Here are mine-

1. South Park - A great cartoon that never gets old.
2. Futurama - A classic that was canned way to early.
3. Family Guy - Another great cartoon with lots of pop culture humor.

[Carlos_f_Rose]

[Ignatius]

Great topic.

Just gonna mention my top...1

Mazinger Z.? This is the best cartoon ever made. It's a japanese anime created in the late 70's. It's about a powerful robot built by a scientist to combat Dr Hell's plans to conquer earth.?

Spanish TV showed only the first 26 episodes out of the 96 that were done.? I didn't even have a VCR back then yet, so there's no way i could've recorded it. The series have become a rare item here cause no one has the distribuition rights anymore (in Spain at least). So, I did a search on ebay a while back and bought the 96 episodes in DVD format. Obviously, these DVD's aren't official, but the quality is good, and the artwork is not too bad either. Got my money's worth (which by the way, it was a lot).

Here's a link for so you can have a glimpse of Mazinger Z.

Ahhh...what great taste dude! My order is slightly different

1. Family Guy - 10 Times better than The Simpsons, just been watching Season 4 and in Episode 5 there are some wonderful Rocky references, great stuff!
2. Futurama - Never watched this when it was on TV i thought it looked crap.? At University though my mate got the DVD of Series 3 (i think...) and it was awesome i could not believe i had not watched this before, i was also easily shocked when i was told they did not make it anymore.
3. This one is tricky, i'll have to edge to South Park.? Normally i am not that big a fan but when me and my mates have massive smoking sessions it's one of the most popular things to watch, and on shrooms i also got a new appreciation for it.? I remember watching 3 episodes of the same night all from different perspectives, it was class stuff, seemed so long to Anywayz, when stoned it rocks! So this sucka makes it in...

[Oddy]

ah nuts now i look i'm copying everyone.

1. Family Guy - sure there are some bad episodes but generally.........they all have their moments. i can't wait til season 4 returns......i think its up to ep 11 now or something. they recreate things so well in family guy. you ever notice that? like in "jungle love" in season 4 when chris is a freshman and he's getting paddled and Alice Coopers No more mr nice guy is playing and its all in slow motion and its EXACTLY like Dazed and Confused. it even has the dudes from Dazed and Confused in the background jumpin and laughing. the way Mayor West throws the paddle up and catches it all that. its all the little stuff in family guy that i love.

2. Simpsons - Ok, i hate simpsons now. the new seasons downright suck. they don't do anything for me. but despite this i can't deny the fact that seasons 7-11 or so were all really really good. classics. too bad simpsons is dead for me now.

3.South Park - i used to hate this show. but its mostly the first few seasons i hate. season 5 or 6 onwards i've downloaded and watched and i love it. its no longer simply based around crude humour. now it can be intelligent. i really like it now.

http://mazinworld.com/Mazinger.html

Ah, I hear you man     Only a guy from Spain could mention Mazinger Z.  It's been shown in very few countries outside Japan. In France, we didn't get Mazinger but another anime created by Go Nagai, Grendizer (Goldorak for French people here). It's, like, the most succesful anime of all times in France, and still a huge phenomenon.
Unfortunately, both releases on DVD have been blocked for obscure reasons. Toei Animation has just announced Grendizer boxsets for next spring, so maybe Mazinger will follow   Also, you might be interested in knowing that there are new episodes with Mazinger Z and Great Mazinger currently being shown on Japanese TV, under the name Mazinkaiser

To answer the original question, my favourite animes are Saint Seiya, and in a totally other style, the Mysterious cities of gold. I've always been a bigger fan of japanimation than Disney or Warner type cartoons 

[Amanda]

1. Homer Simpson
2. Donald Duck
3. Stripperella

[Where is Hassan Nasrallah ?]

neon genesis evangelion (the quality is that high, that i dont consider evangelion a cartoon or an anime, it's art)

saint seiya

the simpsons

southpark's cartman's voice

[AxlsMainMan]

Damn, only 3 is hard to choose from:

1. Family Guy...the storylines are hilarious as hell, but its the 3 second off topic shots that are really funny
2. Duckman: Private Dick...I used to love this cartoon when I was little despite the crude humor, and I always hated how the show ended in a cliffhanger
3. Buggs Bunny & Tweety Bird Show....who can forget the original saturday morning cartoon? I still laugh my ass off every once in awhile

[pilferk]

I'm giving you 4..and you'll like it!

The Simpsons

Scooby Doo

Batman: The Animated Series

Dangermouse

[Jamie]

[Izzy]

Family Guy

Futurama

Thundercats - largely due to the soundtrack which addicted me for life to shredding

Hey that's cool!

So Grendizer uh? What's about?

Funny you mention Saint Seya...at first it didn't click on me, but then I realized you are taling about "Los Caballeros del Zodiaco". I was a fun, not a huge fan, but followed it till the very end. God, that must've been like 13 or 14 years when they showed on TV over here. There was even a song (in spanish) I still remember the lyrics.."Caballeros del zodiaco, contra las fuerzas demon?acas..." Has "Saint Seya" been released in France (DVD format)??

[Pandora]

So Grendizer uh? What's about?

It's about a man from another planet which was destroyed by the forces of Vega (the equivalent of Dr Hell I suppose). He manages to escape with the robot Grendizer and seeks asylum on Earth. But the forces of Vega are now trying to conquer Earth too, and he decides to defend the planet against their invasion with the help of his robot and a few friends he has made on Earth.
If you like Mazinger Z, you will like Grendizer   Similar design, brilliant story. And you will see at least one familiar face : Alcor / Koji Kabuto, who pilots the Double Spazer. Boss Borot also makes a few guest appearances

Yes but the French version is not the best (horrific translation in particular). Try to get your hands on the japanese version

Grendizer flies?    How cool...

Did you notice that both Mazinger and Grendizer have the same colors? blue, red, white, yellow and black. Yeah, they are both very similar.

I think for the time being I'll stick to the spanish version of Saint-Seya...

[MadmanDan]

I'm into "Old school" cartoons:

1   Bugs Bunny

2   Droopy

3   Donald Duck

[Evolution]

Oor Wullie 

[Pandora]

Did you notice that both Mazinger and Grendizer have the same colors? blue, red, white, yellow and black. Yeah, they are both very similar.

That's because they're part of a trilogy created by Go Nagai : Mazinger Z, Great Mazinger and Grendizer. Mazinger Z is the grandfather of them all 

[noonespecial]

simpsons
south park
ahhhhh scary monsters

[AxlsMainMan]

Does anyone remember Captain Planet?

Kudos Slipdisc! That was truly a classic cartooon if there ever was one

[Drew]

I do and I liked it.

G.I. Joe
Teenage Muntant Ninja Turtles
The Flintstones

[Pandora]

Hmmm...was Mazinger Z called Tranzor Z here in the states?  That's the one with aphrodite A, who had the missle tits?

I'd never heard the name before, but yeah, it looks like it's the same thing. I see they also changed the name of the pilot to Tommy Davis     Americans really are masters at changing characters's names and making them ridiculous 

P.S. Pandora, is Grendizer dubbed in english? if not, is the translation good?

Yes it is, it was shown as part of a syndicated serie called Force Five. From what I hear the dubbing in english is absolutely butchered. I've never heard it myself though, so I can't really comment on it. Once again, all I can recommend you is to watch the japanese version with english subtitles 

[Mr. Dick Purple]

The simpsons - Classic! 
Looney Tunes - Grew up with it and still loving it. Daffy duck it's the greatest.
Samurai cats  ---> anyone saw that?

I also like the X-men the animated series cause Rogue were so hot 

[Pandora]

[mikegiuliana]

current would be

south park, simpsons,

from the past

Thundercats, transformers (with optimus prime and megatron), and He man
here's an intro to a favorite of mine growing up

http://www.retrojunk.com/details_theme/38/

[Ignatius]

http://www.retrojunk.com/details_theme/38/

Dungeons and Dragons...that must've been like 15 years ago. I used to love that show, I never got to see the last episode (I've been traumatized since...  ) but my guess would be that they finally found a way back home.

The show was dubbed in spanish, but (this is the weird part) it was dubbed in Mexican Spanish. The accents (as some may know) are very different between  somebody from Spain and somebody from Central or South America.  I still do remember some of the expressions that I had never heard in my life before.

[mikegiuliana]

D &D was fucking awesome,.. I am the dungeon master.. I use to love uni   Weird thing is I never played the game once but watched the cartoon alot..

bet you smilied big when you clickred the link and what it was..

Transformers the movie and that soundtrack ruled

[Carlos_f_Rose]

Dont forget Saint Seiya Guys...

[mikegiuliana]

Dont forget Saint Seiya Guys...

don't remember them

When I was a kid I had trransformers, gi joe, voltron, D N D, thundercats, smurfs ,snorks, fraggle rock, he man, she ra, etc

[Carlos_f_Rose]

Cool ones Mike, I also liked Thundercats and Heman

dont forget robotech...

I don't think there was a final episode, i seem to remember reading people's continuing outrage about this

[Ignatius]

That will explain why I never got to see the last episode then?

I wonder how many people, going nuts either had tape on their glasses or a pocket protector

[Eazy E]

1. X-Men - easily my favourite... I've pretty much lost track of all the old episodes I had taped, but I lived for this show.  The only one that I would actually make sure I was in front of the TV for new episodes.

2. The Simpsons - I'm suprised at the lack of love The Simpsons is getting in this thread... Family Guy 10X better? Nahhh, I think the one thing that puts the Simpsons ahead of Family Guy is the re-watch value.  Every episode of Family Guy I've seen more than twice I barely even chuckle at... I haven't touched my FG DVD sets in a loooong time.

3. Futurama - I think a lot of people hated it when it first came out... and I was one of them.  I've just recently been getting into it, and damn is it funny.  Yesterday I saw the episode with the "Pi-kea" bit... It killed me.

Honorable Mentions: The Flintstones, South Park, Ghostbusters & Beetlejuice.

[mikegiuliana]

Ghostbusters

I hated the fake one.. That was so fucking retarded

[Gunna_girl01]

[Where is Hassan Nasrallah ?]

anime ?

[anythinggoes]

the simpsons
south park
beavis and butthead
garfield
ren and stimpy

[Danny Top Hat]

anime ?

Hell yeah!  My favourite shows at the moment are 'Bleach' and 'Naruto', which are both in a class of their own.  I just rented out 'Full Metal Panic' as well which is pretty good and very funny.  In terms of anime films, I love 'Princess Mononoke' and 'Nausicaa: of the valley of the wind' which are both Miyazaki creations, and 'Ninja Scroll' is really good as well.  Oh, and 'Dead Leaves' is absolutely brilliant as well.  If anime were a child I would adopt it and hug it every day.

Other 'toons that deserve shout-outs are:

South Park
Fairly Odd Parents
Jonny Bravo
Powerpuff Girls (silence!  It's damn funny.)
Tom and Jerry
Dexter's Lab
The Lion King

[Where is Hassan Nasrallah ?]

i was on a Naruto frenzy when the trend started (september 2004) and then ... after watching 120 episodes in 2 months .... i got sick of it, so i stopped at episode 120 something, and erased all the videos lol

never saw bleach tho.

[nesquick]

My favourite cartoons are Muhammad cartoons?
Just joking people, don't put a fatwa on my head

[Danny Top Hat]

after watching 120 episodes in 2 months .... i got sick of it, so i stopped at episode 120 something

Same here actually.? The writers got lazy and decided to descend into fillers after that point, so I think that turned a lot of people.? Still, is was 120 episodes of pure class.

Bleach is better than Naruto.? Just.? You should give it a chance man!

[Rocksteady]

Simpsons are still funnier than most of the other stuff. Futurama was awesome it's criminal that it got cancelled. Family guy and South Park are also very good. And who could forget the great superhero/mutant cartoons from the 90's like Batman TAS, TMNT, X-Men, Biker Mice From Mars, Spiderman, TAS, Superman TAS etc.

[Lisa]

Simpsons, South Park, Spongebob SquarePants, Drawn Together.....Fairly Odd Parents....Futurama
