Holy jeebus YES!
The people that brought up The Muppet Show and Fraggle Rock...  I couldn't agree more (owning the entirety of both shows).  The one man in history, as far as creativity in entertainment that I hold as high as Chuck Jones, is Jim Henson.  Get him, Oz, Goelz and Nelson together and you just simply have the stuff of legendary and biblical proportions.

*sigh*...  Sorry, had to drop this in...  I miss that man.  Oddly enough, coming up on the 19th anniversary of his passing, the 16th of this month.

The Saturday morning ritual: Get up in time to watch Jonny Quest, fix a bowl of Captn' Crunch, and watch stuff like the Bannana Splits, or Bugs Bunny and Roadrunner... maybe watch Land of the Lost, or Space Academy, or Isis and Captain America... At noon, watch the body counts from 'Nam being reported, along with some really bloody footage of villiages being destroyed, and VN nationals being shot in the head....

And people wonder why I'm weird....

OMG!  A guy at work just sent me some stills from this one, citing a manager we work with who speaks in complete gobbledegook and needs a translation ("Him say...") 

I'll always love the Warner Bros stuff, even Animaniacs.  Johnny Quest and the Herculoids were also favs of mine.  I am patiently waiting for a live action movie of "Thundarr the Barbarian"  (Lords of Light!!)  Come on, I mean they made a "Richie Rich" movie, for God's sake. 

I am not against the Japanese imports (I love Yu-Gi-Oh, and would gladly trade my vehicle for one of those "Pikachu" Volkswagon Bug comversions.)  For me it's definitely the eyes on the anime girls.  If I could find a RL girl with 4 inch high eyes, ...Sigh.

I watched GIJoe and the Transformers everyday after school in the mid 80's. I also loved the Heathcliff shows. Saturday mornings were Scooby-Doo and various other cartoons (I miss Grape Ape, Yogi, and the Pink Panther). I can still remember sitting in my home room class in high school and all of us yelling in unison when someone said the secret word from Pee Wee's Playhouse .

Laugholympics was a saturday morning ritual for me.  I will still run across the house to watch if I hear the theme from Hong Kong Phooey.

The old D&D cartoon was amazingly amazing.  Even though my friends and I used to sit around and dissect how inaccurately most of the monsters were portrayed in the cartoon vs the Monster Manual descriptions and stats.  "Har har, I hardly think a troll would be vanquished that easily.  They did, at most, 15 hp worth of damage to it" we would say.  Yes we were pretty nerdy, why do you ask?

Other 80s shows that had a real effect on me were Family Ties (I so wanted to be APK right down to the sweater vests and Richard Nixon poster), Magnum PI, and the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling (Hollywood!).

By the time the 80s rolled around, I was far from watching cartoons, but I do still remember Tom & Jerry and the Bugs Bunny/Road Runner hour, a bit earlier...OK, maybe a little more than slightly before the 80s...lol (& greedy thinks she feels old).

Fast reply

I gave up on cartoons when they started going from full animation to "whatever-it-is-they-called-the-new-crap" It just wasn't the same. A couple of my pre-historic favorites were Quick-draw McGraw and Yogi Bear. And speaking of pre-historic there was the Flintstones, though as I remember it that came on on primetime on Friday nights in our area.

One of my other favorites was Rocky and Bullwinkle which for me had a HUGE resurgance in the early 70's after I had been introduced to the effects of imbibing a little herb. Under those conditions Rocky and Bullwinkle went from funny to hilarious!

Kermit's still doing movies... He was just doing a cameo in "Mr. Magorium"

Voltron all the way.
Goooooooooooooooo Bots!
Hulk Hogan also had a WWF cartoon about him and his crew vs Hot Rod Rowdy
Piper and his gang.
The Get Along Gang.
He Man
Shela 

USA had Mr T, Pack Man, and Quebert. 

Other than Mr T and Hulk Hogan, Chuck Noris also had a cartoon.

Nick had Inspector Gadget and Count Duckula.

Any Punky Bruster fans here? She had her live and cartoon version.

I also remember when Big Foot and other Monster Trucks had their cartoon special.

Hell, even the Dukes of Hazord and Donkey Kong had cartoons.

As for TV, I watched The A Team, Air Wolf, Night Rider, Mission Imposible, Miami Vice, Jake and The Fat Man, Magnum PI and Ripley's Believe it or Not!.

I just bought a set of "Star Trek: The Animated Series" and I relized just how much that I really missed Saturday Morning Cartoons.

So I am getting a Copy of "Blackstar", "Dungons and Dragons" and "V". Am Seriously thinking about Jason of Star Command, and Buck Rogers in the 25th Century.

I can see this as a Saturday Morning thing for me, since I hate the Dreck that they feed kids on Saturday Morning TV as all it is is Japanese card game crap and stuff designed as pablum for younger kids.

What ever happened to good old fashioned violence and good versus evil struggles!


Ah the 80's. I'll give you the intros to some of the cartoons I watched growing up. Cartoons used to be about teaching kids valuable lessons while entertaining. You absorbed the lessons without knowing you did. I'm disappointed with current cartoons. Of course you can't go wrong with old looney toons or tom and jerry.

Nice to see someone else mention Voltron
Anyone remember Star Blazers, they showed that @ 6:30 am every weekday morning, and the episodes counted down how much time Earth had left.
Robotech
King Kong
Spiderman

I would give a lot to find every season of the Bugs Bunny Show. LoonyTunes, Bullwinkle and Rocky, Porky Pig, Underdog, George of the Jungle.. the old one not the new piece of crap.  I miss those shows.

That is going to be difficult, unfortunately, on the Looney Tuns.  The best you'll probably be able to do without some extreme effort, is the Looney Tuns Golden Collection sets, which there are 7 volumes out now, maybe 8, but I'm sure of 7.  Each set contains around 60 cartoon shorts plus extras.  Rocky and Bullwinkle and Friends is also out on DVD.  Not sure about Underdog or George of the Jungle though.  I'm thinking Underdog is, but not positive.

Right now, I'm thinking of good ol Dudley Doright... That was a fun cartoon. :)
