movies/tv What was your favourite TV show as a child?

[Harmony Spark 265]

I'm going to ask one question: what was your favourite show and if you had the chance of watching it, will you enjoy it or dump it? Cause nostalgic shows are the foundations of childhood, like Connect 4 or G.I. Joe toys. So what show was your personal best when you were young?

 

(My favourite show was Beatrix Potter Stories, god those were my LIFE!!!)

[Moonlight 7,287]

My personal favorite was Pokemon. I still watch the newer episodes. It's awesome to me, I also played the games and such, still do. 

That or My Little Pony (I despise the old ones now.)

[Fluttashy 325]

I loved a lot of 80s cartoons like Rainbow Brite, Strawberry Shortcake, and Care Bears. I was also a big fan of MLP G1. I also watched Pokemon and Digimon. Oh but I would say sailor moon was my number one favorite.

[Sickman 205]

My number one favourite was probably Pokémon, but I was also a huge fan of Batman: The Animated Series, Animaniacs, Sailor Moon, Powerpuff Girls, Rugrats, and Dexter's Lab.

My favorite TV show as a child can't really be defined by just 1 show. But, I will just cut to the chase and say just one show that I thought was my favorite TV show, it would have to be Pokemon.

[Cwanky 17,598]

Mr. Roger's neighborhood for sure. I can't explain it but there was something hypnotizing about watching those "factory videos" where they show you how things are made or done. Also Fred Rogers was one of the wisest, sincerest, and most kindhearted individuals I've seen on TV. Its hard to find people like him again.

 

Pokemon, particularly the Kanto and Johto regions were always fun to watch. Brock with his womanizing antics and wisdom. Misty being the hothead and consistently bashing in her friends' skulls, and Ash being the total doofus and moron he still is. Gym battles and the Indigo battles were always the best. Batman the Animated Series was classic and Jackie Chan Adventures tops a lot of his films now.

 

Also Simpsons. Motherf****** Simpsons. Every other line that Homer spoke was a punchline back then.

Your favorite TV show seems to constantly change as the years go by, so it's quite difficult to give a definite answer.

 

Avatar: The Last Airbender is definitely one of my favorites. Wonderfully written cartoon. In my humble opinion, it's Nickelodeons best program BY FAR.

I remember watching Magic School Bus a lot when I was a kid, I think it was before I was even learning science in school yet.

 

I sometimes find myself watching it again though, it is so memorable and nostalgic!

 

 

Another memorable one I can think of at the top of my head is Video and Arcade Top 10.

 

Even though it was a game show of people playing video games, the prizes seemed to kinda suck, even though I was too young to understand that.

Pokemon would definitely be up there as one of my favorite TV show as a kid but I also enjoyed Spongebob, Hey Arnold, Rugrats, Are you afraid of the dark ?, Starship Troopers Chronicles and many more . 

[Dark Moon 965]

I was a 90's/00's child so Spongebob of course. Back in its prime that show was fracing hilarious. I never got into Pokemon or Power Rangers like most.

[Celtore 2,770]

I'm going to go with "grade 1-3" years to determine my favourite TV show.

 

Still... UGH! What a decision! It was either Medabots or Digimon. I really loved the humour of Medabots and I liked the idea of a show with fighting sentient robots. Some of the localization was a bit weird (the octopus ball episode), but I thought the weirdness made it even more funny.

 

I enjoyed Digimon as well for fairly obvious reasons. The action scenes were fantastic, there was a genuine threat (as opposed to the bumbling Jessy and James) and I enjoyed the story. I first watched it because I thought it was Pokemon, but it turned out I liked this show more.

 

HONORABLE MENTIONS:

 

Mr. Roger's Neighbourhood: A fantastic show that fell outside the age group I used. Fred continues to be my role model to this day.

 

The Magic School Bus: because SCIENCE! This was a fantastic show that made us kids interested in science. My favourite episode was the one where Mr. Ruhle get's a computer and they explore the inside of it. Or wait... maybe it was the pinball one... The energy episode? Oh no! I can't decide!

 

Pippy Longstocking (animated): The only "girly" show I ever enjoyed until My Little Pony. I never admitted watching it but it was one of those few shows I never wanted to miss.

[Lulamoon 18]

Pokemon, Spongebob, Fairly OddParents, Powerpuff Girls, Dexter's Laboratory, Justice League and Avatar: The Last Airbender.

My two favorites however were Courage the Cowardly Dog and The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy. They were so lovably dark

 

[Wonderbolt_Spitfire 235]

Some of my Favorite shows as a kid were 'Mighty Morphin Power Rangers', 'Yu-Gi-Oh', 'Legends of the Hidden Temple (Best Show)', 'Doug', 'Hey Arnold' & 'Catdog'. There were many more that I could think of if I decided to really list them all, but those are my top and most memorable ones.

[Iridescent Quill 70]

Ha, I was the youngest of four so I watched alot of older shows so I remember saying that married with children was my favorite. But I also loved Arthur, rugrats, magic school bus, bill Nye the science guy, Doug. Such good shows.

[Sweet Dreams 1,893]

My favorites when I was younger were Pokemon and Spongebob, but I only ever watched the older ones of those, because I have always liked them better. I sometimes watch Pokeon to this day, but I always avoid the new ones.

[Korven 10]

My favorite show was Sonic the hedghog. Not the first one, the other when they're living in a forest and fighting Dr. Robotnik from the shadows. I watched it a couple of years ago, and I still enjoyed it. My favorite character is Robotnik.

Jim Cummings is an insane voice actor.

[Clockwork Chaos 219]

Dragon Ball Z, all the way! (recently watched it through again, and don't regret it for a second)

other than that i watched things like Gundam, Ed, Edd, & Eddy, Bayblade, Pokemon, Digimon...

 

boy, i watched a lot of cartoons growing up...

[Raiden21 804]

Avatar: The Last Airbender, Spongebob, Fairy Oddparents, Dragon Ball Z, Rugrats, Arthur, and the Simpsons. My favorite show overall has to be Avatar: The Last Airbender. The show has great writing, action, well developed characters, and a great storyline. I need to go watch it again.

[The Man 11]

That feel when I never watched Mister Rogers' Neighbourhood as a child.

All I could see on tv was shit like Pokemon (best show ever, lel), Transformers and that kinda action crap.

Winnie The Pooh was one of my favourites, still watch it sometimes for that great fuzzy and warm nostalgic feel :3

[Cookie Fudge 6]

Well as many others I loved pokémon, and I still do today...
But now I think Ash is the biggest moron I ever seen on television, compared to his comrades of the first season.

[RandomName 28]

Any cartoon that aired in the late 90's or early 2000's. I was at the end of the golden age of cartoons. Some favorites of mine would have to be Spongebob, The Fairy Odd Parents, The Powerpuff Girls, Pokemon, and a ton more.

[DaReaper 1,945]

, i loved Inspector gadget when i was younger, and the transformers when megatron turned into a gun not the weak sauce tabk or whatever now

That bout tops my list in truth for my fav cartoons.

[StarStreak 28]

My favourite was Pokemon...Still is one of my favs, not gonna lie MLP is my favourite now as you could probably guess...heh come to think of it I love both shows equally.

[AnonyPoni 564]

Arthur. That show is sooooo boss and still is.

 

Also, most of the other shows I really cared about when I was younger generally had to do with martial arts it seemed. Dragon Ball (Z), TMNT, Transformers, Jackie Chan Adventures. You know, the good stuff
