when you were younger.
i liked postman pat, but there are so many to choose
I liked Super Book, and Flying House, (two Christian-based cartoons that used to come out). For other cartoons, I liked Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (the older version), Gummy Bears, the Mario Brothers cartoons (all levels as I think they based the cartoons on the games), the Link and Zelda, and Captain N cartoons, Smurfs, ScoobyDo, and Captain Planet. On the Nickelodeon channel I liked Grimm's Fairytail Cllassics, David the Gnome, Eureka's Castle, Adventures of the Little Coala, and Doug. I know a lot of other shows I used to like and would like to see again, but those I mentioned would be some of my favorites that I can remember right now.
I liked the raggy dolls, Button Moon and play bus or play school as I think they changed the name.
i remember play school
"here's a house, here's a dorr
how many windows, 1, 2, 3, 4"
Bagpuss, The Flumps, Jackanory & Blue Peter.
Playschool & You and Me.
onh, i still like blue peter.
very educational
Teenaged mutin ninga Turtles, Super Mario brothers, Sesami Street, and Mr. Rogers.
Troy
Gilligan's Island, the many reruns. The Wonder Years. Inspector Gadget.
Sesame Street (still watch it now and then), Mr. Rogers, Barney (yes there was a time I actually watched that) and pretty much everything on PBS.
um, I confess, I confess, I watched sessame street until i was 15 years old. Then there were the flintstones, and the Jetsons, lol.
wonderwoman
Oh yeah. I liked the Jetsons and I also liked Inspector Gadget. *smiling* Some other shows I can think of: Fragle Rock, Rocky and Bullwinkle, Garfield and Friends, Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers, Duck Tales, Anamaniacs, Ghostwriter, Reading Rainbow, (although I guess those two are not cartoons but still they were children's shows), Heathcliff, and, *thinks*, ... that's really all I can think of for now. *smile*
Hey all,
I use to like to watch Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood and Sesame Street.
fragel rock! oh! the memories! Does anytone remember thunder cats?
sesame street, garfield (of course), the magic school bus, and PB and J otter
Yu-Gi-Oh! Series
Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Series
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Series
Pokemon Series
Kirby, Right Back at Ya!
Transformers Cybertron
Viewtiful Joe (That used to come on Kids WB)
The Batman
Megaman NT Warrior
There's plenty of more but that's all I'll put here for now.
When I was a kid, like 5? I don't know I guess barney and mr. rogers, rugrats, inspector gadgit, flinstones, jetsons that kind of stuff. When I got a bit older like 8 or something I loved watching full house, saved by the bell, california dreams, family matters, and mama's family.
oo. *claps hands. I liked pokemon, rugrats, and definetly mama's family.
I used to watch most of the PBS shows. I confess, I still watch Arthur from time to time!
When I was about 4, I loved Play School, and then when I was about 10 - 12, it was Captain Planet, that was an awesome show!
barney, Lamb Chops, mr. Rogers, reading in rainbow trains, and shiningtime station. For some reason I watched a lot of shows about trains.
Rocko's Modern Life, Rugrats, and some other show whose name I can't remember.
Awww, I loved Fraggle Rock. I had me some Fraggle Rock toys back in the day. Lol.
For others: Ureka's Castle, Rugrats, David the Gnome, Franklin, Little Bear, Ninja Turtles ... um ... I'm blanking. I never was much for Sesame Street, except I love Elmo, and yes, I loved Barney. All the fun little songs, y'know. And I think I used to watch a show called Gulla Gulla Island on occasion.
When I got a bit older: Doug, Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Ah! Real Monsters, et cetera.
Blues Clues and Dora the Explorer and the like have always irritated me terribly.
Ooohhh, and I forgot. I, too, used to love Mama's Family. And Reading Rainbow and Wishbone. Never was a Garfield person.
Wow, it's funny hearing the names of some of the shows I'd forgotten about. My absolute favorite 80's cartoon was She-Rah, Princess of Power. I also liked a show called Gem and the Holograms, Rainbow Bright, and Smyrphs. On PBS I loved Reading Rainbow, a show called Secret City, Magic Schoolbus, and Wishbone! I loved the Nicklelodian shows like Today's Special, David the Gnome, the Koalas, and Pinwheel. I liked Mr. Rogers, but was never a big Sesame Street fan, even as a kid. Not sure why.
My very favorite show was this bizarro show on the disney channel called Under the Umbrella Tree. It wasn't animated, it was all done with puppets... As I recall, it was amazing, but I think I was five the last time I saw it, soooo...:)
As for other favorites, The Adventures of the Little Koala, Gummi Bears, Care Bears, Welcome to Pooh Corner, eureka's Castle, pretty much everything on PBS except Barney (loved Lambchop and Sesame Street and Mr. Rogers especially).
The best childrens, show of all blimming time when I was little, was of course, SootyI was and always will be, a huge Sooty fan. For those of you who aren't familiar with Sotty, Sweep, Soo and Matthew Corbett, they are a little yellow bear, a dog and a panda, who all live in a normal, family house with Matthew Corbett, who along with Soo the panda, does most of the narating and talking on all the programs. Sweep "talks" as well but sometimes you can't work out what he's saying, because rather than talking, he sort of squeaks, but he squeaks in the same way we would actually say something and express what we're saying, so you could tell whether he was asking a question or he was disappointed, sad, happy or over-excited. It always had me in stitches and rolling around on the carpet in front of the TV when he was around. Since I grew out of Sotty though, they've been joined by Sweep's little friend, I think his name's Scamp, well something like that anyway. Sooty lip-reads rather than speaks so it was quite hard to know what he was saying unless Matthew, Soo or Sweep answered or replied in return. I was always to be found in the audience as well when the Soty show was live on stage at any theatre, anywhere in the country. In fact, for my eith Birthday, mum fixed it so I could actually go backstage and met the man himself, Matthew Corbett and Sooty, who I had to bang on his box and wake him up so he'd pop out and say hellow to me and the two friends who'd come to see Sooty with me, mumn and her partner. I was even able to feel what he looked like how small he was and I was quite surprised that he was almost exactly as i imagined him, same size, feel, almost small enough to fit in your pocket, everything. Finally, I had actually met the man with that lovely, calming voice who read me my bedtime stories on my Fisher Price cassette player at night, kept me happy in front of the telly during the day and gave everyone free magic wands, badges, balloons, rosettes and tiaras whenever we went to see a Sooty show performed live. Best childrens, show ever, no doubt about that.
I HATE Blues Clues and Dora the Explorer. Loved The Magic School Bus and Ah, Real Monsters.
I can also remember watching Renn, (however the hell you spell his name), and Stimpy.
ah man, there are lots of the shows I can remember, lam chops, PBnJ otter, the magic school bus, barney(yes I watched that), rug rats, Dug(not the disney one, the one that was on nick), little bear, and arthor. I do remember ren and stimpy, but I didn't watch it alot. and rocco's mottern life all the way!!!
The Electric Company!
You can actually find some of the songs from it on YouTube. Clever stuff, some of it.
I was not a kid who was very much into kid shows; I was always an old bore. Hated cartoons and such silliness.
This is fascinating to see the different generations and different countries offerings in this television genre. As much as children love the Flintstones, they were orriginally a prime-time adult program. Having said that, I must confess to owning several Flintstone DVD's. I'm also amazed at how much adult humor is found in Rocky and Bolwinkle, or however he spells his name.
Lou
many cartoons, especially in the eighties, had two levels, the adult and the child level. I liked thundercats, technology and a big helping of loyalty.
I also loved the old scooby doo shows, the new ones out now aren't the same
wow, what was my favourite? There were loads. Mr Ben, the riddlers, Green claws, the nessies, All sorts, puddle lain..... I could go on and on with this one, lol
Rocco's modern life! Oh, my god, do I remember that show. lol
my favorite shows were, Rugrats, Doug, Mr, Rogers, The magic School Bus, Arthur, Wishbone, Reading Rainbow. and... i think that's about it.
oh, adn i also did love watching Sesima street
man, these all bring back good times...lol
hmmm let's see here. MR. Rogers. Rockos modern life. lamb chopps. (and I still like that show.) Rin and stimpy, My brother and I used to watch that one together. and hmmmmmmm... I can't think of anymore right now.
I would have to agree with with yvonne. the magic school bus and arthur wer my all-time favorites.
Since watching cartoons more again these days, there are some other shows I like. apparently, I did watch most of these shows when I was little too, but I don't remember them (I mean that I watched them). Some shows I've been watching lately that are now favorites (among some of the others I mentioned in an earlier post here), are "Wacky Races", "Batfink", "Josie and The Pussycats", "The Banana Splits", "Cattanooga Cats", and "Top Cat".
I remember romp-per-room, captain kangaroo and I liked skooby do and of course the startrek cartoon.
Yea, someone who remembers Captain Kangaroo--whenever I mention him, people look at me like I've come from another planet--remember the pingpong balls from that one.
When older, Happy days, LaVern and Shirley, Welcome Back Cotter.
Oh my, do you remember those shows called Emergency and Adam 12? I guess those were the forerunners to my current enjoyment of Law and Order and CSI.
A lifelong fan of Winnie the Pooh (not so much the new ones though) and...don't laugh...I still watch Little House on the Prairie re-runs...I even just finished renting them straight through all 10 seasons from NetFlix...isn't that pathetic? LOL.
I liked Thomas The tank, Engine, Postman Pat and my nan and grandad used to have videos of the Wombles and Sessemy Street.
When I was yunger, I watched Barney and a show on PBS called Kids Songs. When I got older, I watched Hey Arnold, Doug on Nick, Rugrats, Flintstones, the Jetsons, and some of the shows that used to be on Nick at Night, such as The Facts of Life, the Brady Bunch, Gilligan's Island, and the Beverly Hill Billies. I also used to watch Scooby Doo. I agree with AZN_guy. The old ones r way better than the old ones.

What!! No Bugs Bunny fans? I used to watch that show On Saturday mornings. I especially loved Sylvester and Tweety. I also loved the Pink puma character. also loved the Smirfs, Ghostbusters and does anyone remember the show Funhouse? I also watched diffRent Strokes and BeWitched reruns. For sitcoms in my younger years I liked the Wonder Years, Full House, Perfect strangers, Family Matters, Just the ten of us and I used to watch the old version of People's court with Judge Wapner quite often too. There are lots of other shows I watched then that I still like now.
oh yeah and i liked a show called bobby's world.
