I just clicked this thread to see if I recognized any of the shows on it.
I can confidently say...nope.

Have a hard time between Adventure Time and Young Justice.
Love both those shows to absolute pieces.
Voted Adventure Time though.

Adventure Time, mainly because its the only CN I watch, I have heard that The Regular Show is good though.
I enjoy Regular Show, but Adventure Time is still a rip snortin' good time.
Other than that, Amazing World of Gumball has a few good episodes.

It was a three way tie between Generator Rex, Young Justice and Thundercats for me. Voted for Rex largely because it's the only one of the three that isn't based on existing characters. (ok there was apparently a comic first but far as I can tell there was only one issue and lots was changed between them.)
Out of the poll above? Tough call. I like Thundercats and Young Justice, though I didn't see much of them (I should really get on that), Adventure Time and Regular Show are both good, Genrerator Rex is pretty badass, and I like that Scooby-Doo: Mysteries Incorporated has taken the series in a considerably darker direction.
*SIGH* Still, I miss the old days, back when the majority of cartoons on *Cartoon* Network were all worth watching, and there were no dumb live-action shows. I hate feeling old when I'm only in my 20's....

The only one I've really watched is Adventure Time. But regardless that show is great so I chose it.
You know something, a few wrong posts and this thread could take a turn for the worst.
Must. Resist. Stupidity impulse. Must not reply to certain people.
Honestly, there was a time period where I hated most new cartoons, now, after the whole CN Real thing that came and went, I'll take anything...and judge it meticulously, but still take it. I'm just glad any cartoons exist at this point, since there aren't that many on the air. Most of the shows below encouraged me to take a look at newer shows.
OT: Hmm, well I'd have to say Adventure Time. I had a love/hate relationship with this show. Wasn't of a fan of most earlier episodes, some were borderline annoying for me but later on they smoothed things out and the show kinda caught on to me. Can't wait till season 4!
Right behind it is Generator Rex, because I've always wanted a superhero like this to pop us since I was 10 years old. The whole machine-human-nanite thing has always seemed cool to me. Some of the sound effects sound out of place though...
Regular Show bodes well with me, though it seems to have the Tom-and-Jerry thing going on with me in terms of loving and hating the character. My childish half loved Jerry's antics while my adult half says, "Hey, Jerry is kinda an asshole." Same thing with these guys. Still love it.
Oh, and I nearly forgot the Amazing World of Gumball. Didn't look good to me at first, but after watching it, I must say I really like it. It's just so...I can't really describe it. What I mean is, I kinda feel like these are hyperboles of situations I've been in at some point.
Move MAD to Adult Swim and we're talk. I'm cool with the show, but it could be so much more on Adult Swim.
And Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated is growing on me. They're slowly but surely weeding out all the things I hated about the show, mainly that weird, relationship crap they tried to institute. Just work on not making the villains so obvious, and how they do things (Seriously, sonic concussion device? Chemical Hormones? What?) and we're gold. I love the whole Mr.E subplot running through the entire series, and this scene:
HAHAHA! Scrappy was terrible...
Edit: You know, now that I think about, I'm not sure whether these shows are actually good or if my standards have just gotten lower...doesn't matter, got toons.

Generator Rex and Young Justice are both fine by me, though the schedules seem iffy as of late.
This looks like the thread to have someone pitch me ideas: why would anyone watch a full episode of Adventure Time? I sat through one of the half-episodes they do, and the plot was so flimsy that my 9-year-old cousin was having trouble holding an interest. The entire storyline was this one plot twist that would make Shyamalan groan.
It's it right up there with MLP:FiM on the list of shows that have no appeal to anyone I've ever asked. What am I missing?
I also watched Regular Show right after, and that kicks ass. I don't know what it's about, but during the episode I watched, this one scene went balls to the walls when the gumball machine guy went Super Sayian and nearly killed the protagonists. Neither show is very good, but Adventure Time is squarely in second place there.
This is why I stopped watching cartoons, I think.

Yes I can consider them awesome because I go out of my way to watch them.Volf99 said:
Toonami is the past, sure it was good but it was the past, if it means that much go watch toonami jetstream or join one of the causes to resurrect it.
But I need people to watch new shows or get fuckin offed by the network
Like
Flapjack
Chowder
Symbionic Titan(especially symbionic titan)
and I wish shows like 6teen and stoked had lasted longer in the U.S. but they didnt even bother.
Also they show looney tunes in the morning and I think midday if they mean that much to you and as much as I watched them as a kid they are so old and played out for me to even argue for them to be on tv anymore, they have the Looney Tunes Show now and its not that different.
but point is these new shows are good and you must overcome your nostalgia and point your anger at networks not even trying with varied and new animation(nick and disney).
