“‘Dexter’s Lab’ because he’s funny and gets himself into all sorts of predicaments.”

— James Windholz, freshman,

“‘Shin Chan.’ I think it’s funny and the animation has a lot of detail.”

— Amanda Leeman, seventh grade,

“‘Tom and Jerry.’ It’s a classic and it’s still funny.”

— Ben Liu, freshman,

“‘Family Guy.’ Stewie has been my idol since I was eight years old.”

— Marshall Rawley, freshman,

“‘Sponge Bob,’ because he wears square pants and they can drink water under the ocean, which is great. I would love to have Patrick as my friend.”

— Emma Reaney, freshman,

“Maybe ‘Jimmy Neutron.’ But I haven’t watched many cartoons lately.”

— Maiko Kitaoka, eighth grade,

“‘Tom and Jerry.’ Jerry is the funniest character ever, and I like that they don’t have to say anything for it to be funny.”

— Evan Manning, freshman,

“Probably ‘Naruto,’ because I like anime and it has a lot of action.”

— Jack Shin, seventh grade,

I've been watching Beavis and Butthead lately. I forgot how hilariously dumb those two were.

Jack Shin is correct, even if the fillers on now are terrible. Fillers always are.

When I was a kid, the smurfs, of course. They were smurfilicious. And now, The Family Guy. That show, in all it's wrongness, cracks me up!

I like the Hillary Cartoon the best with the Arkansaurus Taxenspendus. it is classic with that evil smile that is frozen on her face. My grandmother always warned kids to not make faces because your face will freeze like that and Hillary is living proof of that.

Old: Bugs Bunny (and related Looney Tunes), the original Tom & Jerry (when Hanna & Barbera were working under Fred Quimby, for MGM), Betty Boop, Popeye, Mighty Mouse.Affectionate nod, for nostalgia's sake, to The Jetsons, Top Cat, Huckleberry Hound, and Quick Draw McGraw, although the later Hanna-Barbera offerings were far beneath anything produced by Quimby or by Leon Schlesinger (for Warner Bros.) in terms of animation quality, dialogue, or story line.The cartoons of the 30s and 40s were, generally speaking, far superior to those of the 60s and 70s (with the 50s seeing a gradual decline).New: Most anything from Adult Swim: Robot Chicken, The Brak Show, AquaTeen Hunger Force, Sealab 2020, Drawn Together, Home Movies, Moral Orel, Tom Goes to the Mayor; South Park, Simpsons.Too many spectaculicious cartoons to choose just one favorite.

The old fashioned kind that went oooooogaaahhhhh. Musical ones that were popular in the 1980s were pretty cool as well. The ones that sound like train whistles are anoying, especially when driven by some teenager trying to impress his female passenger at 2:00 AM.

Having a five year old, I have to go with the Fairly Oddparents. My daughter loves them, but just like the old classics (like Bugs Bunny), there's a lot of humor that's obviously not intended for little ones.We now have a cat named Wanda and another named Cosmo, who, unfortunately, wasn't fixed quite in time, so Wanda recently delivered Poof, Timmy, and two others.
