Yeah, I'm with you on Tom and Jerry - though there's a golden period, following the prototypical experiments with animations of skanky-looking Tom and rotund, childish Jerry, and before the thing was hijacked by Hanna-Barbera and you got to see the humans' faces.Quote:

If you're talking about grown-up cartoons, I'd recommend Drawn Together - the premise is that cartoon characters from different genres and eras are thrown together in a kinda Big Brother House. It's relentlessly tasteless.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=akAEIW3rmvQThis was my favorite cartoon when I was a kid.
I loved Bugs too, learned all my show tunes from him. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gc2L_7m_4mI
I have to assume that the kids around your way have a dark and rather twisted sense of humour that the adults completely miss. But I'd still like to know what the grown-ups found funny in this....Quote:

The kids have become rather dark and twisted now - being 20 and 16. I bought then Don't Look Now in recognition of this for xmas.

Can't beat the WB Loonie Tunes. Whenever I hear the opening theme I recall a "Revenge of the Nerds" moment in high school. The football jocks had a lousy season one year and the band geeks decided to get even by playing the looney tunes, toon as the football team ran out onto the field at the start of a game.Quote:

Bring back Andy Pandy I say.
Teletubbies always had it over Boobah.Quote:

When I first saw this, when my kids were young - honest, I thought I was having a flashback.
Andy Pandy was good - the first kiddies programme I remember sseeing. I did like The Herbs though.
