Firefyter-EmtRemember " The Land of the Lost" ? I loved that show - it was not a cartoon but it did come on Saturdays -the sleestacks were the lizard like bad guys. The kids and a Dad were stuck back in dino time - it was pretty cool!!! I used to also love H.R. Puffenstuff and Foghorn Leghorn as well as the Roadrunner and Bugs shows too!! With todays cartoons there is so little left to the imagination - what is up with " Ed, Ed and Eddie" , " Cow and Chicken" , " Cat/Dog" ? I wish someone would re-invent cartoons to be fun like they used to instead of just crass. I do however, get a kick out of SpongeBob - he s a good guy!!!

And although not a cartoon... I was a real fan of
Captain Kangaroo

I loved the good Captian as well as Mr. Dress Up, although I think it was a Canadian show.

I also seem to recall wathcing the Smurfs, how lame was that show! I liked those singing rock lessons as well...I m just a Bill, on Capitol hill...or something to that effect

Firefyter-EmtMy favorites were Woody Woodpecker and Garfield Goose, though Garfield Goose wasn t actually a cartoon, it was puppets.

Firefyter-EmtI just want to give a shout out for Hong Kong Phooey!

In a ddition to the Saturday morning shows were of course Scoolhouse Rock in between.

My oldest son is four and I just bought (for him, I swear) the WHOLE collection on DVD.

Conjunction Junction, what s your function...

Firefyter-EmtI m just glad no one has mentioned the Smurfs as their favorite.

Firefyter-EmtI guess my fav. would have to be Bugs Bunny. Roadrunner was great. Baby Huewy, now there s an oldie.

MaryBeth,
Funny you mentioned The Banana Splits. Just last week while I was sitting around playing my guitar, I hit a note or two, and the next thing I know I had picked out the Banana Splits theme song. Hard to believe I remembered after all these years.

Firefyter-EmtAnd Old Woody Woodpecker. Actually any of the OLD cartoons are better than the ones done today, IMO. There s just something about the old hand drawn animation over computer animation that makes them better.

Wait, wait, that s not fair. They said " as a kid" The ones I like as a grown-up (yeah right) are something else instead.

OH MY GOD!!!......THEY KILLED KENNY!

What about Ren & Stimpy?

rednekrubbrduck · Jan 29, 2003, 07:58 AM

Firefyter-EmtI actually like a couple of the newer ones like the Batman, Superman, and the new Superfriends ones. They really don t seem like they re for kids.

On another note...just what was in a scooby snack?

Uh...........I WAS going to reply to this thread....until I read this. Honestly, The Smurfs WAS my favorite cartoon as a kid. I used to get up every Saturday morning to watch them.

I ve never been much of a TV watcher but if you ask me what cartoon I liked to watch as a kid, The Smurfs would be the first one that comes to mind. I memorized each and every Smurf and could name them all off, one at a time.

I also liked Scooby-Doo, but didn t watch that one all the time because certain episodes would give me nightmares (what can I say, I was a sensitive kid).
