    how little? i think when i was really small teenage mutant ninja turtles and scooby doo probably each topped the list at one point. i know i was all about ren and stimpy for a while later on. by 5th grade or so, it was beavis and butthead. and then there was the simpsons; that was definitely my favorite for a while but i don't remember which years. i'm sure there were some other flavor of the minute cartoons at some point that i'm forgetting too.

    i really didn't care much for cartoons when i was little. there was disney and there was warner brothers loony toons and that was what there was.
    hanna-barbara were the first syndicated animators to come along i really much cared for, and by then, i was already over the age of ten.

    i've seen lots of good ones come along since then, and now a days, anyone with a good computer and a willingness to learn, can learn how to make them themselves.
    but in those days, when i was little, hand drawn cell animation was the only kind there was. it did employ a lot of people, and that was good,
    but the results, as with most of television for most of its history, really never had anything to do, with the kinds of things that interested me very much,
    then or now.

    i'm not trying to be negative. its just that when i was little, kids who didn't live in cities, could go for long walks in the woods, with their friends or by themselves,
    and that was mostly what i did. we had a tv. mom loved it. she watched perry como, nat king cole, diana shore, ed sullivan and laurance welk.

    it was in glorious living black and white. color, when i was really little, didn't exist yet, and when it did come along, most people still couldn't afford it.
    we had 3 networks, nbc, cbs, and abc. about the time i was in what would be middle school now, something called national educational television came along.
    after the kennidy assasination, it changed its name to pbs. then the uhf stations came along and eventually cable,
    but my family never had either of those, until long after i was an adult on my own.

    there have been some wonderful things come along in these last two or three decades. its just that, 'when i was a kid', was a somewhat longer time ago.

    I really can't remember what I watched besides the power Rangers when I was a little kid, and that isn't a cartoon. When I was a bit older I discovered the shows teletoon put out at night. Clone high, undergrads and delta state were among my favourites.

    Tom & Jerry then Johnny Quest then Scooby Doo then Heavy Metal, then Tron and finally Archer.

    My least favorite was The Bullwinkle & Rocky show, though I did like Natasha and Boris Badenoff.

    Bugs Bunny comes to mind. I can remember watching that from a young age.

    He hasn't aged a bit, unlike me. :)

    The 1930s Popeye cartoons, brilliant.

    Imagine going to a studio today and trying to sell a cartoon about a little skinny run down one eye sailor who smokes a pipe, and drinks, and a big gruff bully who slaps around a tall skinny dizzy girl with big feet.

    Then he eats spinach and beats the bully up.
    Plus the animation is suburb, better than anything Disney was doing at the time.

    And the early Warner Bros cartoons under Tex Avery, Robert Clampett and Chuck Jones.

    Also Beanie and Cecil under Robert Clampett.
