Trying to think of cartoons I remember that have not been mentioned but all I can recall is 2 non cartoons which were on the Den 'Woof!' With it's annoyingly cheerful theme tune and 'T-Bag' a bit more obscure but I've memories of it.

Woof was the one about the boy who would turn into a dog ya?

T-Bag show was one of my favourite kids tv shows. It started in 1985 and ran to 92 (i think) and centred around finding a hidden artifact in each episode. Powers were gotten from the high T - plant with the baddie being T-bag. Really was a classic show (from what I can remember).

Other kids show was with Rod Hull and Emu with Grot bags. ALways remember him shouting 'somebody at the door'.
Apologies for going OT as these are not cartoons.

Bananaman

Supergran

Danger mouse.

Batfink

Gremlinertia

Count Duckula, the nanny always had a sling but it was like mary poppins carpet bag, anything and everything was contained there :pac:

Yes!

Jamie and the Magic Torch :cool:

Skid X

Captain Caveman, he was a defrosted Caveman who used to go around bashing people with a club. He hung around with the Teen Angels, three hotties who solved mysteries or something

Mainly remembered for him shouting "Captain - Caaaaaveman!" and then laying the smackdown on whoever was up to no good.

PsychoPete

Boomerang was definitely my favourite cartoon channel. Had some of my favourites like Wacky Races, Casper, I am Wesel, Cow & Chicken, Duck Dodgers, Rocky and Bullwinkle, Yogi, Smurfs, Scooby, Huckleberry Hound the list goes on and on

Plumbthedepths

A poster here reminded me of Johnny Bravo, one of the few cartoons I watched in adulthood that made me laugh out loud. I'm an adult a long time physically, mentally I'm not so sure.

I found out about an hour ago that Seth McFarlane was one of the animators on that show.

As well as Cow and Chicken, Dexter's Laboratory and I Am Weasel.
I watched all of those as an adult with a younger, but I enjoyed them too.

Skyknight

Bit before my time
Tarzan : Lord of the Jungle

I have a feeling the animators used rotoscoping in it production

The Space Sentinels

Darksoul

Dungeons & Dragons, Thundercats, Gobots,He-Man, Richie Rich, Top-Cat, Pink Panther, Brave-Starr,Captain Planet.

Used to love dungeons and dragons thought is was so ahead of its time and Thundercats was unreal.

Dungeons and Dragons never (officially) finished.. There was an unfinished episode.
I remember looking it up years later and finding a script online,
This I guess is a fan made comic book story version - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4WFXW-BzPk

Luckily Jayce and the wheeled warriors had an ending or I would have cracked... :pac:

Does anyone remember a cartoon about a giant dragon type creature, I think it was turned to stone and was trapped in a huge cave but could communicate somehow. It was evil and wanted to escape and had minions working towards that goal.

I can't remember any more details about it

Would it be The Dream stone? Dragon in a cave in that.

There was a cartoon I was trying to remember for years this thread inspired me to find it. It was called the Stone Protectors.

Was basically a turtles and trolls rip off. Anyone any memory of it? I watched a bit of the first ep. Its not good.

Compared to some of the classics mentioned here.

Ugh! not politically correct as it makes fun of people with a stutter.
Tom and Jerry, same. Type casting the black house maid of the 1920's in the 1960's. You cant have any fun anymore. Cant watch Bugs bunny when he imitates a chinaman.

That is why I am buying as many DVD's as I can before they start "burning books"!

Dont you even go there with any Jim Davidson Videos.
You alright there Chalkie?

Ger Roe

Very old and very forgotten - Marine Boy.
1960's early Japanese animation, shown by the BBC in the 70's.

Sorry, Zoom must have passed me by.
Here's another from that general era though - sort of Scooby Doo like, and based on the exploits of an all girl pop band.

This was another revelation when we went from single channel RTE to pulling in UTV the BBC's and Telly Welly (HTV) from a roof top aerial.

Was chatting to a guy with a stutter last night. Halfway through telling a story about his nan, everyone at the table burst into the chorus of Hey Jude.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned the following:

James the Cat,
Dinoriders,
Skeleton Warriors,
Stoppit and Tidyup,
Caption Bucky O'Hare,
Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light,,

I don't remember the rest but I do remember Visionaries. We (me and my brother and neighbours kids) had a few action figures with holograms. They were popular for a few months and then faded away.

Proof that cartoon makers in the 1970's were smoking something:
