Other than The Simpsons and King of the Hill, I watch Recess every now and again.

I made sure to watch the premiere episode of PowerPuff Girls. I havent’ stuck with it, and now and again if I walk in while the kids are watching it, I realize I’ve missed out on some very very insidiously funny stuff.

Rocky & Bullwinkle. Oh boy. What wit, what layered humor.

I still like to catch the occasional Tom & Jerry. There’s just something about the Mouse, Cat, Dog dynamic.

That one I’ve had to fight. Thankfully there’s no way in hell I’m getting up that early and CN no longer carries it but when it came on before Toonami, sigh.

Anyway you should really check out the Pretty Sammy episodes off the Mihoshi special Tenchi Muyo DVD. Very funny.

Beavis and Butthead kick ass. Huh-huh, I said ass. 🙂  
Do they even air Gummi Bears anymore? I never see it on anymore. Now the song’s in my head, too.

- Dashing and daring, courageous and caring  
Faithful and friendly with stories to share  
All through the forest they sing out in chorus  
Marching along as their song fills the air…\*

The really sad part is I typed that completely from memory.

Count me in with the Recess lovers. Yeah, I saw the movie, too.

Also, it’s not a cartoon, but I adore Bear in the Big Blue House.

See, I don’t really have any guilt watching cartoons…

But just to play along.

Harvey Birdman rocks this thread…and Goofy. All hail Goofy!

Just like any other typical American guy, I love the Simpsons and South Park. Dexter’s Laboratory and Johnny Bravo are really damn funny sometimes, and Johnny has some of the best one-liners I’ve ever heard. One in particular I’ve added to my repertoire:

“Wow, that just wasn’t even clever!”

Oh yeah, big big big Dragonball Z fan here, too. I can not wait for Cartoon Network to start showing DBGT!

**Ka…me…ha…me…HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!**

I enjoy many of the ones previously mentioned, but my _guilty_ pleasure is …

… lusting after Kim Possible.

I mean, I’m old enough to be her _daddy_, for heaven’s sake.

I don’t have cable these days, so my only answer is Buzz Lightyear of Star Command. If I had cable I’d be watching Powerpuff Girls, Space Ghost, and (the old) Dexter’s Lab.

Has no one mentioned Pinky and the Brain (brain, brain, brain…)?

If I had cable, I’d definitely watch that. It’s not a guilty pleasure though. I have a Pinky sticker on my car; I’m not afraid to admit my love.

_ **SPEED RACER** _

… although I haven’t seen it in years. It’ll come back, though - it always does!

Oh and I have to admit a fondness for Pingu.

Futurama  
Kim Possible

Those are my main two cartoon obsessions right now.
