Shows you remember fondly, and shows you wish you could erase from memory?

[MegaHiro91]

While I don't need all childrens programming to be dark and serious, I have always believed that children deserve good quality shows that give them something of value; a good story, good morals, stuff to think about etc. But sometimes as a kid you just watched stuff because it was on and the TV acted like a magnet to your eyeballs. So what are some shows you take with you from back then and will defend for all eternity, and some you regret having ever let into your concious?

Before I come with my own examples, I'll stress that we should keep it civilized and constructive. We are not here to bash each others childhood, if some hate something someone else hold dear, or vice versa. We all have different tastes, morals, and values, so if I dislike something you don't, it ain't a personal attack.

Also, to add a bit of fun, try to summarize your shows in ONE sentence, boiling it down to the bare basics.

Some shows I loved:
Jumanji - Kids going on dangerous adventures in a magic malicious jungle.
Redwall - Woodland critters on epic adventures in medieval time
Fantastic Voyages of Sinbad the Sailor - Two adventurous youths and their cat on seafaring voyages
Jackie Chan - Exciting martial arts adventures with Jackie-boy who fights demons
Noah's Island - The daily misadventures of the animals on a stray island hoping to find paradise
Rugrats - The world seen through the imaginary eyes of toddlers and the protag who is way mature for his age
Ed, Edd n Eddy - Misadventures of a money-scheming trio who always comically get their just deserts
Sonic X - Speedy blue hedgehog on the hunt for magic gemstones while fighting bad guys

Some shows I hated:
Franklin - Everyday life of an insufferable selfish young turtle boy with no social morals
Angelina Ballerina - Mouse girl dancing ballet who is always mean to her younger brother
Amanda Anaconda - Schoollife of girl who uses her imagination to grill people she dislikes
Kim Possible - Insufferable teenage girl who saves the world but can't stand when others surpass her
Foster's Home - Daily life of a ragtag bunch of ugly ass misfits that look like rejects from other cartoons
Fanboy & Chumchum - The title alone sounds like they had no ideas
Flapjack - Ugly ass artstyle

What're some of yours?

Noah's Island - The daily misadventures of the animals on a stray island hoping to find paradise

Ojski pojski! This one was THE SHIT. It was essentially Lost with talking animals. I remember being really fascinated by how much character drama the show had.
Kickass theme song too:

As for myself (and not counting Moomin)? Out of the ones I loved as a kid my favorite is probably Recess. I loved how it took kids seriously, and how it sort of portrayed life on the schoolyard in a sort of heightened reality setting. Also really liked the dingy and timeless artstyle it had going for it. (Sorry I missed the one sentence rule as I was typing this out!)

A few others I really liked growing up:
EEnE - It's like the inverse of Recess which is probably why I love it so much, too, because it's just whacky kid hijinx turned up to 11.
Kim Possible - I liked the superhero fusion of Teenage Girl + James Bond, and it had a really great cast of supporting characters and villains.
Lilo & Stitch - Guessing what new experiment would appear every week was lots of fun, and it looked great and had really funny writing with lots of running jokes and good moments.
Digimon - I don't have a lot of specific memories of it but I remember that me, my brother and my mom would get up and watch it early all the time, and I love Digimon so it must've made its mark somehow.
Bear in the Big Blue House - When I was really small, I remember loving how he sort of interacted with the viewer so much.

A few I couldn't stand:
Teacher's Pet - Ugly disgusting artstyle with really shitty grossout humor and a scary vibe.
Cramp Twins - Also insanely ugly, and really fucking loud and obnoxious.
Fairly OddParents - Ugly, stupid, loud. The American one was probably wittier but definitely got lost in translation.
Rugrats - Gross toddlers made grosser by the Klasky Csupo style (I like Klasky Csupo as an adult though), which really scared me as a kid.
Cow & Chicken - Too gross for me, but I like the animation style as an adult.
Seaside Hotel - Some boring cartoon that always aired on Swedish summer holiday TV with a really ugly artstyle.
SpongeBob - Heresy, I know, but I found it to be ugly and really weird.

In general I'm not a huge Nickelodeon fan. As a kid I always found them to be either too loud, too crass, or too weird.
