They've got a pretty healthy supply of MST3K. I caught Gamera the other day, which is a classic episode but probably more memorable for the film than the riffs or any of the host segments that don't involve Kevin Murphy singing. (We could probably start a separate MST3K/Rifftrax thread again for more recommendations; I'm sure everybody's got their favorites.)
As far as cartoons, I just noticed they have The Rabbi's Cat the other day; I haven't seen it yet but I'm looking forward to it. (It's an adaptation of a French comic, which I also haven't read. But I read Klezmer, by the same cartoonist, Joann Sfar, and thoroughly enjoyed it.) And it looks like they've got Venture Bros, and if you haven't watched Venture Bros, man, you should watch Venture Bros. And they've also got Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated, which is pretty much what you get when you take the entire 40-year history of Scooby-Doo and only keep the good parts.
As for the '90's, X-Files is one of the defining shows of the decade, and it ranged from fucking amazing to fucking terrible. I'm guessing, given that you're part of this crowd, that you've caught it before, but I've definitely enjoyed going back and watching season 1.
Lastly, for '90's cartoons: they've got Sonic the Hedgehog and Beast Wars, which are probably my favorite 1990's cartoons not to have Bruce Timm's name in the credits.
(Sonic the Hedgehog is the good one. Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog is the sillier one. Which still might be fun.)
