All of Disney’s late 80s early 90s cartoons were top shelf quality. And their theme songs were a part of the package. Goof Troup, Ducktales, chip n dale, dark wing, heck even bonkers had a good theme song.

But I’ll pick something different and say animaniacs.

 

[Jezan]

I was going to say Captain Planet, but as much as I love it.
Nothing comes close to:
Take a classic theme that's good and make it beyond epic.

 

[TheShadowLord]

to me, these will be the best animated intros

Now I want to watch johnny quest. Never heard of the real adventures maybe its good.
Captain planet theme song is probably why I'm a Republican Red neck POS. That song makes me want to destroy mother nature and blow my head off

 

[LaughingStock]

Not a big fan of this one but the song is great.


I loved this though.


So many great intro songs in the 80s. But i'll post just these two.

The thing that made me think of this topic was looking for cartoon on Hulu. I noticed in kids tab there is a 'celebrate diversity' tab which made me gag after clicking it I see Curious George. Now I'm offended
I'm so confused

 

[DiscoJer]

Ducktales was very catchy.

And the Johnny Quest intro was pretty bad ass. Probably scare the hell out of kids today though.

 

[Dunki]

Probably this one. back then German opening were really awesome

That's probably the coolest thing ever. I usually think English tunes made into other languages stink but that was all kinds of turtle power

My favorite German album was by Bethlehem - Schatten Aus Ser Alexanders Welt
Have you heard it?

It was pretty good, Jonny and co. looked way more badass than before, I even though they were 18 or older but he is still a teen. The show didn't age so well thanks to the CGI segments.

 

[Halfman The Imp]

The Thundercats intro was epic

Darias friend with red coat, black hair with shaved sides was sooo hot. She's all I've wanted physically in a woman as a kid until now.

Thanks for posting something current.
I had no intention of the thread being exclusive to 70s-90s cartoons(though they are the best!)
Threads not only limited to cartoons.

If your jam is Friends, or how I met your mother let us know!

Edit:

A lot of my favorites have already been said, but here's another solid one:



I especially love the animation of Beetlejuice coming out of the grave at the beginning.

[RokkanStoned]

American cartoon shows in the 80s and 90s tended to have awesome intros.

lol
I knew the Captain Planet themesong by heart just so I could annoy my brother with it.
That said, the orchestra/guitar tune from the actual intro sounds nice, but Kwame can't stop talking over it and I don't think a clean version exists.


Also from what I remember from the "real" adventures of Johnny Quest is that they were really pushing that 3D VR stuff because 3D graphics were up and coming. Was neat back then, but now it just looks kinda silly.

The real question, season 1 or season 2?!
I always preferred S1

Batman The Animated Series has been already mentioned. Here are few others:

Extreme Ghostbusters


Superman The Animated Series

 

[TheShadowLord]

That one was is good too. Man, I hope WB start working on a blu ray release set for Superman TAS and Batman Beyond once they are done with Batman TAS

 

[flibbertyjibbert]

My Little Pony - Friendship is Magic

 

[It's Jeff]

I can't think of a show that's less faithful to the source material, but I submit Pole Position:



That opening synthesizer riff? The urgency of the shitty lyrics? So good.

 

[lil puff]

something I just realized is that none of the Hanna Barbara cartoon intros were memorable. I cannot remember any of them!

My fav was Sanford and Son and Good Times

 

[OH-MyCar]

I'm in my mid-30s and still know the lyrics of that by heart due to how many times I watched it as a kid. That intro was ridiculously bad-ass at the time.

My favorites:

 

[LordOfChaos]

We counting anime?

 

[bitbydeath]

 

[Codes 208]

When I was little, this was my jam. Such a shame too, mediocre movie but a underratedly good cartoon spin-off


If anime counts then I also got to go with these two



(obviously a bit controversial, since its the Faulconer score, but this was my childhood, deal with it)

 

[Sinfamy]

Jonny Quest (90's) is legit.

 

[Sapiens]

One Punch Man is the best I've ever seen.
