The only show I still like is Tom and Jerry, the old original one.. But the other programs, I have grown out of.. How about you?? Still have the kid in you??? Cartoon Network?? Pogo?? Disney??Well, if you are a parent of little kid(s), then you will be forced to watch them, as you have no option and your kid wont move out of the television.. So what category do you fall in??

Yes, but not so often, kid's programs are very interesting and funny, they usually can make me laugh and feel easy, sometimes if you unhappy about your daily things, you watch these TV shows, You won't feel so unhappy any more.

i still watch a lot of kids programming. actually i was watching some of the quote unquote educational shows to do some research for myself. i wanted to see how many of them were actually teaching a lesson so that when i become a parent i can actually already know. the scary thing is i watched an episode of teletubbies and i found it confusing as to how they could call it educational when all they do is talk in jibberish and in the episode i watched they ran around a wall that appeared out of no where until the wall disappeared and then the show was over. i don't understand how they can call that educational. sorry i was a little perturbed at this and wondered how many children were being dumbed down by this show. i gained more respect for shows like barney which i hated as a child because at least they have some kind of life lesson in every episode. thank you for taking the time to read my response hopefully it wasn't too annoying :) ~rachel

I watch some of the older stuff with my son. He likes Scooby Doo, Spongebob, Ben10, Transformers and Power Rangers, but we have Boomerang and Cartoon Network, so he gets to watch some of the stuff that I used to love. And if it's not on TV, we go to www.veoh.com and he watches all of the old Transformers stuff, along with He-Man that isn't available on TV. He actually loves Tom & Jerry,too. I can always count on him to help me remember what I used to love as a kid.

Yup because I have kids, I am forced to watch cartoons like Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, Tom and Jerry, Ice Age, Batman, and a lot more. When I'm alone sometimes I watch Tom and Jerry, thats when I really want to laugh. I also have a friend, an officemate who even at his age, he is still fond of watching Tom and Jerry. So I believe it wont go with the age, TV shows could be considered a show for a lifetime...

Yes, with my kids. I still enjoy Tom & Jerry and so does my husband...lol.. They like Totally Spies and Kim Possible which isn't half bad either and I do sit and watch with them now and then.

Thanks for responding.. But I think animated movies like ratatouille are more adult-centric.. I do love them but I don't think kids will enjot them

I am in the have no choice category I am afraid!! I have 4 kids whose lives revolve around the cartoon channels. But I learn as I go along, I can now sing the spongebob squarepants theme all the way through, I know most of the characters in Ben 10 and I am quite getting into jimmy neutron. I also get to relive my childhood with tom and jerry and scooby doo, so it is not all bad!

Hey Benthose, I watch tv with my kids, especially, Dora, the Backyardigans, Sponge Bob and the Disney Channel. I have found myself getting sucked in and will actually stay watching them after the kids leave the room. My daughter and I sing along with Dora and try to do the Backyardigan dances. I'm not sure what that says about me, but I suppose if a show is good, it's good no matter who's watching it. Sponge Bob is especially clever. It's perfectly harmless for children and my kids love it, but there's a whole separate adult level there that the kids don't even get.

I'm a big fan of most Disney movies. I owe about 20, and watch tons of them online all the time. I also like to watch sponge bob. I owe a few seasons of that as well. I'm getting used to lots of the cartons now a days since all my friends have young children. I tend to watch a lot of care bears, teletubbies and DORA. I can not stand DORA. Anymore of it and I might blow a fuse. Care bears aren't so bad. I enjoyed the show when I was younger.

I love kid's TV shows from the 90's or anything from the 90's really. It was a good time period for many things.

I don't really watch cartoons still, but if my kids were watching the smurfs, care bears or Tom and Jerry, I would probably watch it with them just to remember the good old days when I was a kid watching them. I loved the smurfs, they rocked, lol.

Cartoons never die. I think no matter how old a person is, whether they will admit it or not, enjoy cartoons. Most of the cartoons on television today I'm not sure about, but there are a few and of course the classics I still enjoy watching

Hi, I love Tom & Jerry shows and i have plenty of DVD collections of them. I used to watch Swat Cats in Cartoon Network. Lately i do not see it featured at all and am disappointed.
