My kids were asking me what my favorite childhood cartoon was. Growing up in the late-70s/early-80s with Saturday morning cartoons, I really had to think about it.

I decided on: Star Blazers (Anyone remember that one?)

Closely followed by a 3-way tie for 2nd place: Speed Racer, Johnny Quest, and Loony Tunes (1940s/50s era).

Yours?

Transformers and He-Man and I have very vague memories of sitting through entire episodes of The Electric Company just waiting for their version of Spiderman.

Astroboy

That was the only reason I watched The Electric Company as a kid.

I loved Star Blazers! Robotech, Transformers, and Voltron were my other favs. At least those were the ones I made a conscious effort to watch.

Transformers
G.I. Joe

Also Spider-man was probably the only reason I watched Electric company I would wait the entire episode for what was probably a 3 minute skit. Ahhh the good ol’ days.

This man has good taste…except that he left off the Silver Hawks.

When I was real little, I NEVER missed Laser Tag.

When I was even smaller, I actually watched that piece of crap Rubik The Magic Cube…as if that wasn’t a cry for more toy money from the creators.

Bunch of nickelodeon stuff from the 90s.

Bump in the Night (The opening theme song would get stuck in my head for hours and hours)

Hmmm… I’m a lot younger than some people around here… so most of it was Nickelodeon shit.

If we’re talking cartoons only, I’d say:

Doug
Hey Arnold!
Beetlejuice
Rugrats pre-movie was alright, too.

What the hell?? Spider man doesn’t talk. Instead, a dialog box appears. That’s some good weed they had back then.

And the 70’s porno guitar strumming is great.

My kids are intrigued with “The Electric Company” now.

Why do they dress funny?
