Ok so im only slightly old school. I like a lot of cartoons either from now, or still around now, but I love some older stuff as well. I know im not quite as wisened as some of you, lol, but I do remember thunder cats, captian planet, old school looney toons, transformers, and a bit later, some stuff like beast wars. anyone else have an older or obscure cartoon that takes them back to another time?
Tom and jerry by Fred Quimby is the best I think
Being wisened, I really enjoyed sharing older cartoons, and Speed Racer and Tenessee Tuxedo specifically, with my son. In fact, he is the only child that understands older tech in some classes (copper wire line, rotary phones, cloud seeding, rocketry, etc ...) because of TT! Niches really well now that he's all things technology, since he usually researches topics of interest back to invention.
In the other direction there are some incredible anime series out there. Wonderful art, awesome soundtracks, strong stories, great characters. Some of this stuff is as impressive as feature films. Really something for everybody, and worth a look if you like scifi and animation but wrote it off as kids stuff.
Ah speed racer that brings back memories.
@Fulishsage Speed racer, fasted dialogue ever.
felix the cat...tom & jerry...i remember the banana splits.. it was a show that had like 7 different shows in itself.. not cartoons but they had sid & marty, and some more i forgot.
used to always watch battle of the planets g-force
The two regular feature cartoons in the Banana were "The Arabian Knights" and "The Three Musketeers" both made by Hanna Barbera
Mighty Max from the early 1990's, based off of the toys.
Herculoids, Thundar the Barbarian, Johnny Quest, Voltron, Robotech. Dammit, I miss cel animation.
Ren&Stimpy show.
@SpikeTalon wasn't this on nickalodean? did i spell that terribly wrong? i didn't get that where i grew up, but mu cousins did. i loved ren and stimpy, and beavis and butthead
@Byrd It sure was.
Dark wing duck
ah! I forgot about this! and it made me think of tailspin and ducktales, thank you!
@Byrd there was another one about that time. Something with a long tail, can't remember the name.
@Fulishsage Bonkers, I think. uUnless you're thinking of the really long tailed critter from Raw Toonage.
