Wow, I didn't think anyone would remember it.

[a la izquierda]

7. Tom and Jerry

[Downwinder]

8. Li'l Abner, Dick Tracy

[Blue_In_AK]

9. I loved Beanie and Cecil, too.

Also Rocky and Bullwinkle. My favorite Loonytoon character was Daffy Duck.

[Locut0s]

10. DuckTails, Batman TAS

I grew up during the 90s during the fantastic heyday of Disney Saturday morning cartoons like DuckTails, Tailspin, Darkwing Duck, Gooftroop, Rescue Rangers etc...

I was also a big fan of the action cartoons of that era like TMNT, Batman, and others.

Of these though DuckTails and Batman The Animated series really stand out!

[LumosMaxima]

11. Speed Racer, until I was about five.

My local station stopped carrying it then, and I was *very* upset.

I also liked Underdog & Scooby Doo.

[Brigid]

13. Any of the old Warner Bros. cartoons.

I hadn't thought of Cecil the Seasick Sea Serpent in years!

[bigwillq]

14. The Peanuts specials

I love Snoopy!!!

[NuclearDem]

15. Looney Tunes, Doug, Rugrats.

[fizzgig]

25. i loved doug

[NCarolinawoman]

16. Mighty Mouse!

[yellowdogintexas]

60. Original Mighty Mouse was my first favorite. Bullwinkle and Beany & Cecil came later.

but I did love the Looney Tunes

[Paulie]

17. Underdog

Didn't realize till adulthood he had a serious drug problem.

[WorseBeforeBetter]

18. Casper the Friendly Ghost, Bugs, Roadrunner and Tom & Jerry.

Scooby Doo, too.

[MrScorpio]

19. Looney Toons

To be followed by the Marvel Super Heroes

[Jamaal510]

20. Cow and Chicken because

I got a kick out of how they could get away with so many questionable jokes for a children's show at the time. For example, they had the Red Guy never wearing pants, and there was an episode where Chicken found tampons in the girl's bathroom and thought they were cigars. And of course, who can forget Cow and Chicken's favorite dinner--pork butts 'n 'taters? The only things they didn't do on that show that were normally shown on older cartoons like the Looney Tunes was show people shooting things (hello, Elmer Fudd), smoking, and getting drunk at the bars--instead of beer, the bartenders served milk on that show.

[GReedDiamond]

21. Tom Slick...

and George of the Jungle (multiple episodes)...

[HoneychildMooseMoss]

41. And don't forget Super Chicken

The 3rd member of the trilogy!

[First Speaker]

22. Donald Duck in Mathemagic Land

...anyone ever seen this? It's just incredibly cool...abstract but very, well, duckish...I think of it along with 50s jazz and "modern" science fiction as emblematic of the 1950s...

[fizzgig]

26. one of my favorites

They used to show it in math class

[HarveyDarkey]

23. Mighty Mouse

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

24. This Merrie Melodies was my favorite

"Bacall To Arms", about a very horny wolf sitting in a movie theater watching "To Have And Have Not" with Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall and going absolutely nuts for Lauren Bacall. The last few seconds now seem pretty racist when I watch it but that didn't register like that back in the late 50s when I first saw it on TV.

This Bugs Bunny cartoon about an opera singer tortured by Bugs was also a fav (Long-Haired Hare).

http://www.supercartoons.net/cartoon/631/bugs-bunny-long-haired-hare.html

"I Love To Singa" about an owl portraying Al Jolson who loves jazz (I was into classical and jazz as a kid).

https://ia600808.us.archive.org/16/items/ClassicRareAndCensoredCartoons/071836ILoveToSingaMmBr.mp4

Popeye was one of my favorites, too:

[orleans]

27. casper & woody woodpecker

but most of all i loved the clacking sound garfield goose made when he "talked" and his beak clacked together.

[Initech]

28. Was and still is: The Simpsons

Can't believe it's been on the air for its 25th season.

[Locut0s]

30. About 15 seasons too many IMHO...

Loved their first 7 to 10 seasons of course.

[nomorenomore08]

31. Basically anything Warner Brothers - "Loony Tunes," "Merry Melodies," "Tiny Toon Adventures,"

and maybe most of all, "Animaniacs." Even if some of the more risque references went over my head at ~9 years old.

[sarge43]

33. First childhood: Looney Tunes. Second: Duckman. n/t

[ok_cpu]

34. Scooby-Doo, Laff A Lympics, The Flintstones

Wacky Races
Jonny Quest

I guess I'm dating myself here....

[IrishAyes]

35. Mighty Mouse! He was my hero because

despite his diminutive size, he always won the day. Doubtless he was responsible for a lot of my sassiness that lingers still.

My son's favorite was Underdog, for much the same reason.

[valerief]

55. I thought Mighty Mouse was sexy! (Kids are weird.) nt

[IrishAyes]

56. The first time we took our son to Disnetland, he was only about 3.

He looked at Minnie Mouse and gushed to me, "She's so beautiful!"

[Gidney N Cloyd]

36. Guess.

[KatyaR]

37. Rocky and Bullwinkle.

I didn't know it was comedy even adults could get, but I loved it. I think it still holds up today.

[Brother Buzz]

40. Colonel Bleep

We were easily amused back back in the day

[HoneychildMooseMoss]

[sir pball]

43. Tom and Jerry.

I knew what the old ultraviolence was long before I came across Clockwork Orange..

[Xipe Totec]

44. Well...

[libodem]

46. I loved cartoons as a kid

Even some as an adult. I used to have Shake, Meatwad, and Frylock as my avatar, until I got sick of people thinking I was an adolescent male and not a woman.

I loved Mighty Mouse. I liked Popeye. I waited through the news at 5:00 for Yogi Bear and Huckle Berry Hound. I liked Underdog and Sweet Polly Purebread. I still think Cheney emulated Simon Bar Sinister as an idol.

I thought Jonny Quest was da bomb, when I was about 10.

I loved Disney features, too.

If I had cable, I'd still watch Adult swim.

[lastlib]

47. Snooper and Blabber!!

Quick-Draw McGraw, Huckleberry Hound, Yogi & Boo-Boo, "Thnaggleputhth" ("Ekthit--Thtage Right!&quot

[Broken_Hero]

48. Looney Tunes,

but GI Joe is a very close second.

[NCarolinawoman]

50. Those old Betty Boop cartoons with that VERY strange CoCo the clown.

VERY VERY creepy.

[Vashta Nerada]

51. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987)

[Locut0s]

52. +1 :)

[Matariki]

53. All the Tricksters!

Speedy Gonzales, Road Runner, Bugs Bunny

[B Calm]

54. The Tasmanian Devil

[Demoiselle]

58. Pogo Possum.

Yes, really. I am terribly old.

A friend of my parents introduced Pogo to me. Early on, there were comic books and comic strips…sweetly, slapstick funny, with wonderfully human characters disguised as owls and alligators and rabbits and, yes, possums. Walt Kelly got more topically political as time went on, which I loved. He even took on Joe McCarthy and his ilk. (Google Simple J. Malarkey, for example.)
It all happened in the Okefenokee Swamp (sp.?) which I wouldn't have known existed if it weren't for Pogo.

[chungking34]

59. The simpsons

Even today, that show still makes me laugh. Looney Tunes is also great.

[Steerpike]

61. Johnny Quest

Best Theme Song Ever!

[UncleYoder]

62. Terrytoons

Love me some Heckel and Jeckel.

[Xyzse]

63. I think it depended on my age but...

I'll Just say Astroboy and Voltes V.

Otherwise I'd try to debate on adding HeMan, ThunderCats, Daimos, and others in there.
