I watch

Fairly Odd Parents

Bleach (Japanese version, with subtitles not really a kids show)
Naruto. (sometimes in english and sometimes in japanese with subtitles)

I've been watching wolverine and the x-men recently, and i occasionally watch Pokemon and Dani Phantom.

I watch the Boomerang channel every now and then because it has many of the old cartoons from Cartoon Network that I used to love watching. Some of my favorite Cartoon Network shows are:
Ed, Edd, 'n Eddy
Dexter's Laboratory
Johnny Bravo
Powerpuff Girls
X-Men: Evolution
Looney Tunes

These shows still air every now and then and I usually still watch them. I also really like Rugrats, but right now it only airs at five in the morning on Sundays!

I don’t watch children’s cartoons anymore, partially because the cartoons of this generation don’t interest me, and partially because I’m a college graduate trying to get a job. However, I do not regret watching kids’ cartoons during the 1990’s and 2000’s. I didn’t have many friends growing up, and I sometimes felt that my classmates weren’t the kind of people one should befriend. Animated programs were my escape from the mundaneness and stress of life. Whether the cartoons were old or new for their time, silly and surreal or serious and realistic, sci-fi or fantastical, American or foreign, I would watch them and – with a few exceptions – I would enjoy them. They were my childhood, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

The majority of "kid" shows today are largely tailored towards older audiences, so it's not at all uncommon for any of them to attract such. I know a lot of kids, but honestly, I know far more adults who are into shows like 'Gravity Falls', 'Adventure Time', 'Regular Show', 'Steven Universe', etc., and for good reason, because they're genuinely engaging and funny shows with solid writing, rather than just a vehicle to sell toys or something.

Admittedly, I love children's media and have long wanted to break into it, whether creatively or via voice-over acting, so I tend to look at kids' shows in a much different and more critical light, but I would honestly still be watching shows like 'Gravity Falls' and 'Steven Universe' because they're really better than most live-action shows on TV nowadays.

Depends on what you mean, I do not watch shows for like really young kids like what they have on PBS in the mornings...but I will watch animated movies and have seen plenty shows/movies I like that kids could probably watch to(they just may not get some of the more adult humor until they are older). I did/do like dragon ball z, not the new re-dubbed version they recently made but the original and do not think its for a specific age group.

Oh, yeah!! I love cartoons----right now, my favs, are: "Jane and the Dragon", "Syd, the Science Kid", and "Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends", and I used to watch "The Flintstones", and "The Jetsons", all-the-time. I also like most of Disney's animated movies. Also, I like live-action kids' movies, and TV shows----like, "Teen Kids News", the one about kid inventors, on PBS, and the business show for kids, also on PBS.

I don't really watch anything on TV anymore, but if I see a pre-movie Spongebob episode about to come on, I'll make time for that! (I enjoy some of the post-movie episodes, but I just prefer the older Spongebob more.)

I watch some but a lot of em are canceled shows I occasionally watch. I mostly watch two current 1s & they are Rabbids Invasion & Spongebob but I don't go out of my way to watch the latter.

I'm one of them, I watch kids shows very often. Like cartoons mostly.

Dude, are you kidding me? There are many 'normal' folks who still love to watch some of the old classics. Power rangers, care bears, mighty max.

But my personal fav is Batman The Animated Series. It has a depth to it no other series had.

Who still watches 'Mighty Max'? I mean, 'Power Rangers' and 'Care Bears' have continued to exist in various incarnations and reboots over the last 20 years, but who still remembers 'Mighty Max' other than the kids like myself who had the toys back in the early '90s? The franchise stopped existing by the end of the decade.

Not that I'm criticizing you if you're a 'Mighty Max' fan, but with all the nostalgia that surrounds '90s toys and cartoons, 'Mighty Max' is literally one that I hadn't heard yet. Just seemed like a strange choice.

My dad always complain if I watch cartoons. -_______________________________________-
Yeah, I still watch:
-Teletubbies
-Spongebob Squarepants
-Gravity Falls
-Random Cartoons in Nickelodeon

Basically almost all cartoons in Cartoon Network and Nick (I only like a few in Disney)

My picture probably speaks for itself. LOLZ!! !! !! !! Aside from Pony, I also enjoy watching Avatar: The Last Airbender and the occasional Phineas And Ferb.

I'm obsessed with the last Airbender and Korra series!!

Also big on:
Sweet life on deck
Jessie
Ant farm
Any Pixar movie, from the incredibles to tangaled
How to train your dragon

This could really go on all day but yes, a lot of new shows as well as the ones I grew up on. Lol
