Hmm watched a lot of Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune when we lived with my grandparents, otherwise a large assortment of cartoons, my Grandpa used to sit down and watch Dark Wing Duck with my lil' sister and I whenever it came on. Bout the only thing other than that was anything on discovery, history, or animal planet...tv was rarely on a channel other than those.

I watched a lot of stuff on Cartoon Network when it could still be received in Austria. Ah, good times. Darkwing Duck, Freakazoid, Beetlejuice, Cow & Chicken, Dexter's Laboratory... thanks to that channel I'm able to communicate with you, seeing as my interest for the english language roots in those cartoons. I'm way too bad with other languages I started to learn later on to believe that I'd speak english as fluently as I do now if it weren't for the colourful freaks on TV.

Road Rovers and Bikermice from Mars.

Holy crap, I've been a furry longer than I had ever thought!

Throughout most of the lower grades of elementary school, I would get up at about 5:30 or 6:00 every single morning to watch Monster Rancher, Digimon, and Pokemon. I even have some recorded episodes of pokemon that I had my mom put on VHS since I wasn't up early enough sometimes.
I also watched a lot of stuff like Road Rovers, Darkwing Duck, Rugrats, and AHHH! Real Monsters. I'm sure that there are a lot more, but I can't seem to remember any. Those first three up top are what stick out the most in my memory.

EDIT: The old Cartoon Network stuff too, Dexter's Lab, Johnny Bravo, Cow & Chicken (and I.M. Weasel). The old Megaman cartoon...man, I miss being six.

AAAAH! I REMEMBER THAT NOW! I used to watch that too! I had the Sega Genesis game too, but I never figured it out. Only recently have I played it again and worked out how to play.

Marsupilami was a game? :shock:

Yeah, there was a game made based on the show. I don't remember it being that good though.
Its gameplay was similar to Lemmings mixed with platforming, you used his tail as a tool to guide the elephant to the other side of the level. You'd use his tail as stairs, a whip, and other things to keep him safe.

I didn't like the Marsupilami show. Mainly because I've read and loved the comics before watching it.

I still read those comics from time to time. Sehr interressant, nichts?
