I'm a big fan of cartoons. Alot from the 80s for sure (especially when I wear my nostalgia goggles) and some from today. I don't know if I could list every single series I like but here are some of my favorites: *Transformers (G1, BW, Prime, and some of the other series) *GI Joe (mainly the original Sunbow series and some of the DIC episodes) *Thundercats (80s and the newer version) *Spider-Man (80s, 90s, Spectacular, Ultimate [mainly the latter seasons when Scarlet Spider shows up], 2018 series) *X-Men (90s series) *He-Man and the MOTU (80s, 2003 series) *Voltron (80s series and the new Netflix series) *TMNT (2003 and 2012 series) *Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors *C.O.P.S. *Bravestarr *Dino-Riders *Dinosaucers *M.A.S.K. *The Real Ghostbusters *Ghostbusters (the other GB show based on the 70s Filimation live action series) *Ducktales (80s and the newer series) *Sonic the Hedgehog (the 90s "SatAM" action version) *Digimon *MLP FiM/EQGs (mainly watched when I would babysit my sister and then my niece. Some episodes are pretty enjoyable) *Vintage Donald Duck shorts *Vintage Tom and Jerry shorts *Gargoyles (pre-Goliath Chronicles) *Teen Titans (the older 2000s series, not GO) *Batman Beyond *Star Trek 70s Animated Series *Danger Mouse (love the older series, not so much the newer one) *Mysterious Cities of Gold (I LOVE the original series, I'll let you know about the recent newer seasons IF SOMEONE EVER RELEASES THEM IN THE US!!! )

Do people here like cartoons? Most anything Transformers even if it sucked More anime than I can possibly enumerate, but... - Sailor Moon - Macross - Gundam - Ass loads of Shonen Jump series The DCAU Early Adult Swim stuff like ATHF, Sealab 2020, Harvey Birdman and The Brak Show TMNT That's the broad strokes of it. The approximate path of Japanese and Japan-adjacent shows that lead to me being the out of control weeaboo I was in my 20's goes something like Voltron -> Transformers -> TMNT -> Power Rangers -> Ronin Warriors -> Sailor Moon Do we consider Power Rangers / Super Sentai / Kamen Rider / etc to be cartoons?

I'm a cartoonist, so by default... Yeah, I like cartoons.
Almost everything Transformers related Certain Gundams. (Turn A, G, Unicorn, Iron Blooded Orphans, Origin, ect. Basically the good shit.) Steven Universe Major Disney fan, particularly Lilo and Stitch, Mulan, the Little Mermaid and a few others
*sigh* You know, it's easier to say the cartoons that I hate.

So would I. Mach is usually the one trying to convince us why something we hate is actually good.

Okay then, motherfuckers... Lets do this shit!
I don't count the random Saturday morning garbage that Hanna-Barbera and Ruby Spears produced in the 70s-90s. That was meant as nothing more than space filler and served it's duty in that. Trollkins and Goldie Gold and more modern stuff like Uncle Grandpa and Beware the Batman is stupid as all fuck, but they were a one and done sort of deal. They came out, they sucked and they were cancelled. No... To make this list, it must meet three criteria:
• The writing must be obnoxiously and insultingly bad. As in it insults the intelligence of anyone watching it. Just being bad isn't enough, it must be condescendingly bad. • The animation and character designs are uninspired. I can deal with bad animation, as Rick and Morty proves. But not if it's just so generic that it leaves no mark whatsoever. • It must have had at least two seasons. (Or enough to be renewed at least.) As far as anime goes, I will count multipart OVAs but not standalone movies.
Now in no particular order:
1. Johnny Test: Maaaaan FUCK that hyperactive, low brow, Dexter's Lab wannabe piece of shit. 2. Loonatics Unleashed: It was like the Looney Tunes show NO ONE ASKED FOR. 3. Drawn Together: Oh hey, a show with a bunch of generic, poorly designed character tropes, with a slew of "edgy" dick and gay jokes written by a bunch of straight white dudes. 4. 12 oz. Mouse: At a time when Adult Swim was becoming more and more obnoxious, this was the poster child. What the hell was this shit even supposed to be? 5. Xavier: Renegade Angel: If you really wanna suck, let's get poor 3-D animation that looks dated on a PS1 and put it in a annoying stream-of-consciousness show that goes nowhere. 6. Bubblegum Crisis 2040: Let's take one of the greatest cyberpunk series of all time, and let's remake it into a really dated (even for the 90s) piece of shit. 7. Burst Angel (or Bakuretsu Tenshi if you prefer): It should have been good... But it wasn't. The animation was lazy, all the characters were unlikable and the payoff ending was awful. 8. Family Guy: 'Nuff said. 9. Transformers Energon/Superlink: To date, it is the ONLY Transformers show I have not seen in it's entirety. The animation is sub par, the writing is atrocious... It's just bad. 10. Eureka Seven AO: There's no reason this show should be on the list like it is. This one is an anomaly. The animation is great, the character designs are wonderful, the character backstories are nice... But with what happens in the show, it pisses me off SO GOD DAMN MUCH, it not only shits all over it's own good will, but over the previous show as well. You know it's bad, when it makes me long for "Eureka Seven: Good Night, Sleep Tight, Young Lovers"

Renton and Eureka rode off into the sunset at the end of Eureka Seven, and they should've just left it at that. There was no reason to involve them in a sequel that has barely anything to do with the original show anyway.

The only reason I watched it was because they were saying shit like it took place in 2025, near future. So since the original series took place in like... Twelve thousand years in the future, I figured this was like the OVA and it's another universe. And then I heard there was a connection and I thought "Oh, this must be when the Scub Coral came to Earth in the first place. Okay, I can get behind... FUCKING TIME TRAVEL?!" I understand the recent OVA fixed some shit up, but you know what? I don't give a fuck. I don't give enough of a shit that the next series could be fucking Darling in the Franxx and I won't even give it the time of fucking day.
Seriously, Aquarion Evol also undid some of the events of the original series, but at least THAT was still fun to watch and none of the characters in the original series knew what was really happening because Gen/Zen Fudo was kinda an asshole. (Didn't try Aquarion Logos yet. Been meaning too though.)
