This shouldn’t be the answer because it’s not really for kids. But it is, and will always be, The Simpsons.
Every evening at 6pm on UPN I would watch the Simpsons with my dad. I went from watching and understanding Bart to now watching with my daughter and seeing it through Homer’s eyes.
As a kid, I would always flip on the TV for the evening episode of the Simpsons too haha! Except I swear for me it was 5pm.
I’m EST. Maybe you are central time? Bill Nye was on at 5pm on PBS for me
I was never really into cartoons but I enjoyed Pee-wees Playhouse.
I would say Ginga e Kickoff
Jem and the Holograms
Danger Mouse
The Smurfs
The Snorks
The Jetsons
David the Gnome
MarsupilamiCame here to say David the Gnome, just rewatched it recently and loved it. Never met someone else in real life who has ever seen it.
Garfield and Friends
Avatar the last Airbender
Avatar The Last Airbender. I’m in my early 30s and do a rewatch almost every year.
I’ve been needing a rewatch
What happened to Tazmanian Devil?
Do you mean Taz Mania or the original Taz shorts (Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies)?
Mighty Orbots, just for the theme song alone. Now that I think about it I will have that song stuck in my head all day.
Dexter’s Laboratory, Cow and Chicken, Power Puff Girls
Wren and Stimpy?
They were too weird for me in my early teens, I first got them years later.
Between the Lions. There were far too many Dad puns for my little brain to handle. It broke me
SpongeBob. The early seasons were and still are god-tier

Wtf no one said TOM&JERRY??
I used to watch a lot of Boomerang in Latin America, they aired either OG Looney Tunes or Tom and Jerry for 1 hour daily
ah, but only some of it was good. i disliked the czech ones or the ones by chuck jones.
The background art in the early ones was beautiful.
I had a love/hate relationship with that show because I felt so sorry for Tom. Kept watching it though so clearly it did something right.
For pure nostalgia, the answer would be Franklin.
For the wacky antics it’d definitely be a tie between Ed Edd n’ Eddy and Codename Kids Next Door. What other shows can you get a cursed telephone that causes suffering and an elevator made of junk that leads to the moon for EEnE? Or for KND have a whole zoo filled with kids as the exhibits so childless parents can throw peanuts at them while also having an episode where a man who looks like a baby use his cigar to connect to a global satellite web to try and turn everyone else into babies?
