Garfield & Friends...best animated show of the late 80s/early 90s?

It's one of my favorite American cartoons, it was very well written and entertaining even in re-runs but I'm not 100% sure it was the best. I've seen a lot of cartoons from the late 80's and early 90's though and I think it's up there.
 
Is it the best? I don't know about that.
Did it have sharp writing, good animation, and was it one of the best kids shows of all time? You betcha. :D
 
One of the best cartoons of the late 80ś? Absolutely. One of the best cartoons of the early 90's? No.

And by that i don't mean that the show got worse during it's run, but that the general quality of television animation skyrocketed during the time of its run. When Garfield premiered, the only cartoon that could compete with it in terms of quality of writing was Ghostbusters, but by the time it ended, it had been completely overshadowed by shows like Ren and Stimpy, Batman: TAS and The Simpsons.
 
It's been on almost every major kids network then..
Nickelodeon, TD, Boomerang, and I believe Cartoon Network at one point..
