as a kid what was your favorite animated show?

[Mrs. Readsalot]

Mine was The Flintstones, and I especially like the Great Gazoo(sp?)
I would rush home to finish my homework just so I could watch it.

[JFS in IL]

with a Penelope Pitstop in it. I'm talking early-mid.1960s here. We ahve since found a lot of the Thunderbird shows on DVD (Thunderbirds are GO!) and my son with autism LOVES them!

[jacqui in mo]

Bullwinkle, Underdog, and Flintstones. :0) Really liked the Fractured FairyTales & Mr. Peabody in the Bullwinkle cartoon.

[Mom2jnb]

I loved Smurfs on Saturday mornings.

Also, Scooby Doo it used to kind of scare me but I watched it anyhow.

My kids couldn't watch Scooby either....it scares them.

[Deece in MN]

I would get up at 4am so I could get ready for school before morning cartoons came on. :D
My favorites were Thundercats, Transformers, Flintstones, Smurfs and G.I.Joe.
I know I watched others, but these were my favorites.

[awanama]

I would say Duck Tales, Grape Ape, Flinstones, and Roadrunner. I absolutely hated Scooby Doo and my brother made me watch it all the time. Now my dd loves it and it still drives me crazy!

[OnTheBrink]

Josie and the Pussycats, Scooby Doo, Pink Panther, and Flintstones.

[CindyH in NC]

I found a VHS copy of several of the PP episodes at a local thrift store last year, and my youngest loves these.

My absolute favorites growing up were Johnny Quest, Inspector Gadget and Scooby Doo. Of course I watched almost all of the others already mentioned also. :D

[j.griff]

Smurfs!!!! The Snorks, Tranzor-Z, He-Man, Gummi Bears, Heckyl and Jeckyl (sp?)- those two crows, Woody the Woodpecker, Mighty Mouse, and I loved the animation that played on Nickelodeon's show Pinwheel- they had claymation and cartoons

[Michelle T]

Fractured Fairy Tales, Bullwinkle, Dudley Dooright, Roadrunner.

The idea that you could overcome evil by linking arms with your family and beaming love from your guts really thrilled me.

[GLOWAcademy]

Felix the cat
speed racer

[Plaid Dad]

Scooby Doo, Pink Panther, Mighty Mouse, and of course, Bugs Bunny. (Am I dating myself something awful here?)

[Wendi]

Those are my top three.

Wendi

[BusyBee]

The Flintstones. I had to watch it everyday.

[Tarheel Heather]

The Thundercats, my dad would turn it up to wake us up in the morning. I loved the Smurfs and the Snorkels. And the one where the dog would jump in file cabinet and pop out in a karate outfit. :)

[Tarheel Heather]

Inspector Gadget and Johnny Quest.

[JFS in IL]

I remember vividly watching an evening promo show of the new Saturday morning line-up and seeing the first episode of Kimba the White Lion.

Who lives down in deepest darkest Africa?
(Africa)
Who's the one who brought the jungle fame?
Who's the king of Animals in Africa?
Kimba the white lion is his name! When we get in trouble and we're in a fight
Who's the one who just won't turn and run?
Who believes in doing good and doing right?
Kimba the white lion is the one! He's the greatest leader, there's no doubt of it.
He's the one we count on night and day.
When there's danger he can get us out of it--
Kimba the white lion leads the way!

[Tutor]

Loony Tunes and Simon in the Land of Chalk Drawings

[Mamagistra]

Who lives down in deepest darkest Africa?
(Africa)
Who's the one who brought the jungle fame?
Who's the king of Animals in Africa?
Kimba the white lion is his name!

Kimba's at Netflix, you know! We love him! :D (Props to MFS for introducing us...)

I liked Looney Tunes, especially Bugs and Daffy. :)

[Josie]

Jetsons, Flintstones, Josie and the Pussycats, Archie, Road Runner, Mr. Magoo, Yogi Bear

[nmoira]

Kimba here too. Man did I have a deja vu when I saw The Lion King. Also The Bugs Bunny Road Runner Hour and Rocky and Bullwinkle.

[Katia]

Speed Racer

Rough and Ready

[Mom to 3 Island Boys]

"Looney Tunes", hands down. My brother and I also went through a "Starblazers" stage.

[LNC]

especially the Wonder Twins bc I am a twin!
"Wonder twins power ~
ACTIVATE!!"
:)

[GreenKitty]

The Flintstones, Roadrunner, Jetsons, Looney Tunes

[Lizzie in Ma]

Also loved the Fantastic Four

[Virginia Dawn]

Watched many already mentioned, Speed racer, Kimba, Flinstones, Jetsons, Loony tunes, Mighty Mouse, Rocky and Bullwinkle, Dudley Doright, Underdog, Mr. Wizard, Fractured Fairytales, etc., etc., etc.

If it was on Saturday mornings in the early 70's, I watched it.

[RoughCollie]

Flintstones, Jetsons, Caspar the Friendly Ghost, Yogi Bear, Huckleberry Hound, Tom & Jerry, Popeye, Felix the Cat.

[Robin Hood]

Not animated, but I would get up early and get ready for school so I could watch I Married Joan. I have no idea why I liked that show. At a very young age, one of my favorite night time shows was The Carol Burnett Variety Show. I loved the live acts where they goofed and tried not to laugh.

[j.griff]

Oh, I loved Carol too, and another non-animated fave was My Favorite Martian, and Mork and Mindy.

[GaJeannie]

that takes me back to Saturday mornings watching Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Jetsons, Flintstones, Go Go Speed Racer, and Smurfs. And then something went around about Smurfs being of the devil bc they were blue. I never quite got that.

Happy Saturday!

[Janet in WA]

Mine was The Flintstones, and I especially like the Great Gazoo(sp?)
I would rush home to finish my homework just so I could watch it.Loved those Hanna Barberra cartoons (like the Flintstones). But my favorite cartoons were, and still are, Bugs Bunny. So clever, and there's humor that you love as a child, but appreciate on a deeper level as an adult.

[Diane]

Awww I Loved strawberry shortcake (now my little girl likes it), and I really liked the Flintstones. What's funny is my son just had a Violin concert and they played the Theme to the Flintstones and my son had NO idea what it was supossed to sound like. :) I found some youtube clips and he got it. :)

[3littlekeets]

Johnny Quest, Speed Racer, and though not animated HR Puff N Stuff and Land of the Lost!

[Dana in OR]

Underdog, Road Runner, Bugs Bunny, Tom and Jerry, but for me the best TV ever was Gilligan's Island. I also loved Batman (non-animated) on prime time, circa 1966.

[CindyPTN]

I loved She-Ra. I was dedicated to the story line. I hated missing an episode!

[Elisabeth in IL]

I don't know if it was my favorite but I had a crush on Speed Racer!!!! (sigh....) ;)

[gardenschooler]

Casper the Friendly Ghost was my all-time favorite.

Wait! I just saw Rough Collie's list - everything on there.

And of course, every episode of Gilligan's Island, the Brady Bunch, and Bewitched.

[MMinMN]

Pink Panther!!

[Lizzie in Ma]

I miss safe Saturday mornings. Anyone remember Janna of the Jungle? I loved that one too.

[Tonia]

I LOVED Jem and the Holograms when I was a kid.

[cin]

I liked Land of the Lost too! My favorite cartoons were Scooby Doo, Johnny Quest, Droopy, Mr. McGoo and Pepe LePew, whatever she was in???

[Doran]

Heh. I always think about this when I consider how limited (relatively) my kids' screentime is in comparison to my own.

We loved Tom & Jerry, Bugs Bunny, Road Runner, and The Jetsons. We also loved Flintstones, Scooby Doo, and Foghorn Leghorn. I'm sure there were others, but by now, my mother would have come in the room and said, "Okay, enought of these 'jumping jacks', it's time you got outside!"

Nuts don't fall far, huh? :rolleyes:

Doran

[Krista in LA]

My dad would watch all of the Road Runner ones with us, so that may be why I like it so much. I also liked Scooby Doo and Speed Buggy (not to be confused with Speed Racer). Oh, and the Flintstones and the Jetsons - had to go back in time and to the future.

[Audrey]

The Rocky & Bullwinkle Show, and Hong Kong Phooey!

I also liked the Bugs Bunny Show, but I liked Pepe le Pew best.

[NicksMama-Zack's Mama Too]

:eek:

[elegantlion]

Johnny Quest, Speed Racer, and though not animated HR Puff N Stuff and Land of the Lost!

Those were my favorite cartoons too! I had the biggest crush on Speed Racer. Ironically my dh is not unlike Speed Racer.

[Rachel]

Rocky & Bullwinkle..........probably my favorite
Mighty Mouse
George of the Jungle........okay, maybe that's my favorite
Road Runner
Speed Racer
The Smurfs........no, that's my favorite..........really!
