Thats quite a long list

I only have a handful I've ever gotten into, but if I had to pick one, it would be My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, no doubt about it.

So many things to like about the show, from its colourful and cute 2D animation (something all the more desirable in todays age of 3D cartoons), an extremely expansive list of characters with their own little interesting quirks, interesting lore, great songs, voice talent etc.

It had an impressive run of 222 episodes which I have not managed to fully stomach (only managed to watch about 40% of the show, as well as the movies), but I absolutely intend to watch it fully because its such a well made and fun show.

TMNT
Adventure Tiime
Rick & Morty
Castlevania, if you're counting it

Could list a ton of anime as well but that's probably another thread. I don't watch much modern western animation.

*Icebot* · 11-07-2019, 07:13 AM

My favorite is The Legend of Korra.

I also like Fairly Oddparents as it continued well into the 2010’s and Beavis and Butthead from 2011.

Also like TMNT 2012.

*newfan* · 11-07-2019, 07:23 AM

I started watching cartoons again due to my children, most I just watch with them, with the exception of TMNT 2012 which I adopted as one of my shows too. That right there would be favourite.

Of other toons I have been happy to sit and watch or been interested to see what happens next ...

Gravity falls - Just picked up recently (not followed as much as the others on the list).
Knights of the Zodiac
Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego
Scooby Doo Mystery Inc

Nickelodeon TMNT is the only 2010's cartoon I've seen all episodes of.

Why shouldn't Castlevania count. It is from 2017?

*ranger_scout* · 11-16-2019, 09:48 AM

The ones that come to my mind right away are:

*TMNT (2012)
*Ducktales (2017)
*Big Hero 6: The Series

If Japanese anime were to count then I will also include:

*Sailor Moon Crystal
*Dragonball Super

*Anarchistguy* · 11-17-2019, 10:44 PM

If we're gonna include anime, then I pick JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. I'm so glad Parts 1 and 3 FINALLY got proper adaptations.

*FredWolfLeonardo* · 11-18-2019, 10:58 PM

Cubed, I really wanna know what you think of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

1. Its not overly serious or dark, obviously.

2. Its not overly comedic, it has a good amount of comedy sure but its not the main genre, and the season finales/premieres are actually played straight with plenty of action a lot of the time.

3. It is something that aired on Saturday mornings.

Honestly sounds like something you'd be into (other than the animation, since you mentioned you're not into flash).

*Leo656* · 11-18-2019, 11:15 PM

He'd never watch it because of the darker sub-section of the fanbase, and the bad name they give anyone who watches it by association.

Everything you say is true, though. I am not kidding when I say that FiM is one of the best shows "for kids" that I've ever seen, especially in recent years when "For Kids" means, "Just half-ass it, kids are stupid, they won't know." Mostly, it succeeds because despite ostensibly being "for kids", so much of it goes right over their heads and can only be appreciated by... well... people in their 30s and 40s. Much of it can only be fully appreciated by MEN in their 30s and 40s, no less. I mean, call me whatever, but most chicks I know don't go nuts over a "Clockwork Orange" reference, just for one thing. And they do tons of stuff like that. I don't get how so many people can be middle-aged and unabashed Disney fanatics, but a lot of those same people draw the line at FiM. It's strange.

It's such a smart, versatile show that's sadly never going to get its fully-deserved credit because 1. It's "supposed" to be for little girls (despite it doing a great job of being For Everyone), and 2. Fans Ruin Everything.

Also, the movie is easily at least as good as some of the mid-level Disney animated films. It's no "Lion King", but easily on par with stuff like "Oliver and Company", which I think is underrated, and objectively, probably better than stuff like "101 Dalmations".

I maintain that I did not want to like FiM. But I do, because it's a Very Good Show. But getting people who've already dismissed it to watch it is like pulling teeth because of "Those Fans", and that's a shame.

I never watched any of the Equestria Girls stuff, though. That didn't grab me at all. Felt like a cheap cash-in type deal. I tried to watch the first one they did but it felt kinda boring. Never saw the others.

*Icebot* · 11-19-2019, 04:20 PM

I think one of my favorites is that Green Eggs and Ham series that just came on Netflix.
