Hey Arnold

Definitely one of the most watched cartoons of my childhood. I still have this damn song in my head to this day:

Didn't like Hey Arnold purely because of the shape of his head...

Hey Arnold was awesome, and everyone in that show had weird heads and faces.

That show reminds me of Doug, which was another classic nick toon.

Marine Boy, the Citizen Kane of animated series
Johnny Quest
Hector Heathcote
Journey to the Center of the Earth
Top Cat (Boss Cat in the UK)
Tom and Jerry
Mickey Mouse short films, especially those featuring Goofy
Abbott and Costello animated series
Deputy Dawg
Secret Squirrel with Morocco Mole (that name must've been deliberate)
Shazam
Captain Pugwash
Mr Benn
Pixie and Dixie
The original The Jetsons
Yogi Bear and Huckleberry Hound
The Flintstones
From the eighties, The Raccoons and Inspector Gadget

I also liked real puppets, like Twizzle and Thunderbirds, but it's probably another thread.

Because everything about this show.

What he said. In fact, I was sure I commented on this ... must have gotten moderated :P
To the above I'd add my favorite clip, the "Mecha Shiva"

Venture Bros, in case you haven't guessed, is my favorite cartoon too. Awesome on so many levels, on all levels in fact.
I only regret not being able to watch it with my Polish friends, it's first of all full of US pop culture references that most of them simply don't get, and 2nd - it's also very hard at times to understand. The language is great, many memorable lines but there are times when there are 3+ people talking at the same time and there's background music that is kind of too loud to be in the background...
Other than that, Yac approves.
