What cartoons did you watch as a kid? - Page 2

*Zulithe* · 02-19-2022, 02:00 PM

I don't think I can list everything even if I tried. If it was a cartoon that aired during the 80s or 90s, I watched it. Including older stuff from the 60s and 70s, which was getting healthy amounts of reruns.

Lots of Disney, lots of WB, lots of Fox Kids, Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network. Action stuff rose to the top of the heap for me, so stuff like turtles, he-man, x-men, batman were what I looked forward to the most.

Funny enough, while I liked Spider-Man and watched a lot of the various shows featuring him, I was not a really big fan of him. I was more into Batman and X-Men. And of course, in those days, while I knew who Captain America, Iron Man, etc. were, most kids didn't care much about them at that time.

Most of the cartoons listed above got a watch from me. Reboot, Beast Wars, Rocko's Modern Life, M.M.P.R., Sonic SatAM, and Gargoyles were also my favorites. Pokemon, Sailor Moon, and Dragon Ball Z showed up later on.

I do find it a bit amusing that even though we had cable and eventually satellite service, the local stations were the bigger powerhouses at the time.

I selected everything on this list because on a very technical level, I watched these as a kid. Some of the shows like TMNT, BTAS, He-Man, and Ghostbusters I had to be stealthy about because I wasn't 'allowed' to see them by my parents. So I would only see parts of them, though I loved them very much. Stuff like Darkwing Duck and Rescue Rangers was deemed as 'safe' by my parents, so I watched those in their entirety as a kid with no issues.

When I got older, and had my own TV, I got to watch all of these, and then some. I've even re-watched a lot of these as an adult. For instance, I re-watched/watched all of GI Joe as an adult on The Hub when it was a channel.

NeonTurtledude · 07-20-2022, 09:02 AM

I watched a lot of TMNT as a kid, I grew up with the 2003 series and then watched the 2012 and fred wolf shows after that, I'd often catch the 2003 series on citv after school.

I did watch the Real Ghostbusters,Ducktales and Animaniacs, but I wasn't around in the 80s/90s, I watched these shows online because I was interested in old cartoons at the time, with Jem being one that I watched a lot.

as for shows not on that list, there's a lot

Jem and the holograms
She-ra Princess of Power
Looney Tunes
Tom and Jerry
Flinstones
House of Mouse
Lilo and Stitch the series
Rugrats
Spongebob
The Simpsons
My Little Pony (the 80s series/tales and friendship is magic)
Strawberry Shortcake
90s Sailor Moon
Pokemon
Postman Pat
Fireman Sam
Angelina Ballerina
Funny bones
Noddy
Scooby Doo
X-men (1992)
Jimmy Neutron
Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog
Sonic Underground
Sonic X
Winx Club
Totally Spies
the Mario cartoons (from Saturday supercade to super show,adventures of Mario bros 3 and super Mario world)
The Legend of Zelda cartoon
Rupert
Recess
Little Bear
Arthur
Tweenies
Thomas the tank engine
The Magic Key
Kim Possible
Hilltop Hospital
Yu Gi Oh

I'm from the UK and didn't have cable so if I did catch any nick/Disney or cartoon network shows it would've been when visiting relatives who had the sky tv service, I didn't experience Toonami, but citv had a block called action stations that was similar, it was through that I found anime via pokemon, action stations was just part of the citv breakfast time slot but the shows aired at that time were usually action shows or anime.

I think the appropriate question is: What cartoons didn’t I watch as a kid?

I even watched the ones I wasn’t supposed to on Adult Swim late at night.
