[Kitaman]

Don't know why but this was my favorite, never missed an episode:

[B1GEast]

This was a cool cartoon

 

[B1GEast]

Still a big fan, loved the Macross saga

 

[B1GEast]

Who remembers Mister Jaw and Catfish?

 

[browndog319]

Not a cartoon, but I was hooked. I didn't understand why the sleestack aliens were there as well

I loved that show. And part of the same group of shows was another weird show called “Electra Woman & Dyna Girl”. I loved it. It was short lived.

Jonny Quest notwithstanding, the Hanna-Barbara toons of the 60's were uniformly awful. Cheap and unfunny, as opposed to Bullwinkle's cheap and funny. The good ones came from outside H-B, like The Mighty Heroes!

 

[Doctor Hoop]

Not a cartoon, but definitely cartoon-ish ... Lancelot Link, Secret Chimp

Any fans of Starblazers? It wasn't on very long. Naval space battleship.

Looney Tunes were my all-time favorite and still are. Taz was my spirit animal.

Rocky and Bullwinkle were a close second with Fractured Fairy Tales, Aesop and Son, Peabody and Sherman, Commander McBragg.

Lot of great ones listed too. Wacky Races, Hong Kong Phooey, Popeye.

 

[Doctor Hoop]

The worst animation ever? Clutch Cargo, hands down.

 

[Doctor Hoop]

And, of course, Thunderbirds!



However, Jonny Quest and Rocky & Bullwinkle were the top of my list.

Im a Flintstones guy, but that was not originally a Saturday morning cartoon. The Frantic City episode, "The Buffalo Convention," is CLASSIC ("doctor is a plumber . . .)." The VHS version (RIP) also had "Mother-In-Law's Visit" on it, a double bonus

Saturday am I'll go with Roadrunner, for the sheer amount of violence inflicted on the Coyote. And have to add, what about all the gun violence in Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck. No way that flys in todays society (although its never a fatal shootin injury).

 

[UconnMICK]

Only because it reminds me of our long lost AAC refs...

 

[T-Squared]

Not a cartoon, but definitely cartoon-ish ... Lancelot Link, Secret Chimp

This was FABULOUS! A true gem.

now this is a great thread. in real time, and not saturday am viewing, aquateen, harvey birdman, space ghost, and a bunch of other adult swim products, plus duckman, ren and stimpy, family guy (decades long and still going strong!) and so on, were my go to's. but coming from a family 'watching' cartoons forever(betty boop, etc), I saw/see many from the last almost hundred years. johnny quest saturday seems to be a big fond memory for many. so, sat am toonfest? this would be my choice:

I don't know too much aboot movies, or tv shows, but cartoons? (and anime is decidedly not 'cartoons' in the American sense of the word). now we're talking. im thinking it was mostly one way for them, until around the time speed racer, gigantor, astro boy, and etc. changed the game. for better or worse. all-time number one is still family guy for me, but here, have some 12 oz mouse. it ain't quickdraw mcGraw, or gumby and pokie.

'that oh, so merry, chuckleberry, huckleberry hound!'

 

[ClifSpliffy]

'nah, nah, nah, gonna have a good time.' I mean, they tell you in the intro 'you're going to have a good time,' so how can you go wrong watching? sign me up.

and don't forget the cooooolest cat:

Teletubbies Intro and Theme Song Videos For Kids

 

[A10 fan]

So many great ones, led of course by the Warner Brothers stuff. We used to watch Herman and Katnip, Popeye, Top Cat. One of my favorites that hasn't been mentioned is this. Loved the theme song as well, but man, that Go Go Gophers is about as politically incorrect as you could get in the 1960s (not as bad as the portrayal of blacks and Asians in the 40s though).

This was another favorite.

Maybe you missed the irony. The Go Go Gophers only played dumb, in fact their winning streak may be longer than the Road Runner's.

Has anyone mentioned Pink Panther yet? Great stuff.

It wasn't the behavior that was politically incorrect, it was the artwork that was questionable. It's like why Chief Wahoo was more controversial than the Chiefs having an arrowhead on their helmet.

This Thread is hilarious, lol. Anyone in here under 50?
