I thought it would be fun to gather up as many animated intros from old cartoon shows we all enjoyed from when we where kids and experience the nostalgia!

Prince Valiant. This intro never fails to stir up memeroys and, I loved this series and I love hoe in the intr they treat as if it whjere a live action series by putting the names of the actors in front of each character shown. What beatiful animation!

King Arthur and the Knights of Justice! I thought this show was cool and I have no idea if it had an ending, and the concept of a modern day football team as Knights is cool. Football is actually quit an gladiators game so it made sense that they could be such good knights. I loved that medival intro in the theme before it turned into that modern day guitar riff.

I just remember this from saturday mornings! And I liked the whole country music theme!

I used to LOVE Wild Cats! One of my favorite action toon series from back in the day. This was apart of my sunday morning cartoon line up on the USA channel as a kid. Voodoo was my favorite character.

Skeleton Warriors! Can't go wrong with a talking golden skull narrating each episode with a poignant monologue, voiced by TONY JAY! God this was such an under rated show!

Conan the Adventurer! Another obscure cartoon, so much violence, I loved it. I loved Conan and his quest to defeat Set. Set and the Serpent men scared the shiznit outta me as a kid!

Pirates of Dark Water. No one I talk to remembers this series, I I loved it!
All these shows had alot of good animation and even mature content that wasn't really dumbed down despite it being aimed at kids and had really cool storylines.

Cadillacs and Dinosaurs. (it's the first theme, but is quickly followed by a whole bunch more. Including...COUNT DUCKULA!)

Kidd Video (And yes, that is Robbie Rist in the glasses)
Couldn't find an intro/theme/OP, so have an AMV instead. Lookie! It's Jim Cummings - The Animated Series! :D

This next one was way better as a cartoon.

The following isn't too cool of an intro, but the show won me back as a fan after the horribly lame movie (animes aside).

Never even heard of this one before about a week ago. Me likey. That's an awesome concept.

It really is too bad they wrapped up the whole series in just one 13-ep season. :( That was disappointing. It was a great show.

It was on Cartoon Network for years when Toonami was a baby. Were these people stricken blind before then? I can't imagine how else they could have not seen it.

Denver the last Dinosaur! I can't believe no ones posted this one yet!!!

Punky Brewster Cartoon! I loved this even more than the live action series.

Alf the Cartoon! This was great! I loved the live action series and this was just more than a toddler could take when it was animated!
now...I'm ashamed to say that I watched these when I was a kid because it reeked of 80's fad, mostly I was dragged into watching these with my older sister becaus she was in LOVE with these guys growing:

I loved this series. I loved it to death. I got to know this series through the USA Cartoon express and it was seriously one of the best cartoons. It was mature and the songs where cool. Classic 80's cartoon, that made a 90's child like me adore it.

Maxie's World and Beverly Hills Teens! These two shows would run in conjunction with each other in an hour block if I recall. I don't know too many people who know about thesetwo series, but I vaguely remember it from my childhood. I also remember my older sister naming one of her barbies Maxine in honor of Maxie. And when we would play Barbies together, we always named to mean girl after Bianca. That was like...the staple name for bad bitchy girls in our playing. These was a true testiment to the 80's Califinia surf and rockstar culture back in the day!

Another cool find. Sorry it's not the opening. The closing theme sounds better.

I use to play this on the guitar & then tried harmonizing it with the Masterpiece Theatre theme. It goes great together like a round.

I know, I was going to do that because it's like the most obvious, but It has seemed as if Youtube removed the old TMNT intro. How did you find them?

I totally remember those ABC "Be right back" commercials. It's so funny the stuff that I don't remember until I see it again. Then it all comes back. Like I wouldn't remember that I remember those normally, if that makes sense.
My favorite show as an older child/ preteen.

I love how "messages" is a euphamism for "commercials" like its a sin or something!
