There is an 2016 animated show on the Canadian channel Tele Toon starring a boy named Winston Steinburger, a cat named Sir Dudley Ding Dong, and a mouselike alien named Hampton. With a homemade space cruiser, the three explore the galaxy together.
Can you help me with this one?
open?.. Western Animation
There was a show out around the same time as reboot and the main character could do all these amazing stunts because he could see the math of the physics of everything. Pretty sure it was 3d animated, i remember something about a gondola and skiing? This is driving me sane.

openKids TV Show Name?? Western Animation
So I've been trying to find the name of this kids show that I watched a long time ago which consists of a bunch of different skits or games which I believe are stop motion animation and the name has something to do with a brain I believe. The only segment I remember is when a skeleton on a ship breaks apart and makes an equation with his bones and asks the audience to move one to make the equation true. Please help me I've been trying to find this for so long!
openCartoon about little girl who becomes giant? Western Animation
I looked under This Billboard Needs Some Salt, but I couldn't find it. So basically, there's a boy babysitting his little sister, who's this blonde toddler in pink dungarees. And two yellow aliens' plot goes wrong and she ends up gigantic and starts to play with the aliens like dolls. I remember she says, "You're the mommy" and puts one of the aliens in a pink dress, which it (I can't remember its gender but I think it was a he) doesn't like and the other one laughs. She then sees an ice cream truck and tries to eat the big sign on it (which is why I thought it would be under This Billboard Needs Some Salt) but upon realising it's not a real ice cream, she picks up the truck (the driver has fled) and shakes out all the ice cream into her mouth. At this point, the boy says on his cell phone to their mother, "My sister wants an ice cream." The mother replies, "She'll spoil her dinner," to which the boy says, "Don't worry, mom: She has a BIG appetite!" When the girl finally gets shrunk down to regular size, the mother comes back and the girl says, "We played with yellow dollies!". And then the aliens leave, one calling the other 'mommy' in jest.
openTrying to remember the name of this 90's cartoon Western Animation
So I don't remember much about this show. It was set in space or another galaxy or something to that effect. The main characters were this big guy some bad ass chick and a small annoying funny guy that was pretty much useless. It seemed like he was some sort of experiment that had escaoed the bad guys. There was an episode where they're looking down from the rim of a crater at a fortress or maybe a lab that had seemed like it had something to do with small guys origins.
resolved English cartoon Western Animation
I only know it was English because I found info about on the web at one point. Anyway i'm looking for this cartoon that was on during the early 90's in the Netherlands though it probably originally was from the 80's. It was about this group of kids and stray dog who had adventures in the dreamworld, in their dreams all the kids had superpowers and the dog could talk. I think it was named after the stay dog.
openRed and Blue girl show? Western Animation
This show was still extremely common, but i just don't know where it is. Sorry that this is overly long, but I've been waiting on this for years! It was a Nickelodeon show, playing around The Mighty Bee, i think. It was about two girls- one completely red and the other completely blue. The blue one was always nice but naive and didn't know that the red one didn't like her and wanted her out of her life. I remember a specific episode where a teacher of some sort, i forget, has to repay a debt to the red one, and the red girl tells him to get rid of the blue. they go through tons of shenanigans, a very specific scene is when the blue girl wants to eat a..glowing, i think, mushroom growing on the ground. The red girl keeps on telling the person to let it happen. But the person couldn't watch and eventually gave her money to go buy non poisonous mushrooms. I also remember there was a theme song, but I couldn't tell you the lyrics.
openLooking for the title of an old cartoon Western Animation
I am looking for a cartoon that I watched during the late 80's-mid 90's but may be older. It was dubbed in French in my country but may not be French. It was set in a fantasy world and starred a young blonde prince going on some sort of quest. He wears a circlet. He is helped by a talking worm and a talking owl. There is some tree that is important to the story, I think.
The prince is referred to as 'enfant de la lumière', or something to that effect, meaning, 'child of the light'.
I have been hunting for it for ages, any help would greatly appreciated.
openExamples of Unwanted Rescue? Western Animation
What are examples of the trope of "unwanted rescue" on Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network cartoons?
openAnimated Kids Show with Coloured Blocks Western Animation
Hi, I've been trying to find a tv show for years to no avail. There is a possibility that I made it up but I don't think so, a few of my friends remember it too. So from what I remember, it was a bunch of coloured blocks with faces on them, and they formed part of a multicoloured road. At the start of the episode they'd hop out from the road and start walking. I remember one episode when they saw a cave with glowing eyes looking at them and they freaked out, but then came back later and the eyes turned out to belong to someone really friendly. If anyone knows what I'm talking about and could give me a name I'd be so appreciative.
openWhat cartoon is this song from? Western Animation
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHbNNLgRpL0
Could it be something to do with The Addams Family? I'm asking because they mention the name Addams or Adams and there's a cemetery and the woman outside looks a bit like Morticia? Except it's a cartoon?
openFlash Cartoon about space dogs Western Animation
I remember watching an old cartoon on the internet about a group of dogs going into space. I don't remember much outside of a few things, like there being a rival team of space monkeys, one of the dogs making a heroic sacrifice, and that the website also featured a movie about a boy and his bunny rabbit as well as a movie set in revolutionary times where a girl was the protagonist and helped George Washington thwart some Evil Brit.
openKids Show from mid 2000-ish Western Animation
the show focused on a black girl and her single mother's life. They lived in an apartment. It was aired on TVO Kids and in one episode the girl got a job at her apartment cleaning because she was friends with the janitor and wanted pocket money. It aired sometime in the late 2000's
openMartial arts cartoon show Western Animation
I'm trying to find a cartoon show where the main characters are these three chinese children (around 12ish); two boys and one girl. One of the boys is long-haired and wears glasses. Serious and bookish character. His outfit resembles a white robe somewhat. His power manifests in form of a dragon. The other one is a reckless character and the one who is always looking for an adventure. Fights often with the boy mentioned above. His power is in a form of a tiger. The girl wears a pink martial arts outfit and her hair is tied into two long pigtails. She can manipulate water (one episode she was protected by a sphere of water that prevented her from drowning in the river). She acts as the mediator of the two boys. One episode showed her future self defecting to the evil side. The three children were unaware of their powers at first. The show's pretty old? From the early 2000s.
open2D cartoon with little animals Western Animation
Hello! I am trying to figure out the name of a 5 minute 2D animation cartoon that played between shows where all the little animals, mountains, stars and trees had smiley faces and little round pink/red noses. Little bats even carried in the night sky to signify night time. I remember this cartoon from the late 90s early 2000s and need your help to put a name to it.
openNo Title Western Animation
I was just randomly reminded of a snippet of a cartoon I once saw ages and ages ago. What I can remember is that some people were in an exotic location — I think an alien planet, and had lost their pet dog, but were going to a restaurant. They find the dog's collar in the food they order, and assume the dog was caught and cooked... but in the reveal, it turns out that only the dog's collar was cooked — apparently, the red leather it was made of was considered good food (possibly even a delicacy) by those running the restaurant.

Okay, this show was probably made in either the 1990s or the very early 2000s. It was an all CGI series travelling with three robots as they explored the solar system. Every single episode had a simple plot structure: They would land on planet, explore, get samples, one of them would get into trouble, the other two would rescue them and they would fly off to their next adventure. Except for the last one, where they landed on the planet, explored and one of them got into trouble. Then a second one got into trouble, so it was all left for just one of them to save the day. 20 metres from the spacecraft, it ran out of fuel, leaving them stranded and dead there for all time. I've been searching for this for the past six years, and I'd really like a sense of closure regarding it.
