Favorite Childhood Television Shows

[N-Sef]

The Adventures of Johnny Quest, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Transformers, Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers (when they hit Zeo, I stopped watching) and there were plenty of others I can't think of at the moment.

My childhood was pretty rockin with these shows, got some great memories.

Samurai Pizza Cats, who could forget the laughably bad script and terrible storyline? I sure couldn't! Rocko's Modern Life and Loony Tunes were always awesome.

I think there's one I'm forgetting...

David the Gnome, when I was really young. But I loved Gargoyles, Darkwing Duck, Tale Spin, Duck Tales, Extreme Ghostbusters, Rocko's Modern Life, and Ren and Stimpy. I remember some live action shows on Nickelodeon I watched, like the Tomorrow People. I was a huge fan of that one sci-fi show on Nick, Space Cases. Oh, and the Snick shows. Remember? Are You Afraid of the Dark and Roundhouse (actually, Ren and Stimpy was one of those).

Of course, I'm still watching plenty of cartoons even now.

I was born in 1973 so I remember the golden age of Saturday Morning Cartoons well. What's up with all these live-action shows now for kids that are little more than sit-coms and soap operas starring kids? Hannah Montana? Wizards of Waverly Place? Come on. The old cartoons is where its at. We lived in the country and only got three channels on antenna, so I watched NBC, PBS and ABC (when it wasn't too staticy). So I mainly saw cartoons like Smurfs, Strawberry Shortcake (my sister's two favorites); He-Man, Spider-man and Friends, Justice League, Droids (I loved that show and wished it hadn't been so short lived), Ewoks, Inspector Gadget, Looney Tunes reruns (never got old), The Real Ghostbusters, etc.

When I'd go to visit my grandma who lived in town, we could see more channels since she and Grandpa had cable. They had Disney Channel which showed all the classic Disney cartoons and USA had some great cartoons like Danger Mouse, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Rocky and Bullwinkle. TBS had all the reruns of classic cartoons like The Jetsons, The Flintstones, The Great Grape Ape, Godzilla etc.

I think of all the shows I saw, I probably liked Justice League and Spider-man the best. Though the Looney Tunes shows never failed to make me laugh.

Since I've "grown up", I've seen a few newer cartoons I like too like Batman the animated series and Samurai Jack. I've also discovered some great anime like Robotec and Appleseed.

Reboot, just to say it again. Reboot is like the best cartoon ever made.

 

[Sylocat]

ReBoot, how could I forget ReBoot? That was AWESOME.

 

[Cahlee]

Gumbi, Mr Squiggle, Brum, Super Ted, Banana Man, Noddy, this list goes on..

Captain Planet, he's our hero. Gona take polution down to zero..

 

[Galletea]

Reboot, just to say it again. Reboot is like the best cartoon ever made.

Yes indeed.
As a child I liked:
Spot the Dog
Thomas the Tank Engine

Bucky O Hare
Bananaman
Darkwing Duck and Talespin.

I also loved Power rangers! Go yellow!

There weren't many I'd consider my "favorite", as they were mostly just mindless, forgettable entertainment (even as a child, I grew sick of television), but one show always stuck with me. Reboot. God, I loved that show. I don't remember many shows from my very early childhood, at least any that I'd say I liked, so I'll stick with this one and call it a day.

That was indeed a very good show, too bad it canceled before it finished. (They end the last episode on a cliff hanger in order to get production to let them keep doing a show.)

 

[PureChaos]

Albert the 5th Musketeer
Fairly Odd Parents (although i still watch that)
Anamaniacs
X-Men
Pokemon
Hey, Arnold
Arther (what a wonderful time of day, hey!!)
Animals of Farthing Wood

 

[Johnn Johnston]

Angry Beavers? I'd almost forgotten about that! Man, I used to love that show.

 

[nought_0]

Tizwas, Fingermouse, chorlton and the wheelies, Jamie and the magic torch, and Trumpton/Camberwick green.

-No wonder I'm so screwed up.
-But i think that was down to the moomins.

 

[freakyHippo]

He's the greatest, he's fantastic, wherever there is danger he'll be there. He's the ace, he's amazing, he's the strongest, he's the quickest, he's the best.

DangerMouse!

Danger Mouse was (is) badass.

I also liked Transformers, MASK, Defenders of the Earth, He-man, Superted, Banana Man.

Also don't ever forget Thundercats.

 

[bad rider]

Pingu!

 

[JohnneyLightning]

I can't believe I forgot the '90s animated Spiderman and X-Men series. Those were two of the best animated shows of the ninties, in my opinion. I prefer Spiderman to X-Men though. It was just a bit more enjoyable.

 

[notyouraveragejoe]

Power Rangers - I thought it was really cool.
Pokemon - I loved the whole thing. The show, the games even the cards!
Digimon - This was just brilliant to me!

 

[Some_Jackass]

Might Morphin Power Rangers! (Zeo after that was decent, not great. Once Turbo came out, I knew my childhood had ended)

Legends of the Hidden Temple
Pokemon

 

[JohnneyLightning]

GUTS was pretty awesome. Except for Mike O'Malley. Why he felt the need to constantly point at the camera and yell, i'll never know.
