Today’s cartoons have lost something. Smooth and bright and random, they lack a certain grittiness that characterized the animation and stories of ‘90s toons. Here’s the top 11 to fill our impressionable young minds before the turn of the millennium. Read the list, then fire up Netflix or YouTube and relive these brilliant classics with a level of appreciation unattainable when you turned on the T.V. after hopping off the school bus over 15 years ago.
11. Johnny Bravo
Watching Johnny Bravo rattle of his cheesy one-liners for hot mamas and get painfully rejected over and over was hilarious, but ultimately misleading – in real life, the muscley douchebag airhead always gets the girl to come home and do the monkey with him.
I was Plank Pledge during I-week and couldn’t address actives without saying “Plank says ….” I tried to pass it down a few semesters ago and the pledges didn’t understand the reference. PGP.
Stupid fucking pledges. That show was on until like 2009. No excuse for not seeing it. Your pledge educator sounds like a genius, by the way.
How do you leave Recess off the list?!
EXACTLY! Classic.
Couldn’t agree more. I’d also say Arthur.
Who the hell watched Arthur?
That was the first thing I thought, too
I feel AHHHH!! Real Monsters should have cracked this list
I wished there was some recognition for the justice friends from dexter’s lab in this.
Some of the problems of today’s youth I blame on bad cartoon networking.
Dexter’s Lab is too high and Rocko too low. One thing we can agree on: the 90s had some kickass cartoons.
I never understood why Dee Dee’s feet squished when she walked.
While I do agree with hey arnold being #1.. no angry beavers? or pinky and the brain?
Beavis and Butthead…come on!
