Favorite Cartoon Of Your Youth

There's only one...Bugs Bunny, what an actor. All the others may be close seconds but he is the acme for me.

 

I was partial to "Help! ... It's The Hair Bear Bunch!" I think I wanted to live their lifestyle.
Whacky Races and Stop The Pigeon too of course. There were so many back then.

 

And, of course:

 

Beep, beep

 

But then I found Sgt. Bilko.

 

Rocky and Bullwinkle et al. I still recall the moment - years later - when I discovered there was an opera called Boris Godunov.

 

the first 2 seasons with John K at the helm were genius.

 

Danger Mouse
G-Force Battle of the Planets in Aus but in Japan Gatchaman?
oh and Starblazers, Ulysses 31 and Astro Boy
Some great Japanese animation on in the afternoon for a young Australian school kid

 

--------------------
I liked those as well and Mighty Mouse, Betty Boop, and the RoadRunner and the Coyote. I never really cared for the Mickey Mouse cartoons, but I do find Fantasia very interesting. Chuck Jones was a genius.

As a kid I used to always watch Howdy Doody, but now that I own episodes on DVD I find the production values pretty lame, but as a kid, what did I know. Still the greatest name in kid-shows has to be the Mayor of Doodyville, Mr. Bluster. How could there be one any better for a politician.

 

One of my first records was a Top Cat LP.

 

Scooby Doo. I still watch it.

 

When I was a kid I loved He-Man, Thundercats and Looney Tunes (the shorts from the fifties). Now, as an adult, I see He-Man as an awful piece of badly animated crap, Thundercats as a fond memory, and I'm deeply interested in the Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies universe from all decades (and in MGM, Walter Lantz and UPA shorts too). That golden era of animation was simply marvelous.

 

Foghorn Leghorn
Yosemite Sam
Pepe Le Pew (cherie, come with me to the Casbah!)

 

Hong Kong Phooey comes to mind.

 

Looney Tunes.

 

As a little kid, it was Popeye (brought to me by my Aunt Sally Starr), and then Rocky and Bullwinkle. These days its South Park.

 

Looney Tunes, Rocky and Bullwinkle, Tennessee Tuxedo, Speed Racer, Pink Panther, Schoolhouse Rock, Adam Ant, Secret Squirrel, Rocket Robin Hood, Star Trek TAS and many more.

 

Courageous Cat & Minute Mouse. Felix The Cat. Those two were my favs. Guess I had a cat thing going on then.

 

Sid and Marty croft show....

 

Porky Pig

I guess Rocky and Bullwinkle would be up there too.

I used to like the silent cat and mouse cartoons they'd play weekday mornings before elementary school (channel 7 in NYC).

 

Another classic I forgot about:

 

yea, this was me as a little kid, after a few years I picked up on Jonny Quest
