resolved An adult swim cartoon about a married couple with a baby. Western Animation
This is the most recent one I came across. Let me give the hint of the episode: Basically it focused on a married couple (The guy had orange hair and glasses while his wife's hair was black and curly) with a baby. The episode had the married guy attend a mall arcade where there was a birthday stripogram and the episode ended with a kid using an arcade gun and being mistaken for a hostage taker which caused the police cars and helicopter to surround the mall?
resolved "Lots and lots of money." Solved. Western Animation
Aimed at kids. A scene segues from one to another over two kids considering... something that would entail. "Lots of money." "Lots and lots of money." "Lots and lots and lots of money..."
Edited by Caswinresolved (SOLVED) French cartoon Western Animation
I once had to watch a French cartoon for an assignment in French class. It was about this family, and it included a big brother and little sister. One episode had them going on vacation. The start of the opening had the dad singing and cooking. It was animated in 2D, probably made in the 90s.
EDIT: I found it. It was “Tom Tom et Nana”
Edited by sudrictoonresolved Copycat Mockery Picture Western Animation
The page image from Copycat Mockery is clearly from Peanuts but isn't listed as an example on the page. Anyone know which of the cartoons it comes from?

Edited by dutchguy1986resolved Creepy frog monster Western Animation
It had a pure nightmare fuel frog (claymation I think) that had a long wooden spatula scoop thing that I think it was using to torture someone with
I thought it was a nightmare for the longest time till a friend recently said she remembers it too but couldn’t remember what show or movie it was from either
resolved somebody help? Western Animation
So, I need help finding a show. I remember watching it in the early-to-mid 2010s. It was animated sort of like Winx Club, and there were schools for angels and demons. I remember the angel high school was called the Golden School. The protagonist (an angel) had kind of a thing with a demon and their romance could apparently cause calamity. Said demon also appeared on the same human's shoulders with the protag. Also, there were pets. One of the demon love interest's pets was a snake. Somebody help, please?
Edited by MintySkiesresolved Hungarian animated series about goofy family Western Animation
Somewhere around late 80's of last century there was this animated series made in Hungary. It was about a goofy family which was either travelling around the world and made havoc when clashing with different cultures, or they were contacting their successor in the future, who sent them various gimmicky contraptions, or their teenage son was exploring space using inflatable spaceships.
Does this ring any bells?
resolved That show with the ghost girl who's name is Sorry. Western Animation
It was a TV show where one of the characters was a ghost girl who's name was Sorry and she wore a bedsheet over her head. That's all I can remember about it.
resolved Promotional magazine cover for "The Simpsons Guy" Western Animation
Years back when the Family Guy / The Simpsons Crossover "The Simpsons Guy" was about to premiere and was being heavily hyped, I remember one magazine had a promotional cover for the episode that depicted Meg playing Lisa's saxophone while Lisa looked on in shock. The problem is I don't remember which magazine had that specific cover. Could anybody tell me which magazine it was?
resolved Someone please tell me! (SOLVED) Western Animation
There was this Martha Speaks episode and I have absolutely no idea which episode it was, but there was this really catchy song at the end of it that I absolutely loved and I can't find it on You Tube anywhere but I do remember the lyrics. It was comparing greed and generosity and the song was so good but I can't find it anywhere. Does anyone know what episode it was???
Edited by lunaloud45resolved Does anyone know this cartoon character? Western Animation
There's a cartoon that I used to watch, but I don't quite remember the character's name.
The character was a brown dog(?) who wore a pink bathrobe most of the time.
He is not Hong Kong Phooey.
SOLVED! I just found my answer: It was Master Splinter from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987). And apparently he's a rat, not a dog.
Edited by ReconDeconresolved Cartoon about Area 51 (SOLVED) Western Animation
It's an American probably western animation series produced sometime between 2000 and 2010 (sorry, no idea the actual date, just when I recall watching it). The protagonist is a... partially successful bounty hunter who got several tips on the job from his late father, yet many of them don't work. Until he tried one of them on a werewolf. The female lead and main love interest is a Banshee who escaped from Stonehenge because she would become a sacrifice, and is now trying to adjust to modern life. The two are recruited by scientists/military in Area 51. I also specifically recall that Banshees have a thing with music (triggers their abilities, I think) and something with a DNA-tracking giant spider robot.

Edited by Lermisresolved Pro-capitalist sci-fi animated short film Western Animation
There was this cartoon short film that came out either in the 50s or 60s, and it was about how 'great' capitalism is. It had a very Raygun Gothic / Zeerust aesthetic, and I think it featured aliens (perhaps martians) as well. It was even probably sponsored by a gas company. I don't know if it's in the public domain. What is it?
EDIT: I finally found it, it's 1956's Destination Earth
resolved A cartoon about two anthropomorphic animals traveling the world Western Animation
I remember an Edutainment cartoon following two brothers in a World of Funny Animals (I believe the two were rabbits, but I might be wrong) traveling to a different country in almost every episode, which teached their traditions and geography to children. In Brazil, it was broadcasted on Discovery Kids around the 2000's.
Edited by good-morningresolved tv show about airship races, female protagonist Western Animation
Not sure if it was Western Animation or Anime, I think the show had a steampunk style.
I remember the plot of an episode was about a race between multiple airships. The female human protagonist made a deal with an alien-looking guy of another team to not attack each other during the race.
While racing one of the girl's team member ignores her and starts firing against the alien dude ship, using a machine gun mounted on a glass bubble structure that pops below the ship. The girl gets mad and uses the ship controls to retract and lock the machine gun. The alien dude, confused and betrayed, attacks the girl's ship, that is unable to defend because the girl locked the guns. The ship ends up crashing and they are unable to finish the race. The alien dude ends the race but is nowhere near the winners.
I don't remember anything else about the plot but I remember that the girl failing was a common theme, it was a very pessimistic show.
I believe it was aired in cartoon network during a girl focused segment, along with The Winx Club. I saw it in Argentina so it must have had an spanish dub. I've looking for a while but I can't find anything.
resolved 90s-2000s claymation shorts on Teletoon Western Animation
I vaguely remember a series of claymation shorts on teletoon during the 90s. The characters had british accents, and one of the shorts was about a movie about plants eating people.
I beleive that the ending theme had he words "always having fun"
Can anyone tell me the name of the claymation shorts?
