Yeah...I'm surprised I didn't see that coming. I also love how they devolve into just lists, with no discussion of why.

Pretty much every single Nickelodeon show besides TMNT, Avatar and Korra!

Um, Danny Phantom? Jimmy Neutron? Fairly Odd Parents? There have been plenty of other good cartoons on Nickeldeon besides TMNT, Avatar: TLA, and Korra besides the examples I gave...

I should've phrased it better; Any CURRENTLY running Nickelodeon shows besides Avatar, Korra & TMNT.

The series you listed are just fine, they're not bad but they don't even hold a candle to Nickelodeon's previous works like Ren and Stimpy etc.

Don't even get me started on their live-action shows...

Most old superhero shows from before the 90's have aged horribly.

Can't get into any of the old Spider-Man, Batman or Superfriends shows.

Just goes to show you the 90's saved superhero cartoons and remain the high point of the genre to this day.

**Jester** · 11-02-2013, 07:06 PM

Yeah, the best thing about the 60's Marvel series were the theme songs. I'm still surprised that the 60's Iron Man theme was given a big band make-over in the 1st movie. It caught me off guard.

I dont think anyone believes us. No ones probably has seen it.

Own it on DVD...and in my opinion, it's not that bad....but posting videos does not really an argument make.

Most of the stuff that airs on Cartoon Network just bothers me to the brim, to the point where I have to mute the TV every time I try to relax in my bed.

Adventure Time seemed good at first, but after the show kept going on for another season or so, the whole thing turned terribly nonsensical and I just can't stand to watch it anymore.

Regular Show tries it's best to stay "hip" with our culture, which ultimately fails, and most episodes are just bland.

Annoying Orange is the worst of the bunch, as it just blatantly rips off other stories and tries to convert it into their version of which, which can make an already bland story into something even worse.

I couldn't even watch Uncle Grandpa. His voice just irks me.

*Powder* · 11-02-2013, 08:28 PM

A lot of the shows that aired alongside TMNT in the Foxbox block were abysmal.

*miru* · 11-02-2013, 08:32 PM

Many old TMNT knock-offs, Darkstalkers being the worst offender. That show made Morrigan evil, Jon a wuss, Anakaris a nutso, added a dumb human kid, and more. Thankfully no toys were ever made. Imagine cruddy off-model Darkstalkers figures, without Morrigan or Felicia, but instead the human kid or some made up characters! THAT WOULD BE A NIGHTMARE, AND MAKE NO SENSE!

Johnny Test. The only reason it's still alive is because it's so cheap (and some fans still hold out for something like the first season, and others are really into Susan and Mary).

90% of preschool programs.

Have to agree Kid Muscle was actually a decent show, not my favorite cup of tea, but it was still a good show.

Thats the thing about cartoons. Every formula can be recycled over and over since their target is kids and it'll always be "new" and "fresh" to each generation.

Having said that though alot of current cartoons don't make the effort to put any uniqueness to them and settle for rehashing the same things just for the sake of it.

I dont mind the reuse of ideas and formulas as long as the said cartoon does something to set it apart. I understand its hard to come up with completely original stories. I mean look, alot of popular cartoons are preexisting franchises...Scooby, TMNT, MLP, Pokemon, Superheros, Transformers etc. Then alot of cartoons just use the random sillyness format which I dont care for.

Bottom line even if its been done, its been done better. There are very few current cartoons that are NOT based on older franchises that I like.

What about AT, RS, Gravity Falls, Uncle Grandpa, AWOG, Wonder over Yander, Sanjay and Criag, Uncle Grandpa, Kick Buttowski and many others also a lot of cartoons do have a uniquenss for example
Adventure Time while basically about a boy and his dog explore a strange land does explore some dark and tragic themes about the world and existing characters, also the main character ages in real time, something I never seen in a cartoon in general

Regular Show is about two slackers but what makes it different is the character development and a day in the limelight for the cast, you get the feeling that even though they are harsh on one another they still consider each others as friends.

Hell even Sanjay and Criag I show with a lot of juvenile humor can get surprisingly touching with elements of friends and family

*Slade* · 11-02-2013, 11:17 PM

I haven't heard of half the shows mentioned from Cartoon Network. I stopped watching the channel after DBZ. I've seen the adventure time characters somewhere, I wouldn't watch anything like that, I don't care for animation like that. I've always hates spongebob. Just don't find it entertaining.

*BabyTurtles* · 11-02-2013, 11:35 PM

I hate any cartoon show that is nasty >:U bleh.

and Johnny Test.....that is the worst use of flash animation ever......actually I think it barely beats Wild Grinders XD

Im sorry but Adventure Time, Regular Show, Wonder Over Yonder and Uncle Grandpa all fall under the random sillyness format. Theyre just wacky shows with no depth. I know thats what theyre meant to be but like I said I don't care for that style. Plus basically all shows, not just cartoons, have moments of friendship and whatnot.

Gravity Falls is one the current cartoons I like that I was referring too, that isnt an established franchise. Its humor isnt just random craziness. It also has a solid premise of a creepy countryside.

Regular Show and Adventure Time even though they still have other types of humor, Slapstick, Dailogue, and meta jokes too. Also for depth like I said tragic themes and characters for Adventure Time and Character Development and backgrounds are explored.

The only show with that wackness and no depth is uncle grandpa
Also if you want to see a show like Gravity Falls I highly suggest watching Scooby doo MI or detetionaire

This statement proves you haven't watched enough Adventure Time to have an objective opinion or make a valid point.
