I am huge fan of Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse
It’s about even in my heart between Ren and Stimpy and Rocko’s Modern Life.
Batman The Animated Series, prolly
The GOAT.
It’s a tie between GI Joe and Spider-Man & his amazing friends.
Thundaar, the Barbarian. Absolutely wild sci-fi fantasy. Conan meets Adventure Time.
Close contenders are BTAS, Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends, He-Man, and TMNT.
wow. hits a lot of things I was thinking about. Its so hard to say because there is a big thing at different periods. I think if the transformers had come out earlier it might be the one but I was watching it when I was a bit to old to watch cartoons (which is still the case).
Darkwing Duck is probably the one I remember most fondly. It even had a Twin Peaks inspired episode, Twin Beaks, which I didn’t appreciate until I was older.
Voltron
if it’s yours too do yourself a favour and NEVER revisit it
Reminds me of Thundercats. I had so much nostalgia for it until I watched it again.
Ok so been thinking about it and it is so dependent on the time period but I think im going to go with an old one that was just so cool relative to what else was on and what came before. It was the us version of a japanese cartoon and the us version was called. Battle of the planets.
Not 100% cartoon, but I really liked Mr Bogus. It may have been called different things in different countries.
Bugs Bunny (Looney Toons) from childhood
(But became number 2 when Pinky and the Brain came out as an adult.)
In my case this would something from the '60s and '70s in the UK then - and I suppose that stop-motion in The Clangers or Bagpuss etc wouldn’t really count, so probably between the gentle, character-based storytelling of Ivor the Engine (and that is a cut-out animation - but I’d think still qualifies) and the surrealism, punning and energy of Roobarb (and Custard).
I’d probably go Roobard as well, though still have a soft spot for Mr. Benn.
None of the ones I can think of hold up all that well since I grew up in the 80s. It wasn’t until the 90s (with The Simpsons at the vanguard) that ones I would consider to be good for all ages started appearing. The Smurfs was my favorite as a kid.
Impossible to choose from the absolute bangers of the 80s and 90s.
Heathcliffe, Garfield and Friends, GI Joe, Transformers, Jem, Spider-Man, Tiny Toon Adventures, Tom n Jerry, etc.
Franklin. I’m, at least not in the presence of my family, willing to admit I absolutely love the fairly calm antics of that turtle and his friends and family.
There are lots of short animated czechoslovakian cartoons for one of the first programs dedicated for children. It is called Večerníček and there are loads of good cartoons.
I can’t pick one but I was bit surprised that some of them aired more worldwide. For example Pat & Mat it isn’t cartoon (stop motion) but I linked it because it is silent.
