Miscellaneous Monday - Favorite Cartoons

[Andy Gladstone]

Happy Monday to all those that celebrate! 😁 (As many of you know, I am not a big Monday fan!)

I couldn't let a Monday go by without a Miscellaneous Monday post, and I know that @Fun Man Andy has been busy folding his Speedos (do they even need folding?) and getting them ready for Team '22. So I'm jumping in to fill a gap that is frankly larger than one Andy can make up for.

So here's my thought on this Miscellaneous Monday - which has been inspired by my recent interaction with @Patrícia Fortunato Montenegro.

What's your favorite cartoon from when you were a kid? Some of us are from the Jetsons/Flinstones/Yogi the Bear generation, others from He-Man/She-ra/Transformers and even some from the Dora/Diego generation! 

Here's the rules - no text responses! You may only post a picture/gif/meme from your favorite cartoon, and then it's up to the rest of us to guess what your favorite cartoon was!

OK? READY?

Then Autobots Roll Out!

"to all those that celebrate!" hahahaha

I have an aversion to (some) cartoons as an adult and have not yet been able to figure out why. Theories are very welcome! I just like, kind of hate cartoons? Except Disney movies are fine and I enjoyed My Little Pony when my kid was into it. I don't even understand my own rules. But it has kept me from Bob's Burgers, Bojack Horseman, Stephen Universe, and other shows my friends enjoy. It's a mystery for the ages. 

When I was a kid though I loved cartoons! My favorites were The Smurfs and Jem and the Holograms. Truly outrageous!

The only text I'm going to write is I can't have just one, so you will get a few:

My First Cartoon/Anime was Hungry Heart Wild Stricker which is also my all-time favourite:

A GIF from the actual cartoon is too easy to guess... it's so obvious once one sees it. So tried a cryptic puzzle in GIFs. (Still too obvious though... LOL)

Here's the close second place from my childhood... it's not really a puzzle; again, super obvious

[Patrícia Fortunato Montenegro]

Hahahaha, awesome!

A bit of text, may I? 😋  To be mentioned in your post, it's such an honor for me, @Andy Gladstone

[Jimmy Seddon]

YESSS!!!! D&D the cartoon was hilarious!!!

[Patrícia Fortunato Montenegro]

I FULLY agree with you, @Jimmy Seddon

[Fun Man Andy]

D&D in my Top 5, that's for sure!!

Summary Post

Assuming that everyone in here enjoyed these cartoons in their original run (not re-runs on the Cartoon Network or in syndication), we are a group that are children of the 80's (best cartoon generation ever!).

Removing the Looney Tunes outlier (which I assume we all saw in syndication) and the newest entry, Inuyasha, the average run of our favorite cartoons was 1987-1991. 

[Jimmy Seddon]

LOVE this!  Thanks for posting the summary @Andy Gladstone!

[Dave Liao]

Data-driven entertainment!

[Patrícia Fortunato Montenegro]

OMG, it's fabulous @Andy Gladstone

I LOVE this too!

Thank you! 🤩

p.s: Now, I daydreamed on Saturday morning with my cereal bowl, waiting to watch my favorite Cartoons. 😁

[Fun Man Andy]

BRILLIANT ! ! 🌟💫👏

[Marjorie]

Love it!  Thanks @Andy Gladstone

[Patrícia Fortunato Montenegro]

@Jack Brickey me toooooo.... Love Wile E Coyote

[Max Foerster - K15t]

Oh my god, yes! That one was awesome. 😁

[Brant Schroeder]

I watched a lot of Looney toons, scooby-doo, scrappy-doo, he-man, gi joe and godzilla / godzuckie.  I remember Saturday mornings being very exciting because we were able to watch cartoons and eat cereal.  Never realized it was probably more exciting to my mother who got to sleep in and not make breakfast.  

[Andy Gladstone]

Shout out to all of the Moms that let us break the rules and eat in front of the TV while watching cartoons!

[Max Foerster - K15t]

No breakfast in front of the TV but cartoons in the morning were okay. 😁

I forgot about Dexter, might have to try and find that to watch it with my kids.

[Rémi BERNIÈRES]

And the french voice of Dee-dee in Dexter's laboratory is Dorothee Pousseo, also known for Overwatch Tracer's voice

I just recently learned that the series is French. I enjoyed watching it, it was very well known in Germany, and I recently learned that it was also a hit in Israel. My partner grew up with it as well. I wonder where else the series explained life to children. 😁
