I mostly watched Fox Kids and Kids WB. I frequently watched Beast Wars, Godzilla, DC shows, Pokemon, Digimon, and a few others I can't remember right now.
I didn't catch Tiny Toons or Animaniacs much, and I never saw any Sonic shows on tv as well.
I thought this thread was about the CW 11 restructuring itself at the end of September, ending the decades-long string of animated Saturday morning cartoons on broadcast television in a few weeks!
We should make some kind of memorial!

Bobby's World, Spiderman The Animated series, X-Men, Tiny Toon Adventures, Freakazoid, and The Tick. I forget if some shows were Saturday Morning so I only listed the ones that I actually remember being on Saturday Morning.
I watched One Saturday Morning and Kid's WB.

Batman Ninja more like Batman's Bizarre AdventureGarfield And Friends, Muppet Babies, Peewees Playhouse, Bobbys World, basically any Spinoff Babies show, the 80s TMNT, Beetlejuice, CBS Storybreak, Alvin And The Chipmunks, The Bugs Bunny And Tweety Show, Dennis The Menace, the New Kids On The Block cartoon (shut up), The New Adventures Of Winnie The Pooh, the ABC Weekend Specials, and probably many more that I'm forgetting. I seemed to be partial to CBS and ABC.
Speaking of ABC, is anybody else here old enough to remember these?

I probably saw some of those bumpers.
I remember Muppet Babies and I watched Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
I also liked watching Bonkers was that Saturday morning? Because it was so long ago that it could have been Sunday morning but I think it was Saturday morning.

Batman Ninja more like Batman's Bizarre AdventureSo there ARE people here who were born in the first half of the 80s or earlier! Where have you all been hiding? I tend to feel like an old lady whenever I read these forums.
Bonkers was a weekday Disney Afternoon cartoon.

I wasn't born in the early 80s I was born in the mid 80s.
I could have sworn they aired Bonkers in the morning I think it was only in the morning on CBS but Disney aired it in the afternoon on weekdays.
Batman Ninja more like Batman's Bizarre AdventureI been here all along! No one bothered to ask.
I was already a child when The Little Mermaid was in theaters for the first time.

I loved Fox Kids and the Fox Box, too. My favorite shows were Digimon, Monster Rancher, Pokemon, and Kirby! I also liked Sonic X, though I eventually lost interest.
I loved Digimon so much that when they ran all of the episodes Dad and I taped all of them.
The Protomen enhanced my life.I didn't watch that many Saturday morning cartoons as a kid since we had the big 3 networks that aired cartoons all day. Old and new
I do however remember watching Recess, Bugs bunny show, and the first few seasons of Animaniacs/pinky and the brain on ABC and WB

Supports cartoons being cartoony!I was born in the mid-70's. I'm pretty much a fossil. I'm old enough to remember when the Smurfs debuted on NBC. I was, I think, 5, and my family had gone to Six Flags that summer, where I saw a Smurf for the first time (they had Smurf merchandise in their gift shops). Lo and behold, there they were that fall. I was in high-school when they finally bowed out in...what was it, 1990?
Let's see...I watched all the regular stuff, plus I remember Blackstarr...Thundarr the Barbarian...Shirt Tails...Dungeons and Dragons (loved that one). Anyone remember the Monchichis? No? Howzabout the Get Along Gang (though the special was miles better than the series).
I only know about the Monchichis because Robot Chicken made a First Blood of Rambo using them.
Of course, don't you know anything about ALCHEMY?!- Twin clones of Ivan the GreatThe Dungeons and Dragons cartoon must be older than I thought. I remember Fox showing it alongside Flint the Time Detective.
I kinda wish I was a kid in the 50s and 60s for the cartoons. They had a lot of great cartoons to watch on the weekends. :D

Supports cartoons being cartoony!I forgot about the Fox Box probably because I didn't watch it much. There wasn't much for me to see when it first showed up. I also remember Monster Rancher on Fox Kids, but I didn't see many episodes.
I remember while in elementary school when Pokemon was extremely popular, and many kids thought that Digimon was a rip off.

Without cheating and looking up a list, let's just say that I was around for the first runs of Ducktales and the original TMNT cartoon. Gummi Bears was just a little before my time, but I'm catching up on it now. And of course the Hanna Barbera classics like Yogi Bear and Scooby Doo. I also remember The Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show.
Incidentally, I remember the sheer amount of hype that surrounded the introduction of Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers. The behind-the-scenes TV special, the full Jets music video, all that.
And just because I have an excuse, let's get the One Saturday Morning theme get stuck in our heads again!
Ah! Can't believe I didn't mention Gummi Bears. I loved that show, though I only saw a bit of it when it was actually in first run. I really got into it when it was part of the Disney Afternoon. Let me say, Disney television animation was MILES ahead of anyone else on the air at the time in terms of animation quality at the time (which in this case was 1985). While I was a bit indifferent to Goof Troop and Quack Pack, I think they did some of the best comedy/adventure cartoons of the era, all the way up to Tarzan (which actually incorporated elements from other Burroughs series, like Pellucidar and the Mars books).
Gi Joe and Spider Man and his Amazing Friends were also favorites of mine. Almost anything from Marvel-Sunbow...
I misread that as Caturday... I need to lay off the imageboards.
I was born in 1986, came of age in the 90's. I remember both Sonic the Hedgehog cartoons, and I remember catching the Mario cartoons on PAX (now defunct) very early in the morning. I also loved USA Cartoon Express. And I actually watched The Weird Al Show when it originally aired on CBS. Plus I watched through the whole "One Saturday Morning" era, and stopped watching Saturday morning cartoons around 1999 when I was in Middle School.
My tropes launched: https://surenity2.blogspot.com/2021/02/my-tropes-on-tv-tropes.htmlI will never forget my first introduction to Tokyo Mew Mew, which was the god awful Eng. dub on Fox's 4kidstv. I quit after ep.5. I still have the theme stuck in my head. Thanks, 4Kids!
Dakota's blog An odd agent of justiceR.I.P. Saturday Morning Cartoons.
The Protomen enhanced my life.My earliest memories are Spider-Man and His Friends, 82 Hulk and Blackstar
What Saturday Morning cartoons do you remember watching as a kid?
Was it One Saturday Morning?
Or maybe Kids WB?
I was very rarely able to watch them due to lack of cable, but I did see The Adventures Of Sonic The Hedgehog and Sonic Sat AM once! No idea what channels, though.
I also saw "The Problem With Paras" when Pokemon moved to the WB. i was... confused. XD
