Cartoons of the 90s: Part I

All those who were born in the 90s (including me) were really blessed to have a fantastic childhood watching an amazing set of animation stories called CARTOONS. The list is too lengthy to put in a single blogpost. So let’s go back in time and take a tour of the first ten:

Tom Cat attempts to capture Jerry Mouse but rarely succeeds due to Jerry’s cleverness and luck. They symbolize inseparable friendship. 

The Powerpuff girls

The powerpuff girls (Blossom (smarty), Bubbles (cute) and Buttercup (rowdy)) were made by Prof. Utonium by accidentally dropping the chemical X into the formula of making perfect girls. And then on they dedicated their lifes to save the Townsville town from the monstrous Mojo Jojo, Amoeba boys, Ganggreen Gang, HIM, etc. Remember the short Mayor and his curly haired secretary, whose face was never shown!

 

Khele khatron se hardam ye hai "Duck Tales"

It’s the story of adventures of Uncle Scrooge and his three nephews Huey, Dewey and Louie. The amazing gold treasure diver Scrooge McDuck had a pilot Launchpad McQuack, known for his plane crashes++ count each time he flew. There was also an inventor Gyro Gearloose and butler Duckworth and nanny Mrs. Beakley, with her granddaughter Webby. The villains in this series included Magica and Beagle Boys.

Dexter, short and genius, had a secret lab in the house basement. He has tough times keeping his sister, Didi (tall, slim and crazy) out of the lab.

Road Runner: Beep Beep

The signature sound “Beep Beep” reminds of the Road Runner, a fast running ground bird. The Coyote fox repeatedly attempts to catch this bird, but his elaborate plans results in his devices comically backfiring on him in slapstick fashion.

He wears a blue hat with a jingle bell on it and has a pet Bumpy Dog as companion in all his adventures in Toyland.
