(Episode guide here) Hey Toonies! Welcome back to another fun-filled episode guide! This week, we’re taking a look at Fairly Oddparents! The show, which follows the adventures Timmy Turner, average kid that no one understands and his quirky, wish-granting fairy godparents, was created by Butch Hartman and originally ran from 2001 to 2006. It was later rebooted and followed up with a few live-action movies but we’re not really going to get into that today.
Toonies, it’s time to d-d-d-d-d-d-d-duel! Grab your deck and hold onto the heart of the cards, cause this week, we’re talking YU-GI-OH!
(Episode guide here) Hey dumb babies, welcome back to another Toon Time episode guide! This week, we’re talking all things RUGRATS. The show was created by Arlene Klasky and Gábor Csupó and ran from 1991 to 2004. Each episode chronicles the lives of a group of adventurous babies, lead by the fearless Tommy Pickles. Through adult eyes, the plot of the show would appear to be rather mundane, but through the babies’ perspective, the viewer is treated to a series of fantastical, imaginative and sometimes terrifying adventures.
(Episode guide here) Hey Toonies! This week, we’re taking a look at another classic Nick cartoon, CATDOG! The series was created by Peter Hannan and ran from 1998 to 2005. The show’s premise focused on Cat and Dog as they navigate life as conjoined (fraternal) twins with opposite personalities.
(Episode guide here) This week, we’re talking about POKÉMON, the anime juggernaut that took over playgrounds and our hearts in the late 90s. The show, based on the Japanese video game and TV series, Poketto Monsutā (or Pocket Monsters), first aired in North America in 1998. The plot follows Ash Ketchum (lol), a 10-year-old (wtf) boy and his friends, Brock and Misty, on their journey to become Pokémon Masters. We get pretty deep into the plot of both episodes this week, so we thought it would be more useful to run through the different Pokémon we mentioned to help initiate you into the Pokéverse. Don’t worry, we won’t turn this into a rap.
(Episode guide here) Hey Toonies! This week, we’re back with a Disney Channel classic: The Weekenders! The show, created by Doug Langdale, is set in the fictional city of Bahia Bay and chronicles the adventures that four friends, Tino, Tish, Carver and Lor, get up to on, you guessed it - the weekend!

(Episode guide here) Egads, Toonies! We’re back after a short hiatus to bring you an episode on PINKY AND THE BRAIN! The show was created by Tom Ruegger and produced by Steven Spielberg, so you know it’s dope AF! It ran from 1995-1998 for a total of 65 episodes, but the laboratory mice whose genes had been spliced also made appearances in The Animaniacs and in Pinky, Elmyra and the Brain.
(Episode guide here) This week, we took a look at the Nickelodeon classic, Hey Arnold! The show was created by Craig Bartlett and ran for 100 episodes from October 7, 1996, to June 8, 2004. Its stories centred around the everyday life of its titular character, Arnold, along with his friends and family. While it was quite often very funny, it didn’t shy away from dealing with more serious themes including loss, identity and difficult family dynamics. Shit could get real deep on this show!! It made me cry multiple times as a youngster.
(Episode guide here) Hey Toonies! This week we take a look at one of our favourite Saturday morning staples, RECESS. This week, we each cover one 10-minute segment each. it gets heavy in this one!
(Episode guide here) This week, we’re back with The Wild Thornberrys, the toon that followed the Thornberry family on wild adventures across the globe as they filmed their famous nature show. The youngest daughter, Eliza, can talk to animals (Baby Megan’s dream) so that leads to some fun shenanigans as well. The show was created by Arlene Klasky and Gàbor Csupó, the duo who brought us The Rugrats, and ran on Nickelodeon from 1998 to 2004.
(Episode guide here) This week, we’re revisiting one of our favourite Cartoon Network series, Dexter’s Laboratory. The show was created by Russian-American animator/writer/director, Genndy Tartakovsky and ran for four seasons from 1996 to 2003 (with a 3-year hiatus between seasons 2 and 3). We discussed several of Tartakovsky’s influences, including UPA (United Productions of America).
(Episode guide here) Episode 2!! We made it! What a milestone. Hopefully, you’re still here, because we are discussing a doozy of a cartoon this week. If you grew up in Canada in the 90’s/early aughts, chances are, you watched YTV and if you watched YTV, chances are you’ve seen at least one episode of Yvon of the Yukon, the harrowing tale of a French explorer who, after becoming lost at sea, is frozen into a block of ice, only to be defrosted by a local dog’s need to pee 300 years later.
(Episode guide here) This time we look back on three episodes that really left their mark on us as kids. As it stands now, most of these things seem pretty silly but there are more sinister themes that still remain.
