Top 5: Forgotten (but awesome) 80's Cartoons

note: please don't be lame and take the word "forgotten" too literally. obviously i remember them... and i'm sure a lot of people do. this list was intended to be a nostalgic memory refresh for other 30-something's like me who maybe haven't seen any of these cartoons in 20+ years. if you're a 12 year old who still watches these shows regularly in syndication then this list doesn't apply to you... but thanks for watching.

everyone remembers transformers & g.i. joe, but here are five great 80's cartoons that may have slipped your memory. these are also probably some of the best theme songs too...

#5 Bionic Six
#4 COPS
#3 Dinosaucers
#2 MASK
#1 SilverHawks

@jpayne4040 I loved Tranzor Z and the Gobots. Those two could have easily been on this list.

[jpayne4040]

So, do you remember Tranzor Z or Challenge of the GoBots?

I'm crying from all the nostalgia....I'm 27 now and I've looking all over the net for the complete COPS series if you know where i can find it reply plz. The 80's will never die, long live the old skool cartoons and the real sat mornings of having to wake up at 5am!

They don't make cartoons of this quality anymore.

I'm not a scientist or anything, but I'm pretty sure wings don't work in space.

WOW!!! I had honestly forgotten about Bionic Six. I really liked that cartoon and the rest of the ones that were posted in this set of clips. Thanks for posting.

PS- good choices in terms of theme songs as well.
