What TV shows did you watch as a kid?
Wow, where to start…
There were so many TV shows I grew up with as a kid! From the preschool days of Treehouse, to the classics on Nickelodeon, Disney Channel, Cartoon Network, and even some anime
I really had a wide mix of shows that shaped my childhood.
Ah, the good old days….back when TV felt a little more magical, before it started to feel like content was being rushed out more for quantity than quality.
If I had to break it down, I’d group my favorites by the networks I watched the most:
