A conversation about The Adams Family has brought old Cartoon Intro Music to the forefront.
What are your favourites?
My top 5 (actually six because I couldn't get it down to a top 5)

These are my favourites although Dangermouse, Gadget and Animaniacs would also be in the list.
There were so many great intros for cartoons in the 90s.

There's so many more but they're the ones that sprang instantly to mind as a top 5.

The British thought Ninjas were dangerous role models for our children.

The head of the BBFC at the time also outlawed nunchucks (fuck knows why) so Michaelangelo's fight scenes were cut.

No joke, the word Ninja was thought to inspire kids to become violent Ninjas so they had to change it.

But swords and knives are ok? Lol.
Imagine what would be of your country had the word ninja not be censored. Would probably have US-level violence.

The real n-word. Pokemon had a good theme tune.
DuckTales and Chip 'n' Dale are my favourites.
SuperTed is always worth a watch just to speculate how much drugs the people who came up with the premise were doing at the time.

"A spotty man" always gets me.
Aside from the insanity I like how angry the narrator sounds on "a piece of rubbish!"

The whole Magic Roundabout/Stoner crossover is lame but it is hilarious that they were just given a video of some french puppet show and told to come up with a plot/dialogue that fit.

Arthur fiddled with young children. Look at that jumper and glasses combo.

The World would be much better if they just listened to the simple message in the song.

I wish I never ruined the thought.
But to be honest, it was always this. :cool: No cartoon but well in amongst them.
