I didn't understand a lot of them but yas.
I never really watched cartoons, except for Disney animated films, I got bored watching Rugrats and things like that.

 

[umbrellabeach]

Barney the Dinosaur (when I was very young)
Doug
Rugrats
Arthur
Reading Rainbow
Clifford the Big Red Dog
Spongebob Squarepants (I still watch that! =D)
Jimmy Neutron
Cyberchase

Later, starting when I was about 12 or 13 (just a few years ago, actually) and had moved, I started watching Disney shows, because I pretty much discovered Disney after I moved and started watching the movies.
Timon & Pumbaa
The Little Mermaid
The Legend of Tarzan
House of Mouse

Now, I watch DuckTales on YouTube and am planning to start watching Goof Troop after. I love Disney shows! I wish I'd watched them when I was little.

Poirot, Murder she wrote, Colombo. There's a time in my life when I also watched Mexican, Brazilian and msybe some other Latin American countries soap. I got bored pretty quickly though. There're some Russian shows that most people probably have never heard of, so I won't mention them. Donald Duck (don't remember the name, with "muscular" duck with red hair; chipmunks...
Friends... Law and Order...
And of course - X files!
Wsit, what was the name of that show...
Moonlighting? Yep, it was...
Oh, how could I forget the Charmed!!! I was in my late teens, 20s when I watched some of those shows, but it should still qualify, considering I'm 36 now

 

[wyverary]

My parents were pretty restrictive of my TV time, so the only two I can name off the top of my head are Sesame Street, and Mr. Roger's Neighborhood...both of which I still think were wonderful, and excellent influences on a young person.

You watched infomercials, too? Lol, I thought I may have been the only one! I remember all the Suzanne Summers exercise stuff, the "lose weight by breathing in a particular way" one lol, the stuff for ponytails, Hooked on Phonics, and last but not least, the great Tony Little and his exercise machine.

And...the Flowbee Hair Cutting System

This is too awesome.

 

[Judge]

Amusing to see some of you mentioned "The Wonder Years". I watched it as well, but as an adult- not a child. However as for those particular years, I lived them at precisely the same time the character Kevin Arnold (Fred Savage) did.

I just didn't have a girlfriend named "Winnie" back then...
