Macross for the first time, and despite what the purists believe, I think Carl Macek did a pretty good job adapting the original.
