Favorite Childhood cartoon/tvshow

[Obyeybyeogone]

Yeah i'm downloading it also. I also downloaded some old Ninja Turtles episodes off Kazaa, that sure brought back some memories. I think the young children of today are being ripped off of quality cartoon programming, rather than having original cartoons you find a lot of "Spider-man EXTREME, powerrangers zeo in space and underwater, Pokemon, Digimon (obvious ripoff), Rescue heroes (this will probably get cancelled when the september 11th effect wears off), x-men kids (I don't remember what it's called but it's like the x-men as highschoolers.

I also watched the x-men cartoon on Fox every saturday, and I still like it, it's not on air anymore but it's still a very good show. The kids that grow up today, what will they remember watching? Ripoffs of formerly succesful shows? That's all that i'm seeing as cartoons today it's sad. Although there's some good cartoons on the cartoon network, like Dexter's Lab and stuff like that.

Yeah, G-force! They just got two videos of the show at a video store here. I wanted to rent them last night but someone beat me to it.

I'd forgotten I was really into Ducktales for a while too.

Did anyone here like the Mario cartoons? I remember watching that every sunday, I was a big fan of the game too, so it was one of my favorite cartoons.

~Zeanra~@ Oh,yes Nils Holgersson is a hotjump
:hotjump: :hotjump:

yeap,he was a boy who was punished by a hustomte because he was very naughty (if i can recall correctly)and became small ....and yep,then he became friend with some wild-ducks (?) and flied over sweden
It is a based on a book... I can't recall the author's name though....Any Swede that can help us?

MightyA: Yes!!!! Tao Tao it was, thank you It was so cute

When I was a kid, it was all about Tom & Jerry. I can't believe that was actually specifically programmed for children (the Simpsons parody is spot on). I also remember watching Mr. Dressup (R.I.P. Ernie Coombs) and Sesame Street.

I know Sesame Street was big internationally, but has anybody outiside of Canada ever seen Mr. Dressup? (He was on the CBC, right?)

Speaking of Canadian kids shows, how about "The friendly giant" and that weird flute theme he used to play? Living in Detroit we used to pick up a lot of CBC shows out of Windsor.

that sucks, there are almost no lyrics in the english version ...
the french version is far better (or far more ridiculous, as you want ) it's the same melody, but with french lyrics

french theme

Actually my best cartoon experiences came when I was already in teenage. Ren & Stimpy rulez!

What is that guy singing about? That sounds horrible.

the lyrics are crap for 6 year child, but they are too hard for me to translate it correctly
they are quite funny tough ... i have never seen someone not smiling while hearing that song

 

[Misanthrope]

Captain Tsubasa was hilarious
I will never forget how they managed to punch the ball tru the net and actually brake into the wall the only thing that kept me from watching too often is that is so frustrating watching them get from side to side of the field in 3 episodes...

 

[aegis]

ahahah
true i had forgotten that
the field was soooo big that it was round (due to the fact the earth is a globe )

I used to watch Mr. Dressup and the Friendly Giant too, but I'm also in Canada.

KUMMELI!!!!!!!!!!

And now South Park. It tells a lot about americans´vanity and double moralism in a self irony way, I think. I like that fact...

I got some pretty fucked-up nightmares because of Alice in Wonderland. Nothing equals Ren & Stimpy, not really old but...KULT!

 

[mindflesh]

Ninja Turtles and I think I liked the Duck Tales, as well
