Probably been done before.
Just that my kids seem to enjoy the old ones the best. The stuff I used to watch - still do.
My favs are The Pink Panther[including The Inspector and Ant and Aardvark] and Foghorn Leghorn.
Should I be worried?
Scooby Doo was my favourite until they introduced Scrappy, he was annoying.
Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles
Batman
Ghostbusters
The Simpsons
All great cartoons back in the day
I loved the Pink Panther, but hated the in between bits (Ant and Aardvark etc.), though I did like the Inspector. My kids like his Pinkness too.
Ivecollected most of the loony toons, which I don't think will ever be beaten
my little girl has a soft spot for Mickey mouse and Tom and Jerry.
Dungeons and dragons. Superb.
Foghorn Leghorn - i say, boy!
Tom and Jerry the old ones directed by Fred Quimbey.
There was specific series of Cartoons that had a quite quitrky, lefh of centre feel. Again directed by a specific director who gave his name to the series.
What a wonderful thing this Google. Tex Avery was the guys name. Check him out.
In book form, Calvin and Hobbs.
Tom & Jerry was great alright but for me Foghorn Leghorn was the best of them ;D
I always thought that Pink Panther was too gay for my liking. The in betweeny bits annoyed me too. I love the naked barbarism of Tom and Jerry. Roadrunner I loved. Foghorn was great too, your man Fred from Coronation street as so like him with his repetition of his words :D
I also like Ulysses, Dungeons and Dragons(the Dungeon Master is the spitting image of our old groundsman in Cross), and latter the Animaniacs were class.
The Simpsons would be the Kerry of cartoonland...way ahead of everything else and no chance of anyone catching them. But apart from them my favourites are The Flintstones and Topcat.
Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles
Captain Planet
The Hurricanes - awesome theme tune

You were an advanced child.
My fav is Scooby doo :)
Anyone remember those awful Czechoslovakia ones that RTE used to show in the 70s or early 80s?
Made in the 50s in black and white.
Desperate desperate shite. Made Daithi Lacha look ground-breaking!
I liked Ulysses, that Cities of Gold one, Dogtanian and when I was younger Scooby Doo, Yogi Bear and Top Cat!
My eldest is a big fan of Ben 10 and I have to admit to liking it too! Can't really think of many modern cartoons I like apart from it.
The Racoons was a great show!!!!
Happened upon this lad...any of ye remember him?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kon4czfAHu4&NR=1
Gummi Bears & Raggy Dolls definitely rank up there with my favourite cartoons!
Hard to beat a bit of Superted and Bananaman!
Some real connoisseurs here. Foghorn Leghorn and Quimby's and Avery's Tom and Gerrys - great stuff. I used to think I was almost alone in being a Foghorn fan. I thought The Pink Panther was sublime. Surreal stuff. I loved the one where his vacuum cleaner runs amok, gobbling up everything, including cars, buildings, etc. Finally, he turns the nozzle around to look into in and it swallows him and then itself and disappears.
Thunder Thunder Thunder Thundercats WHOOOOOW Classic, theyre making a CGI movie at present. Cant wait.
Gummi Bears, Racoons, captain planet, speed racer, scooby doo, transformers, tom and jerry, road runner, inspector gadget, Ghostbuster, Batman, craggy rock.........love cartoons, those were the days.

Dont think the Turtles could be beat.
