You have to admit it, cartoons from the 1990s were amazing compared to the shows they air on television today. The animation, the characters, the stories, in my opinion was the best! Compared to the cartoons airing on Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network today, even though some are exceptional such as Adventure Time and Over the Garden Wall, the programs back in the 90s had meaning and a little bit of imagination. Here are some of my favorite cartoons that I loved watching during my childhood.

1) Rugrats

Who doesn't love a show about babies exploring the world around them, while their parents are clueless about their presence.

2) Captain Planet and The Planeteers

Back in the day when cartoons spread environmental awareness and educated us on how to make better improvements to our land and water.

3) Dexter's Laboratory

When a 10 year-old boy builds and works in a laboratory shows that anything is possible if you set your mind to it.

4) Tiny Toon Adventures

Reliving the days of Bugs Bunny and friends through their younger counterparts.

5) Ed, Edd n' Eddy

Enjoying crazy shenanigans these three boys conjure up, which include scamming neighborhood children of their quarters to buy jawbreakers.

6) Catdog

Who doesn't love a cartoon about a cat and dog conjoined together, asking that childhood question: "How do they go to the bathroom"?

7) Pokémon

Even though Pokémon is still airing today, the Indigo League saga is the true Pokémon for the 90s kids.

8) The Powerpuff Girls

A cartoon about young girls saving the city from destruction is the true definition of girl power!

9) Recess

The adventures of school kids outside the classroom was the best Disney show to watch.

10) Rocket Power

Extreme Sports: Kids Edition.
