the Littles
Fraggle Rock

...and I remembered after seeing the titles in other posts:
a few eps of Animated Star Trek
Warner Bros. cartoons
Flintstones
the Jetsons
Tom and Jerry
Happy Days
My Three Sons
(don't think I ever really watched Leave it to Beaver)
Dennis the Menace
Man from UNCLE (one of several shows myself and my sister got grounded 
many times from watching for play-acting scenes therefrom)
Get Smart (might've been a bit later, depends when Nickelodeon added it 
to their lineup)
Wheel of Fortune
Inspector Gadget
ALF (the live-action)

Duck Tales, Chip 'n' Dale, Tail Spin, that batch was more around middle 
school, segue into MacGuyver, Star Trek: TNG, Time Trax, Babylon 5, 
Space Rangers, ST:DS9, seaQuest, Earth 2, et cetera.

Rather loathed Ren & Stimpy and Rocko's Modern Life sufficiently on my 
own to not need much encouraging to not watch.  Simpsons and Tool Time 
were, early in their runs, also on the 'not allowed to watch' list, due 
to coarse humour.  Smurfs?  That not only has magic, it has Black Magic 
(thank you, Gargamel).  RIGHT OUT!  (I think I remember watching bits of 
it here and there, though)
