The animals did die a lot :(
I clearly remember one scene in particular, where one of the snakes is half torn to shreds or something and kills a blue fox. And that's just one of many.
This is what cartoons should be like :D
Oh, I remembered another one (not Nickleodeon) but it was brilliant - you don't get cartoons like this anymore - the Animals of Farthing Wood.
This is what I can remember -
X-Men, Spider-Man, Angry Beavers, Rocko's Modern Life, the Wild Thornberries, Rugrats, Aaaah Real Monsters, Hey Arnold, CatDog, Doug, Aladdin, Hercules, Pepper Ann... I think that's about it.
It's almost like all the creative people left or started doing live-action stuff :(
Which is a real pity - our generation is the only one that really experienced a good era of cartoons. 60's had Hannah Barbera and stuff, but we had Nickelodeon, some of the Disney stuff... it was like a Golden...
So many good shows from the day :D
I remember an episode of Catdog where they dreamed they were two different people and ended up being friends by the end anyway xD
