You know? I always thought the third gen of Robotech was the lamest. I liked 1 a lot, and honestly I can't remember what was the difference between 1 and 2. 2 Was Rick Hunter's son, and 3 is granddaughter or something?
I know when I was really young I really enjoyed Tail Spin, Gummi Bears, and Carebears. Later on I remember liking Rocko's Modern life, Doug and a few others. I'm still having trouble coming up with a top five though. I don't know about you guys, but I watched a shit load of TV :P

3 was the return to planet earth. Rick Hunter has been split off from the Main group, who had found earth. Earth had been completely infested by the Invid. Scott Bernard went out to fight them, leaving his girlfriend behind on a giant transforming battleship. The battleship was utterly destroyed, along with Scott Bernard's girlfriend in the first episode. Scott's ship received too much damage, so he crash-landed on earth. The episodes were very desolate, filled with loneliness, despair, but a hope born from discovery. Very Madmax-like with lots of "red-dawn" type anarchy and it rocked. I Never really got into the prior generation episodes with Rick Hunter, Dana Sterling, etc.
plus sooooo many others, and stuff i cant even remember although I do remember seeing Iria: Zeiram the Animation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xm7d3HX7gkY on the Scifi Channel way back when they did a week long tribute 1 movie a day early 90's according to thier wiki history!
I realize this thread has been silent for a while.
But how can you not put: Fat Albert, The Great Space Coaster, Hong Kong Fuey, Blue Falcon, Hannah Barbara's: Laugh Olympics, or Fraggle Rock up there?
I would of said "Star Blazers" as well, but someone was cartoon savvy enough to already mention it. Star Blazers had it all. Japanese depth and complexity for storyline and a space theme with the most awesome "Wave Motion Gun" and the aesthetics of modern day space Destroyer Yamato. Unfortunately the anime was more in a stylized Disney with poor depth on the color. Still for being hand drawn frame by frame, this was by far and away the best of the best for the 80's.
