What are must watch cartoons in /co/ opinion?
Boku no Pico
Over the Garglin' Balls.
>>78467463
That's /a/
Steven Universe
>>78466359
Wakfu is fantastic. Really lived up to the hype I heard about it.
MLP was alright, but severely over-rated.
I feel like Steven Universe is also incredibly over-rated.
Star Wars Clone Wars and Samurai Jack are awesome if you just like watching nonstop action.
We Bare Bears is arguably the best cartoon on CN right now in my opinion. It's incredibly simple but really funny.
Amazing World of Gumball is fucking hilarious.
Um... Nothing more pops up off the top of my head.
>>78466359
i agree with most of this list but this list is old as fuck and will never be updated
Pic related, has lot of light-hearted discussion about religion that doesn't revolve around bashing or shoving anyone opinions down anyone throat, is actually funny with many actually intelligent and informed jokes that are even funnier when you understand the context( as in actually learning what the bible/old testament is about by yourself, and not just copy-pasting someone else opinions on the subject) and it isn't a hypocritical, narrow-minded pseudo-intellectual fapfest for atheist like many others show who approach the subject of religion.
Only problem is that there isn't that many episodes, which is a real shame since it was a really nice show.
I wish I could tell more but I don't want to spoil anything, the show is worth watching.
>>78469534
Is SU the most overrated cartoon on this planet?
>>78470111
It definitely doesn't live up to the hype people make about it.
>>78470163
This. Same with GF; they just deserve the praise they get.
>>78466359
Rocko's Modern Life
>>78470163
What hype? Everywhere I go I see hate for it.
The most essential must-watch cartoon shows in chronological order:
1. The great Looney Tunes shorts (not a tv show, but too impoortant to ignore)
2. The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show
3. The Simpsons ("classic seasons" of course)
4. Spongebob Squarepants
5. Adventure Time
>>78470288
Why Adventure Time? It's SU tier.
>>78470303
It's the first cartoon of the new generation of animation and has a style and the creativity to make it influential for all shows after it. Like it or not, it's a must-watch because all new cartoons live in its shadow.
>>78470346
>Like it or not, it's a must-watch because all new cartoons live in its shadow.
Especially shit like GF and SU.
>>78470346
very true
>>78470375
>GF
>Bad
From CN, Disney, and Nick, these are my top 5 in no order;
Cartoon Network.
>Samurai Jack.
>Ed Edd n Eddy.
>Courage the Cowardly Dog.
>Billy and Mandy.
>Powerpuff Girls.
>Honorable Mention: Kids Next Door.
Nick.
>Hey Arnold!
>Avatar the Last Airbender.
>Rocko's Modern Life.
>Invader Zim.
>Spongebob Seasons 1-3 + movie.
>Honorable Mention: Angry Beavers.
Disney (or associated networks);
>Dave the Barbarian.
>Recess.
>Fillmore!
>Duck Tales.
>Kim Possible.
>Honorable Mention: Hercules/Aladdin the animated series, they're similar enough.
I'd recommend any of these really. Also didn't include still-airing shows because they're not finished and to avoid a potential shitstorm.
>>78470400
I hate how SU blatantly rides on AT's contrails.
>SU
>bad
I would say it's not bad, but it's not crazy great too. And you can only say it's overhyped if you base that on your internet exposure. A lot of people have not heard of it actually and it gets a lot of hate and criticism.
I'd say AT in later seasons got really overhyped. First 2 or so seasons were pretty solid, and I guess it's chugging along well, but man did CN sell it well.
>>78470459
Animation has fallen since these shows stopped airing.
>>78470483
SU is horrible. I can't find one good thing about it.
>>78470461
How so? Genuinely curious, because I see nothing similar. I'd say Sanjay and Craig blatantly rides on AT's and RS' popularity, gimmick, and style.
SU has Sugar's style (singing and emotions) and the feel of those kiddie shounen/shoujo shows.
>>78470414
GF stopped being good after Ford showed up.
>>78470533
Are you kidding? SU is basically just a rip off of AT.
>>78470536
I understand why, becaus the show did felt like it was being rushed after ford.
>>78469615
Funny i had never seen this one before, but like most of /co/ recommendations, needs to be updated.
>>78470590
That and everyone flanderized to hell.
>>78470514
I'd say it's probably because it's not your thing and your internet exposure to it and its fanbase left a bad taste in your mouth.
I can say what I really dislike about it is that, at times, the drama feels a bit forced (that bit where Pearl breaks down after teaching Connie swordfighting made me roll my fucking eyes out).
The one good thing I can point is that the designs do not look common to me.
>>78470564
For me, the humor and story structure is nowhere similar. The art and animation is different, too (although I agree that a lot of cartoons lately look derivative in their simpleness and roundness).
I'd say SU is subtler than AT when it comes to "deep" stuff. I don't know, AT just became a bit too "in your face" with certain themes after S2 or so.
SU also feels like its story is a bit more planned out than AT's. But to AT's defense, I don't think AT was always planned to have an overarching plot.
I guess, in a way, their similarities are that some AT writers, Sugar included, wanted to insert overarching plot points while maintaining the wacky, self-contained, episodes/stories. But since AT is supposed to be not so connected, the stories seem kinda convoluted later on. With SU, Sugar applied that style (wacky, self-contained stories + looming overarching plot in the bg), so things feel similar to AT but smoother in application.
>>78470728
You sound like a shill.
>>78470778
I wish I had a job, anon. No, not shilling, just discussing. It's the holidays and I can't sleep.
>>78470728
So in other words, AT and SU are lolrandumb shows that try to be deep and pretentious.
>>78470728
>I can say what I really dislike about it is that, at times, the drama feels a bit forced
No joke, this is what Sugar considers good drama. She's a fucking lunatic.
>>78470728
There's nothing good to point out to in SU.
>>78470812
In AT's case, I don't think it was ever meant to go beyond its humor. Serious stuff was peppered to enhance the overall story and world (S2 finale) but nothing more. I can't comment in the later seasons (s6 and beyond, i think).
For SU, i think they always wanted to have humor in it (it's an American kids cartoon, after all), but Sugar wanted to push the boundaries and add serious stuff.
So I'm not sure I can call them pretentious. I think current writers are trying to challenge the US cartoon format and people's perceptions of tv cartoons. An anon pointed out that kids cartoons is the wrong place for this kind of treatment/writing, and I agree. I guess it's hard to shake things up in the US cartoon scene because it's undeniable that people view cartoons as wacky comedies only and rallying for support/greenlighting for another treatment would be difficult.
>>78470926
We need to get rid of shows like SU and GF. They are cancer to American cartoons.
>>78470926
>i think they always wanted to have humor in it
The show isn't funny. And I'm very easy to make laugh. There's been a few chuckles at some jokes but I've never laughed hard like at other cartoons I've seen.
>>78471007
Why does SU suck so bad at humor? Even TTG makes some pretty great jokes.
>>78471049
Hi Alex Hirsch!
>>78471007
That is true. It doesn't have a lot of funny moments (although I have to admit that the 'art=subjective' thing made me genuinely laugh). I guess it's because it's not marketed and never made to be a funny, wacky comedy cartoon for kids, but since it's an American cartoon it still has those elements.
Like I said, I guess Sugar--like some of her peers-- wanted to be experimental with their cartoons. I agree that US cartoons should be a bit more different, but I also agree with that one anon that the place for such an experiment shouldn't be kid's cartoons.
>>78471074
Gravity falls season 3 is coming out guys! I was just drunk.
>>78471132
This. Sugar and her friends are ruining kid's cartoons by trying to be experimental. Nobody wants that shit.
>>78471132
This is why I like TTG. It never tries to be anything but a kid's show and it succeeds at it. Meanwhile, GF and SU are trying to be the next Harry Potter.
>>78471029
>>78471446
TTG is genuinely funny, but it's also incredibly annoying at the same time. It's hard to watch but they have some good jokes on the regular.
>>78471446
My only issue with TTG is that it's apparently pushed a lot by CN and shown numerous times a day. I'm not a fan of it or have seen it, and I have nothing against it, but I wish they would tame it a bit. But yeah I get why it's a popular kid's show right now: It's cheap and has all the right elements for its US market.
>>78471505
If SU and GF were more like TTG, CN and Disney would raking in tons of cash.
>>78471567
But then all the fans would be 12 year olds.
>>78471378
I wouldn't say they're ruining kid's cartoons. They seem to be only a fraction of what's in/trendy right now. But you have a point. It's hard to ease in to a new style when you're used to the wacky comedic formula of kid's cartoons.
As for me, though, I'm not fond of the experimental thing they're doing with kid's cartoons because at the end of the day they're bound within the restrictions of it. So for me it feels like things are half-baked (?? I'm not sure if this is the right term in English; probably lukewarm??).
It would be interesting to see an American cartoon for adults that's not necessarily a copy of Simpson's or Family Guy and other similar adult cartoon shows.
>>78471567
I guess the reason CN and Disney picked SU and GF up is because they're different (less wacky humor and heavy on the plot). They have to be diverse in their shows, although art styles have been derivative.
>>78471619
We should get rid of SU and GF. That way, no more people will try to make experimental kid's shows.
>>78471648
>They have to be diverse in their shows, although art styles have been derivative.
Tumblr is to blame for this.
>>78471689
Congrats, GF is ending.
Not moving goalposts, but I'd like to add that experimenting on kid's shows is not entirely bad, just maybe not the place to start. The US audience can currently only process the same kind of kids show (wacky comedy with less plot; thank god for OTGW though). Maybe if the experiment was done on an adult show first, it would work better and can easily ease in to kid's shows?
I'm not saying I'm not enjoying SU or GF, but most of the time they feel lacking or silly in a kid's cartoon treatment.
OTGW was kinda different, but I'm not sure how popular it became to kids.
Japan and French or Euro cartoons have always been a bit varied with their cartoons. I guess it'll be a long way for US cartoons to reach that kind of variety?
>>78471861
OtGW was shit though.
>>78471989
>OTGW
>Shit
I'm triggered.
>>78471861
Honestly, cartoons should just be like TTG and be done with it.
>>78472050
not everyone wants to wank it over the 1920's
>>78472100
So, shitty cartoons?
>>78472109
This. Who cares about the 1920s.
>>78472116
Kid's cartoons can't be shitty. They're for kids.
>>78472109
I know people who want to wank it over the 1920s.
Nothing wrong with a bit of variation. Nothing wrong with not liking it too.
>>78472161
So, since it takes place in the 1920's it's shit,
Wat.
>>78472100
Are you saying Americans can't handle variation? Maybe eventually, but probably not now.
>>78472194
But there adult cartoons. Are those for kids too?
>>78472228
Don't take flamebait so easily. Did you just blow from tumblrtown?
>>78472268
No, dude. But for a second I thought it was bait.
Also tumblr is shit.
>>78471836
>>78472268
>Tumblr boogeyman
Stop posting. We're having a good discussion here.
>>78472362
I am taking part of the discussion and typing more than I should. I was just poking fun.
>>78472254
Yes. TTG made a good point; Bob's Burgers and Rick & Morty should tone down their content.
>>78472240
Look at Japan; that's a country that can handle variation.
Why can't America be more like Japan.
So you want more kiddie cartoons that only kids would enjoy than?
>>78472555
Screw that. Bob's Burgers is alright but Rick and Morty is hilarious. BB doesn't really have an over-arching storyline whereas RnM has tie-ins pretty often. RnM does the comedy/story combo right. Self-contained adventures that loosely connect to each other.
>>78472966
Yes
>>78473108
But that's not what kid's want.
>>78471501
I've grown to like TTG after I got over the whole "not muh titans" phase and the constant shitpostsing by...well, by that guy in the thread right now.
I really liked the bit where Killer Moth mutated the titans and just left.
>That's it, I'm done! You'll never learn! I'm going to bed.
>Can't we have the antidote?
>No
and then he just goes to bed.
It was pretty great.
>>78471861
>>78471619
>>78470926
Why do you keep responding to trolls with more than one sentence?
Do you have nothing better to do with your time?
Brac
Are you still here?!
Christs sake I cancelled teen titans go already because it had one too many poc! Stop worshipping me, JTfag
>>78476084
Better than GF and SU.
>>78476759
And theyre both still better than TTG
>>78470564
You very obviously haven't watched the show at all
>>78476916
I watched the pilot. It was pretty much an unused AT episode.
>>78476957
Teen titans go was basicallt adventure time with no changes
L
>>78476957
>I watched the pilot
This is advanced shitposting and I applaud you for it, good sir.
>>78477021
If it makes you feel better, I also watched the first two episodes. Again, they were basically AT episodes with slightly different characters.
>>78477021
Lel dont listen to him he thinks teen titans go is yhe greatest show ever its not and i created it
>>78477043
No they don't.
>>78469534
>We Bare Bears
>Best
Anon the show is decent but it's anywhere close to being good
>>78477043
Teen titans go is basically adventure time i didnt even change the characters they are literally the same show
>>78477052
>Grammar error while pretending to be the "not really" guy.
Fuck.
>>78477056
Better than SU, GF, Star Vs, R&M, etc.
>>78477068
And theyre all better than teen titans go
>>78477068
>Better than SU, GF, Star Vs, R&M, etc.
This opinion is 90% wrong
WBB is better than Star Vs., but the rest of those shows are above average, which also means above WBB in quality
Would everyone please just stop responding?
>>78477052
Yeah they were.
>>78477129
Good so my shillbot is working
>>78477135
Not really.
>>78466359
You want to find out how you can tell which shows are good?
Find out which threads are mostly people posting fan art/porn, those shows are overrated
Threads where the same images come up over and over again? Probably mediocre shows that people have huge boners for
Shows that are mostly about bitching how awful the show is? Bad shows, but not nearly as bad as /co/ makes it seem
Just lurk and you'll figure out who the faggots are and who are kindly anons
>>78477112
Not true. WBB doesn't use lore and drama as crutch like GF and SU. Even Star Vs was good until the season finale.
>>78477135
My show is more of a tipoff because i didnt even change anything teen titans go is literally adventure time
>>78477160
But teen titans go has lots of lore from its previous show! You cant discredit the lore from both shows
>>78477157
In other words, there are no good shows. Just Faggotry.
>>78477068
Fucking shills man, shows like SU and GF ate leagues better than We Bare Bears. Sure they're incredibly overrated but the shows are desrving of some praise while Bears does not offer much outside of bland quirky humor
>>78477181
Then why do you watch teen titans go when it wasnt a good show to begin with
>>78477148
Yeah, really.
>>78477194
No. Stop watching my show
Capfag toons:
>Batman TAS
>Batman of The Future
>X-Men TAS
>Spider-Man TAS
>Avengers Assemble
>Fantastic Four: World's Greatest Heroes (severely underrated)
Non-Capfag toons:
>Simpsons
>South Park
>Invader Zim (ignore the fanbase)
>Sealab 2021
>Aeon Flux (ignore the film, pretend it never happened)
>>78477160
But WBB doesn't have anything interesting about the characters
WBB uses cliches and outdated jokes instead of original storylines, instead of humor it just makes references to things that happen in real life--like people using cell phones all the time, quirky hipster shit like food trucks and farmers markets, etc
It's just a dull show anon
>>78477181
basically
it's just a matter of what kind of a faggot you are
And you are a faggot, why else would you be here?
>>78477188
It's because WBB is not overrated and revives very little praise that it's such a good show. I'll take bland quirky humor over pretentious drama any day.
>>78477220
>Spider-Man TAS
>not Spectacular Spiderman
I feel like the only reason Spider-Man TAS was good was because it was essentially just the comics, but animated
>>78477259
>I prefer unfunny things to interesting things, only because the interesting things are taken too seriously by others
fuck off
>>78477259
Is that wht you like ttg because no one likes it
>>78477232
It may be dull but it's leagues better than anything else CN has to offer. That includes Long Live the Royals.
>>78477300
So what you hate me now?
>>78477280
I'm sorry not everyone could be a lorefag anon.
>>78477300
>but it's leagues better than anything else CN
That's a shit opinion, here's why
your opinion is based on a reaction to other people's opinions
You aren't telling me why the show is good, you're telling me other shows are bad so that makes this one good
>That includes Long Live the Royals
This is probably the first time that show has been mentioned, literally nobody regards that as a good show
Bringing up the fact that you don't like other shows doesn't make the shows you do like better
>>78477259
>little praise makes things good
Literal retard, by your logic shows like wabbit and breadwinners are amazing. Bears is mainly hipster nonsense and a tremendous amount of gay shipping
>>78477331
>lorefag
Again, your opinion is that other people like other shows, so you're going to praise the show that has essentially nothing going for it, to the point where nobody talks about, as good just because people don't talk about it
I'm sorry not everyone could be a gigantic faggot, like you
>>78477347
I've WAY too many people praise the Royals and I don't think it deserves that much praise.
>>78477331
I'm pretty sure WBB has had multiple flashbacks, including episodes that were entirely flashbacks.
I'm not saying that it's "lore", I just don't think your opinions/criticisms are justified.
>>78477351
Wabbit is pretty good though.
>>78477366
Nobody in this thread mentioned it
I've also seen people say it was good, while we both know it was shit, the shit that got flicked off of Regular Show's anus to be precise
It's just not a valid point when nobody in this thread was talking about it
>>78477388
It's worse than the last Looney Tunes incarnation, which was okay in some regards, but overall it wasn't good
>>78477395
>>78477414
The point is /co/ praises too many shows.
>>78477466
>the comics and cartoons boards has multiple opinions about many cartoons
fuck off
There's probably a WBB thread where people are jerking it to furry incestual bara and those same people will insist that it's a good show
>>78477395
Why did the Royals get green lit? Why couldn't we get more Over the Garden Wall.
>>78477351
SU has a tremendous amount of gay shipping and it still gets praised.
>>78477512
>Why did the Royals get green lit
The people who made it worked on Regular Show, they had an in, which is very important
>Why couldn't we get more Over the Garden Wall
Partly because more of a good thing isn't necessarily a good thing itself, partly because it had a good ending as a stopping point, partly because the creator isn't interested in expanding the series
>>78477533
That's because it has something else besides the gay shipping
>>78477510
There's probably an SU thread where people jerk off to the waifus and they'll still say it's a great show. Oh wait...
>>>/trash/
>>78477558
Oh yeah, POCs and unshaven legs.
>>78477678
That still makes WBB a useless show
>>78477540
Translation: the creator pulled a Alex Hirsch.
Fillmore
>The principal is the DA
>Fillmore is addicted to hot chocolate instead of coke
>Criminals smuggle candy instead of drugs

>>78477701
SU is more useless in a different sense.
>>78477727
>The main character is a POC
No thanks.
>>78477734
So not literally useless, like WBB
>>78478322
Pretty fucking useless.

Around the first half of season one builds something amazing, it's a shame it started going downhill, it couldn't capitalize
