If you recognize this quote, I'll love you for life.

"Let's get dangerous..." >D

Alyssia 09-27-2010 07:34 PM

That would be Darkwing Duck. I have to say that it took me a moment to get it all together though. I remember that one well, and for whatever reason thinking of that cartoon brought this one to mind, my mom and I would watch this one together. Beetlejuice

Orvi 09-27-2010 08:31 PM

Pokemon, the first season, the best season, in my opinion anyway XP

Alyssia 09-28-2010 05:34 AM

As far as Pokenon goes I do have to agree with you there, it just didn't feel the same afterwards you know. I've looked at the other seasons and they're alright...just not the same feel you know.

Speaking of that made me remember the following cartoons

Digimon
Monster Rancher
One Piece
Bleach

If you've seen Digimon tell me what you think....I'm kinda sold on the first story arc though.

Inari 09-28-2010 07:00 AM

Pink Panther! x3 I missed that show soo much I downloaded it and burnt it to disk =w=

but growing up.. most of the time we didn't even have basic cable so I just watch Disny movies and westerns mom would buy =w=

GrnTea 09-28-2010 09:01 AM

Oh mah gawd yes! All the oldschool Nickelodeon shows!
Catdog
Hey Arnold (I still NEED to find all the seasons)
Rugrats
Pokemon
Doug
Ed Edd and Eddy
Power Puff Girls xD
God... Those were the days... :(

Alexander Linden 09-28-2010 09:12 AM

A lot of the same as GrnTea + first season of Pokemon and Cardcaptor Sakura.

I also saw that old Rainbow Brite and My Little Pony movies for some reason... >.>

Inari 09-28-2010 09:25 AM

Those are the exact shows I grew up watching </3
D:
Plus a few Disney anime shows on Toonami. <3

Cronislee 09-28-2010 08:12 PM

History Channel, Discovery Channel, and the occasional Animal Planet. The end result was teachers stopped calling on me because I knew too much for my own good.
Also alot of Anime thx. to Adult Swim.

Alyssia 09-29-2010 01:03 AM

I've read everyone's posts....I have to say that my mom loved CatDog and Hey Arnold....I think that Helga was her favorite character from that show.

Ed Edd and Eddy was something that I had to me in the mood to watch, I did like the Powerpuff Girls. Those Rainbow Brite and My Little Pony videos are like worth $20+ nowadays. Oh does anyone happen to remember that one disney show that featured a family of very bouncy bears?

Recalls a few more cartoons

Cow and Chicken (my mom loved The Red Guy)
I am Weasel
The Smurfs
The Magic School Bus
Wishbone(not a cartoon)
Scooby Doo (I really liked the ones that featured HollyWood stars of the time...Scooby Doo Movies I think it was called.)


I also used to watch Wrestling with my great grandmother...gosh I used to love hanging out with her.<3 She loved Clint Eastwood so I ended out looking at a lot of westerns too. I think that my favorite one was The Good The Bad and The Ugly.

Moon 09-30-2010 07:06 PM

My cousin was the one that watched Rugrats!
I was waaaay into Sailor Moon and Magic School Bus.
As well as most others:
School House Rock, Dinosaurs, Wishbone, Reading Rainbow, Lamb Chop's Play Along, Doug, Gargoyles,
Darkwing Duck, Animaniacs, Angry Beavers, Tailspin, Pinky and the Brain, Big Comfy Couch, Bonkers,
Captain Planet, Arthur, Hey Arnold, Chip n' Dale Rescue Rangers, Boy Meets World, Sabrina, etc.

I feel all kinds of nostalgic, now.

Jurinjo 12-06-2010 09:14 AM

Nearly ALL of the shows mentioned I watched xD I had no life as a kid. If not at school I was doing one of three things:
1) Watching TV
2) Playing Pokemon on my Gameboy (remember when they used to require batteries? xD)
3) Playing "Show" as we called. (it's bascially LARPing but we had no idea at the time)

Absinthe 12-06-2010 10:44 AM

Hmmm -ponders-

I mostly watched what my parents watched, so news and sitcoms.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, old Bugs Bunny cartoons, Mary Poppins (I knew it so well I'd act out the scenes and say all the lines as they happened XD), Cheers, Murphy Brown, M*A*S*H, Darkwing Duck, Rescue Rangers, Blackadder, Mr. Bean, Keeping Up Appearances (British comedy), The Smurfs, Frasier, The Sally Jessie Raphael Show, old school Oprah, The Arsenio Hall Show, late night shows (usually Letterman I believe), etc.

Reading through others' lists, I have no clue what most of those shows are XD

/shot for being too old.

banana 12-07-2010 07:56 PM

OH PLEASE?!
NO ONE WATCHED HEIDI?
OR MARCO?
OR DRAGON BALL?

Shenandoah 12-08-2010 10:00 AM

Lots and lots of Scooby Doo. Probably not the most educational, but I loved the specials where the Harlem Globe Trotters came on.

Letiel 12-08-2010 02:17 PM

I watched just about everything but Zoids was my fav. X3

hrm... lets see i think mighty max had a cartoon back then though i was more of a outside person as a kid xP i think later i was into sailor moon for a time.. but i was more of a tom boy as a child xD so it was more of teenage mutant ninja turtles an street sharks

between the sharks cartoon an mighty max there may be one other person who even recalls hearing about them xD

I didn't watch a lot of television as a kid, actually. ;; It was mainly Pokemon, Scooby-Doo, and Arthur. @ u @;;

blarasorous 12-25-2010 03:28 AM

I watched a lot of discovery channel, the weekend would be Saturday morning cartoons, then the discovery channel Sunday show-case. I was disappointed when they stopped doing that... Crocodile Hunter was one of my favorites, when Steve died I was very sad. =( He was a childhood hero to me.

What else... Wishbone, Magic School Bus, Bill Nye the Science Guy, Angry Beavers, Pokemon, Monster Rancher, Digimon, Medabots (although the ending of that series confused me), Spongebob, Rugrats, Cat Dog, Courage the Cowardly Dog, I am Weasel, Yvon of the Yukon (not sure if that show played outside of Canada), and others I just don't remember right now.

Cartoons are awesome. :D

johnny 12-25-2010 12:28 PM

I watched a lot of sitcoms (Saved By the Bell, Family Matters, Cosby Show, Cheers, Boy Meets World, NewsRadio). My cartoons were mostly old Loony Toons, and some 90s cartoons like Powerpuff Girls, Johnny Bravo, and Dexter's Lab. For a year or so, I watched Pokemon and Sailor Moon, but I grew out of that fairly quickly.

When the Animal Planet channel appeared, I watched it pretty much 24/7 (or, rather, 12/7 since it turned into infomercials in the middle of the night).

And I watched the old black and white episodes of Zorro.

I had some pretty un-childish tastes in TV when I was a child. xD

Archaical 12-25-2010 03:09 PM

tmnt, power rangers, sailor moon, and all those saturday morning tidbits..
bump in the night was one of my faves!

Kit Katy 12-27-2010 08:58 PM

TeenTitans
Flintstones
Jetsons
Smurfs
Rugrats
Wild Thornberries
Code Lyoko
Reboot
Tenshi Muyo

I'm sure there's more shows. I just can't think of the rest right now. I watched waaay too much TV. Um...I still do..

Burial 12-30-2010 05:07 AM

JessehBoo 12-30-2010 05:09 AM

Fake 01-02-2011 05:18 PM

I didn't have cable back then, so I could only watch these chinese cartoons. They were pretty amusing, and helped me learn chinese, but the drawings were kind of ugly xD

Arachnocampa 01-04-2011 07:15 PM



I used to love Dudley the Dragon and Barney as a wee, wee lass. That and the Big Comfy Couch.

As far as cartoons go, though:

Dexter's Laboratory
Courage the Cowardly Dog
Power Puff Girls
Samurai Jack
Cow and Chicken
Pokemon
Digimon
Jackie Chan's Adventures
Code Lyoko
Hamtaro
Teen Titans
Yu-Gi-Oh!

Awh, man. The list goes on! I was mostly a Cartoon Network junkie. Now, though? Cartoon Network's been goin' downhill. :[

I mean, come on! Live Action on Cartoon Network??


johnny 01-04-2011 07:56 PM

Actually, Cartoon Network isn't even called Cartoon Network anymore.

I'm pretty sure they're officially changed the name to just "CN" or something to make up for the fact that they're showing live action shows now.

That's what my brother tells me anyway.

Despe 01-05-2011 11:37 PM

All the old Cartoon Network cartoons, and some animes (naruto and inyuyasha) which were chinese dubbed.

Agent Night 01-06-2011 09:44 PM

X-Men (original AND evolution), spiderman, the tick, loony tunes, tiny toons, animaniacs, hysertia, freakazoid; all the classics XD

Digimon always beat pokemon in my mind. I loved it still. I need to get back into it.

Monster Rancher = helped me get my sisters kids into anime. I found a box set at walmart for 10 and got it. Kinda miss it.. I am going to have to hunt it down.

One piece was eh.

Bleach is like a Days of our lives.. I could miss say half the year of watching and still know what is going on at this point.

(i use to watch)
All That on Nick.
Amanda Show

Cartoon network (when it was cool)
Evil Conconarna and Grim

Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy

Toonim with Multar as the host. then they got tom. Then tom's replacements killed the show. >.> tom will never be forgiven. Well kinda I got to see Blue sub do to him.

Random Cartoons
Sailor moon
Animanicas
Weekenders

*at this point I have my childhood coming back and I need to go home and watch the Hub.. They show some of my old shows*

Oh and I love Lucy.
(i still watch this stuff.. who said I would ever stop.. Cartoon network needs a 90's day. >.>)

Echo-chan713 01-22-2011 09:44 PM

I remember my sister watching Dragonball Z (never caught on to it) and Tenchi Muyo (neither did that one)

Tadhana 01-22-2011 10:50 PM

I used to watch like a ton of shows on Nickelodeon. Anybody remember Figure It Out and Legends of the Hidden Temple? Those were my favorite shows! Also Kenan and Kel and All That. 8D

There were also a lot of Tagalog dubbed anime and cartoons. For some reason, I remember Princess Sarah and Yaiba. And like...a shit ton of other anime of which the titles escape me now. o u o;

And with the maid, I'd watch noontime variety shows and again, Tagalog-dubbed dramas (telenobelas) like Marimar. 8D

Fiyero 01-23-2011 11:04 PM

I loved all of the old Nickelodeon shows...
and Buffy the Vampire Slayer...been watching it since I was six...rofl..
terrible parenting on my parent's part..but..
