Yes. I watch the Spiderman cartoons from the late 60's, Spongebob Squarepants and Rik and Morty (although I suspect that is more for adults).

Invader zim is still fun, as is clone high. Or anything from Studio Ghibili
Studio ghibli films are child friendly (mostly) but not for children explicitly
For nostalgic reasons mostly. Recently, I decided to watch C.O.P.S. again. Cool music but not as entertaining as I remembered.
I will forever love Looney Tunes. It's a classic.
Meep meep
I have VLC streaming Toonami Aftermath on my second monitor at work, pretty much 24/7. It’s always fun to look over and see the weird shit that is playing. I’ve seen commercials for PS1 games, toys that don’t exist anymore, etc… And if I work late, they usually play DBZ Abridged on Wednesday evenings. That was a particularly funny discovery, because my coworker saw DBZ on my monitor, and mentioned that they never got into it. I turned the volume up just in time for us to hear Vegeta complain about getting hit in the dick.
I’m re-watching Gravity Falls right now
A good show is a good show. Doesn’t matter the style or the intended demographic.
As an adult, it's only sad dramas and dreary procedurals for me. No time for fun what with taxes, job, and housework. I'm afraid it's all very serious, adulting. I'm gonna sing the doom song.
I miss you, cupcake.
You're damn right I watch X-Men and Dragonball-Z!
There is a terrible misconception that there must be a point at which you stop enjoying things because it is improper, but at a certain point fuck the haters and enjoy the ride because none of us get out alive.
Depends on the show...some of them, no it's not because it's improper it's because they are super annoying to watch as an adult. I'm thinking stuff like team Umizoomi, Dougie and such.
Stuff for early teens is typically ok, like Steven universe or teen titans or adventure time. But when you go down to shows for the under 7 crowd...yeah the shows are horrible.
And if someone still enjoys those "horrible" shows at 87, it's okay for them to watch them. That's the point.
An adult is a kid with bills to pay.
I love this. Hit me in the right spot. Thanks.
BLUEY!
I have kids, but I would absolutely watch bluey even if I didn't. I own several bluey shirts.
You know how much Blippi, Wiggles, Brain rot Minecraft/Roblox, Ryan's World I had to go through before we finally watched some Bluey?
Oh my goodness, Bluey is actually good too, it's wild.

Sure. All the stuff the kids watched. Pixar, Dreamworks, and others. Not so much the episodic cartoons, but I’ve seen quite a few of those, too.
"still watch"? i never stopped.
That's what it means to still [do something]
And it's the top comment. I'm dying 😂🤣
Does Thunderbirds count?
Not sure. I often hear Bluey and Phineas & Ferb referred to as kids cartoons, but I find the humor surprisingly mature.
the best ones usually do sneak a little something in for the grown-ups "stuck" watching them.
And there are episodes that are just beautiful works of art. The S3E18 episode of Bingo playing in the rain is just heartfelt to me.
As an adult with kids, yea. When I was single, no.
I just watched several episodes of He-Man from the 80s today
I still watch/watched a few as an adult and really enjoyed them.
Avatar: The Last Airbender
The Legend of Korra
The Dragon Prince
She-Ra (the new one)
Tron: Identity
My girlfriend and I watch My Little Pony while we eat dinner sometimes. I also occasionally put cartoons on as background noise, like SpongeBob, Regular Show, Adventure Time, Courage the Cowardly Dog, Ed Edd and Eddy, etc.
My Plex homepage is pretty funny because the continue watching section is The Boys, My Little Pony, Better Call Saul, etc. Pretty big discrepancy there lol
Excluding anime (which I watch regularly) the newest cartoon I watched was Star vs. the Forces of Evil. I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone looking to get back into cartoons.
But the best cartoon I’ve ever watched was avatar the last airbender. Not many rise to that level of quality so its unfair to set the bar there.
If you haven't already I would also recommend the other kids shows in the same demographic as Star.
Gravity falls, Amphibia and the Owl House
I've been wanting to rewatch Star vs. The Forces of Evil. I love that show. What do you think of it so far?
I love good animation, so I keep up with the latest films, most of which are for kids, but that's okay.
I also still love old Looney Tunes shorts.
Yup. I also watch Power Rangers and Super Sentai.
Well, you'd have to define what a kids show is and what a mature show is.
bruh, I'm currently adding all my favourites to my NAS, then watching them in order.
Saturday mornings have been clutch now
@Vader it's all we really watch... life is real enough....
there is a sprinkling in some cheap reality tv like chopped or bar rescue... oh and some comedies... but nothing super serious.

Yes, but: I'm a parent.
Adventure Time and Avatar were good.
Over the Garden Wall. Wish there was than once season.
I have kids, so yes, I watch kids' cartoons. Today it was DuckTales.
Without kids, I probably wouldn't watch any tv except what my wife wants to watch. I'd always rather be playing a video game.
I watch plenty of animated stuff but not specifically kids stuff. Movies I would, shows not so much.
Books, though? Some of the best written and most interesting books I've read as an adult were labeled as YA books.
Never mind - looking through the comments at what is called kid cartoons, yes I do watch them.
Oh yes, both.
I love Star Wars animated series in particular.
I only ever eatch cartoons, everything sucks so cartoons make everything better. So much so that I even want my own cartoon. I've been developing a pitch document that I'd like to pitch to a company that I've been talking to.
