Assessing cartoons may be more difficult than other art. And anyway, several of our oldest TV memories are related to a cartoon series, movie, or program. Some shows simply click. They strike the right proper moment and grab a budding imagination. Take a look at some of the fascinating TV shows of all time. What made them tick? What made them stick? And more importantly, what can we still learn from them? Here is our list of the best:
Johnny Bravo
When you look back on old programs or films, it’s not unusual to see that some of your favorite amusing cartoon characters aged terribly. Maybe the jokes are extremely offensive, or the formerly loveable peculiarities now make you cringe. But something about Johnny Bravo, the self-centered, aspiring playboy, stays charming.
The episode includes Johnny continually flirting and failing with ladies on the show, looking at his picture, and being an all-around hippie. Johnny pulls a lot of pranks on his best friend Karl, which makes you wonder about their friendship and friendship of other shows like Tom and jerry. Furthermore, it makes us wonder, are Tom and Jerry best friends?
Captain Planet
With magical rings provided by Gaia, the soul of the Planet, five young people from all around the world band up with Captain Planet to help combat the horrors of degradation. And throughout six seasons, no wicked stone is left untouched.
From materialism, injustice, sickness, and even the HIV/AIDS problem, the program tackles far more than basic level ecology.
Extreme Dinosaur
We originally encountered our triad of crazy dinos in 1997 during the final episodes of Street Sharks. Known originally as the Dino Vengers, it wasn’t until September that they premiered in a cartoon of their own, under the new moniker of Extreme Dinosaurs.
The first season, comprising 52 episodes, was received positively by critics and public audiences alike. It was likely owing to the love of dinosaurs in general as well as the great quality of the animation. It really makes us wonder if a dinosaur with 500 teeth existed?
Courage the Cowardly Dog
One of Cartoon Network’s oddest cartoons, Courage the Cowardly Dog, was originally shown in 1996. It followed a worried, animated pink dog, Courage, fostered by an old couple who dwell in the Heart of Nowhere. Courage had to toss aside his anxieties throughout every episode, confronting mystical powers, monsters, vampires, and other legitimately terrible things to save his people, who were sometimes unaware of the threat waiting around the corner.
Codename: Kids Next Door
Codename: Kids Next Door has a superb animation style and five primary characters, each with a distinct appearance and design. The sitcom featured the five friends, called the Kids Next Door, as they hang out in their treehouse and attempt to evade adult responsibilities.
Every team member, each allocated a number, has a specific talent that they use to overcome adults attempting to convince them to go and do stuff they wouldn’t want to do, such as visiting the dentist.
Over the Garden Wall
Over the Garden Wall is an American children’s TV series developed for Cartoon Network. The story revolves around two brothers who trek through a mystical forest to make their way home, experiencing a variety of unusual and wondrous creatures on their quest.
Elijah Wood and Collin Dean portray the heroes Wirt and Greg, while Melanie Lynskey plays Beatrice, a bluebird. The miniseries’ voice talent includes Christopher Lloyd, Thomas Lennon, Jack Jones, Jerron Paxton, John Cleese, and Shannyn Sossamon.
Ed, Edd, and Eddy
Creator Danny Antonucci devised the program on a dare, having created The Brothers Grunt and renowned for his explicit humor. The program featured three lads called Ed, Edd, and Eddy. They were viewed as the misfits of the neighborhood.
While they (mainly Eddy) sought to cheat them out of their money to purchase Jawbreakers, they simultaneously tried to be their buddies. Fans were won over by the quirky characters (particularly the three Eds), the weird and unpredictable comedy, and the flip animation style.
