• What did you watch as a kid?

So pretty much TV sucks these days, as far as cartoons go anyways. Hell, most of the shows with actors suck too. There are some shows that I like and are worth watching in my opinion: Phineas and Ferb, Regular Show, Adventure Time and sometimes Flapjack, however with Canada's lack of cartoon network I have to watch most things online which sort of sucks. I don't remember much of the 90's, so this thread might lack much of the nostalgia you're all craving but it's what I used to watch at least, only the later years but even the early 2000's had some pretty rad TV shows. Some of what I watched and loved as a kid are: [b]He-Man[/b] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yeA7a0uS3A[/media] [b]Tiny Toon Adventures[/b] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-uad6zBG1o[/media] [b]Tintin[/b] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OkDrDlC_vJU&feature=related[/media] [b]Ren and Stimpy[/b] (I'm only now beginning to get most of the jokes) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V8128ALWnow[/media] [b]Darkwing Duck[/b] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=375ENQbru8s[/media] [b]Doug[/b] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tS4egPPT7o8[/media] [b]Rugrats[/b] (couldn't find a decent version of the original) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wvn-3Fd3yqE&feature=related[/media] [b]Batman Beyond[/b] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3ZZIUTQYV4[/media] [b]Goof Troop[/b] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqE74c54Nfc[/media] [b]Animaniacs[/b] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KA0TS9l_nJE[/media] [b]Magic School Bus[/b] (most of my current science knowledge comes from this show) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpu50t97U0M[/media] [b]ReBoot[/b] (I never really got into it until recently when reruns started coming on) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBjWCT4NPHI[/media] [b]Donkey Kong Country[/b] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTGMS3jDxV0[/media] [b]Aaahh!!

There are so many more that I can't find or just don't remember, not to mention shows like All That and Keenan and Kel which aren't cartoons. Anyways, hopefully this will get your brains flowing and pull up some of the other shows that you guys used to watch, I'm sure there are some gems that I missed. Post what you watched as a kid!
Everything you posted in the OP i have watched.
I didn't even mention shows like Fresh Prince of Bel Air, I was too busy with cartoons. Man TV rocked back then. I would have mentioned Rocko's Modern Life too, but for some reason I found it boring and never really gave it a chance.
As a kid, I lived on an semi-private, semi-remote island so we only got one channel watched stuff like, inspector gadget, popular mechanic for kids, reboot ect. I did live in England for a while, and i watched stuff like Thomas the tank engine, postman pat, pinky and the brain and the like. when we did get more channels, i watched the more educational stuff on discovery kids, but i still got in some Courage the cowardly dog, Ed Edd and Eddy, and Dexter's Laboratory.

[QUOTE=usaokay;30134306]Just realized how crappy the voice acting and the animation was for that show. Some of the episodes were really interesting though.[/QUOTE] as far as I know they're still making it. I still get the library card song stuck in my head from time to time.

[QUOTE=Chekko;30134445][img]http://blog.media-freaks.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/free-hidden-object-games-29.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] They need to put stuff like this back on nickelodeon (I'm disappointed in that channel; they play Angry Beavers and CatDog at around 2am but its not enough), get rid of dora the explorer and let kids watch a real cartoon.

After clicking the link to the Arthur theme song, I saw the Dragontales theme song video, so I decided to visit the old site to see if they still had this game I used to play "The [B]Dragontales[/B] Web site doesn't live on pbskids.org any more. For more information, please contact the program producers" :smith:
