I need a nostalgic icon

May 16, 2012 00:52

So, I've been on a bit of a nostalgia kick. This pretty much means I went to youtube and looked for all of my old favorite cartoon series. So be forewarned, this post will contain a lot of video and short rambling about said series.

Ah, Mr Bogus. It's one of those cartoons that pretty much everyone has forgotten. I love this cartoon as a kid. As a kid, I always tried to look for gremlin inside my walls. TO be fair, I was five and didn't know any better. Not to mention, I kept trying to find which closet lead to Narnia....(

Oh Peter. I had such a terrible crush on him. Often, I used to wish that I could fly to Neverland to meet him and hang out with Wendy. (Yes, I liked Peter but didn't hate Wendy) Now that I think about it, how did Wendy not go crazy living with a bunch of boys? Also, since she and her brother lived there, how did showering and bath work? 8|a

You know, I think this maybe be the intro to Iron Man.....XD Yeah, I loved watching this series since Tony was amazing. Granted, I think I liked second intro better than the first intro as a kid. I think my kid self appreciated the presence of a half naked Tony Stark. Then again, who would say no to a half naked Tony. (Especially if said Tony is played by RDJ) Still, this was one of the MANY super hero cartoon I used to watch. (The others were Batman, Spiderman, Superman and the Fantastic Four)

Conan: The Barbarian. What can I say about this series? I just loved it. It was full of action, adventure, fighting and magic. What more could a girl want? Granted, I don't remember many of the episode, save for one or two, but I enjoyed watching this series.

I can't embed this video which makes me sad, but it doesn't make. The Pirates of Dark Water. What can I saw apart that this show was pretty ahead of its time. It was a great show really. I still remember ALL the episode which surprises me. I know the series is out on dvd, but I know for a fact that WB just slaps on the DVD's. There is no subtitles or anything. I feel terrible for it to get such a bad treatment. Hell, it got bad treatment back in the day. I clearly remember Cartoon Netwrok promising to show us clips from the second season on to show a kitten lapping milk. Then saying, 'Ooops look like someone recorded over it.' I remember crying in frustration. (Fun fact: I had such a crush on Ren....and now that I'm older. I can safely say I had a crush on Tula. Hell, as a Kid I thought Tula, Ioz and Ren would end up together. Granted, they shippedteased Ren/Tula and Ioz/Tula, but I thought they all needed each to work together. )

Arthur & the Knight of Justice. Modern days football team trapped in Medieval times. Oh, did I mention is a play on King Arthur. Seriously, I thought this show was the bomb. When it got cancelled I was mad. Thankfully, they still showed the series in Peru for many years.....before it stopped being shown.

Swat Kats: Radical Squadron. What can I say? It's Swat Kats.

Now, you must be thinking where are the girl shows? Aside from the occasionally my little pony. The girliest things I watched were Care Bears and Sailor Moon. There is ONE show that I used to watch, but for the life of me I can't remember the name.

Apart from the intro, I remember nothing about this show.

Um, yeah....James bond Jr. I don't know why I liked it.
Well, that's the list. I have a LOT more stuff I used to watch back in the day, but this it for now.
