Raymond Luxury-Yacht Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 (edited) Turkish television mid-80's to mid-90's. These are the ones I used to like most; in no particular order: Voltron He-Man and the Masters of the Universe The Smurfs Clementine Les Mondes Engloutis Rahan La Linea Bravestarr The Real Ghostbusters Ninja Turtles Robotech Richie Rich Marco Harlem Globetrotters Transformers Yakari A whole bunch of soccer-themed Japanese cartoons of which the names completely elude me. Abner the Baseball (No there's no baseball played in Turkey: Yet every person between the ages 20-30 should know this little flick by heart, as it was filler material between shows on the only existing tv channel.) Alvin and the Chipmunks Denver Several French cartoons with 'didactic' purposes as to introducing to kids historical, scientific etc. themes. Roadrunner The whole WB enterprise Disney likewise ditto, for Hanna-Barbara Woody Woodpecker Thundercats Popeye Inspector Gadget Hong-Kong Phooey Red-Kid (which is the alias for Lucky Luke here) Asterix Casper Heidi Viki the Viking The Pink Panther Calimero Nils and the Flying Goose Maja the bee Edited September 24, 2006 by Raymond Luxury-Yacht pronounced: Throatwobbler Mangrove Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colrom Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 (edited) My original favorite was the Phantom cartoon strip. "The Phantom is a comic strip created by Lee Falk (also creator of Mandrake the Magician), recounting the adventures of a costumed crime-fighter called the Phantom. The series began with a daily newspaper strip on February 17, 1936, which was joined by a colour Sunday strip in May of 1939; both are still running as of 2006, although Lee Falk has passed away, and the newspaper comics are now written by Tony DePaul and drawn by Paul Ryan (daily strip) and Graham Nolan (Sunday strip). Previous artists on the newspaper strip include Ray Moore, Wilson McCoy, Bill Lignante, Sy Barry, George Olesen, Keith Williams and Fred Fredericks. The Phantom is credited as being the first "costumed superhero", i.e. the first crimefighter to wear the skintight costume attributed to comic book superheroes. Previous fictional crime fighters, such as Zorro and Doc Savage, were not designed especially for newspaper comic strips or comic books."

Raymond Luxury-Yacht Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Anyone remember "Rahan, fils des ages farouches"? Apparently a new version is in preparation, and there are news of a movie under way; though the cartoon will likely be broadcast in France alone. pronounced: Throatwobbler Mangrove Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was an interesting show, educational and entertaining but the comic was even better. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You must have sought this one out, no doubt; but I'll post it for general reference: Rahan - Intro with lyrics As for 'educational', I completely agree: I think many European cartoons of the 80's [i know Rahan has a much longer history as a comic book] were culturally responsible, featuring anthropological, historical, etc. themes in ways that would be appealing to kids. I have such 'themes' in mind, as adventures taking place in places as diverse as Native American or Viking tribes, the Swiss countryside, in early Stone Age communities, or the Spanish conquest of the Americas. Today's cartoons by contrast seem to care for nothing but selling more toys and video games! pronounced: Throatwobbler Mangrove Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musopticon? Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 If Adult Swim doesn't pick it up I'll be basically the saddest man in the world. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm pretty certain they've already picked it up: On June 18th, Adult Swim ran a bumper announcing Korgoth was officially picked up as a series. No information has been released as to when the show will begin to air new episodes. And I know what you mean, homes: Korgoth Of Barbaria Episode 1, Part 1 Korgoth of Barbaria is the name of an American animated television series created by Aaron Springer, the storyboard artist of SpongeBob SquarePants. The pilot episode first aired in the United States on June 3, 2006 at 12:30 AM (EST) on Adult Swim. On June 18th, Adult Swim ran a bumper announcing Korgoth was officially picked up as a series. New episodes will air in September. [1]The series follows the exploits of the title character Korgoth (voiced by actor Diedrich Bader), and parodies Conan the Barbarian, as well as the sword and sorcery genre in general. The pilot was storyboarded by Aaron Springer with the animation directed by Genndy Tartakovsky. The Heavy Metal/Thrash Metal musical theme is composed by Lee Holdridge. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korgoth_of_Barbaria <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Anyway, don't judge me: Futurama, Cowboy Bebop, The Simpsons, Johnny Bravo, Duck Dodgers, Justice League (+Unlimited), the one with the fat dude and the huge killer transformer and that, uh, hip-hop influenced anime: Samurai Champloo. Like, I know they can - with a few (obvious) exceptions - be pitiful, dumb and just plain awful at times, but I can't stop watching, I can't slap myself silly and bash the damn telly dead - cause I'm a sad sad nerd trapped inside a dashing young man's body. Well, except the dashing part: I'd settle for sexy, though plain ain't that be an adjective. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I was sorta thinking that we'd be listing and memorising the toons that we grew up watching. Otherwise I'd be listing Cowboy Bepob and other anime as well. Actually, to tell you the truth, I should be listing Sailor Moon, Candy Candy and others here since I watched a ton of anime when I was around 11, but decided not to clot this topic with the genre, because there's hundred and one(actually just three, but anyways) topics for it. Korgoth is awesomely superb, yes. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today. A man who craves furry hentai.
