Anyone remember Thunderbirds and Fireball XL5 - the shows done with puppets/marionettes?

Tom & Jerry, Heckle & Jeckle, Popeye (I live about 40 miles from his home in Southern Illiinois), Mighty Mouse, Deputy Dog just to name a few. Also enjoyed many of the cartoons when my children were kids.
I still enjoy watching those old cargoons, especially Scooby Doo. Don't like the new crop of cartoons because Hollywood has make them too PC and taken all the violence (and fun) out of them.

I've been thinking about this since my last post when I was in a bit of a hurry...
Not only AstroBoy, but also Battle of the Planets (G-Force?), TMNT, Batman, XMen, Speed Racer, Transformers, Masters of the Universe, Scooby Doo and Charlie Brown.
