Between the Lions. There were far too many Dad puns for my little brain to handle. It broke me

For pure nostalgia, the answer would be Franklin.
For the wacky antics it’d definitely be a tie between Ed Edd n’ Eddy and Codename Kids Next Door. What other shows can you get a cursed telephone that causes suffering and an elevator made of junk that leads to the moon for EEnE? Or for KND have a whole zoo filled with kids as the exhibits so childless parents can throw peanuts at them while also having an episode where a man who looks like a baby use his cigar to connect to a global satellite web to try and turn everyone else into babies?
What happened to Tazmanian Devil?
Do you mean Taz Mania or the original Taz shorts (Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies)?
Samurai Pizza Cats. My grandma would have tapes of it so whenever I went over to my grandma’s house, chances are this show would be playing at some point haha. The episode I remember the most is the one with the dragon.
Johnny Bravo
It’s a Dutch show that was beautifully drawn and animated in Japan. It still looks fantastic and it takes you seriously as the material is quite mature. It’s about ww2, sort of like deep space 9. There’s a lot of world exploration and adventure and it adresses societal issues. The only bummer is that the gender norms are quite old fashioned so it might not be appropriate for your kids based on your views.
Pinky and the Brain.
Although now as a middle aged man, Bluey.
Wtf no one said TOM&JERRY??
I used to watch a lot of Boomerang in Latin America, they aired either OG Looney Tunes or Tom and Jerry for 1 hour daily
The background art in the early ones was beautiful.
I was about to type about tom and jerry lmao
I had a love/hate relationship with that show because I felt so sorry for Tom. Kept watching it though so clearly it did something right.
Dexter’s Laboratory, Cow and Chicken, Power Puff Girls
Wren and Stimpy?
They were too weird for me in my early teens, I first got them years later.
Jem and the Holograms
Danger Mouse
The Smurfs
The Snorks
The Jetsons
David the Gnome
MarsupilamiCame here to say David the Gnome, just rewatched it recently and loved it. Never met someone else in real life who has ever seen it.
Reboot
It may not be the answer I gave at the time, but it’s the best balance now of “liked it as a kid” and “like it as an adult”
Make sure you check out the documentary that was released last month on YouTube! It’s called ReBoot Rewind.
I’m terrified of rewatching it and it not living up to my nostalgia.
A documentary was released on the show last month. During production they were given the original master tapes for the show and have been slowly releasing all of the episodes in glorious 4k for free on YouTube. Check them out - they hold up to nostalgia better than you’d expect.
Alphanumeric!
90 minutes of Looney Tunes.
Blues clues
Basically any fantasy cartoon that featured a voyage or some kind of quest was a favorite when I was little.
- The Adventures of Teddy Ruxpin
- Dungeons & Dragons
- Pirates of Dark Water
- Conan the Adventurer
Pirates of Dark Water was such an underrated show. It still makes me mad that it got canceled.
Dungeons & Dragons is such a classic. I still watch it on occasion.
The opening theme to Tintin is playing in my head right now. What a beautiful cartoon.
