    Watching Stinky & Dirty right now w/the 4 yr old.  I like it.
    Have it on right now. I’ve worked in and around the trades for 20 years, so I like that it promotes the building things requires using brains.

    Yes, I love the "What if....?"

    All the stuff I grew up watching, I still love (Bugs, Magoo, Felix, Mr. Peabody, etc).  Some of the humor takes on another brilliant level in adulthood.

    I'll leave the newfangled kids' cartoons to the rest of you :)
    Gumby and Pokey were definitely made for adults on hallucinogenics, we was clueless. 

    My son grew up with SpongeBob which was actually enjoyable. But those days are over

    Pokemon was big too - he still likes Pokemon. 
    Once I was old enough to know, I figured out why only Fred & Barney could see & talk to the Great Gazoo.
    :lol:

    While my son was growing up, Bob the Builder and his talking construction equipment was a simplistic view - with an emphasis on 'can we do this? Yes we can!'.   Building up that self confidence was important in a lot of shows. 

    Teletubbbies still fascinates me - tv screens in their bellies, they lived in an upside down space ship, the right outraged that Tinky Winky carried a purse :lol:  & I wonder what happened to the kid whose face was the sun?

    Now my son's Shrek doll is near and dear to my heart as it says 'Hello, my name is Shrek' and I can say "me too!!". My son always got a kick out of that. I still think they owe my family royalties.

    I’m also a fan of Tumble Leaf on Amazon. Lots of problem solving and imaginative play. Its not loud and obnoxious.

    I never connected the two - lol.

    Who knows - maybe Bob the Builder was an unconscious contributor to his campaign slogan. Malia is around the same age as my son.  You may be on to something here....  :giggle:

    SpongeBob Squarepants hit while i was a teenager and was completely adverse to any of that sort of thing, trying to stake my claim as being an adult in this world (I had a long way to go). However, a while ago I watched part of one of the films on Netflix. Is that show really aimed at children? It felt like the whole thing was full of stuff that could be interpreted in multiple ways, in much the same way The Simpsons was constructed.

    Went to the movies today and saw a preview for it. Thought it was a Cars spinoff show or something.

    Just stumbled upon this cartoon with our kids. Some of the episodes are frickin' hilarious. The Marceline vampire ones were great. Picked up seasons 1 and 2 from the library.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    It’s a quality show. My fifth grader loves it and we should all be following Bluey’s life lessons.
