2. "So heyyy, that's a pretty reasonable reaction huh?"

3. "So you up for NAFTA?"

If you click on them they hatch or grow up faster and look awesomer!!!

87.5% of all statistics are made up on the spot. If you're one of the 42% of statistics that doesn't, copy and paste this into your sig. In addition, 126.324% of the previous statement does not make sense.

I watched loads.

 

To name a few I used to watch:

 

  • Courage the Cowardly Dog
    Powerpuff Girls
    Johnny Bravo
    Rugrats
    Hey Arnold
    Samurai Jack
    Outlaw Star
    Tom and Jerry
    Loony Toons
    Pinky and the Brain
    Road Runner
    The Flinstones
    Scooby Doo
    Wacky Racers
    I Am Weasel
    Woody Woodpecker
    Hong Kong Phooey
    Casper
    Popeye the Sailor Man
    Dexter's Laboratory
    Dennis the Menace
    Inspector Gadget

 

I'm sure I'm missing a few. And I didn't watch these consistently otherwise I would have been a very fat child.

OP already got two of the greatest, Duck Tales and Dark Wing Duck. Seriously, I have all 100 episodes of Duck Tales and 91 of Darkwing Duck. Two of the best cartoons ever. EWJ was amazing too.

Old school TMNT, none of the recent ones can match up to it

Scratch that, Turtles Forever was great because it combined the current turtles, the classic turtles, and the bad ass comic turtles.

What you know about old-school?

 

I grew up with Scooby-doo, Flitstones, The Jetsons, Jonny Quest (I still love to catch the reruns on Boomerang), Transformers, Batman, Tom & Jerry, Loony Toons. I watched a couple of the those cartoons but these are the ones I watched the most during my youth. Oh and Dragon ball Z anyone? That one had me addicted till about 6th grade or so.

I don't see any...

That show was awesome. I grew up on Nickelodeon. Rocko, Hey Arnold, Rugrats, Rocket Power, the old Spongebob, Catdog, and others that I cannot think of right now. :-| Non-Nick shows were like Dexter's Lab and a bit of Courage the Cowardly Dog. Never watched Ed, Edd, and Eddy, much of the Disney/Looney-Toons shows, or 'superhero' shows. That may affect what I'm about to say below.

 

It's interesting to note, that Rocko's Modern Life was like the predecessor to today's cartoons. (Again, maybe just some)

 

-The majority of their staff went on to make their own shows or continue working in the industry in several popular shows today in high positions. (Which in some shows you can clearly see the influence from Rocko)

 

-Most shows after this used a "permanent setting" story. Meaning, the plot and characters revolved around a single location unlike, say, Ren & Stimpy where they were all over the place in unnamed locations. Spongebob stayed within Krusty Krab and Bikini Bottom, Rocket Power around Ocean Shores, etc. Like a common "hang out" place. The characters are now more restricted by their current setting.

 

-Dual-plots became practically standard. Before more shows had only a single plot following a few characters. Now few do. (Including live action shows on "cartoon" stations)

 

-A "second show" gone. I think this highlights the old cartoons: a mini-show within two or more episodes of the "main show". The Monkey superhero and the Justice Friends from Dexter's Lab, Weasel and Bamboon from Ren and Stimpy, you know what I mean, right?

 

-A more "permanent" character group. Before, it seemed like characters interacted with several nameless characters being a major player of an episode like in Catdog or Ren & Stimpy. Now it seems like the already established characters are the only major characters of an episode.

 

 

I don't know, maybe I'm just rambling on thinking about things that don't matter. Am I the only one who analyzes these things?

 

Oh, and a show I'm watching right now on Boomerang that TOTALLY reminds me of my own dog:

As for today's cartoons...meh. Maybe I'm not seeing them with the same "kid personality", but most of them are re-used storylines and characters with a loser-kid oriented plot. (Though most other movies and shows (live action) are so too). When have you seen a jock as a main character or a girl for that matter?

 

But not all is in vain. I'm sure most of you will agree Invader Zim is a very amusing show as much as when I was a kid and now. Phineas and Ferb has got to be the best cartoon these last five years. Spongebob...no comment. <_<

Good catch Das, I was never much for GI JOE or Transformers, but <3 x-men and the old batman (and the live action batman with adam west, used to rerun).

 

Everyone else who watched Johnny Quest, please, please, please, PLEASE tell me you watch Venture Brothers
