Blues clues
SpongeBob
Justice League and Justice League Unlimited
Tiny Toon Adventures, then Animaniacs.
Kinda giving away my age, but Animaniacs was right around the time I just started appreciating characters such as Minerva Mink and Hello Nurse.
Saber Rider and the star sherrifs
Galaxy rangers
Speed Racer
Transformers, robotech, thunder cats, M.A.S.K, starcom.
For a shameless toy commercial cartoon, MASK had a pretty slappin intro theme
Starblazers
Robotech
Battle of the Planets
Dinosaucers
Space Pirate Captain Harlock
Underdog, Batfink and Karate, Rocky and Bullwinkle
I loved Rocky & Bullwinkle! Before my time but we had so many VHSes.
Batfink was a favorite of mine too! First time I've seen it mentioned out in the wild.
As a kid in the '70s, all the cartoons on Wednesday afternoons kids matinee...Vicky the Viking, Maya the Bee, Heidi, Remi, Pink Panther & Hong Kong Phooey.
Hong Kong Phooey holds a weird place in my brain. Like, I love it, but not for any good reason.
Europe I suppose?
I was never really into cartoons but I enjoyed Pee-wees Playhouse.
I used to be scared of Tintin for some reason, but loved to sit around watching it.
Bamse β vΓ€rldens starkaste bjΓΆrn!
Thundercats original series, and the original Dungeons & Dragons.
Probably Teen Titans
So many... The earliest cartoon I remember loving was The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. It was incredibly cozy. Then I discovered Cartoon Cartoons, especially Powerpuff Girls, Johnny Bravo, and Dexter's Laboratory with their throwback art styles, and got obsessed with those for a while.
Eventually SpongeBob came out and became my personality, because he was basically an annoying kid trying his best to be friends with everyone like I was. (It's played out now, it wasn't back then.)
ETA how did I not mention classic Looney Tunes. Before we had cable I was really into the classics.
Imma bend the rules:
Thunderbirds.
Once I turned 10: SpongeBob and the Simpsons
Before that: everything, including Pokémon, GummyBears, Darkwing Duck, I am Weasel, recess⦠I just loved everything!
I was a fan of Jonny Quest, the banana splits although that wasnt strictly a cartoon nor was Sigmund the sea monster and hr pufnstuf
Doraemon
This is a very big franchise in Asia but rarely mentioned in the west, so let me introduce it to (most of) you :>
Doraemon is a robot cat from the 22nd century who has gone back in time to help a kid named Nobita. He has a lot of wacky gadgets to offer. Each episode is basically a story about one of these gadgets. They also pump out a new movie every year.
Ninja Hattori is big in Asia but unknown in the rest of the world as well right?
I don't know about that. The authors of Ninja Hattori and Doraemon shared the same pen name though
Mighty Orbots, just for the theme song alone. Now that I think about it I will have that song stuck in my head all day.
Professor Kitzel.
Beast Wars for me
