I'm doing this series, Favorite Cartoons, because I love cartoons. #5 in the series is Johnny Bravo.
Johnny Bravo is a clueless, muscle bound (upper body only. He apparently never works his legs) idiot who is constantly chasing women, always unsuccessfully. He talks like Elvis, has a great yellow Pompadour, and constantly wears sunglasses. He often talks directly to the camera.
Johnny Bravo ran on the Cartoon Network for 67 episodes, from 1997-2001. Although the show was nominated for several awards, it never won.
(Fun Wikipedia Fact: NASCAR driver Kyle Busch once raced a car with Johnny painted on the hood.)
It was, as far as I'm concerned, one of Cartoon Network's funnier cartoons. Johnny might be clueless, but he was easy to root for.

I really liked Johnny Bravo - met a few men who are frightfully like him too especially in their approach to girls

@teamfreak16 yes, one lad was known to all the girls at the university as The Reptile - he was very touchy-feely and made them uncomfortable

That's kind of scary. Are they as "successful" as Johnny is in his pursuit?

I wish it had been on longer than four seasons.

I just didn't care for Johnny Bravo. I think it was the way he was drawn.

That's part of why it's so funny. He never works his legs.

I use to love watching Johnny bravo as a kid on cable vision (Cartoon Network) haha "he never works his legs" so true his upper body looks like he's on steroids but his legs are like a skinny teenage girl. I don't know why he never got any girls since he was a handsome.

That's what made it funny. He couldn't get a girl no matter how hard he tried.
