I can remember GoBots, and when I tried to rewatch the film, I turned it off real quick, wishing Megatron would have showed up to tear them apart.
I don't remember seeing any Voltron, it would seem something I would have watched.
I can remember more obscure crap like that loose followup to Thunderbirds.
There was this one I will gladly throw lemmings off cliffs to honour Walt Disney to get an answer to, and I can't remember what it was called. I thought it might be Lensman, but no. I'm fairly certain it was not Star Blazers/Space Battleship Yamato. It was definitely late 70s-mid 80s, they all have that jerky look pre-Akira. It was definitely a space opera one with big ships.
There was one Dr Dolittle type but not sure that was the name.
One crappy one with fuzzy things and crystals.
Weird, because I could definitely remember The Small One (see, this is on-topic for thread), but not shows that were on every frickin week.
Are there any you remember seeing without really remembering anything?

The first one I remember which wasn't just a Saturday morning cartoon was Johnny Quest (the original). I loved that one because there were plenty of cool monsters.
I vaguely remember Fireball XL5 which was one of the very few British shows airing in syndication in the US. Team America: World Police brought those memories back.
In the mid-1980s, I was in hospital once for a few weeks. There were two patients per room and we had to share the tv. My roommate was this black man who was 95 years old and about to lose a leg. Here was a man who was born around 1890 and he was the biggest Voltron fan you've ever seen. He had to watch it every day. Then we would discuss it afterwards.

 EDIT: Or, now that I'm thinking about it... The lesser known incarnation of "Voltron" - which didn't involve the five "lion"bots that formed Voltron.... but 3 teams of 5 bots that formed Voltron... with 15 main cast members, it was rather "space opera"-y.

Hmm, I remember "Quack Pack" and "Goof Troop" back when Disney was trying to compete with "Animaniacs" in the comedy department, and failed hard. "Gargoyles" was still the shizznit back in the day.
Reaching way WAY back I remember there was an Alf Cartoon. Then there was that Mighty Mouse cartoon that was made by one of the guys who'd go on to do Ren and Stimpy. There there was "Ghostbusters", not "The Real Ghostbusters" based on the movie, the one with the gorilla based on the 70's TV show. There was "Galaxy High", i remember watching it, but I can't recall a single episode. Then there was Gravedale High, which was basically the same show only Universal Horror themed. I remember that more because it came out a few years later. There was a Where's Waldo show In liked a lot.
I remember one of the few consolations for starting school in September was we got new SAT/AM cartoons

[cheers] I think I recall Silverhawks, its release date would have put it on air when I was in England. Most of Prog's earliest TV recollections are from 1983-mid-1986 when I was first in Germany. The channel for Forces families would combine programmes from all terrestrial UK channels. Luckily, as we were near the Dutch border, we could watch Dutch channels, as they only subtitled English language programmes, except for animation in some cases. Also fortunately, the old man got us our first video player out there. Introducing Prog to movies! |

BATTLE OF THE PLANETS!!! I forgot about that one... Money says that's the one. Wow, must be 30 odd years since I'd seen that, used to love that when I was a kid. Another show I used to like was the moomins, I remember it as being a bit creepy. www.youtube.com/watch?v=utXbpKrWRBs |
