Top cat
pink panther
trapdoor (did you guys get that in the USA)?


But the old Tom and Jerry cartoons from the 1940's can't be beat with the richness of the colours and the detail - shame some of them are considerd racist these days. Those cartoons from the 1940's (not the later stuff from the 70's onward) won seven oscars - 7 oscars! beat that toy story


and a special mention for 'itchy and scratchy' as the best of the modern ones

Actually trapdoor should be classed as claymation (like wallace and grommit)

Here is the intro

Default Re: What were you're favorite morning cartoons as a kid?

I enjoyed a few cartoons, Transformers was good, also The Gobots, Defenders of the Earth, and Battle of the Planets was superb!!
The first saturday morning cartoon I remember was something called Birdman, don't really remember much about it, apart from he seemed to fire lazers out of his fists!
Those were the days.

Was Gobots the one with the red scooter that transformed and the leader was a space shuttle? I really enjoyed Captain Planet. And I've found my new favorite morning channel. 'THIS' network - some nice older stuff, heathcliff first thing in the morning followed by Inspector Gadget and the Pink Panther. Interestingly enough, they're showing Solarbabies this Sunday. Terrible name, interesting concept.

P.S. thought I'd add, that I'm not alluding to some unspecified channel, rather it is in fact called "THIS" tv.

So many great cartoons in this thread...*nostalgic ooze*

Some of my favourites:

He-Man and the Masters of the Universe
Transformers
Astroboy (the new stuff, including the film is bollocks)
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
Vicky the Viking
Belle and Sebastian
Future Boy Conan (This is magical)
Scooby Doo (only the seasons where mysteries were solved...the earlier the better)
Teknoman (much later on...)

I often wonder if I'm an alienated minority who doesn't like much of the self-conscious sarcasm and general vulgarity of today's cartoons...they just don't do it for me anymore. There's often nothing wholesome about them at all.

On KET/PBS did anyone ever watch Electric Company or 3.2.1 Contact? (A science show) Is SOOOO cheesy to see on YouTube now though.

On Electric Company, I always looked forward to the Spider man bit.... heheheh

If it had little, very basic and obvious experiments for the viewers to "do at home" then I vaguely remember hating it. Most likely it had my attention for a few mins until Spiderman was on.

BTW! Thundarr the Barbarian is on official DVD now! Every single Episode (22 I think in total) on Amazon!!

Also, Time Life Video has all 200+ "Real Ghostbuster episodes" but they want an insane amount of money for them.. like $129 or something.. To rich for my blood!

It's nice that they are releasing these.

I *DO* own the Dungeons & Dragons cartoon series. It even came in a neat DVD boxset... Sucks that the series was short, and never got closure. Back then, Religious groups were sending letters into ABC saying how D&D was 'satanic' and stuff..
Ah well... The Cellwork was really nice in it.
