Vanessa Warfield & Gloria Baker were genuine cartoon hotties.

Your Obedient Serpent in - a Bob Clampett cart-oooo-oooon!
I’m young enough to be wishing for DVDs of Animaniacs, Batman: TAS, the early-90s X-Men and Spider-Man, and probably some others. I’d love a complete collection of Animaniacs if only to see their full-episode parody of Apocalypse Now, now that I’m finally old enough to have seen it.
Oh boy! Bringing back memories! Here are some of the ones I remember:
She-Ra and He-Man,Gem (loved it!!),Inspector Gadget,Speed Racer
Astroboy, all Looney Tunes,all Hanna Barbera
Scooby Doo, Thundercats, Smurfs, Ulysses, Captain Caveman
Mr Magoo, Fat Albert, Dangermouse, Hong Kong Fooey, BananaMan
Alvin & The Chipmunks, Batfink, Gummi Bears, Ewoks, SuperTed
Battle of the Planets, The Moomins, Strawberry Shortcake
Sounds like I watched a lot of cartoons. And those are only the ones I remember right now!
Weren’t Beany and Cecil puppets?
I like the classics such as Bugs Bunny, Foghorn Leghorn, Porky Pig etc…so Warner Brothers are my favorite. The kids of today are being denied these well made cartoons which were written with a 2nd level of humor to be enjoyed equally by adults .
Hong Kong Fooey
Wild and whacky Races
Bullwinkle
Jetsons/Flintstones
Jabber Jaw
Hair Bares (and for you young’ns, that’s NOT a typo )
*Tiajuana Toads
I liked Fractured Fairy Tales, but I didn’t truely appreciate the genius in this cartoon untill I became an adult. At 34 I still get a kick out of this cartoon. Although I haven’t seen one in quite some time.
D’OH!
Uh, Make that Hair Bears…
:smack:
Rocket Robin Hood (great theme song)
Superfriends
public televison stuff that was educational, probably not very widespread and maybe only on TV Ontario, but ReadAlong and The Green Forest
Oh yeah! The Green Forest is also a good childhood memory. When my family moved to Ottawa, the TV rule for two years was PBS or TVO. Probably the reason that almost all I watch now is Discovery Canada, TLC or CNN.
BTW, noname, thanks for the link, and validating my memory
if you’re from Canada, you’ll probably like this link. Great nostalgic look at all those old cartoons we grew up with in Ontario.
Hey, me too! (Or so it seems) I loved Captain Planet (and the theme song!), and I was a big X-Man fan too. I used to watch ashow about two cavemen that was somehow tie in to Eek - two cavemen, one short and fat, the other tall and thin. The tall one used to say ‘when will the hurting stop’ - can someone IDthis?
I have very dim memories of a cartoon about bears that could fly - they had large butterfly wings, I think, and they lived in a mountain surrounded by a forest. No one I’ve spoken to can remember this - I’m sure it’s real.
I watched Defenders of the Universe every week (where I learned that doing drugs was Wrong and Would Affect Your Schoolwork), and the similar-yet-superior Galaxy Rangers (another awesome theme song.)
I spent most of my childhood weekend mornings watching TV with my brothers and a box of Coco Puffs, wrapped in our duvets. Good times.
Actual quality was pretty unimportant to me back in the late 60s. I actually preferred crap like Bat-Fink and The Herculoids to Warner Brothers and Mighty Mouse.
Tom and Jerry. The1940s Fred Quimby produced ones not the later travesties.
Since I don’t watch kids’ TV these days I don’t know what they’ve done to the old WB cartoons, have they been censored/cut to bits? I read that they cut scenes of Mammy Two Shoes out of Tom and Jerry, is this so? No more “Thomas! Catch that mouse!”
Muppet Babies
Fragglerock
Dungeons and Dragons (I think that’s what it was called. Its the one where the group of kids go on a rollercoaster and end up in a D+D fantasy world.)
Transformers
Thundercats
He-man
For me it was mostly Looney Tunes on Saturday mornings. I’d get up at 7:00 and watch for an hour and a half. I also liked watching the Jetsons. During the week after school my friends and I watched He-Man, Scooby Doo, the Flintstones and several of the other Hanna-Barbera characters (Huckleberry Hound, Yogi Bear, etc.). Transformers came on in the mornings before school.
Oh, I remembered, Captain Caveman too.
All the Warner Bros. cartoons
Rocky and Bullwinkle
Huckleberry Hound et al.(remember the giant spud?)
Pixie and Dixie and Mr. Jinks
Herculoids
Johnny Quest( I remember being young enough to be scared by that electricity monster!)
For live action I remember Roy Rogers, and Sky King.
Right at the end of my cartoon watching days(67-68) there was one I liked but can’t remember the name of. There were two kids, brother and sister, and they had two halves of a magic ring, that when put together summoned a genie. There was also a flying camel the rode on. Help me out here?
