Doug
Rugrats

Disney did good too...once upon a not so distant past
Duck Tales
Tale Spin
Rescue Rangers
never liked Darkwing Duck or Goof Troop
Gummy Bears
Wonderful World of Disney-classic Disney cartoons and not excerpts
ETA: Phineas and Ferb is probably one of their only good modern franchises. Love that show

I never really watched Cartoon Network or Nick, and the only thing I liked on Disney was Ducktales and Rescue Rangers.
My childhood cartoons were GI Joe, Transformers, He-Man, MASK and Pee Wee's Playhouse.
Oh yeah, and Captain N the Game Master. :wacko:
Those are good shows but more in the 80's era, don't forget Super Mario Bros Super Show, Super Mario Bros 3, Super Mario World, Legend of Zelda and the Mega Man cartoon.Quote:

Totally forgot to mention the Super Show and Zelda. I remember watching SMSS after school Mon-Thurs and then Zelda would take its place on Fridays. Funny thing about SMSS is I always hated the Live Action segments, but nowadays I actually love the Live Action part and pretty much ignore the cartoon. It was a who's who of 80's celebrities on there :wacko:Quote:

The Mario shows were good, but you're wearing serious nostalgia goggles if you're going to compare Legend of Zelda and Mega Man -- both of which were just awful cartoons -- with anything from the heydey of the late-80s and early-90s. They don't even stand in comparison with the Disney cartoons of the time (Duck Tales, Talespin, Rescue Rangers, Darkwing Duck, Goof Troop, etc, etc), or even the other cartoons from the era that I have no idea what channel they aired on, like TMNT or Transformers. If you go back and watch Zelda now, it's just horrible, and Mega Man only has a couple of redeeming episodes strewn through the 50ish that were released.Quote:

Everyone manages to bail out of a plane at the last second, and in the midst of massive fire fights no one ever really gets hit, and if they do they just drop their gun and run off the battlefield.Quote:

I've never seen the Mega Man cartoon, I didn't even know there was one. I did catch a few episodes of Sonic the Hedgehog at the time, but that's about it.
Anyone remember the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon? :wacko:
Samurai Pizza Cats
Animaniacs
Sailor Moon
Thundercats
She-ra
