    yeah those were quality.

    also, anyone remember the one where i think mickey, donald, and goofy (and maybe someone else) are going on vacation and they're pulling a trailer behind them going down a mountain and the trailer gets loose and goes through all sorts of crazy stuff down the mountain and ends up hooked up to the car again w/o goofy ever knowing it came off. i loved that one.

    1. Fat Albert
    2. The Flintstones
    3. Looney Tunes, mainly Bugs Bunny
    4. Scooby-Doo (all versions except the ones that featured cheesy guest stars and of course the ones that featured Scrappy-Doo)
    5. Underdog
    6. Bullwinkle

    I know Bullwinkle was a Scott and Ward cartoon and I am pretty sure Underdog was as well. These were great cartoons and also included Commander McBragg, Dudley Do-Right, Peabody's Improbable History, Fractured Fairy Tales, George of the Jungle, Roger Ramjet, Super Chicken, Tom Slick, The Hunter, Leonardo the King, and many more.

    Thank God for the Boomerang network.

    Cartoons are one of the few things I watch when I do watch television along with sports, Seinfeld, the Simpsons, Spin City, and vh-1 Classic, lol.

    ANyome here remember the old Hercules cartoon? The one with the theme song sung by Johnny Nash? I remember being VERY young watching it.

    Hercules,
    hero of song and story
    Hercules,
    winner of ancient glory
    fighting for the right
    fighting with his might
    with the strength of ten
    ordinary men
    Hercules,
    people are safe when near him
    Hercules,
    only the evil fear him
    softness in his eyes
    iron in his thighs
    virtue in his heart
    fire in every part
    of the mighty
    Hercules!




    You can listen to that song here:

    Good call. What a great cartoon. I thought the live action series was going to be a hit, but well, it wasn't.

    Favorite Cartoons of all time, in no particular order:
    Dungeons & Dragons -- Loved this one
    Transformers -- More than meets the eye. I just sold my old Transformers for $1,400. I miss 'em, but it was worth it.
    G.I. Joe -- Yo Joe!
    ThunderCats -- HOOOOOOOOO!
    Animaniacs -- a TON of more adult-oriented humor
    He-Man -- the new one is cool, too
    Looney Toons -- can't go wrong here. And the music is truly classic.
    Tom & Jerry -- probably my favorite cartoon of all time of the slap-stick variety.

    I do. Thats was good one.

    Probably the best "old school cartoon" is the old Popeye the Sailor. I'm talking the black and white ones. The art work is fantastic.

    When Popeye (or someone else) is walking down the street in those old cartoons, the background constantly changes and seems to be alive. You don't see the same buildings in every other frame and nothing else going on except the character walking. In other words, boring as hell.

    In the mid to late 60's, the studios took cost cutting measures and began mass producing cartoons. The cartoon world has never been the same:(

    If we want to delve into the realm of obscure,

    How about Deputy Dog.

    Does anybody remember that total Scooby Doo knockoff that USA Cartoon Express had back in the early 80s called "The Clue Club."

    I remember watching that show a lot when I was 5.

    I always remember watching Muppet Babies as well, but I kinda just watched it because it was sandwiched between The Real Ghostbusters and The Loony Toons show on Saturday morning.

    Others I liked:

    All the classics:

    Transformers
    Finstones
    GI Joe
    Thundercats
    Jetsons
    TMNT

    Others:

    X-Men
    Batman
    Spiderman
    Super Mario Bros. Supershow with the Zelda cartoon on Friday that they should have made into a 5 day a week show, or at least a Saturday morning cartoon.
