SpongeBob SquarePants (1999)
Very imaginative to the point of being too trippy for kids. Are they underwater or aren't they? Nobody knows for sure.

The Real Ghostbusters (1986)
Based on the movie characters, where Slimer is a kind of mascot or pet. A great 80's cartoon for all ages.
mcdean's rating:
Godzilla: The Series (1998)
A very good cartoon version of the American remake. Great drawing, good animation and a variety of monsters that the late 90's movie lacked.
mcdean's rating:
Johnny Bravo (1997)
A quirky cartoon hit from the company that brought the Flintstones and Scooby Doo. With the voice of Elvis and the karate chop movements, Johnny Bravo rules!
mcdean's rating:
South Park (1997)
The great satirical cartoon of all satirical cartoons. These guys have guts and aren't afraid to offend but don't just set out to offend. There is a difference.
mcdean's rating:
The Yogi Bear Show (1961)
A cornball but loveable cartoon. Classic voice work, with the perennial sidekick BooBoo.
mcdean's rating:
Birdman (1967)
A little known classic, a galaxy of superheroes including shape shifting globs/ghosts if my memory serves me right.
mcdean's rating:
Here we get a clean cut Hercules, and two fantastic villains in Devilus and Wilemena. And who can for ]get Newton and little Toot. The first and best Hercules cartoon, great music in the action scenes and when Devilus is planning evil plots.

The New Scooby-Doo Movies (1972)
Scooby has been redone so many times in cartoon I lost count. A lot of people hate Scrappy Doo but I don't think that's entirely fair. He could hold a show on his own.
mcdean's rating:
Really crappy music and cheesy stories. And of course Hot Dog dancing to their sugary hits is just so cheesy you have to like it. You hear a lot of the Archies in todays music believe it or not. The cartoon band that wasn't real that had the #1 hit single of the late turbulent 60's!

Satire in cartoon was born with Rocky and Bullwinkle. Natasha and Boris were the cold war villains, Peabody and Sherman gave history lessons with a jab in the ribs, and the Fairy Tales that always went splat! Animation so bad that you didn't care.
mcdean's rating:
Great animation because the show was made up of movie shorts. Merry Melodies and Looney Tunes were disgruntled Disney animators answer to Mickey Mouse and Daffy Duck. What they did was far superior, satire and wit and I admit violent content, but cartoon violence had no blood and they always bounce back!
mcdean's rating:
The Flintstones (1960)
The original primetime cartoon, and the best. The characters, the art, the stories, and he concept to end all concepts! Season one was gritty with themes of cheating on spouses and burglary and gambling, later seasons introduced Pebbles and Bam Bam (even that episode had Barney wanting to commit suicide). Gazoo, the Hatrocks and Gruesomes were addedlate in the run of the show because they ran out of ideas I guess. Still fresh to watch, timeless...
mcdean's rating:
These are my great cartoons, some are for grownups some are for kids. I love all of these. Crappy animation is a hallmark of the television cartoon, as is killer soundtracks. Great voice talent is a must, and these all have exceptional voice talent, and of course art.
