Cartoons from the 90 s

The cartoons of the 90 s brought us such shows as The Simpsons, King of the Hill, Family Guy, Futurama, South Park, and Beavis and Butthead. Cartoons yes, but not exactly any that you would want to plop your toddler or preschooler in front of. Probably not even your elementary-age child. Cartoons for adults were the thing of the day.

With Hub TV bringing back some oldies like My Little Pony, Strawberry Shortcake, Pound Puppies, and GIJoe, should any cartoons from the 90 s be brought back? Or are Dora the Explorer and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse here to stay?

“Oldies” but goodies from back when cartoons were mostly found afterschool or on Saturday mornings:

*Gummy Bears Bouncing here and there and everywhere….sing it with me! No? Just me?

The 90's were a golden age of cartoons. We had a blast putting together the 20 best, and we’re sure this list will inspire some discussion. Our only criteria was that the cartoon had to start in the 90's, meaning a couple of very late in the decade entries were still eligible. We did make a small exception for one show, but we think you’ll agree it was warranted. Enjoy!

New York City’s Books of Wonder hosts Sandra Boynton’s first art show. Sandra will be in NYC one day only, this Saturday from noon until 2pm, performing some songs (with Michael Ford, Keith Boynton, Graham Stone and Caitlin McEwan). She will then sign her new book, AMAZING COWS, an homage to old comic book superheroes … and cows. So, come on in to Books of Wonder this Saturday if you are able.

Below: here she is on Fox Business, with host Robert Gray, previewing her gallery show, her timeless appeal, and talking about the future of her work.

After stumbling across a retro cartoon from my childhood, a couple of us decided to trawl through the countless snippets on YouTube from our childhood to find you some gems. Some better than others I am sure, but here is a snippet of each of our top 10. Ok, firstly that is a complete lie. After starting with 10 we couldn’t cut it down. You actually have a massive 12 Retro Cartoons from the 80's.

When you look back, I would still rather watch any of these rather than the tripe that kids today watch. Some crappy Aussie acting or a 12 year old girl on her period. Jeez, where did all the cool stuff go?

No doubt most people may choose a different order, but for us this is pretty damn good!! What do you think? As always let us know in the comments, twitter or facebook.

12. Danger Mouse
Loosely based on James Bond, Danger Mouse is a British super hero / spy who with his best friend Penfold aims to save the world from arch enemy Baron Silas Greenback. Did you also know that many of the characters, including Danger Mouse were voiced by actor David Jason?
