Ed, Edd, and Eddie
Courage the Cowardly Dog
The Tick.
I really enjoyed the comic book hero shows, and The Tick and Freakazoid were great fun to watch as parodies of the genre.
I was so happy to see The Tick get a couple of seasons as an Amazon show.
I’ll throw in EEK! The Cat in with the hilarious and witty parodies
People have already mentioned SpongeBob, so I will go with Freakazoid and The Tick.
Not my favourite but I’m throwing this out tbere.
Goof Troop
TaleSpin
Gargoyles, Batman The Animated Series, X-Men, Exosquad, Animaniacs, Pinky and the Brain. Liked them equally.
This shouldn’t be the answer because it’s not really for kids. But it is, and will always be, The Simpsons.
Every evening at 6pm on UPN I would watch the Simpsons with my dad. I went from watching and understanding Bart to now watching with my daughter and seeing it through Homer’s eyes.
As a kid, I would always flip on the TV for the evening episode of the Simpsons too haha! Except I swear for me it was 5pm.
I’m EST. Maybe you are central time? Bill Nye was on at 5pm on PBS for me
Then or now?
5 year old me: She-Ra
10 year old me: maybe Bugs Bunny honestly
Adult me: Bluey hands down forever. And my kids like it too.
Robotech
My all time favorite was Robotech, though it has not aged well.
I also went through a lot of Disney in my youth:- Gummi Bears
- Duck tales
- Darkwing Duck
And then there was the smattering of others:
- Dungeons and Dragons
- Thundercats
Robotech
Blew my little mind away
Arabian Nights. The adventures, Jeenie, Magic carpet, Abu, and everything was awesome.
Rugrats Marsupilami Spider-Man Gargoyles
Not tv cartoons, but cartoons either way: Mortadelo y Filemón Astérix
Transformers, robotech, thunder cats, M.A.S.K, starcom.
For a shameless toy commercial cartoon, MASK had a pretty slappin intro theme
SpongeBob
Justice League and Justice League Unlimited
Tiny Toon Adventures, then Animaniacs.
Kinda giving away my age, but Animaniacs was right around the time I just started appreciating characters such as Minerva Mink and Hello Nurse.
