      Mask & Dino Riders were created with the same thought process as transformers: make a show to sell toys…

      That shit worked, lol! I had the motorcycle helicopter & a pterodactyl with missile launchers. I wanted that T-Rex so bad, but that was like $100 in 80’s money and was not happening.

      Brave Star was my favorite, though.

    Samurai Pizza Cats. My grandma would have tapes of it so whenever I went over to my grandma’s house, chances are this show would be playing at some point haha. The episode I remember the most is the one with the dragon.

      I used to love catching this on a TV channel early in the morning before having to go out to the school bus stop.

      Do you mean Taz Mania or the original Taz shorts (Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies)?

    Alfred Jodocus Kwak

    It’s a Dutch show that was beautifully drawn and animated in Japan. It still looks fantastic and it takes you seriously as the material is quite mature. It’s about ww2, sort of like deep space 9. There’s a lot of world exploration and adventure and it adresses societal issues. The only bummer is that the gender norms are quite old fashioned so it might not be appropriate for your kids based on your views.

    For pure nostalgia, the answer would be Franklin.

    For the wacky antics it’d definitely be a tie between Ed Edd n’ Eddy and Codename Kids Next Door. What other shows can you get a cursed telephone that causes suffering and an elevator made of junk that leads to the moon for EEnE? Or for KND have a whole zoo filled with kids as the exhibits so childless parents can throw peanuts at them while also having an episode where a man who looks like a baby use his cigar to connect to a global satellite web to try and turn everyone else into babies?

      Pluto TV is missing out in not making a deal with whoever the owner of CN is, those classics deserve their spot there…

      In the meantime I am happily using DizqueTV to make my own channels 😂
