Animated telivision

[turtleco]

well everybody I've been on a huge tv animation kick recently and I just had to do this.
just discuss animated television here. Favorite animated tv show, cool history, recent developments, etc. Also, I don't know of any animated tv shows outside of the US, any good ones?

try to keep anime out of this (sorry, anime should just be a genre of its own)

and the genre would be called shit! oooooooooooooo jk... sorta

Now I have a feeling that 50% of people will say My Little Pony: FIM....

so... good luck trying to get my respect!

So what is my favorite animated TV show?

SYMBIONIC TITAN!

if you haven't seen it yet I reccomend watch the pilot d00d

why I think the show is good.

1. the show takes itself seriously, plenty of edgy action, that isn't the main focus.

2. the show has good characters. The main goal of the creator was to make a strong female character. Typically if a strong female character is well thought out, the others are also well thought out.

3. show has good morals. It tries to show a certain message in most of the episodes.

4. the creator is Genndy Tartakovsky, who created dexter's lab and samurai jack.

5. the series has a direction. Unlike dexter's lab and samurai jack the story actually had a progression, and an ending was planned out for sure. Not to say samurai jack or dexter's lab are bad shows though.

6. Animation and art is good. Characters are distinct and enjoyable to look at. Animation is really good, nuff said. There is CGI, but its used as a tool to help with the animation, instead of overshadowing it.

7. the show is a bit of a tragedy, Cartoon Network ended the series after the first 20 episodes. So, pity points?

so what are YOUR favorite shows?

(some good shows to spark your memory)
- Daria
- Clone High
- Undergrads
- liquid television

- the Maxx
- new thundercats
- avatar
- the critic
- batman: TAS
- chowder

honestly I couldn't care for the new one.

it starts out way farther than the original, and that girl character is annoying. Also it is resembles star wars episode 2 more than the original clone wars show... which I don't like. I liked how the original clone wars show did more development of the characters, and built up to general grevious (don't know how to spell that). also it feels like the new one doesn't want to end.

but that's just my opinion.
