It’s just that somehow we don’t vibe with Chota Bheem and Roll No.21. The topic isn’t even debatable because we know our cartoons were the BEST. Just kidding xD.

Even if you don’t belong to the 90s generation, don’t be disheartened. You can always binge-watch them over the internet and witness for yourself how great these shows are!


Tom And Jerry


Well, well, well, make way for the legendary show that made everyone laugh without dialogues from the two main characters Tom and Jerry. Tom is a cat that goes by the name Thomas and is always up for eating the mischievous mouse, Jerry. The episodes are short but are way too hilarious with Jerry outsmarting Tom at every step, be it getting rid of all mousetraps like a pro or getting Tom in trouble. Even afterward many series were made which were equally amazing and funny consisting of Future technology and longer episodes, or be it Tom & Jerry in their childhood, the cartoon never fails to amaze and holds a special place in the heart of every kid who has watched it even once in their lifetime.


Looney Tunes


This is a considerably broader category that consisted of Bugs Bunny, Tweety & Sylvester, and many other characters part of  Looney Tunes. Each episode was so amazing and full of surprises. There were several characters based upon different animals, birds, and even a martian. Contrary to the previous one, the characters used to have dialogues and what fun it was to watch it while having your evening snacks. All the characters were even seen together in their preschool version which was run by Granny. They used to teach valuable lessons that each one of has enjoyed while growing up.


Swat Kats


One of the most amazing shows is loved by many that have a special place in their hearts as well as ours. Swat Kats is based in a fictional metropolis of Megakat city where Razor and T-Bone were members of the paramilitary force. However, with the advent of a drastic incident that led to the release of the main villain of the series Dark Kat, the two were removed from their services and deployed in the city’s military salvage yard to pay for their mistakes. They, on the other hand, made various weaponry vehicles out of the junk and started on a journey of protecting the city from villains. They kept their identity hidden and fight off with all the dangers to the city with the ultimate goal of defeating Dark Kat. The show is a great watch and you should definitely look out on Google and watch this show if you haven’t already.


Richie Rich


The show where the protagonist goes by the name Richie and is as the name suggests rich. He’s just not rich, he’s very rich. The amazing theme where every single thing is made in the dollar sign to represent money and yet the sweet and humble Richie who helps others, along with his dog and robotic maid that accompany him in his adventures. You can witness many amazing inventions and keep on getting fascinated with all the wealth owned by the family and attempts by various people to steal it. This show holds a special place in our hearts too.


Powerpuff Girls


The entry song is something many people still remember where a Scientist was doing an experiment and upon mixing some alien ingredients that led to the birth of three incredibly strong girls with unique abilities called as The Powerpuff Girls. The show is an American superhero animated series. The three girls Blossom (pink) Bubbles (blue) and Buttercup (green) used to follow their daily routine while also protecting the town in case of emergencies by the Mayor with their powers when alien creatures used to attack the town. It used to have some amazing humor that engaged people from age groups of 7 to even 37. Remembering the show is just way too nostalgic, isn’t it?


Dexters laboratory

This show featured Dexter who was an amazingly intelligent scientist and inventor at an age where we all were just watching cartoons. But his parents aren’t aware of this fact, not even aware that there’s a secret laboratory in his room where he does all his experiments. However, life has never been peaceful for Dexter, thanks to his elder sister Dee Dee who always finds out a way to sneak into his laboratory and somehow foil his experiments. The show used to show how Dexter dealt with keeping everything secret and making sure he is able to experiments in peace makes it a fun journey with each episode. The great thing with such shows is that you don’t need to follow the series daily to understand. Just watch in a while and have fun.


We are sure that these shows must have reminded you of the good old times when life used to be calm and peaceful, and the only burden we used to feel was school and studies. But as we embarked on our own journeys all these innocent moments fade away in the race of life. Hence it is important to cherish every moment and live the best of it every time. Go watch all these episodes if you wanna take a break from the stressful environment around you and relax while remembering the happy childhood days.
