...We only got to watch cartoons once a week and they didn't suck.

I miss Looney Toons. "The Rabbit of Seville" is the greatest cartoon ever made.

So, in honor of Cartoon Nostalgia Day, what cartoons do you miss? :)

I miss the smurfs, along with the Hanna barbara (sp) cartoons like the Jetsons Yogi Bear, etc. Sure, they are still seen in commercials, or even on CN website, but when are they ever aired?

Never, and that is saddening

The Mario cartoons, the GOOD Sonic cartoons, not the stupid future ones with a squirrel and not the Sonic X ones, the old old ones with Grounder and stuff like that. Also, Thundercats. And this cartoon I saw a few times when I was really young that I can't remember the title of and no one else knows. Donald Duck was also awesome.

100% spot on, the old cartoons were the best. I wasnt a huge fan of Looney Toons.

So many, both good and bad. I was actually having this conversation with my friends last week. :p

-Ninja Turtles
-SWAT Kats
-Street Sharks
-Spider-man, X-men, Iron Man, Fantastic Four

I was deprived as a kid and didn't have many channels, so I missed out on a lot of the great Disney cartoons. :(

Oh god, I love Looney Toons. Bug Bunny was my absolute hero. I wish they'd play more of the Pink Panther cartoons -- I miss some of the good Scooby Doo cartoons, too. The ones these days are all...crappy. Shaggy sounds daft. :/ I love Tom and Jerry but luckily they still play that sometimes ^_^ and and I love the old Mickey Mouse and Friends cartoons -- really old Mickey stuff, like "Steamboat Willie" etc. Those were brilliant.

Transformers and Tiny Toons. Especially baby Plucky playing minigolf. "Look daddy, it's blimp!"

I have 24 or so episodes of Tiny Toons on my computer right now, actually. Probalby more like 30 or 40 by now... I'm trying to find that pre-mentioned minigolf thing. Baby Plucky is so cute!

EDIT: I probably miss 50% of the cartoons I used to watch, but those two are the main ones of recent times. The X-Men cartoons were also completely awesome.

Speed racer. Voltron. SWAT Kats. Johnny Bravo.

I used to love Tom & Jerry too. Oh man, I loved cartoons when I was younger.

And there were these cartoons in Poland at 7 pm (or 19:00) that I would always watch when I visited. Those were good. And there would be animes on sometimes too (Like sailor moon) that my grandparents would tape for me.

Cartoons = good times. :love:

I was reminiscing about the Get Along Gang lastnight to kishi, but I don't really miss it so much.

I just miss there being nice cartoons are have art that doesn't look like every other one, or crazy mecha robots everywhere. I mean, mecha is nice in anime, but little girls aren't really interested in them usually!

If you're talking 'bout AMERICAN cartoons then I do agree, but cartoons in general have become WAY better when you talk 'bout anime and its total domination in the cartoon world.

There are SOME good cartoons left, Billy and Mandy are pretty cool, but yeah a lot of new cartoons have the same artistical style, every Marvel and DC cartoon look the same, it's so sad.

Transformers (Was my obsession for MANY years)
He-Man (By the power of Grayskull!)
Power Rangers (Oh god I loved this, until it was canceled due to teaching kids to beat each other up)
TMNT, the original series
Beast Wars (not as good as the original Transformers, but I loved it nonetheless)
Swat Kats (I loved it, too bad it was reruns all the time)

These are the ones I most fondly remember, there were many many others I loved, but those are the best ones

Yeah, it became a spinoff show after Animaniacs ended (or right near the end). The spinoff itself ran three or four years before it ended. Then, Hysteria took over as the "Animaniacs replacement," which ran four or five years.

06-08-2006, 05:27 PM
All of you except Azar, BoB, and Del suck. :mad2:

Spider-Man and X-Men were the best old cartoons. There are other old cartoons I sort of miss, but those two far more than the others. I'd watch them again if they were on TV. :(
