When I was a kid we had:

Thundarr The Barbarian
Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels
Jabberjaw
Dungeons & Dragons
Hong Kong Phooey
Dynomutt
Speed Buggy
and later Count Duckula, Star Blazers, Robotech

and Saturday Morning Live-action shows like:
Ark II
Jason Of Star Comman
Land of the Lost
Krofft's Supershow
Shazam/Isis Hour
Space Academy

Seriously 3 channels of cartoons/kid's shows from 7AM to 12PM- could never watch them all.


Yep, I watched all of those. But you forgot about GI Joe, Transformers, Superfriends, HeMan, Robotix, and The Herculoids. I actually also grew up watching Ranma 1/2 but it wasn't on normal TV over here.

There are some good ones today, I suggest:

Avatar
Ren and Stimpy (older episodes, the new ones are just gay sex)
Invader Zim
Shin Chan
Sealab
Frisky Dingo
Harvey Birdman
Venture Bros.

I totally disagree, it was one of the last good animated shows on television. But the Ren and Stimpy shorts that played at the Sick & Twisted Animation Film Festivals before it went to TV were even better.

All Grown Up kinda took away part of it though. It was less of that magical child innocence and more of the typical teen drama.

Everything now is either a Teen Drama, Child friendly, or some product placement (mostly japanese kid animes).

Pinky & The Brain





The Brain: Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?
Pinky: I think so Brain... but do I really need 2 tongues?

Brilliant show
