I never understood GI Joe. I hated Captain Planet, but watched it anyway. Also there was some computer-animated thing where the characters were inside a giant computer? I couldn't freaking STAND that show.

Back in the day (the 80s and early 90s) my dad and I woke up Sunday mornings, ates doughnuts, and watched:

Roadrunner and CoyoteBugs BunnyFoghorn LeghornTom and JerryScooby Doo

And I remember enjoying The Animaniacs BIG TIME!

I loved Transformers....It was awesome.

Speed racer when I was very young. My mom says when Speed Racer was on NOTHING could drag me away from TV.

Bugs Bunny is the most classic off all time.

I liked Speed Buggy too.

The Thundercats was cool, I thought the female was hot.:D

Voltron....the one with the 5 lions was one of my favs too.

Yea I watched alot of tv when I was young.

Anyone remember the LAFF-Olympics? Three teams battling it out, the Scooby-Doobies, Yogi Yahooes, and the Really Rottons. I loved that show. Here is link.. http://www.scoobydooweloveyou.com/laff.html

get240dizzy, it was Mark Summers. I remember reboot too, that show was ahead of its time.

but i remember as a kid i watched Ghost Writer all the time on pbs. what a great show packed with drama, comedy, and high sexual tension. well maybe not, but it was a damn cool show.

too many to list

I have fond memories of GI Joe, Transformers, M.A.S.K., The Real Ghostbusters, and Zelda when they showed it on Fridays instead of mario (though it rocked too)

Oh, and He-Man, I used "mark out" for him all the freakin' time!

it's kinda painful to watcht the old eps now though:(

I remember watching this claymation show called Davey and Goliath. No body I talk to remembers this show. About some kind and his dog. The dog acts as Davey's conscious when he is doing things wrong.

Mark Summers has OCD, being on Double Dare must have been a bit stressful.
