Parents: What cartoons, etc. do you love and only watch because your kids do?

[reveal]

As kind of a follow up to this thread:

What cartoons/movies/songs/etc. do you find yourself enjoying with your kids knowing that the only reason you watch them is because you have children?

For me, it's The Fairly Oddparents and Spongebob. I love those shows but I know I wouldn't watch them if it weren't for Duncan.

Its the other way around. Our kids were outside types, or deep into books, and we were the ones introducing them to cartoons. Still are. One is 18, the other 13, and we inour 40s are watching more cartoons than they do.

My son doesn't care for Spongebob, but I do...there's just enough weirdness that really appeals to me. The only ones we enjoy in common are Justice League Unlimited, Looney Toons, and Batman: the Animated series (Mark Hamill is the best Joker EV-AR).

I am forced to admit that I love Kim Possible, although I probably never would have seen it if not for my daughter. It has a Clerks cartoon feel to it while being clean enough for kids, and is frequently hilarious no matter how old you are.

Kim Possible is hott.

I'm 28 and still living with my parents. We get Cox Digital Cable, and I watch Aladdin whenever I get the chance with my mom. She absolutely loves the show.

House of Mouse (Mainly because of my 2-year old)
Teen Titans (okay, okay, I'd probably watch this even if I didn't have kids)
Totally Spies (I have two girls so we end up watching some girly cartoons)
Spongebob Squarepants (Mainly because of my 2-year old)
Fairly Oddparents
Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy

I'm sure there are others...

Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy

That sounds interesting...what's it about?

"Happy-go-lucky Billy and cynical Mandy become best friends with the Grim Reaper after winning an otherwordly limbo contest against the messenger of Death."

Well, I love Spongebob, but I never would have originally watched it, if not for my kids (who also love it).

Most shows, I would consider watching, kids or not. Kim Possible is one I would proabably pass on, if not for my kids. I'm not very taken with Kids Next Door, but my kids seem to like it. The whole family loves Teen Titans, but we'd watch that without the kids, anyhow. The same applies to Justice League (although I've nixed a few episodes for them to watch until they're older).

Generally, any show my kids like, I like. There are few shows that I won't watch that they will.

It's more the case that I introduce my favorite shows to them, like the Johnny Quest box set, Spiderman 1967 set, Fraggle Rock (relase the whole season, darn it!) and so forth.
