Loved Transformers and old the old Warner Bro cartoons. Roadrunner and Coyote were great. Don't think anyone has mentioned Yogi Bear yet butI used to love that show. Saw someone mentioned Dangermouse as well, that was awesome, there was a cool kid at primary school who let me hang out with him because I could do the laugh that Greenbacks little rodent cat type pet could make.
Does anybody else still get pissed off about Jerry always getting away with the shit he did to Tom? I mean that fucker was down right mean sometimes and he never really got his...
"The Rocky & Bullwinkle Show." And not just "moose and squirrel," but Fractured Fairy Tales, Mr. Peabody and his pet boy, Sherman. The older I became, the funnier they got. Of the action-hero variety, Thor was awesome, as were the Fantastic Four.
Jusst remembered some more that haven't been mentioned. Stop the Pigeon and all the other cartoons with Dick Dastardly and Muttley. Those ones were sweet muttley always laughing his ass off at Dick when his crack brained schemes failed miserably.
Many of those already mentioned, including He-man, She-Ra, TMNT, Real Ghostbusters, G.I. Joe, Thundercats, Transformers. My favourite cartoon was Jem and the Holograms: I also remember watching older cartoons that were being shown again. The one I remember most clearly is The Mighty Hercules:
The old ones. None of this new age puppy scooby bullshit. Not to mention all of the movies like with the Adams Family.
IT'S THE GRAND! PRIZE! GAME! Bozo the Clown came on WGN every morning. I always knew if I could play the grand prize game, I would ace that motherfucker.
Laff-o-lympics Wacky Racers (both All Hanna Barbera cast) I lived near Kings Dominion when I was a kid, and they had a contract with HB, so all the kids rides had (they didn't renew this contract years back and now have one wiht Nick) HB themes. Dick Dastardly's Flyers, Yogi's cave, Scooby Coaster, Smurf Mountian SHIRT TALES!!! Beetlejuice the Cartoon Bananna Man (5 min clips in between Nickelodeon cartoons, guy was British, ate a Bananna and saved the world) Count Duckula Live Action: Today's Special - so wait this manequin comes to life when you put a newsboy cap on him, and hangs out with a puppet mouse duo and a surley janitor named Sam? SWEET Hey Dude/Salute your shorts/Wild and Crazy kids Kids Gameshows: Finders Keepers Fun House Legends of the Hidden Temple Nick Arcade
I can't be the only one who watched the shit out of Robotech? There were space-F-14's, missiles flying everywhere and a main character actually died. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuWlcZRuiVI Edit: fixed link.
Huge on Disney my favorite show was Ducktales but I remember watching these ones alot also: Goof Troop Tail Spin Darkwing Duck and the Smurfs of course
I grew up on a steady diet of TMNT before school every morning. I know I watched a bunch of other stuff like duck tales and speed racer, but TMNT is the only one I can recall watching religiously. When I found out about the remake series they started a few years back I blew a load, however, it just didn't have the same appeal now as it did when I was a little tacker. I also used to catch the old school looney tunes whenever I could, and hated pokemon/dragonball z/all that shit though I don't really have a specific reason I can pinpoint
What are we doing tonight Brain? The same thing we do every night Pinky. Try to take over the WORLD! snarf
The rest of the film is also there if you so wish to watch, I heartily recommend it. Why? Because my parents read the book to me when I was very little. This version has so far been the most honest adaptation (and most heart warming) of the book, with a television series following on from the film. Not one other rendition of this story has managed to capture the characters personalities, emotion, and Mr. Toad's escapade's better than this. I can't even hear the music from the opening without feeling slightly unusual after a tidal wave of nostalgia. The series continuing the story from the film touched on areas of the book that were trimmed away, one very surprising element which was a central theme from the book has only so far been covered in this adaptation and a more recent version with Matt Lucas; The Piper at the Gates of Dawn (Does the name sound familiar? The story has served as inspiration for many musicians, artists and film makers over the years) so far fails to get even a mention in most integrations of the book into other mediums, yet the title is a direct reference to the Piper. In addition, really there hasn't been mention of any Gerry Anderson production yet? Quirky puppet walking galore! I've been revisiting this recently as HMV have knocked down the box set from £150 to £20, most likely due to the heathens' ignorance of a children's classic.
