The only thing I really remember wanting to get home faster not to miss a single second of was Pokemon. Before and after that, in my life, the shows I was most excited for came on at prime time (like everything on TGIF back in the day).

Same, specifically Pokemon Orange Islands. I then tried to get into Johto Journeys but it was always filler.
Reading Rainbow
Butterfly in the sky
I can go twice as high
Probably any of: GI Joe, Transformers, and/or He-Man.
But I had to wake up at 6 fucking AM to watch Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors for some fucking reason.
well they were some quick changin fightin machines. I actually found it on one of the free streams and man was that a hokey story line. I was the same though. I don't recall but it was usually some cartoon because that was what was on at a time I might catch it if im fast enough.
Username checks out
d-d-d-digimon
Yeah. The original digimon series was the best. Dont remember much of the story, but the feeling it left is still very vivid.
I don't remember exactly either, but the villains are very intimidating it was truly an adventure.
At various different points of my life: Pokemon, Recess, Kim Possible, the Simpsons, Spongebob, Fairly Odd Parents
All in order?
Mtv, back when it only aired music videos.
My wife said Card Captor Sakura. I remember Gundam Wing and Zenki were on in the early afternoon. YuYu Hakusho was a little later so I was already home for a while by the time it started.
Na-na-na-na na-na-na-na-na

You didn't specify WHICH school. Assuming elementary school, it was probably Star Trek. If it was something like college then it would probably have been something like... oh yeah Star Trek.
The Goodies, and Monkey. Can't remember which one came on first.
Bus ride meant I missed a good hour of the 'toons. But every Wednesday evening there was a test of the local fire station's air siren, and I'd know it was time to rush home and catch MacGyver!
Dragon Ball Z. But that wasn't on until 5, and I had to sit through the other crap that Cartoon Network played before that.

Power Rangers?
Darkwing Duck. High School and college, actually.
Toonami in general
Tenchi
Transformers and thundercats
The 1980's Thundercats or the 2011 Thundercats (or the newest Thundercats, I don't judge)?
80s. I was lucky enough to live near a large Japanese population so on Saturday mornings it was Gundam and Dragonball
I would recommend the 2011 version, it's like they took notes from Avatar.
All of y'all with your fancy cable network toonami and cartoon network eh.
And here I was stuck with FOX and WB (basically just pokemon)
Limba the white lion.
I've heard of Simba and Kimba but not Ligma. I guess if the formula works...
Ducktales
I was a scrawny kid with asthma and a head too big for his body. But I RAN to the bus after school and shot through the front door to the TV. That year started with Battle of the Planets and then blended into Robotech into one long japanimation smear only broken by a summer of Return of the Jedi and lots of comic books that suddenly got dark.
Why yes, I too am also in my 30s just like everyone that commented here!
I also end almost every sentence or text with LOL.
More seriously, I’ll also toss out Beast Wars (Transformers) since that wasn’t mentioned.
50+ dude, here: there was no show I rushed home for as... I was not allowed to watch TV when I was a child. Heck, we even had not tv up until I was 8, or maybe 9.
Later, as a teen and after my parents finally got a tv, I would voraciously watch the Twilight Zone (the Rod Serling version, in B&W) but its episodes were aired on week-ends. So I had no real need to rush either ;)
Nowadays, My spouse and I have quit watching tv since the early 00s, when we realized we were getting tired of spending money while still have to watch ads... all of that for contents we were not really huge fans of. So we don't have a TV at all, when we watch a disc or something, it's on a computer screen.
Talk Soup
Scooby-Doo
We had a whole afternoon program filled with Anime. It brought me sailor moon, ranma, Pokémon, DragonBall, Digimon and so many more! Good old times.
Digimon
Which season?
I think Season 1-3/4 but I'm not sure.
The SBFP Bloodborne playthrough. We had a TV, but it was pretty much unused.
Nothing really.
