Talking Fun: Cartoons you loved as a child!!

Ok the smurf nursery got me thinking about the cartoons that I loved watching as a child. I know Daria probably won't get to enjoy the ones I loved.

What are the cartoons you grew up watching and would have loved for your child(ren) to have enjoyed too.

Here are a few of mine:
Smurfs (big time)
Jetsons
Flintstones
Muppets (not really a cartoon)
Bugs Bunny


I am sure there are more I just can't think of them right now.

Scooby Doo was my all-time favorite with The Jetsons coming in second and The Flintstones a close third.

Love these FUN threads!

I used to watch a show called The Banana Splits...

Well I just googled to be sure the name and found out that it was from a decade before I was born!!!

SO I guess I was watching re-runs the whole time...


I think that is the show and they had a giant slide that they came down??? I dont remember anything else about it except they came down a slide...

hahaha!

Definitely Scooby Doo! But I also loved Josie and the *****cats. (I'm probably really dating myself with that one! ) I also remember the Banana Splits; it was one of my brothers' favorites.

I am still a cartoon junkie, addicted to the cartoon network (daytime and the adult swim programs).

favorite cartoons as a child (and I can tell everyone's age by the cartoons they loved, and I'm way older than most of you at 44):

sinbad the sailor (totally had a crush on him as he pulled his belt and grew a buff physique)

jonny quest (the old one, not those new ones) I wanted to be a "scientist" like his dad. what was up with Haji (sp)? did they go to India, grab a brown kid for companionship for jonny?!?

Favorite cartoons now:
gargoyles (repeats now from the 1990s)
Xmen
family guy
Kim possible
Justice league (all its diff forms)
Batman (various forms)

there are more but it would then appear that all I do is watch cartoons

Does anybody remember "Schoolhouse Rock"? I LOVED that! It's how I remember the preamble to the Constitution, "We the people in order to form a more perfect union establish just insure domestic tranquility. Provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this constitution of the United States of America". (I remember all that from that silly song! )

I know, y'all are thinking what Willie Wonka would say..."you're really weird".

Oh - you guys are so young (even you, Lisa!)

I probably won't get the names of the shows right, but I remember watching Yogi Bear/Jellystone Park (I even still have the old plastic plate with all the characters on it), Quick Draw McGraw, Underdog, and Popeye. I'll probably remember more later...

Brenda,

I loved Thundercats, too. He-man, She-ra, Tranzor-Z (or whatever it was called..it was about a giant robot). I liked the Spiderman and friends cartoon, too.

Snagglepuss (and aaaway we go...fun even)
Speed Buggy..I think that was the name


There was another cartoon that I liked...I forget its name...but it had Mandrake the Magician, the Puma (I think), two others...and their kids.

As you can see, I didn't have a limit on the hours I could watch TV ... yet I was still an honor student up until I hit my senior year, go figure?

David
