Favorite childhood cartoons....
What cartoons did you love when you were a kid??
shareLooney Tunes
TMNT
Animaniacs (a bit older when it was on but loved it)
Animaniacs
^ It's fun learning all the adult humor, inside jokes and jabs aimed at some of the characters and events when watching it as an adult. Adds an extra layer to an already nostalgic blast.
Did you ever see the Prince "joke" that's probably the dirtiest hidden adult joke in a cartoon? Look up Prince fingerprints and you should see it.
shareNeed to watch it again. The first time I understood it, I was like, Whoa, did Warner Bros. really go there? I understand they were involved in an ongoing legal feud over Prince's music. The show could pull punches, that's for sure.
shareThey're playing detectives, looking for prints. Dot comes out holding Prince, saying she found him. Yakko says "No.... fingerprints (finger Prince)" and Prince looks at her excitedly but she says she doesn't think so, and tosses him out of frame.
shareHA!
Talk about being left out in the Purple Rain! (^ ^)
Here's my brief list:
TMNT (1987 and 2003 series)
Teen Titans (2000s series, surprisingly dark)
Batman Beyond
The Animaniacs
Yu-Gi-Oh!
X-Men (saw it recently, holds up well)
The Simpsons
Pokémon (up to the Advance series)
Woody Woodpecker (personal favorite)
Fortunate to have relatives introduce me to Looney Tunes, Rocky and Bullwinkle, classic Scooby-Doo, The Flintstones.
Woody was a great one, forgot about him.
shareThe Jetsons
Superfriends
Tom & Jerry
My absolute favorite was Dragon Ball Z. I was obsessed with it. I liked a lot of the Cartoon Network shows that aired in the late 90s/early 00s, as well as several of the classic cartoons like the Flintstones and Scooby Doo. But nothing approached Dragon Ball Z. DBZ was my life back then.
