Thundercats, cause I don't want to feel mainstream here. From the little I've seen of it, it is alright.
Haha, I fucking love that scene. Ed, Edd, n Eddy was glorious, practically my favorite cartoon. The movie rapped everything up so nicely.General BrEeZy said:
Though, I really hope people don't just come into this thread to post that. Wait, too late. I loved the classics too, but please don't just come here to post your distaste for the newer stuff. Now at least you were humorous about it, General. Other people are jus-nope, not gonna start anything.
Ah yes, I believe that episode was called Thick Positive. Well Mordecai and Rigby, the main protagonists, are what you'd call slackers. Relatively okay guys, but they aren't really good workers.sooperman said:
Now their boss Benson, the gumball machine guy, follow the rules, work hard kinda fellow, typically does what any boss does to slackers. Yells at them to get back to work or else they're fired, etc. However, this appears to be bothering another character, Pops, an older gentlemen who is technically Benson's boss. He tells Benson to stop yelling at Mordecai and Rigby and putting them down, or else he's fired, kinda putting Benson in a place he's never really been before.
Benson tries to explain how the protagonist need to be yelled at to get anything done, but Pops is kinda one of those naive, hands-out-lolipos kinda old guys. After a few failed attempts at calmly talking to the characters and handling his frustration, he bottles up all his anger for an entire day.
Which apparently causes Benson to reach some sorta critical mass of anger, where if he holds his anger in any longer, he's kinda gonna nuke the entire town. So, Pops quickly tells him that he needs to yell at Mordecai and Rigby, or he's fired. (though he probably doesn't mean this literally, only as a way to save Benson from himself) So, to stop himself from getting fired, he unloads all his anger and emotions on the protagonists.
So yeah, there's that. As for adventure Time...I'm kinda tired of trying to change a person's opinion. If I do, it's not like I actually get anything out of it, so I don't really care what you think. Believe what you want to believe.
Edit: Though, so I don't come of as lazy and trying to wiggle my way out of an explanation, I guess a lot of people enjoy it because...well, some people genuinely like the characters, find the adventures enjoyable, think the show is actually humorous, and a good chunk of the fanbase is out trying to piece together Adventure Time's whole backstory. Oh, and this:
I haven't watched traditional TV in ages... Netflix has totally taken it's place. I however, have been recording and watching Young Justice. I'm a bit surprised it's losing by such a large number... >>
Anyway, I picked Young Justice because from what I've seen it's an excellent cartoon that also reminds me of past excellent D.C. cartoons. It's no Batman or Teen Titans... but it's still pretty damn awesome.

Mmm... I... Regular Show kind of pushes this ahead of the old Cartoon Network.Amberella said:
I still miss the old one, but this is more than a worthy replacement.
What about "Star Wars: The Clone Wars?" It's a pretty decent show, and they actually made Anakin an interesting and likeable character. It's also one of the network's bigger name shows, I mean come on, you have MAD up there, and it's definitely more watchable than that.
Regular Show. It's very funny, has interesting Characters (Even if the two main characters are only better version of "Bros" from horror movies), and some awesome fight scenes. MAD Comes in second because it's really really funny.
I think Adventure Time is okay, but I find it really Creepy that a 13 year old is in love with a 20-some year old. I just find that really creepy. I also find it creepy that this 20-some might have the same feelings for the 13 year old (Pedophelia much). It also was just as creepy with the Gender Bent episode, which also got worse because *MAJOR SPOIL* it was a Fanfic from the Ice King (He's got a sad backstory btw)*END MAJOR SPOIL*.

The Total Drama Series. I used to watch it back before I knew that Cartoon Network aired it pretty late compared to other countries, so now I just watch the episodes online. Heck, the 4th season is half-way over in Canada and it hasn't even been announced to air on Cartoon Network.
I actually like Adventure Time and Regular Show equally but I chose Regular Show cause it was losing, Also the Amazing World of Gumball is surprisingly bearable
Well, actually, here's the thing about that. You see, those emotions that the 20 something (18 actually) you said might be feeling, are gone...like completely. Explanation: Well, you see for awhile, she was turned into a 13 year old too. They had feelings, etc. However, once they managed to change her back, whenever he tried to mention them, she simply said something a long the lines of "grow up, that was like 5 years ago" and casually walks off. So yeah... feelings gone.Mr.Mattress said:
Besides, they've actually introduced a new love interest character his age. Flame Princess, who, through a series of unfortunate events, kinda hates him...and is apparently 'considered' evil.
Plus, how is it weird that a 13 year old has a crush on an older woman? He may be one of the only humans in this world, but hormones still exist. And I'm pretty sure plenty of people have felt minor attractions to an older woman. I saw a weird post the other day...
Yeah, I know about the whole *Turn Young, Turn Old* thing. I saw that bit. But I highly doubt the Princess doesn't have any feelings for Finn. Plus, the Princess ages really differently then Finn: The length of her hair determines her age (Apparently). I never actually saw the episode where she grew up, but I highly doubt that her 5 years equals ours, otherwise, Finn would have grown up with her.TheNaut131 said:
I don't wanna know about the post, but to me, it's just weird. To me, it's akin to a 40 something wanting to date a 60 something.
Lastly, I don't know if Flame Princess is permenant or a one time character. If she is, that could create an interesting dynamic. However, I have a feeling she was a one timer.
Huh, well the plot to Regular Show sounds thoroughly tolerable. I'll have to investigate further.TheNaut131 said:
Also, I think you've answered my question. That clip was genuinely funny and I can imagine watching more of that. I don't plan on buying the DVDs, but I think I see it. So kudos to you, and for what its worth, you've changed an opinion.
Well, actually, she is made of...bubblegum. So apparently her body mass is directly proportional to her age. Point is, time didn't actually pass. Only she got older, and apparently it feels like aging for her, because to her it feels like it's been five years. Everyone else stayed the same age. In earlier episodes, she kinda hinted emotions towards him, but after this episode they're never seen again. She has actually hinted the exact opposite feelings of attraction at times. So yeah, as said before, feelings gone.Mr.Mattress said:
As for the Flame Princess, the creators have stated that she is to be a driving force for the 4th season. The episode where she is introduced is actually season 3's finale, came out the day before Valentine's day. She is going to play a major role in the 4th season. The creator says it, I'll role with it.
As for Finn, well it appears they're trying to make him move on. He seems to be moving past this crush on a woman he'll never be able to actually have, but it's pretty obvious he'll run into a "keep trying this" or "move on already" choice.
I came here all ready to give a vote for Courage the Cowardly Dog or Powerpuff Girls, but sadly this is only discussing new cartoons that I haven't seen.
I heard that Courage is supposedly getting new episodes or something soon though, so that gets my vote!

No Samurai Jack? No Dexter's Lab? Courage the Cowardly Dog? Kids Next Door?
your list makes me sad.
