AAGH BLAGH NEW SHOWS ARE LAME WAAAAGHAAAGH BOOBOOOOOOOO--The average internet user, 200#-2012This is a topic to discuss modern cartoons and how awesome they are. Anything starting from the early 2000s is acceptable, but stuff from the past five years or so is preferred. (So like from 2007-now)Most people nowadays talk about present-day western animation as the "worst thing evers," which usually translates to "Everything after I hit puberty sucks." More often it's severe cases of Complaining About Shows You Don't Watch (Also known as the most stupid form of arguing), or things they barely pay attention to. People tend to watch the past with ultra thick nostalgia goggles and the present with cynicism specs. They judge new shows by brief previews and advertisements. Often they will disregard anything new just because it's new without even giving it a chance. The bottom line is, they think new stuff is generally very bad.I disagree!I think there is as many great cartoons now as there were in the past. I think there were the same percentage of bad cartoons (Probably more, now that I think about it) that were totally terrible back then. There will always be bad things, but there are also always gems amongst the mediocre and downright unwatchable. This is a show to discuss those great ones.Presently, there are four main channels with good (great) cartoons in them. As a way to start off discussion, these are the ones I consider to be great cartoons. (Bolded is for extra goodness) Dates listed are the years they started, the ending year is only included if it's actually ended.Disney Channel:-Gravity Falls (2012)Nickelodeon:-Legend of Korra (2012)-Avatar: The Last Airbender (2006-2008)The HUB:-Dan Vs. (2010)-My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic (2010)-Transformers Prime (2010)Cartoon Network:-Transformers Animated (2007-2009)-The Clone Wars (2008)-Adventure Time (2010)-Regular Show (2010)-Generator Rex (2010-2012)-The Amazing World of Gumball (2011)-Ben 10 Omniverse (2012)The idea of this list is to give you something to throw the rotten vegetables at. Disagree with me! Tell me how wrong (or right) I am! I am all for encouraging discussion. Let's debate it up as much as possible in here. Any and all opinions welcome.
