Something was truly right in the air for cartoons. Aeon Flux, Heavy Metal, Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, Spicy City, MTV Downtown, etc.... puts you in such a weird mood 🫦
i dont mean bluey even tho bluey is peak TV. but animation is such a rich medium for any demographic and i deeply miss the college stoner era where the plan every night was to just put on something animated. current faves r common side effects (excellent tv show), fantastic planet (1973 sci fi), and great pretender (heist anime) and i am highly open to other suggestions
some of the weirdo shit on Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon is definitely to blame for <gestures to the way i am now>
- Invader Zim
- Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy (or Grim & Evil for the real old heads)
- Courage the Cowardly Dog (h/t riotgrrrl for setting me straight)
- Ed, Edd, n Eddy
- Ahhhh! Real Monsters
- Angry Beavers
- honorable mention to Ren and Stimpy which was so weird, we were technically banned from watching it
ones i’ve watched partially/fully in recent years: midnight gospel!!!!, bojack horseman, neon genesis evangelion (technically anime), clone high, tuca & bertie, daria, aggretsuko, old fraggle rock lol
cartoons i loved growing up that i would still rewatch episodes from: old spongebob, powerpuff girls, phineas & ferb, scooby-doo, lilo & stitch the series, my life as a teenage robot, chowder
