What did you watch when you were a kid?

(I have a feeling this is going to differ wildly by geography...)

I used to enjoy the following, to varying degrees:

Heman
Thundercats
Transformers
My Little Pony
Care Bears
Mysterious Cities of Gold
Eighty Days Around the World
Jem

Probably more...

Well I had to look some of these up because I had never heard their 
English title :-)

He-man and Thundercats I definitely remember. In fact there must be some 
associated toys still lying around somewhere in a cellar :-) As for the 
others, I do not have accurate memories, but I sure know them. Must have 
been too young...

Being from one of the first French generation widely exposed to japanese 
anime, I must add some of these:

Goldorak
Albator
Saint Seiya (my all time favourite)
Ronin Warriors

I even remember watching "Fist of the North Star", whose diffusion has 
been stopped quite quickly because it was too violent for children. 
Well, I survived :-)

And then there are silly things such as Bioman, that I don't think I 
could endure now, but that I remember watching regularly...

[I really loved the sound when he used the Sword of Omens... I know, 
easily pleased!]

Yup, though I hated the Care Bears. The problem with little sisters is
that when they yell enough, the TV stays on what ever they want to
watch. There was a time when, every day when I came home from grade
school, my sister suddenly wanted to watch the Care Bear Movie. That
stopped for at least 15 years when I told her mom taped over it.

Robotech / Transformers / Go-Bots / Mask all of those blended together
Kimba
Tom and Jerry
Scooby Doo
The Smurfs
Looney Toons
