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.

Underdog, Batfink and Karate, Rocky and Bullwinkle

[–] Alice@beehaw.org 2 points 3 days ago

I loved Rocky & Bullwinkle! Before my time but we had so many VHSes.

[–] Truffle@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 days ago

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.

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 days ago

Hong Kong Phooey holds a weird place in my brain. Like, I love it, but not for any good reason.

[–] N00b22@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 days ago

Europe I suppose?

[–] multifariace@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

I was never really into cartoons but I enjoyed Pee-wees Playhouse.

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 days ago

I used to be scared of Tintin for some reason, but loved to sit around watching it.

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.

[–] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 2 points 3 days ago

Imma bend the rules:

Thunderbirds.

[–] Nikls94@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Once I turned 10: SpongeBob and the Simpsons

Before that: everything, including PokΓ©mon, GummyBears, Darkwing Duck, I am Weasel, recess… I just loved everything!

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 days ago

[–] NorthWestWind@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago (2 children)

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.

[–] N00b22@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Ninja Hattori is big in Asia but unknown in the rest of the world as well right?

[–] NorthWestWind@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

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.

[–] swordgeek@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 days ago

Professor Kitzel.

Beast Wars for me
