Here's a confession:
I got into Fraggle Rock when I was in college. That's right -- college.
I was too old when FR was first released to dive right in; I was thirteen, and everybody knows that when you're thirteen, such things as Fraggle Rock are "lame." (Yes, I was a very foolish teenager.) Then, when I was an undergrad, TNT picked up the show and I was glued to every episode. Kind of funny how we love things as kids, reject them as teens, and then fall in love with them again (or, in my case, for the first time) as adults.
So these aren't necessarily my favorite kids' shows I watched when I was a kid; they are simply my favorite kids' shows, then and now.
The Muppet Show (then and now)
Fraggle Rock (now)
The Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Show (and all shows airing classic WB cartoons) (then and now)
Animaniacs (now)
Freak-a-Zoid (now)
Darkwing Duck (now)
Jim Henson's The Frog Prince (then and now)
Jim Henson's Storyteller (now)
Justice League (now)
Sesame Street (then)
The Electric Company (then, though I confess to loving those new DVDs)
