I remember this cartoon about inside the human body. How blood would be attacking viruses etc. It was fcucking amazing.

that was called how my body works and had an excellent collectable magazine with it too

i was a massive fan of C.O.P.S

every episode ended with them slamming a book shut and exclaiming "Case Closed"

A poster above got it 'how my body works'. Loved the centurions too.

I also remember Superted in Irish.

Loved Johnny Bravo, like a blonde moronic elvis.

All my favourites have been mentioned

Centurions, Ulysses 31, Thundercats, MASK etc
Ulysses 31 has, without doubt, the greatest theme tune ever.

This was another one I used to watch - Thunderbirds 2086

One thing I do know, they definitely do not make them like they used to. Saturday mornings were just the best!!

Oh jaysys no. That looks very medical. How my body works was like a real kids cartoon with storylines and characters and everything, have a look on youtube, its actually quite a good show.

Danger mouse

My mother is in a nursing home and was asking me to send her in a night dress. I bought an XXL Danger Mouse t-shirt. She loved it and said the nurses were all commenting on it.

Danger Mouse lives on!

He- Man will never be forgotten.

I remember a captain planet where they visited Belfast and stopped the trouble with the provos and the loyalists by baking bread. Kids these days don't know what they are missing.

Another one was about bouncing bears, bouncing here and there and everywhere.

Remembered the above now. Gummy Bears.

In my secondary school, one of the housemasters was a small fat fella with glasses. Obviously got nicknamed penfold.

No mention of Cadillacs and Dinosaurs?

What the hell happened to cartoons, things are supposed to get better as time progresses not worse, some of the drivel that passes for cartoons these days.
My daughter will be shown all of this old stuff for sure.

Best animated show has to be Batman the animated series.

Once upon a time, Life.

I used to love that. Probably wouldn't be allowed on TV nowadays.

Yeah, that's it. I do remember some very strange scenes that weren't expected in a kids show.

Duckula
Danger mouse

My 6 year old son loves both of them! It's great to watch them with him and think, wow these kids cartoons are a bit smart.

Thundercats ROAR is such a let down, when you compare it to Thundercats.

Sport Billy. Had a magic bag where he could get any piece of sport equipment from. Absolute cracker of a kids cartoon.

There was a whole series, 'Life' was just one season.
Others were from historical periods such as cavemen, Romans, Greeks and then there was one season set in the future.
The same characters played similar roles through the ages such as 'Maestro'.

Sometimes I see episodes from it on Virgin channel TV5 Monde Europe without subtitles though.
