When we were kids, all we wanted to do was watch cartoons. And although most of us are Disney, Nickelodeon, SapceToon, and MBC 3 babies, we can’t deny the hold that Egyptian cartoons had over us. With most of these animated gems airing in Ramadan, they had a charm to them that we can’t quite explain!

 

If you want to refresh your memory, read on to see which five old Egyptian cartoons we picked!

 

  • Snoohy

We’re not quite sure what the point of this show was, but Snoohy was a young schoolboy in Ancient Egypt, going to school and hanging out with his two friends, Haby and Titi-Sheri. The trio usually had a lot of adventures and other childish shenanigans, just like any normal children. The only difference is that this happened approximately seven thousand years ago.

  • El Moghameroon El Khamsa

Originally a novel, El Moghameroon El Khamsa was adapted into a mini-series about five kid detectives who solve robberies and go on investigative missions. The five mini-detectives are also best friends who help each other in reaching their goals and catching culprits.

  • Bassant w Diasty

A 3D-animated cartoon about a couple from Upper Egypt, Bassant w Diasty was quite an interesting show. In it, the titular couple was highly connected to technology and pop culture despite no one in their village having modern technology.

  • Super Henedi

In this cartoon, comedian Mohamed Henedi plays himself as a 2D-animated superhero who solves crimes with his sidekick, Sal’aat, played by the late Talaat Zakaria. Together, the duo went on missions to catch criminals and solve Egypt’s serious issues from a rather funny perspective.

  • Karakeeb

This cartoon is about two aliens living on a planet outside our solar system, though it’s still in our universe. While driving through the Milky Way, the aliens’ spaceship breaks down on a small unknown planet, forcing them to cope with the changes and live life until they find a way out.
