I think almost all children love watching cartoons; sometimes, we adults ourselves sit and watch certain cartoon shows. Cartoons have become a part of a child’s life. Just ask a child what his/her pastime is and majority of them will say they watch cartoons either in the television or computers. There are certain evergreen cartoon characters, am I right? Many of us would have watched Tom and Jerry or Mickey Mouse when we were young and our children today watch these shows. Shall we find out the most famous cartoon characters that children love? This list is based on the popularity these cartoon characters have among children.
Tom and Jerry: It is hard to find someone who doesn’t like Tom and Jerry. Tom and Jerry is an American animated series created by William Hanna and Joseph Barbara for MGM (Metro Goldwyn Mayor). Tom is the cat and Jerry is the rat. It is fun watching Tom chasing Jerry. Tom and Jerry celebrated their 70th anniversary on February 2010. Oh…completed 70 years and still looking young!

Mickey Mouse: This is a witty cartoon character that both children and adults love watching. Mickey is short for Mitchell. The famous Mickey Mouse character was created by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks on November 18, 1928. Have you watched the recent “Mickey Mouse Clubhouse” show in Disney channel?

Donald Duck: Donald Duck is a playful cartoon character just like Mickey Mouse from Walt Disney.  Donald is a white duck with legs, bill and feet in yellow-orange color. Red bow tie is another significant thing that one would notice in Donald Duck. The voice is given by Clarence Nash from 1934 till 1985 and from then on till now, it is Tony Anselmo who is voicing Donald Duck. Donald Duck celebrated its 50th anniversary in 1984.

Winnie the Pooh: Winnie the Pooh is another cartoon character that is famous among children. This was created by A. A. Milne. The first collection of stories on Winnie the Pooh was published in the year 1926. It was originally written as Winnie-the-Pooh, but the hyphens were dropped when it was adapted by “The Walt Disney Company.”
Tweety: I love tweety; it is such an adorable cartoon character. Tweety is also called as Tweety bird or the tweety pie. I thought tweety to be a female as it has a high pitched voice till I wrote this article; yes…tweety is a male. In majority of the cartoons, tweety will be accompanied by Granny, his owner. Tweety’s first appearance was on November 21, 1942. Tweety was originally created by Robert Clampett and later revised by Friz Freleng.

10 Best TV Cartoon Characters

Deciding on the 10 best TV cartoon characters is nearly impossible because so many cartoon characters are both cultural icons and amazing characters. These 10 TV cartoon characters come from a variety of cartoon shows, ranging from kids shows to adults-only shows. However, they are all interesting, funny, and at times very easy to relate to.

1. Homer Simpson. The classic bumbling working man from the adult cartoon "The Simpsons", Homer is stupid, loving, drunk, and endearing. He obviously loves his family, yet often manages to mess something up, which he responds to with his iconic "Doh!"
2. Mickey Mouse. On the opposite end of the cartoon spectrum, Mickey has entertained children (and adults) for decades. The classic TV cartoon character has launched an empire, and is possibly the most recognizable cartoon character in existence.
3. Stan Marsh. From the naughty "South Park", Stan is a TV cartoon character who, though concerned with ten-year-old boy activities like video games and playing with friends, has a very mature side. Stan points out societal flaws and philosophical issues all while swearing at and insulting his buddies.
4. Lois Griffin. While many would point to Peter Griffin from "Family Guy" as the more iconic character, Lois is a much more original character. Throughout the series she has been portrayed as kind, intelligent, naughty, brutally honest, nurturing, and cultured. She loves her bumbling husband, but at times she just has to sigh and wonder how she ended up married to him.
5. Ren and Stimpy. Though created for children, the "Ren and Stimpy" show displayed a shocking amount of violence and gross-out scenes. This infamous show paved the way for similar programing, though since few children's shows rival its shock value.
6. Turanga Leela. From "Futurama", Leela is a kick-butt space captain who is both kind hearted and sarcastic. The opposite of her friend Amy, Leela is a mutant tomboy who takes charge and outsmarts and outwits the boys.
7. Hank Hill. From "King of the Hill", Hank is a TV cartoon character who is, as he says himself at his wife's former ranch, "complicated." This TV cartoon character is a redblooded American who loves beer, barbeque, and all things American, and he is also a very caring and concerned citizen.
8. Lucy Van Pelt. From "Peanuts", Lucy is the sister you love to hate. Famous for her advice booth and for moving the football when Charlie Brown goes to kick it, Lucy is a sassy girl who is a cultural icon.
9. Wile E. Coyote. While Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck are more iconic, Wile E. Coyote represents the ultimate frustration (a Sisyphean struggle). This TV cartoon character spends all his time trying to bring down the Roadrunner, only to have every attempt dashed and end up extremely injured.
10. Tigger. From "The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh" (and other "Winnie the Pooh" series'), Tigger just wants to have fun. In an always-moving, stressful world, Tigger shows that there is nothing wrong with good, old-fashioned fun.

Top 50 Cartoon Characters

Cartoon characters are as endearing to adults as children. Many times we can relate to them. Most of the time we just love to laugh at their antics and misfortune. Following is the list of top 50 cartoon characters of all time, judged for their influence, their popularity and their hilarity.

50. Bobby Hill

Twentieth Century Fox

Bobby Hill is my favorite character on King of the Hill. He's the SpongeBob of the group, always optimistic, a dreamer. If I could ask creator Mike Judge one question, it would be, "What will Bobby Hill be when he grows up?" He has so many aspirations, I just can't imagine the answer.

49. Wonder Woman

Turner Broadcasting

Before those snappy drawers called Underoos were made, back when underpants looked like, well, underpants, I just took red and blue markers to my own white bottoms (as any 5 year old will) and made my own Wonder Woman costume. Thank goodness we lived way, way out in the country. Regardless, Wonder Woman gave little girls their own superhero, one who was strong and gorgeous with lots of cool toys.

48. Daria

Pricegrabber.com

If Daria were alive, right now, would she be Emo or Goth? Probably neither, as Daria doesn't conform to anyone's trend. She's smart and witty, a teenage girl trying to figure out how to be her own person and still have a boyfriend at the same time.

47. Batman

Turner Broadcasting

Can you imagine a time when Batman wasn't the Dark Knight we know now? Hard to believe the many transformations this superhero has seen through the years, especially on television. You can catch this caped crusader now on Cartoon Network in Batman: The Brave and the Bold. His chest is huge!

46. Superman

Pricegrabber.com

To me, Superman is the ultimate superhero. But is he a true superhero since he only has powers because he's an alien, from another planet? Or is he just a guy who fell to ground on the right planet? I'm sure fanboys debate this issue frequently, but as long as any incarnation of Superman includes a broad chest, incorruptible morals and old-fashioned chivalry, I'm there.

45. George of the Jungle

If you doubt the popularity of George of the Jungle, just watch the new cartoon on Cartoon Network, or rent the DVD of the live-action film starring Brendan Fraser. George of the Jungle originated in the '60s, a parody of the Tarzan story. He's known for swinging on vines and slamming into trees, as well as his rhythmic theme song, "George, George, George of the Jungle... watch out for that tree!"

44. Spider-man

Pricegrabber.com

Spider-man is the everyman superhero. He started out as the geek next door and was transformed into a mega-strong, mega-agile dude. Spider-man has been reproduced in TV cartoons many, many times. Most recently Spidey starred in The Spectacular Spider-Man.

43. The Powerpuff Girls

Cartoon Network

Girl power times three. Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup keep Townsville, USA safe from evil, while dealing with the pressures of kindergarten. The visual style of The Powerpuff Girls sets it apart, though. It's part high art and part drug-induced pop art. Whichever way you go, those giant eyes and crazy voices keep the cartoon from ever being stiff.

42. Angelica Pickles

Nickelodeon

Why do bullies get all the good lines? Angelica Pickles is the bossy, spoiled toddler from Rugrats. She is the most familiar character from Rugrats, but possibly only because she is the meanest and talks the most (she's older than the babies).

41. Felix the Cat

Classic Media

Felix is a black and white cat created during the silent film era of the early 20th Century. His simple form and face make him easily recognizable. He was also the first cartoon character to gain enough popularity to award him a feature film.
