Let's go back in time...What were your favorite cartoons to watch as a child?

**popcornbird** · 07-11-2005, 03:22 PM

My brother and I were just talking about all the cartoons we used to watch as children, and it brought back so many wonderful memories of us sitting on the floor together, watching after school. I remember arguing with my brother whenever I wanted to watch "My Little Pony", whenever he wanted to watch something else. Its amazing how 'clear' these memories are, and it feels like it was only yesterday.

Back when you were young children, what were your favorite cartoons to watch? My VERY favorites were, 'Chip and Dale: Rescue Rangers," "Alvin and the Chipmunks," "Ducktales," "Darkwing Duck," "The Smurfs," "Gummy Bears," "Magic School Bus," "TaleSpin (dont remember the spelling)" AND.....though it wasn't a cartoon, I *loved* Reading Rainbow when I was really young. I also loved Tom & Jerry, and BugsBunny...he he he.

Did this list bring back any memories for the other late 80s/90s kids here? Go back in time, remember your childhood, and post your old cartoon favorites.

You're not going to believe this, but our parents did not let us watch much television at all. We never got to watch cartoons unless we were at a friend's house. I think I remember the Jetson's being a favorite, but I don't think I got to see it very often.

**jenluckenbach** · 07-11-2005, 04:26 PM

loved the Pink Panther, Underdog, Bugs Bunny, the Roadrunner, Yogi bear, Pepe le Pew, oh, I am sure there were many others, but these are the ones that pop to mind.

**moosmom** · 07-11-2005, 04:28 PM

Mighty Mouse
Rocky & Bullwinkle
Tom & Jerry

**K9soul** · 07-11-2005, 05:38 PM

I enjoyed a lot of the ones that have been listed. When I was really little, Popeye was my very favorite I think. I never cared a lot for Loony Tunes like Roadrunner because I didn't like shows where the animals were always fighting

. The Tom and Jerry shows I liked best were when the cat and mouse were friends or working together. Woody Woodpecker was another one I watched a lot.

Oh my gosh! How could I forget Popeye? I just LOVED Popeye!!! My dad didn't really like it when we watched cartoons, but even HE loved Popeye. LOL! I never liked the Jetsons though. I thought it was the most boring cartoon on TV.

LOL.....does this bring back any memories?

Popcornbird, since my childood was in the stone age (LOL), I always enjoyed the Flintstones, WWyl E. Coyote, and the very old black and white Popeye cartoons.
