This post is simply The Truth.
It's amazing how much BETTER 90's cartoons were than the current crop of shows. You listed many of the more mature cartoons, but we also had light hearted classics such as
-RECESS
-Doug
-Animaniacs
-Arthur (PBS represent!)
Every Saturday was an event for me. Many times I'd wake up as early as possible and then sneak downstairs; it would be so early that Golden Girls and Star Trek TNG would be on, and I'd still watch them. Eventually the cartoon block would start with more obscure stuff like Sailor Moon and this awesome Sonic cartoon that was considerably darker than the more popular Sonic and Tails show. I remember Garfield would also come on around this time. Then FINALLY the stuff I really wanted to see would start. The Batmans, Supermans, etc. Around this time the Pokemon show would be on too, which I thought was amazing at the time.
Remember Goosebumbs? That would come on in the early afternoon once the cartoons were basically off. Aww man. Then around 3pm I'd turn to UPN to watch Outer Limits, which was omg amazing to me. I'd end my TV binge by watching Hercules and Xena Warrior Princess.
OMG THE MEMORIES
Anyone else remember this shit? :lol

is X-men on dvd or going to be? I had a bunch of eps on vhs back in the day.

ren and stimpy
Aw what the fuck dude?
i'm pretty fucking sure david the gnome was european
Yeah, you're right. But dagnabbit, it's my sworn duty as a red blooded Amerikaan to claim it for the U.S of A. Long live imperialism!
-
you don't like ren and stimpy? it's the funniest goddamn animation i've ever seen. you could watch sven hoek with the sound off and kill yourself laughing. i love ren and stimpy
i don't think you're allowed to dislike ren and stimpy and like rocko's modern life (or any of those r+s derivatives) -- i actually used to argue about this with my roommate in college. that heretic would be really into cow and chicken or something, but he didn't like ren and stimpy. wtf
-
I love a few episodes like the one where they go to the museum and that tour guide's making up a bunch of shit about how the dinosaurs died and whatnot. But my major issue is that I'm not really a fan of gross out humor, and R&S really crossed the line pretty much..all the time.
Btw, have you seen the short lived new series that came out on Spike a few years ago?
-
i was really excited about the spike tv episodes, but you want to talk about crossing the line with grossout humor...yeah. spumco did better work when they were pushing against the boundaries of children's tv. let them loose and it's just an unfunny torrent of shit and buggery and tits and violence. actually there was one really good episode from that new series, where ren sees a psychiatrist or something

The Tick
Ghostbusters
Wow I can't believe I forgot about those. That Ghostbuster animated cartoon was amazing. Couldn't get enough of that cartoon.

These are the cartoons I watched religiously as a kid:
TMNT
Batman:TAS
Animaniacs
Tiny Toons :bow
Ducktales
Centurions
Johnny Quest (not the CG one)
Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers
Darkwing Duck
Tail Spin
X-Men
When I was in middle school, I started watching Recess. I thought that was a terrific show and pretty underrated.
And I could never get into the Nickelodeon cartoons like Rugrats, Ren and Stimpy, Rocko's Modern Life. I just thought they didn't really compare to Animaniacs or Tiny Toons.
And Superman:TAS sucked. BATMAN 4 LIFE

Anything by Tex Avery
The B&W Popeye cartoons where he mutters a lot and is kind of an asshole
Tom & Jerry pre-1960
Private Snafu WWII propaganda cartoons
The 1940s Fleischer Superman Cartoons
The Porky Pig & Daffy Duck team-ups from the old Looney Tunes

how old are you to watch that stuff as your main cartoons as a child?
-
Yeah, they never showed those on TV or anything, we paid our nickels for our movie tickets and our dimes for a popcorn and glass bottled cokes and sat in the balcony watching them between the latest chapter of a cliffhanger and a movietone newsreel...

hahaha lovely sarcasm
yes popeye and looney tunes were on tv but WWII propaganda and fleisher superman cartoons? I dont know of any tv channel that aired that stuff. And the B&W stuff you mentioned rarely was on, it was mostly color episodes in re-runs.
-
They showed a lot of B&W off-the-wall stuff on USA Night Flight, and on Showtime/Cinemax (even HBO, sometimes) they used to show rarer cartoons between movies.

I watched season 1 of xmen today. I forgot how awesome it was.

Quit hate-in dawg. :punch
I mean, yeah the animation is pretty shitty nowadays, but the story was da shiznite.
Also, a show that no one mentioned yet, fucking MIGHTY MAX. Pretty stupid sounding plot, but they made it work, and was one of the most surprisingly dark cartoons I've seen so far.
-
I liked those Mighty Max toys as a kid but the show was always on so dang early that I never saw it.

You little fuckers don't know how good you had it. '90s animation was pretty decent, especially compared to the crap we had to put up with in the '80s.
JEM
CARE BEARS
CAMP CANDY....Yes, that's right, a cartoon with late comedian John Candy as the head of a camp filled with mischievous youngsters. :puke
At least we had some awesome stuff...
Thundercats
Silverhawks
Transformers
Mazinger Z
Grandizer
M.A.S.K.
Brave Star (or however it was spelled)
C.O.P.S. - Fighting Crime...in a Future Time!
-
oh yeah. and swat kats was the shit

80's cartoons outside a select few always seemed somewhat more shitty compared to early 90's. Early 90's had some awesome comedy based cartoons for kids. The Spielberg produced WB stuff (Tiny Toons, Animanicas..etc) was all 100% class and it had Nick' cartoons at their high (Rocko, Doug, Rugrats...etc).
I might just be nostalgia talking though. :-\
