TBT: Cartoons of the 80’s and 90’s that will fill you with Nostalgia

I know we can all agree that our childhood would have been boring without Cartoons to spice it up.Growing up most people spent countless hours watching their favorite cartoons before school, after school, on the weekends, or during holiday breaks.We  would watch as many of our favorite ‘toons as much as we possibly could.Growing up really sucks especially with all the responsibilities.

Who remembers the Gargoyles (1994). This animated series featured nocturnal creatures known as gargoyles that would turn to stone  during the day. After spending a thousand years in an enchantingly petrified state, the gargoyles would come back to life in modern-day New York to take on roles as the city’s secret night-time protectors and fight crime.How cool is that?…Their leader was called Goliath as a kid you would almost worship him at the sound of his mighty voice lol.

Y’all know what would happen to Popeye the Sailor man whenever he would eat Spinach.This Cartoon got so many children eating spinach  because they wanted muscles popping out just like Popeye’s.In reality spinach may not have been as powerful as they thought, nutritionally, but it most  certainly had a powerful PR effect. “Popeye helped increase American consumption of spinach by a third!”Am sure it did so much for African kids too

Johnny Bravo was an interesting muscular and boorish man who tried to get women to date him, but most of the time he was very unsuccessful.Johnny was a dumb blond egomaniac who was all the deluded about his own manliness..He is famous for the phrase ‘Hey pretty Mama’ and usually after using that phrase he would get  beat up pretty badly ..That made it fun for most kids right?

Cow and Chicken.This one basically focused on the misadventures of two unlikely yet somehow biological siblings Cow and Chicken,am sure most of us tried to visualize how their parents actually looked like especially because they were half people lol

Animaniacs. I bet their theme song just played in your head just now..I know ..we just can’t help it 😉 It consisted the Warner Brothers characters, appearing in a wide variety of roles including Wakko, Yakko, and Dot Warner and so many others including Chicken Boo the giant chicken that tried  to integrate into human society lol

I know a few people who are still attached to looney tunes to date,it is not easy to get over bugs bunny,Daffy Duck Tweety and the rest…They are just so awesome!Their stupidity is just so comforting..

I could go on and on but am sure everyone remembers something special about these ‘toons’.It isad to imagine that  today’s cartoons are not like what they used to be.They are either too violent for little kids to watch or lack valuable lessons and the comic relief we were all used to.They can’t compete with the cartoons 90s babies watched while growing up. click to view some the best compilation of the 80’s/90’s cartoons.
