I never thought it was that bad... a little misguided in effort, maybe. Though I think the voice actors they used really made it better than it could have been.

But such is the problem with OZ follow ups...The entire franchise has to compete with the 1930's movie. People somehow forgot the books (until Wicked came out, and this was back when it was a novel). DIC's cartoon (the one I surmise you're talking about) took the copying the old movie route, and remade it as a TV show.

I feel the same about Alice in Wonderland, and how they perpetually just copy the Disney version.

Speaking of OZ cartoons, here's a rare one from the 60's... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjyv_i0tBSk
It's got a pretty odd graphic style...
