They don’t make cartoons like the used to. After buying the complete series of Captain N, the Game Master on DVD, it made me start thinking about other cartoons I remember watching when I was growing up. Here are my personal favorite top 10 awesome old cartoons.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Captain N, the Game Master
He-man and the Masters of the Universe
The Legend of Zelda
The Super Mario Brothers Super Show
Transformers
Hulk Hogan’s Rockin’ Wrestling
Earthworm Jim
Inspector Gadget
Beatlejuice
Why don’t they make cartoons like this anymore? Maybe they hold a special spot with me for nostalgia reasons alone. I would dare to say though that this list would stand up to any list of new cartoons out there, any day of the week… even Saturday morning!
Earthworm JIM?WTF?!Where the hell is G.I JOE?!?!
lol, sorry – never did like GI JOE much – other than Sargent Slaughter.
I’ll give ya Transformers and raise you Scooby Doo and Johnny Quest – the real one, not that lame a$$ remake.

God I am old…lmao. But I rest my case, these cartoons made me the man I am today. I watched a lot of TV and I turned out TV.
I’ve GOT to throw Ghostbusters out there…. CLASSIC!
For the record I just posted my 10… although it includes two from the 90’s that were GREAT! Tiny Toons and Animaniacs… gotta love them.
Damn, I forgot all about Ghostbusters! Ok, that does deserve a spot there.
