My all time faves were the ones from the 40's that were narrated and almost always had a bouncing ball with as you sang along to the words on the screen!

The Ultimate cartoon for me was with Spike & Chester. I named Chester after the little dog in that cartoon:


Most recently I like:
Two Stupid Dogs
Stimpy
Family Guy
Sponge Bob Square Pants

Oh how could I forget the Flintstones!!

I couldn't watch cartoons as a kid, but loved reading comic
books. Everything from Superman to Donald Duck. As a older
kid I loved watching Rocky & Bullwinkle. There was a lot of
adult humor in them as well as the slapstick stuff. I'll never
forget Bullwinkle's "ennie meenee chili beenie, the spirits are about to speak"

[wolfsoul]

She-Ra (Princess of Power), Rainbow Brite, David the Gnome, My Little Pony, Little Lulu, Tailspin, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Samurai Pizza Cats, Popeye, Rocky and Bullwinkle, Jem, Starla and the Jewel Riders, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Care Bears, Teddy Ruxpin, The Little Flying Bears, etc...I mostly loved the Retro shows. Still do! Give me She-Ra any day.

I just went and read some other posts, I loved Spike and Chester!

Man, there are so many!

Oh, and, the really old ones with the singing, dancing frog.....and, the little kids that looked like cupie dolls (is that even how you spell that?!)! I love old cartoons!

ack, and, speedy gonzales!!!!

Felix the Cat....the wonderful wonderful cat!
I was just listening to classical music today - the Flight of the Vulcaries - and I giggled the whole time because I can just see Elmer Fudd and Bugs Bunny doing their cartoon-opera version!(Kill de Wabbit! Kill de Wabbit!)
I loved lots of caroons. Marvin Martian, Road Runner, Fractured Fairy Tales and Mr. Peabody's way-back machine, on Rocky & Bullwinkle show-(anybody remember Sherman? the little kid with the big glasses? My Sherman, with his poor eyesight, reminds me of him!)

How hysterical! I thought I might be the only person mentioning Mighty Mouse!!! I even had a Mighty Mouse Doll. I may even have it tucked away safely (my mother saved everything). Wonder what it's valued at today?
I still love Looney Toones (That's all Folks), Chip and Dale and there was one show, whose name I forget. about a little dog whose cage got lost in transit and he teamed up with other dogs to look for his owner, Tommy or Timmy. The "lost" dog was a spaniel. Anybody remember that? Was only on for one season I think, and I was a grown adult watching it! Even before I got Cody! I don't watch cartoons as much now, but I do watch Saturday Morning shows when I'm having coffee. (Lizzy Maguire, Trading Spaces Kids, Raven). Ok, so I'm not ashamed to say it. Still a kid at heart. I think it's relaxing and cute. Beats all the sad news on TV.

[smokey the elder]

Loony Toons (all the Warner Brothers characters), Rocky and Bullwinkle, and Jonny Quest were my faves.

I still LOVE the Animaniacs!

[micki76]

Does anyone else remember Tom of T.H.U.M.B.? His sidekick was Swingin' Jack? We had a cat named Swingin' Jack back then!

Ha ha ha! I just found this:

Tom was an average member of the U.S. Intelligence Maintenance Department. He was sweeping the floor when he fell down the stairs and whilst being helped by his faithful assistant Swingin' Jack, an oriental Martial Arts expert, accidentally turned on the shrinking laser beam ray gun and both were miniaturized. They gave their height to their Country, creating the Tiny Human Underground Military Bureau (T.H.U.M.B.)

Tom's office and home was a filing cabinet. The Chief used him when regular sized men were too big for a job.

The main enemy was MAD - Maladjusted Antisocial and Darn Mean, an organization of Scientists trying to destroy the world for their own means.
