Favourite Cartoons As A Child?

[fw1]

Okay, mine were:

1. Ulysses 31

2. Dungeons and Dragons.

3. Battle of the Planets.

4. The Wacky Races.

5. Bugs Bunny.

I could think of plenty more but that will do for now. Remember that cartoons enjoyed in adulthood don't apply.

[BambinA]

2 tin tin

Bambi

[Tornado]

TV - Prince Planet, Herculoids, Spaaaaaaaaaaaace Ghooooooooost, Marine Boy, Scooby Doo and The Flinstones.

The Rocky and Bullwinkle show. In grade school I plagiarized one of their stories and got an 'A'. This is probably my all time favorite and each week the show was a compilation of about 4 different cartoons. Remember Mr. Peabody with his pet boy Sherman? Remember the Wayback Machine...it was a time machine. Remember Fractured Fairytales?...each week they did a spoof of a fairytale...great stuff. Boris Badenoff and Natasha....Fearless Leader

If you count animated full length movies then of course 'Bambi'....and the sequel 'Bambi meets Godzilla' which was a short..not full length.

Road Runner cartoons were great too....and there was one they didn't make too many of called Buzzy Buzzard....Yosemite Sam was pretty hot too but they didn't make many. Betty Boop was good...but all of those were really old even by the time I saw them.

And don't forget The Little Rascals....also called Our Gang or sometimes Spanky and Our Gang. It wasn't a cartoon but had a sort of cartoon quality to it. It was a series of short adventures involving a group of kids during the depression era. These too were all really old by the time I viewed them but were very popular with my cohort...true classics....

Rocky and Bullwinkle....Upsadaysium...(Upsadaysium may be spelled wrong. It was the only element lighter than air, so the Upsadaysium mine floated around and had to be tied down with a rope, or it would just float away.)

The title of that great episode in which Bullwinkle fell out of a balloon.He went plumetting to the ground. The announcer said,"Stay tuned for our smashing episode next week....The End Of A Long Fall..... or ......That's Me All Over"

Well maybe you had to be there.

And there was a popular announcer on a TV talk show called Durwood Kirby, so the Rocky and Bullwinkle show went looking for the Kirwood Derby.

Yeh, you had to be there, I guess.

I'd underline Fred Quimby and all of the above, including Donald Duck and Pluto.

It's curious, but apart from Scooby Doo, I havn't heard of any of the cartoons suggested by other posters.

Have we British lived a sheltered life?

... as all whisky drinkers know - age is not a disadvantage, but rather a quality that seperates the ladds from the lassies, so to speak.

ah, forgot dangermouse, that was quality, and dogtanian and the three muskateers had the best tune for a cartonn series, but it always p.issed me off when in the opening scenes where he threw an apple up in the air, cut it vertically with his sword but when it floated down it was cut horizontally. I'm over it now though.

[majush]

I think nobody else here is old enough to remember him.

[Old Croc]

Crusader Rabbit!

Eh?

I threw this in to see if anyone knew of it. You have to be as old as the hills (or an old croc) to remember. It was the first tv program I ever saw. The first channel to open in Perth used to play it as a test broadcast before they officially opened. I would have been about 8yo.
