Jackie Chan Adventures, first three seasons. I still crack up watching it.

I love every incarnation of the Ninja Turtles cartoons.

Phineas and Ferb is great fun. (And Avatar: the Last Airbender, which isn't really a cartoon, in the traditional sense. Man, I miss that show.)

Megas XLR was a fun one during its run, though that may be a partial bias of NJ having its own giant robot...

I used to kinda like Reboot, if that counts. And the Raccoons. Both Canadian.

Ahem. Thundercats, M.A.S.K, the Smurfs, the Snorks, He-Man

Reboot.
Pinky and the Brain.

And I'm also still fond of the Fudd and Buggs cartoons, and the one Buggs Bunny cartoon where he ends up in the castle with the Hairy Thing.

And Marvin the Martian.

Oh, and Tom and Jerry.

Cartoon Intro Part 1

I geekgasmed (nostalgiagasmed?) a few weeks back when I stumbled across the Cities of Gold intro.

The first bit was familiar but I couldn't place it. Then when the musical theme started it all came flooding back!

Beast Wars...

Yes.

Because any redeeming qualities of the show are overshadowed by the horrendous image a good part of the fanbase gives it. This also tends to make people a little embarrassed to say they like it!

It would take too long to list all my favorites, and Invader Zim wasn't at the top of my head before.

SNARF!

Watching Jackie Chan Adventures, you realized how much of a jerk the cartoon taught you to be. Always stealing things, with the promise of returning them, but never actually following through.

And Mummies Alive, where every vehicle flew.

Beast Wars...

Yes.


I somehow stumbled on all the episodes online in college and became obsessed all over again. Silverbolt for the win!

(His voice actor apparently went on to such illustrious roles as Hoenheim in the Fullmetal Alchemist movie and... Funshine Bear in Carebears: Adventures in Care-a-Lot. blink.gif Thanks IMDB.)

Luckily I quickly got over the obsession by watching the first episode of the awful Beast Machines. Just like being a kid again.

Jackie Chan Adventures, Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers, Rugrats, Doug, AH! Real Monsters!, Gumbi, Inspector Gadget, Gargoyles, Batman (Original and Batman Beyond ftw), Beast Wars, Transformers (the ones with the little mini-bots was awesomest), Street Sharks, Powerpuff Girls, Hey Arnold, Adventures of the Hidden Temple, Double Dare, Thundercats, He-Man, Animorphs, Are You Afraid Of The Dark, CatDog, Clarissa Explains It All, Figure It Out, Kenan and Kel, Rocket Power, Power Rangers, Yugio, The Wild Thornberrys, Bill Nye the Science Guy, Krat Brothers, Dragon Ball Z (guilty pleasure), Cowboy Bebop, Fullmetal Alchemist, Inuyasha, Astro Boy, Outlaw Star, Trigun, The Fairly Odd Parents, Drake and Josh, Invader Zim (according to Wikipedia, IT'S COMING BACK 7/11!!!!!!), Ace Ventura, As Told By Ginger, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Butt-Ugly Martians, Danny Phantom, Oh Yeah! Cartoons, Charlie Brown, and Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide.

Man... 75% of those were just from memory. Wikipedia sure brings back the memories!

Nickelodeon went down the toilet after the Spongebob movie, didn't it? And nothing on Cartoon Network is really noteworthy to mention either... I wish that they would bring back Toonami. There were some freakin' amazing shows on there!
