I’ve got my kids with me 3-4 days a week and once homework is out of the way, the TV is usually tunned to cartoons and other children’s programs. Sometimes, when I turn the TV on the next day it is left tuned to the kid’s channel and I find myself listening to the familiar cartoon voices, as if the kids are still there in the livingroom while I putter in the kitchen or do laundry, etc. My favourites; those I’ll sometimes stop what I’m doing and watch with the kids: - Fairly Odd Parents (Good times, Gooood Times…) - Kim Possible (So not the drama!) - Kids Next Door - Dexter’s Laboratory (DeeDee you silly gurl. Dis is sciiii-ence. And sciiii-ence is not preeetty!) You? ---

Fairly Oddparents. Except I seem to catch the same few episodes over and over. Dexter’s Lab was a favorite, when it was being upkept with new episodes. Totally Spies… eh. Looks like a ripoff of Chynna Clugston’s Major’s Blue Monday, with the art style and some character names. Teen Titans - I like it when I catch it. Justice League Unlimited is my favorite current toon not targetted specifically towards adults. ---

If you expand current to include repeats that still air, I’m going to have to go with _Invader ZIM_. I love the little tacos. I love them good. -GIR ---

Teen Titans. Invader Zim too, if that still counts. ---

Dave the Barbarian, you just have to love " The Dark Lord Chuckles, the Silly Piggy." Teen Titans. Justice League Unlimited. ---

Justice League Unlimited. As an old Justice League reader, it’s great just seeing the cast. And the writing isn’t bad either. ---

_Backyardigans_ has been growing on both me and the little guy – it may be the current favourite chez Rube E. ---

Another vote here for “Dave the Barbarian”. Not only does it feature Chuckles the Silly Piggy, Princess Candy rides a flying pony with a rainbow-striped mane and tail that does a scary good Christopher Walken impression. Also, I like the unusual (for cartoons) style they chose for the backgrounds. ---
