I'm from a complete different generation with this topic, but here it goes... =P

Some of my favorite childhood tv shows are:

M.A.S.K. (Mobile Armored Strike Command) 1985-1986



A cartoon series that was a hybrid of popular era cartoons 'G.I. Joe' and 'The Transformers'. It featured a special task force featuring an array of characters, led by Matt Trakker, with transforming vehicles engaged in an ongoing battle against the criminal organization V.E.N.O.M. (the Vicious Evil Network Of Mayhem), with an emphasis on super-powered helmets called masks worn by the characters on the show.

Pinky and The Brain (and Larry...) 1995 - 2001



Pinky and The Brain is a spinoff from the 'Steven Spielberg' cartoon series 'Animaniacs'. It's about two genetically enhanced laboratory mice who reside in a cage in the Acme Labs research facility. Brain is self-centered and scheming; Pinky is good-natured but feebleminded. In each episode, Brain devises a new plan to take over the world, which ultimately ends in failure, usually due to Pinky's idiocy or the impossibility of Brain's plan. In common with many other Animaniacs shorts, many episodes are in some way a parody of something else, usually a film or novel.
The opening song is always preceded by the following dialogue:

Pinky: "Gee, Brain, what do you want to do tonight?"
The Brain: "The same thing we do every night, Pinky â" try to take over the world!!!"

REBOOT 1994 - 2001




The setting is in the inner world of a computer system known by its inhabitants as 'Mainframe'. 'Mainframe' is populated almost entirely by binomes, little creatures that represent either 1s or 0s, as well as a handful of 'Sprites' who are primarily humanoid creatures of more complex design and are the main characters of the series, in particular the 'Sprites' called 'Bob' and 'Enzo Matrix'. When The User loads a game, a game cube drops on a random location in 'Mainframe', sealing it off from the rest of the system and turning it into a gamescape. 'Bob' (and later on 'Enzo' in his place) frequently enters the games, reboots to become a game character, and fights the User's character to save the sector. If the User wins a game, the sector the cube fell in is destroyed, and the sprites and binomes who were caught within are turned into energy-draining, worm-like parasites called nulls. Further seasons showed two adversaries called 'Hexadecimal' and 'Megabyte' popping up for 'Bob' and 'Enzo' with their team to battle. A very educational cartoon about the world of computers and the WorldWideWeb!
