The New/Current Good Cartoon Threads

[fairyoracle75]

I know a lot of you like cartoons here, like me, and we've lamented that there just aren't that many good cartoons to replace ones that have left. Nostalgia is great but there are some good cartoons still running and even new ones. So let's point each other to some of them. This isn't an anime thread:

Well, I've fallen in love with this cartoon. Its called Phineas and Ferb and every episode has at least one song and they all are extremely clever. I had to share at least a couple since I'm prety sure at least some of you will get a laugh out of them:

Great Writing So Far on this with a fresh take on Spidey by the creator of Gargoyles:

An Homage to the acton cartoons of the 70s with a modern day spin:

Believe it or not this one feels a lot more like the old action adventure style show of the 80s:

Season One wasn't that great but so far the second season has been good:

Still has either a special or a few new episodes each year and going strong:

Another extremely clever that had some recent additions like this send up of star wars and all movies in Wishology:

Total Drama is a smart parody of reality shows and how rediculous they are. 2 seasons so far and this season's titled "Total Drama Action":

And somehow this one has grown on me. Its rediculous, funny and somehow smart at the sametime;

And of course we still have more adult shows like the Simpsons and Family Guy.

Re: The New/Current Good Cartoon Threads

The only recent cartoon I have ever been able to get excited about is Avatar: The Last Airbender, and it has absolutely nothing to do with how it is clearly anime influenced.

Other cartoons though, there is a certain style to them I just don't like. I see an episode of Gargoyles and I still think it holds up well after all this time. But I watch it and I also wonder if it a cartoon like it could be made these days.

Re: The New/Current Good Cartoon Threads

The best cartoons were in the 1980's and 90's with the only exception being the Loony Toons (oh god How old are those cartoons?)
