Well, I am obviously going to say my favourite cartoon of the 90s would have to be the Rugrats! Reptar FTW!!
Strangely Nick decided to pretty much end the series (they are probrably some old reruns running at odd times) and there is nothing wrong with grown men watching cartoons!

That said, I want to see how many of you here loved these things, since most of the cartoons that networks play make me want to gouge my eyes out. angry beavers, rocko's modern life, ren and stimpy (happy happy joy joy),reboot, cow and chicken johnny bravo and ect.

Our cartoons were the best and those who haven't watched em should be ashamed of themselves for not being born earlier.

That sucks man
E,E n E was a good show, made in 1999 so it technically counts as a 90s cartoon, so ha!

Forgot to mention this in the OP, but we also were the ones who brought in pokemon, we were the ones who bought the merchandise (Red,blue and yellow ftw!) And because of us it is still running today, though I don't watch it anymore, it still has a place in my heart

I remember watching "Shoe people" and "Looney toons" classics as a child, because those were synchronized. There was one channel showing Cartoon Network cartoons but I disliked those because I couldn't understand a word, except for Dexter's lab, that one was interesting.

It's hard to make new episodes of a show about talking babies after 12 years.

I do agree, though, it was a pretty great show from the beginning.

Yeah, what a show. I didn't understand why they made them grownups in another series to try to make more money.

Batman : The Animated Series, Rocko's Modern Life, Pinky and the Brain, Animaniacs, and Darkwing Duck.

These shows were EVERYTHING to me as a kid in the 90s, man!

Some many favorites.
Heres some more from A wikipedia page of CartoonNewtork:

The channel's first original shows (The Moxy Show and Space Ghost Coast to Coast) were created in 1994. Hanna-Barbera started production on The What-A-Cartoon! Show (also known as World-Premiere Toons and "What-A-Cartoon&quot, a series of creator-driven short cartoons that premiered on Cartoon Network in 1995. It was the network's third original series (the second was Space Ghost Coast to Coast and the first was The Moxy Show). The project was spearheaded by several Cartoon Network executives, plus The Ren and Stimpy Show creator John Kricfalusi (who was an advisor to the network at the time) and Fred Seibert (who was formerly one of the driving forces behind the Nicktoons, and would go on to produce the similar animation anthology series Oh, Yeah! Cartoons).

The chief purpose of The What A Cartoon Show was to help Cartoon Network expand its library of exclusive programming and it introduced a number of new cartoon ideas. Eight of them were spun off into their own series runs. These eight series, Dexter's Laboratory (1996), Johnny Bravo, Cow and Chicken, I Am Weasel (1997), The Powerpuff Girls (1998), Ed, Edd n Eddy, Courage the Cowardly Dog , and Mike, Lu & Og (1999) became the origins of the network's original cartoons, collectively known as Cartoon Cartoons.

In 1996, Turner merged with Time Warner. This consolidated ownership of all the WB cartoons, so now post-July 1948 and the former Sunset-owned black-and-white cartoons (which Warner Brothers had reacquired in the 1960s)[3] releases were being shown on the network, leading up to a 2000 announcement that Cartoon Network would be the exclusive TV home of the classic Warner Bros. animated library. Newer animated productions by WB also started appearing on the networkâ"mostly reruns of shows that had aired on Kids' WB, plus certain new programs such as Justice League.

Cartoon Network's programming would not be available in Canada until 1997, when a Canadian specialty network Teletoon (and its French language counterpart) was launched.

Cartoon Network underwent its makeover on 1997, launching the Powerhouse theme that was used until 2004. The Powerhouse theme had bumpers involving characters from a Hanna-Barbera cartoon, a Cartoon Cartoon, or just objects and places with the Cartoon Network's Checkerboard logo at that time, or the word NEXT and the Checkerboard logo.

I enjoyed Johhny Bravo,Courage,Dexters Lab, and Angry Beavers. What I always got mad about is they stopped showing them more frequenty on tv. 90's up to 2007 was a great age in cartoons.

It is. That's why they made a movie of them grown up, and a series of them grown up slightly.

E,E n E was a good show, made in 1999 so it technically counts as a 90s cartoon, so ha!


It and a few other cartoons made during the late 90s may technically be 90s cartoons, but they aren't of the same material as earlier animated shows.

For me the list would be...

Rocko's Modern Life, Rugrats, Doug, The Ren and Stimpy Show and Animaniacs.

I feel sorry for those of you have are either too young to have watched the awesome cartoons of the early and mid nineties.


(they are probrably some old reruns running at odd times)


There are, in fact I sometimes find The Ren and Stimpy show on at 12 a.m.

well i turned 6 in the year 2000, so i didn't experience much of the 90s cartoons in the 90s, but i watched them in the early 2000s. In fact, when i was about 6 or 7, courage the cowardly dog, when going to commercial, said "don't go anywhere; or if you do, leave a trail" or something like that. So i left a trail of legos when i went to the kitchen that day.

oh and one show that hasn't been listed, not sure if it was the 90s, was Two Stupid Dogs. i was obsessed with that show when i was younger. dunno why :-P
