    Sometimes it's nice to reminisce on those carefree childhood days filled with treats & goodies (when we didn't worry about counting calories) and Saturday mornings laying on the couch watching cartoons (while someone ELSE did the laundry). Soooo... here's a toast to the good ol' days.

    What was your favorite cartoon? (Feel free to name more than one)

    Mine was She-Ra - totally cheesy, yes, I know, but I LOVED it. I loved pretending I was her LOL.

    My other favorite was Muppet Babies. I loved it when they would open a closet door or something, and there was a "real" (not animated) monster or scene in there. I thought that was the greatest.

    Yes. I was definately an 80's child ;)

    @ danadelphia - oh yes! Scooby Doo was one of the greatest.. There are so many I loved, it's hard to pick just a few.

    I had far too many, but I was guilty of singing along to Gem and the Holograms with my sister...

    ETA: Does anyone remember Noozles? With Sandy and her "stuffed" koala bears Blinky & Pinky?

    @ okqueenbee- I don't know what brought that show back to my mind, and now the theme music is in my head!

    I also loved David the Gnome. I tried watching some episodes recently. I still love it, but it's a little trippy sometimes...

    @violetveil: David the Gnome was my favorite!!!  My co-workers didn't believe that was a real show!!  I had to show them old Youtube clips to get them to believe.   It's definitely weird looking back now, but I loved Swift the fox!

    Absolutely, without a doubt gotta say Rainbow Brite!  I love the scene in the movie where she wakes up and everyone is singing, lol.  Now I feel like such a dork but I'm totally gonna go watch the movie now.  I also loved She-Ra, Muppet Babies, Adventures of the Little Koala.  Not a cartoon, but also Fraggle Rock, the Muppets, basically anything Jim Henson.  He was the man!

    Edit:  Forgot to add Transformers(can totally thank my brother for that one)  For anyone who watched Transformers as a kid you should check out these hilarious videos:

    All you ladies are so awesome! :) I LOVE all these pics and hearing what cartoons you watched! I'm totally remembering all these shows. I had forgotten some of them like David the Gnome, Gargoyles, Popples & Inspector Gadget :)

    Tailspin, Animaniacs, Thundercats, Rainbow Brite, Fraggles & all Jim Henson's work!

    @ MissDoodles - I loved Jim Henson too - he was just awesome.

    @ Ms. Caniche - thanks for the link! I might have to cave in and buy some of those :P
