Are there any good cartoon series?

A suffusion of yellow
After spending a morning watching the crap that is modern cartoons I must say that todays young'ens a being denied - the new Transformers is a joke, Zoids, Yugio, DBZ and Digimon make me want to go back to watching Pokemon or even Strawberry Shortcake and even the new Scooby Doo sux (but then I was neer really a scooby fan)

okay Samurai Jack and the Powerpuff Girls gave me some reprieve - but come on where are the modern versions of the Gummi Bears, Galaxy Rangers and the mighty Orbots, where are Mightor and Reboot and what happened to the Transformers (I weep)

Where are the good cartoons?

If you cannot appreciate the joy that is the Jackie Chan Adventures, I want nothing to do with you. It is one of the most entertaining shows on TV, in my opinion.

Anyone who can appriciate the genius behind the Galaxy Rangers is a person of quality for whom I will gladly purchase a beverage of choice.

PS The Orbots were cool because they had a story arc. The Gummis were good until they sold out to The Man.

I was looking at his list and thinking "Awesome!"

Mighty Orbots is my favourite cartoon series of all time.

Gummi Bears were cool (although I don't know if I saw them after they Sold Out to The Man...?), and Galaxy Rangers weren't bad either :)

Notably missing, however, was any mention of Animaniacs, Histeria!, or classic Looney Tunes. (Or even Tiny Toons... after all, they did have The Anvil Chorus, starring Plucky Duck...)

I mean, the Orbots were awesome, but Animaniacs had regular moments of absolute genius. Les Boutons et la Ballon. Yakko Warner sings The Nations of the World. Video Review.

God, sometimes those writers outdid themselves.

They "jumped the shark" with Gusto Gummi, in my opinion

Yes. I have deep feelings about the purity of the Gummi Bears cartoon. I'm a very ill man.

I remember the Smurfs. They were also good until I realized at the tender age of 10 that not only had they sold out to The Man, they had already done so from before the cartoon even existed. But the cat Azrael was cool, coz that is the name of the angel of death and the cat never was fooled about where the smurfs were and ok I'll stop now. :)
