Show your appreciation for old cartoons or americanized anime here.
Basically, post stuff that could've been on the Fox Box.

Can that be considered "old"? Granted it IS circa 1994/5 but well, Wesk never did give us a cut off date.

There's a system for this :
Ancient = Anything made prior to your birth year Old (WAAAAY Back In The Day) = Anything made after your birth, and before you started school Back In The Day = Anything made during elementary school ages That Shit I Masturbated To = Anything made during middle school ages Gay = Anything made after middle school ages
For me :
Ancient = ____ - 1991 Old (WAAAAY Back In The Day) = 1992 - 1997 Back In The Day = 1998 - 2003 That Shit I Masturbated To = 2004 - 2006 Gay = 2007 - ____
For you :
Ancient = ____ - 1985 Old (WAAAAY Back In The Day) = 1986 - 1991 Back In The Day = 1992 - 1997 That Shit You Masturbated To = 1998 - 2000 Gay = 2001 - ____
So it counts for most of us, but not for you.

Very well then! Continue onward young Kanden! And forget not the Street Shark's Fossilized Friends, the EXTREME DINOSAURS! (Gawd damnit did I love dinosaurs or what?)
I have a mission for you tots! I'm in need of information concerning a show. I don't remember it's name, but here is what I do remember. So listen up, perhaps you can help me solve this.
The show debuted roughly around 1998 or 1998 and featured traditional animation with some CGI. I get that it was an anime, too. But I can't be 100% Certain on that. And no, I'm not talking about Dinosaur king.
From what I remember, the show's premise was this: A group of children discover that some of the fossils in their local museum are actually robotic protectors of the earth, and that whenever they're needed they become robotic warriors. I remember that they would go from skeletal looking to chrome coated bones with a clear, colored body. I only vaguely remember cause I only saw it a handful of times before everyone started to cancel shows due to the Y2k scare.

Trigger's system is spot-on.
However I kind of cheated as I was mainly watching older nickelodeon shows. I have fond memories of Angry Beavers, Courage, Rocko's Modern Life, Invader Zim, early Spongebob, Kablam!, Aah! Real Monsters...I'm sure I'm forgetting a few classics.
I only liked a few Cartoon Network shows, and I never got into Toonami or whatever. I remember Dexter's Lab well...that's really all I can recall from CN though. =/

I didn't forget Kyo, however it wouldn't be fair for me to post every nostalgic thing I remember, then there'd be no one else to post. :p

Yes! I must have an edge! For the world of tomorrow, nostalgic information will be as valuable as the finest diamonds! He who controls the nostalgia, controls the universe! Mwahahaha!
But no, seriously I did a lot of research into popculture of the 80's and 90's, and was a big big big fan of the "I love the 19XX's" series, which attributed a lot to what I remember from back then.
