DuckTales invented a new animated wonderland—that quickly disappeared
I can't tell whether the 90s were a little renaissance in animation, or whether it's just my imagination.<p>As gcatalfamo and yareally pointed out, Disney had <i>Duck Tales</i>, <i>Darkwing Duck</i>, <i>Chip n Dale</i> and so on.<p>Meanwhile at Warner Brothers they had <i>Tiny Toons</i>, <i>Animaniacs</i> and of course the excellent <i>Batman: The Animated Series</i>. I rewatched it recently and, unlike a lot of my nostalgic favourites, it has held up beautifully.<p>MTV backed <i>Beavis and Butthead</i> and <i>Aeon Flux</i>. Fox backed <i>King of the Hill</i> and was riding the wave of some of the best of the <i>Simpsons</i>.<p>And let's not forget Klasky Csupo -- most famous for <i>Rugrats</i> and <i>Aaahh!!! Real Monsters</i>, they were also responsible for my favourite "cartoon for grownups", <i>Duckman</i>. I love that show -- if it'd been around for the DVD era we'd probably still be watching it.<p>Edit: and Nickolodeon (forehead smack) with <i>The Ren & Stimpy Show</i> and <i>Rocko's Modern Life</i>.
