Very few cartoons from that period are any good. Extremely low frame rate, very little moving in any given scene, by-the-numbers good v evil hey kids it’s great to do teamwork plotlines. We loved them because we had a limited frame of reference, and we remember them fondly because we remember that we loved them, not the poor production values.

Kids today don’t know they’re born ... all their computer animated stuff is way richer in complexity than anything we ever saw, plus it’s all written by Gen-X’ers who love referencing their own childhoods, so it’s often quite entertaining for adults as well. You should have a look at My Little Pony, where the recurring villain is voiced by John De Lancie and basically is just Q from Star Trek in pony form.
