I used to love G - FORCE. I think they're making them again.
Johnny (whatever) also. What's the name? It escapes me right now
I think some of these posts are seventies cartoons. Captain Caveman? Wasn't that the Seventies?

Hold on.... Transformers was too commercial and obvious but Thundercats wasn't? I don't know if they were exactly 80's or not but I miss the old Mega Man cartoons and the old Nintendo cartoons that were hosted by Captain Lou Albano as Mario. Lou Albano actually lives close by, that magnificent bastard.

Carolynanna - I'm almost reluctant to admit it now , but I LOVED the Shmoo. I still remember his crazy theme song too. Man... Shmoo ruled.
And this one isn't a cartoon either, and pretty sure IT WAS 70's... (thinking Captain Cavey WAS 80's), but did anyone watch Space Giants? For a long time my life was all about some Space Giants:

| Anybody remember Wattoo Wattoo (or similar) - I think it must have been Scandinavian or East European. It was a weird bird fish thing that multiplied into hundreds of Wattoo Wattoos when it felt like it. We used to like it because it didn't make any sense. |

| Ulysses 31 is the greatest 80's(or any decade) cartoon EVER. It was one of those Japanese/French co-productions(between DIC and TMS)that were so popular during the 1980's. A friend got volume 1 on DVD recently(volume 2 is out too), and as well as being totally nostalgic, it was thoroughly enjoyable to watch.("Telemachos!" "Father!" "By The great galaxies!" etc). |

I can't remember any show called Barbapapas, sorry. But the title makes me want to discover more about it... |

| A friend of mine had a poster of that 'Barbapapas' cartoon on his bedroom wall years ago, or something remarkably similar. There was also french cartoon that was shown in small, 5 minutes bursts about a little bird, called 'Le Piaf'. And how about those cartoons showing how the body works, with funny big-nosed charecters and an old dude with a big beard? Ulysses is still the best, though. Loved that metal soundtrack! |

Many of these cartoons are from the 60's & 70's, but I won't quibble.
I can't believe that no one has mentioned the Mighty Orbots! It was a TMS produced show that transcended the genre by being fun & well made. I still find it to have one of the most distinct visual styles in the history of pop animation. Unfortunately, the production company was sued by Mattel, makers of the GoBots. Which is funny, since the GoBots were a piss-poor attempt to rip-off the Transformers. While the lawsuit was eventually found to be worthless, it had the desired effect of ending production on the Mighty Orbots. I have my 13 episodes on VHS, and can only dream of what might have happened. C'est la vie!
Go, Mighty Orbots!

I LOVED the Super Mario Bros. cartoons. I think the fact that I was seeing the Mario characters on TV made up for the fact that the animation and plots weren't that great. Mega Man came later, I think. You're talking about the one with the lame, repetitive theme song, right? ("Super fighting robot, Mega Man!")
While we're talking about Nintendo cartoons, what about Captain N? I think I saw just about every episode of that.
