Subject: Best Cartoons of the 90s
Reading the ren & stimpy topic a few places below gave me this idea...
10. Rugrats
09. Pokemon
08. The Critic
07. Family Guy
06. Animaniacs
05. Lion King
04. Powerpuff Girls
03. Ren & Stimpy
02. Beavis & Butthead
01. The Simpsons
Let me know what you think :)
Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
I liked The Family Guy, and I love Rugrats. I don't know if this counts, but I love Spongebob Squarepants. I don't remember when it came out, but I watch it with my daughter and we both just laugh. Actually, I just like to watch cartoons. ;D
Welcome to the board, BTW! :)
Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
Cartoons and childrens programs on the TV even today give me a chance to catch up on my mis-spent youth. To wit, I spent my childhood watching The Raggy Dolls (Remember that? # Raggy dolls, raggy dolls, dolls like you and me #), and Wizadora (# Wizadora #). Anyone that ever lived in England knows the ones I am talking about... they were cool... having said that, these were childrens programs rather than animation shows. As for animation cartoons, I loved the Animaniacs, The Simpsons, and (as soon as I managed to get into it) Rugrats. Took me too long, though, and by the time I liked it, I was too old.

I like the Simpsons, Beavis & BH, and the Rugrats...but REN AND STIMPY AND SPONGEBOB ARE THE BEST TWO! (edited cuz the sentence didn't make any sense)
Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
Disney's "The Lion King" was the best cartoon of the 90s. But seriously, I liked "King of the Hill" the first year it was on. Then it just became mean-spirited. I really don't watch the newer cartoons anymore.
Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
I just watch "The Simpsons" for the most part. The best of the 90's, IMO.
I see "Recess" (is that 90's or 00's?) once in a while because It's pretty funny and entertaining without the mean spirit and violence of some of the other cartoons nowadays. It's a good one to have in the afternoon time slot for the kids, for sure.
Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
I forgot to mention Dragonball Z... that became a big name in the 90s, so i think I would rank that as #11. If there was a tv special like this, their list might be different, but my choices may be on there. :P
Also, to Hairspray, Recess was 1997.
Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
I can think of two cartoons that were great, Duckman and Rocko's Modern Life. We actually had a turtle that we named Filbert because that was the turtle's name on Rocko.
Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
Spongebob Squarepants!!!!
Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s

Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
You've gotta mention great cartoons like "X-Men", "Gargoyles", and "Exo Squad".
Also, don't forget "Tiny Toons" and "Animaniacs".
Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
Oh Goof Troop... I loved that show ;D
Rocko's Modern Life was real cool......but where has it gone now? Have they taken it off the air ???
Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
Crikey. You lot know some good toons. Out of the ones mentioned, The Pinky And The Brain and The Powerpuff Girls are my faves.

Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
:)Anyone remember the "Sonic the Hedgehog" cartoons?There was the daily cartoon which was funny and the Saturday morning one which was more indepth and had all the Mobius inhabitants. The weekday 'toon was my Sonic fix. Not only were Sonic(voice by Jaleel'Urkel' White) and his pal Tails absolutely funny,the fat idiot Robotnik and his two robotic goons, Scratch the Chicken and Grounder were a laugh riot with their various plots to try and capture the blue hedgehog that all FAILED!! And by the way,Robotnik's infamous rant at the end of every episode-"I HATE THAT HEDGEHOG!! >:("]

I have a Sonic stuffed toy that is on my computer desk with all my Beanie Baby cats.I got it at a store that sells collectibles. The funniest Sonic episode was the one with the country singer who writes a song about him!
"Sonic the Hedgehog,you can't catch what you can't see!
Sonic the Hedgehog,he's gonna make Mobius free!"
BTW,I think Robotnik weighs a ton! :PAnd Tails is a cute little fella too!

Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
oh and i know this was an 80s cartton but showed alot in the 90s and still does a pup named scooby doo and the flintstone kids and spongebob is more of a cartoon of today
Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
Animaniacs was absolutely, positively my FAVORITE cartoon in the '90's. I even bought their album. ::)
Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
I don't think Family Guy should be on the list. It came out in 1999. It's more of a early 00's cartoon show. The same can be said about Spongebob.
Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
Sagwa(the Chinese Siamese Cat)is a cool cartoon. Being on PBS,it is not a dumb cartoon like SOME network entertainment. Rather it teaches kids stuff like getting along with others,not being bigoted,and respecting parents and others in authority. Also,I love Siamese cats,and Sagwa looks so pretty!

Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
I remember a cartoon in the early nineties called Fender Bender 500 and it was an 'update' of the Wacky Races formula involving Hanna Barbera characters. Has anybody else seen it?
Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
There was briefly a cartoon (late 90's I think)called NASCAR Racers-has anyone heard of it? Why was it taken off the air,being that NASCAR was popular back then too? As for a cartoon that bombed big time-HAMMERMAN(MC Hammer's toon on ABC!)
Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s

Technically the Simpsons are 80's. They first appeared on the Tracy Ulman show in 1987, and the series started in 1989. If people are selective on what is and what isn't 80's and 90's on other TV shows and movies (like Full House, Family Matters) then why not the Simpsons?

That may be true, but it was on in the 90s, was it not? And it's still on today, right? :)

I think I remember that show, even though I never watched it. If I'm not mistaken, it was on ABC? And I think it was short-lived (i.e., it wasn't on for very long).
Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
Whoa! I'd forgotten about Aeon Flux.
I've not posted on here for about 20 months, but I'm still getting the email notifications. How cools that!
Aeon Flux
The Tick
Animaniacs
The Real Ghostbusters - were they early 90s? I hope so.
Beavis and Butthead.
All classics in my opinion.
Subject: Re: Best Cartoons of the 90s
My friends and i can not figure out the name for two 90's cartoon shows that we remember faintly in our heads. One was something that had to do with a kid named Max. He had a red baseball cap that he would have on backwards. We remember him being sold at Mcdonalds a while back and he was the boy version of Pollypockets. The second one is the big mystery for us, we remember a kid riding his little tricycle around his house in the begginning of the show and it would turn into an airplane or something. If you remember the names of any of these shows please email me at gjauerbach@comcast.net
thanks

How come the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles haven't got a mention?
That is definately my favourite cartoon of all time.
