Please try your best to narrow it down to THREE! Can you recall which shows on TV feel synonymous with your youth? Can be your childhood phase, your adolescent phase, etc. - whatever you define as your youth!
For me: Jackie Chan Adventures, The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Pokemon
- Daria
- TNG
- South Park
The Simpsons
Power Rangers
Buffy The Vampire Slayer.
These are from young child up to late teens/20s
Avatar the Last Airbender

Spongebob
DragonBall Z
Ed, Edd, n Eddy

ReBoot! That brings back memories!
In chronological order from kid to teen:

Dragonball Z introduced me to anime which became a life long enjoyment.
Clarissa explains it all exposed me (a guy) to more female lead content and I learned a bit more about other perspectives.
Captain Planet introduced me to the idea that we’ll never really stop pollution because super heros aren’t real lol
Hey Arnold
My So-Called Life
Captain Planet
Three’s Company

Are You Afraid of the Dark? Animaniacs Rugrats

Considering I forgot about it and got back into it, bringing back memories, first slot definitely goes to Franklin.
I’d definitely say second would have to go to a show like Ed Edd n Eddy since I used to watch way too much of it, I think…
And third would absolutely be a toss up since I watched way too many cartoons growing up. So I’d probably have to go with Death Note since it’s the first anime I recognized as anime instead of just a cartoon back when I was in freshman year highschool.
Edit:
Someone mentioned Invader Zim and that would definitely be a contender because that show made me start to like weird and sometimes disturbing things. Here’s looking at you, Dark Harvest. Also saw an Angry Beavers mention. Definitely a close 3rd since beavers are my favorite animal thanks to that show and Franklin.
