Oh man that takes me back those were the good old days. Even though I'm also 21 I still remember watching cartoons like the old teenage mutant ninja turtles from the 80's G.I. Joe He-Man and the Masters of the Universe Voltron Thundercats SWAT KATS The Pirates of Dark Water Doug when it was on Nickelodeon Ducktales Darkwing Duck Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers Smurfs Godzilla Hey Arnold Angry Beavers Animaniacs! Transformers Tiny Toon Adventures Aladdin the animated series etc. I guess it's like that old saying they just don't make them like they used to and it's sad too because those were some of the greatest cartoons of all time. My favorite part of Animaniacs was the wheel morality man I couldn't get enough of them.

Ok. I agree with you that the old cartoons were better. It was better because we could just watch the cartoons without getting bugged by someone or something as we were young. I believe the reason we find those cartoons unforgettable because it brings back memories and our lost childhood. Have you listened to the senior citizens who go on and on about the good old days, it is something like that. I am 21 myself but I still cannot stop watching cartoons. The times have changed and we have to go on with the tide rather than resisting it, coz you never know when in the future you would be fond of the memories of watching the cartoons of this day.

There are some decent ones out there. I like Futurama myself, and of course the Justice League/Justice League Unlimited series is fantastic(and IMO made for us adults who do remember the Superfriends show). Voltron rocked! The lions, not the vehicle combo thing. Also like Transformers, Thundercats, and GI Joe. I used to watch those all the time.
Favorite Animaniacs episode Yako, Wacko, and Dot end up in Hades, they find out about it, Wacko goes upstairs and grabs a snowball "The poor thing never had a chance" Too funny!

Yes, I agree. I miss all those. They have so many that are really for adults. But I don't even like them & because they are cartoons alot of kids watch them & they're terrible. Do you have Cartoon Networks Boomerang? They have some of the old Cartoons that were good. Hopefully they'll bring some more back on that channel.

Could it be that we've grown out of these shows?
I remember watching Chip n' Dale, Talespin too! They were cool XD

I totally agree. Cartoons these days have nothing but screaming and nonsense. No wonder the kids are super-ultra hyper. Animaniacs told great stories and had great characters. I love Dot's "Cute" song!

Man am I glad you said that!! If it isn't Japanese anime, it's stupid, poor taste stuff that I cannot stand to watch. I like He-Man, She-Ra, the Gummie Bears, Superfriends and my all time favorite is Scooby Doo. I have to get them on DVD if I want to watch them at all. Thank GOD there is someone else out there that feels the same way I do!! Thank you so much!!!!

THANK YOU! I'm younger than you, but I can relate. Actually, I'm12. And if I want to watch entertainment on tv nowadays it's either reruns of Seinfeld or Pimp my Ride. And I'm 12!!!! (Yay voltron! He-man was good for a while...)
