Oh yeah we had Top Cat occasionally but it wasn't very often, kind of like a fill in program. Scooby was kind of the same it definitely wasn't a regular show. Because we only had one commercial station it was a mix of the three commercial channels from the city, a bit like what Imapaja is in central Aus these days. Who decided what that mix was obviously wasn't a kid. The ABC was always the ABC and shows what the city did with the exception of a few shows that were country only. I watched Top Cat with my kids more than I watch it as a kid...but I do love that troublesome cat.

Makes sense since I would have been obviously watching re-runs of those shows. I believe they used to have those 'toons all back-to-back but for some reason I only remember a few of them, until I got older and started tracking them all down on DVD and watched the shit out stuff like Hong Kong Phooey (still watch this one occasionally), The Yogi Bear Show, Wacky Races, The Magilla Gorilla Show, The Hair Bear Bunch etc. For some reason I could never get into The Jetsons, even these days I just get nothing out of it. :/
 
Flintstones was a Saturday night after the news thing for us. For about 6 months of the year we got Flintstones and then the other 6 months we got Wonderful World Of Disney, which at the time was movies like Herbie etc. I think the ABC played Magilla Gorilla, but I don't remember it on often and Wacky Races turned up from time to time in Bugs Bunny, or some other cartoon show. I never got into the Jetsons either but I reckon there is more enjoyment in cartoons as an adult, I think cartoons are wasted on kids. :)

Some cartoons are best left to kids at the same time, got a buddy who swears by Captain Planet even now that we're in our 30's and man is that show trash. It must be pure nostalgia for him because it really sucks.

I don't remember Captain Planet. I do remember Banana man and that was pretty terrible. But you're right some cartoons are better left for kids. Thankfully both my kids have out grown fucking Peppa Pig now. But we still watch Bluey together.

Makes me cringe to think about some of the dumbass shows I loved as a kid. Scooby-Doo, Where Are You was one of my favorites. Also loved this bullshit, purely because it had the Mario Bros in it:



On the other hand I've revisited Ren and Stimpy and Beavis and Butt-Head as an adult, and still love both.

There's a few others I might like as an adult (Doug, Courage the Cowardly Dog, anything by Genndy Tartakovsky), but I haven't tried yet.

lol fair. i think i was into south park before x-men though tbh

courage the cowardly dog is pretty great but i’ve only watched it as an adult.

i compiled a rym list a while back of all the kids shows i watched as a child, obviously british centric but we had tons of american stuff too
 
Holy shit I forgot all about Babar. I think I used to hate that show back then but when my son was way younger he used to watch those on VHS and I didn't hate it. Also Arthur. <3

Edit: Count Duckula! This is a nostalgia trip dude.

5 fav Eagle Twin songs:
1. Crow Hymn
2. Snake Hymn
3. And It Came to Pass That Birds Fell to Earth as Black Snakes
4. Carry On, King of Carrion
5. Murder of...

Never heard of 2 Stupid Dogs, will have to look it up.
Funny thing is I haven't seen all of it so I should fix that. It was a Hanna-Barbera thing. Wikipedia says it was combined with segments of the Secret Squirrel remake, but if I remember correctly, the episodes aired sparingly as an addition to the The Atom Ant/Secret Squirrel Show as well. I don't remember the TV listings here ever having "2 Stupid Dogs" as the title.

I haven't seen all the eps of the other shows I listed either of course, nor some of my other fav TV shows for that matter. I guess faves can hold a kind of mythical status and it's kinda fun to procrastinate on seeing them properly. I was 13 or 14 when South Park arrived here and watched that religiously from the start for a bunch of seasons, and SpongeBob came along even later than that. Still counting that as "growing up"!
