I think its mostly about 'saturday morning' style cartoons....Family Guy / Simpsons, are more like animated Sitcoms ( that kick more ass than an angry farmer !! )

Right, Family guy is a prime time show. It's certainly animated, but targeting adults instead of children.
 
Does anyone remember Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors?

It was about a guy with skunk stripe in his hairdo traveling around in a spaceship looking for his father. There were these plantlike aliens always out to get him. The aliens could for some reason transform into cars and Jayce and his pals would battle them with their funky space cars.

Did that make any sense ?? :boggled:

Anyway the quality of the show was high but it was a little slow and sad. Also I dont think there was any toy line so it seems to have been forgotten by most people.

Apparently some of the episodes were written by J. Michael Straczynski of Babylon 5 and Spiderman fame.
 
Anyone Remember Tranzor Z? Man, that was such a cheesy cartoon. But I watched each episode none the less....heh heh.
 
When I was a kid (which was for most of the 80's) I watched...
Transformers
MASK
GI Joe
Swat Cats
SMURFS<--Probably my fave
Gummi Bears
Teenaged Mutant Ninja Turtles
Thundercats
Scooby Doo(Scooby Doo what? Scooby smoke weed.)
Looney Toons
The Pirates of Dark Water
He-Man and the Masters of the Universe
Duck Tales
Tale Spin

There were many more that fail to come to mind.....

Thank you! I was talking about cartoons yesterday with some friends here at work, and we couldn´t remember the name of this one. I watched that a lot too when I was a kid.
 
Gummi Bears reminds those of us that have been attentive in our cartoon watching that Rob Paulsen and Michael Bell were in almost every cartoon ever made in or produced for a US audience.

Remember, Handy Smurf says to buy Zales diamond jewelry.
 
Wow, it's interesting to see the difference in cartoons between North America and Britain. I've never even heard of 80% of the shows you Britts are on about!
 
We had alot of N.A, European and our own cartoons aswell. There were some great cartoons made over here in the 80's/early 90's, but they are all gone now (poor kids of today).
