Back when Saturday morning cartoons was good.
 
You guys see the crap that they put on TV nowadays? I watched cartoons in the late 80s early 90s. When they still had shows like Transformers, Ninja Turtles(original cartoon), GI Joe, Mighty Max, and the list goes on. I hate to admit it, but if you ignore that gay "heart" dude, I even enjoyed Captain Planet.

What did you guys watch as a kid? I'm trying to remember some of the old quality shows.

Life is like a hurricane
Here in Duckburg
Race cars, lasers, aeroplanes
It's a duck-blur
Might solve a mystery
Or rewrite history

DuckTales (ooh ooh)
Every day they're out there making
DuckTales (ooh ooh)
Tales of daring do bad and good
Luck tales (ooh ooh)

When it seems they're heading for the
Final curtain
Cool deduction never fails
That's for certain
The worst of messes
Become successes

DuckTales (ooh ooh)
Every day they're out there making
DuckTales (ooh ooh)
Tales of daring do bad and good
Luck tales (ooh ooh)

D-d-d-danger watch behind you
There's a stranger out to find you
What to do, just grab on to some Duck Tales

DuckTales (ooh ooh)
Every day they're out there making
DuckTales (ooh ooh)
Tales of daring do bad and good
Luck tales (ooh ooh)

D-d-d-danger, watch behind you
There's a stranger out to find you
What to do, just grab on to some

DuckTales (ooh ooh)
Every day they're out there making
DuckTales (ooh ooh)
Tales of daring do bad and good
Luck tales (ooh ooh)

DuckTales (ooh ooh)
Every day they're out there making
DuckTales (ooh ooh)
Tales of daring do bad and good
Luck tales (ooh ooh)
Not pony tales or cotton tales, no
DuckTales (ooh ooh)

All the cartoons of the late '80s and early '90s sucked. I turned them on sometimes and thought "how can kids watch crap like that"?

The cartoons of the '70s and a bit into the '80s were great.

When I was a kid and the Cartoon Network was new, they used to just show 60's and 70's cartoons. I though [censored] like Top Cat, Hong Kong Fooey and all that stuff was great. even A Pup Named Scooby Doo and Flintstone Kids had their moments.

Hercules (the one with the ring)
Bucky'O'Hare
DWD kicked ass
DBZ
I also like most of the superhero shows - Batman, Superman, Spiderman, X-Men. Some of the new CGI and next generation ones of these are OK, but not the same.

Growing up in the 70s we had the standard Warner and Hanna Barbara fare. Favorites included

Hong Kong Fooey,
Scooby Doo,
Justice League,
Looney Tunes

Early in the morning, though, the local stations had some 60s classics on:

Mighty Heroes with Rope Man and Diaper Man, among others,
and Courageous Cat and Minute Mouse

I watched the tick much more in high school when it was on comedy central at 6:30pm M-F. That followed by an hour of simpson's on fox was an incredible entertainment block. I got so pissed when my local fox station started splitting up the simpson's with the drew carey show or married with children.

Re: Back when Saturday morning cartoons was good.
 
A tremndous amount of the previously mentioned cartoons appear on Boomerang . Check it out. I haven't seen them do it in awhile, but occasionally they'll have a Flashback weekend, where it's 1969 or 1973. Really spooky, plus you get to see how truly awful some things were, plus how good other things were.

As for modern cartoon, Spongebob is a classic. Every bit as good as the classics from Warner Brothers, it also works for adults, who get some of the references kids don't. Little ones love Dora The Explorer and Go Diego Go. Avatar: The Last Airbender is a tremdously involved continuing storyline series. And Jimmy Netron and Fairly Oddparents stand up pretty well.

You get to see/hear an awful lot of Nick when the computer is in the same room as the TV.
