Hellz Yah...That was one of my favorite cartoons when I was a kid...It was so odd and abstract compared to most...I used to love the theme song too...That was such an underrated cartoon....
Ren and Stimpy and
DangerMouse too...
I loved cartoons so much it's almost impossible for me to just pick one as the greatest...But I can remember that when I came from school I used to love watching USA networks Cartoon Express with
TMNT, Huckleberry hound, Snaglepuss, Hong kong Phuey and all the rest...But my favorite cartoons used to be hybrid-animes (US-Japanese collabs) like
Transformers, G.I. JOE, Silverhawks, G.E.M., Thundercats (Thank Toonami for bringing that show back to me it really got me back into cartoons)....And I can't forget
He-man and the Masters of the Universe which I was merely a servant to it's greatness...
As I got a little older and started to care more about girls and football I stopped watching Cartoons like I used to, but I would always watch episodes of 90's
Batman the animated series (Which is perhaps one of the greatest modern cartoons ever),Spiderman, and X-men because at that time they seemed more adult...I also loved those adult cartoons like
Heavy Metal (which I bought on VHS at a thrift store recently^^) and
Fritz the Cat....
The best old school cartoon of all time has to be
Johnney Quest...That show was so far ahead of it's time and most of the animation totally stands the test of time...The level of adventure was so dope...The background drawings, portrait-esque scenery and futuristic concepts were really dope considering this is some early 60's cartoon...Before Hanna & Barabara
SOLD THEIR SOULS to make 5,000 crappy animated shows (even ones I liked like
Daredevil and Butch CassidyXD) they proved with Quest they were truley great once..."Sim, sim, Zalla bin..." (Haji says something like that
)
There are some even lesser known cartoons that were great anyone remember:
Tigersharks, The Littles, EXO-Squad, New Adventures of Peter Pan, and GALAXY HIGH (Used to love that show it was like the last cartoon that came on Saturday Mornings on CBS right before CBS storybook; after G-high was over that was it for a great Saturday Morning)...Tell me sombody remembers how dope Galaxy High was?
Well in short I was and am a
toonaphile...Don't tell anyone because that's morally wrong XD...
