What are your opinions of TV for kids these days?
I think most of the kids' shows suck, to be honest.

Its all pretty much the same, but given that we're grown up we cant see things from the kid's point of view, and all the shows we grew up on still hold a special place for us, we still enjoy them for nostalgic reasons.
I think in some areas, it's actually improved. I really enjoy some of the new cartoons out today.
The quality varies a lot in my opinion. Some shows are ridicolous while some are good. I have a little sister, who is 9, and she watches Cartoon Network and Fox Kids all the time. Sometimes I find myself not understanding why she "wastes" her time watching these cartoons, but at the same time there are shows that I also really like, such as "SpongeBob Squarepants" and "Dexter's Lab." ect.
The kiddy TV programmes I hate are the ones for little children.. like The Tweenies and stuff like that. When you compare ones like that to some of the old ones like The Wombles or The Clangers... they suck.
ALL I KNOW IS THERE IS NOTHING THAT COMES CLOSE THE OVERALL COOLNESS OF TRANSFORMERS.
Your sig is too hilarious and witty, thus i have removed it to protect the minds of all forum goers

Spongebob Squarepants is seriously one of the greatest kid shows. The hardest I've ever laughed would probably be while watching an episode. Last night I was nearly crying laughing, because they had the Spongebob episode where Spongebob thinks he's ugly, but he just had bad breath, and people were spazzing out about the smell.
Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, Teen Titans and a lot of other ones rock too. I'll probably edit this post and add some more to the list.
The filth they show to little kiddies these days is terrible. Bob the Builder my arse. What the hell was wrong with Postman Pat and Fireman Sam? And why do they feel the need to change stuff? The new theme song for Thomas the Tank engine is evil incarnate.
They re-did Thomas the Tank Engine's theme song!? That is one show that should just stay as is, it was awesome. :/Originally Posted by Kyono

The TV shows for older kids isn't so bad, it's just the ones for little kids. Like BOB THE DAMN BUILDER. And yes, Fireman Sam was one of the best kid's shows ever. He was so cool.
Spongebob Squarepants rules And Foster's can be amusing sometimes, but the greatest Cartoon Network programme is, without a doubt, The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy. I laugh so hard I almost wet myself at that.
The Tweenies needs to be taken off the air.
I agree, Billy and Mandy own. That was the show I forgot to add to my list. I like the show with Hector Con Carne too, the brain.Originally Posted by Spiffing Cheese
Two of the best older cartoons, by far, were Animaniacs and Pinky and the Brain.
pure genius, imo
Pinky and the Brain is hilarious xD
But seriously, I was looking after my mother's friend's daughter, and she was watching Balamory... by the time it had finished, I was seriously considering shooting myself.
And then there's that Dora the Explorer one. Me and my friends have a grudge against that programme... it outsmarted us.
Even though kid shows definitely will never be able to compare with kids shows from the 90s, there are still some pretty good shows. Like Spongebob, even though some stupid little girl almost ruined it for us. Foster's home is all right and so is Teen Titans. My favorite American cartoon is actually Justice League: Unlimited.

They should put Ren and Stimpy back on Nickelodeon. That was completely badass.
