    Avatar is my #1 favorite show and it's probably not going to change. No animated series is gonna be able to beat Avatar's epic storyline. I like Naruto, but it will never bear Avatar.

    Avatar is definitely is #1 for me. The others.. I'm not really sure. It's a big mix when it comes to that.

    House in my favorite show! Its beyond awesome! XD But err... i do believe the topic is top five cartoons XD

    Either way, just in my top five cartoons or shows in general, Avatar is in both of my top three XD

    House, Full Metal Alchemist and Avatar FTW! XD



    You mean Tritter? Ugh, I didn't like him. I didn't think the subplot was that bad...but I didn't like Tritter. Too bland.

    There can only be one House. XD

    I don't watch FMA, but definately Avatar and House FTW!


    Yeah, urgh. That Tritter arc was one of the worst things they could have added to the show >_> That kind of ruined season three a little for me...

    A ha ha! Wahoo! XD Go House and Avatar! XD

    Same here. I never get tired of House, but that'll probably be the worst subplot.

    How's season 4 going for you? I admit that I didn't care to invite a new team, but I'm glad they at least give Chase (shiny-haired Aussie yes-man) and Cameron some screentime.

    Whoops...going off topic. ^^;

    Quoted for truth.

    It's funny (and at the same time sad) because it's true.

    Did anyone here every watch the original TMNT cartoon or am I too old? I have like the first 10 volumes on VHS (remember those?) but no working VCR. I was also a sucker for the original Transformers and GI Joes (loved the PSAs). I also remember the 1st CGI series Reboot and Beast Wars. I highly recommend those two.

    A more recent favorite is Megas XLR, lols were abundant throughout that show though the animation was clunky in some parts...but then again I watched for the humor and not the visuals. Batman TAS was epic with many themes. Superman TAS had better animation but wasn't quite as good story wise, but I'm a Bat guy myself. JL and it's successor JLU were both great, filled with action and story.

    Grew up on Looney Tunes and Scooby-Doo and all the other Dooby-posers HB churned out of their sweat-shops. Flintstones and Jetsons were both filled with plenty of adult humor. Race Bannon was my role model and Hadji was my ideal sidekick. Speaking of Johnny Quest, if you like parodies there is one show that does it right: The Venture Brothers (3rd season starts this summer).

    Man, I should really get the Boomerang Channel. I realize most of those shows are crap by today's standards, but the nostalgic trip down Memory Lane would be worth the extra buck.

    I'm a bit on the young side for TMNT. My parents didn't really let me watch a lot of television when I was little anyway. There must be some kind of Freudian explanation as to why I'm now obsessed with cartoons... . I did have a friend who was absolutely obsessed with TMNT, though.

    I was never much of a superhero kid, but I do remember watching Batman. I liked Robin. JL had its moments, too.

    My Aunt liked Scooby Doo a lot and got me into that. I still have a Scooby Doo pillow shaped like a hamburger. It's pretty amazing.

    This is a close second with a show i'm sure few of you have seen, Time Warp Trio! And right behind Avatar is Fairly Odd Parents, Closely followed by Fetch!, then a tie between Danny Phantom and Bill Nye.

    Yes, I know i'm weird, but that's what I think.

    Time Warp Trio?

    Isn't that the book series with the kids in the treehouse that transports them to Pompeii and stuff?

    My sister reads those things as if they were the Bible.

    Avatar is my number one show. I love that it has plot and character development unlike some no brainer shows (spongebob). The only other show I watch is Deadliest Catch.

    Avatar is easily my number one favorite cartoon.

    Second is Teen Titans, which isn't on anymore.

    Third is Justice League. I mostly stopped watching it after it turned into Justice League: Unlimited, but it was a good show.

    That's about as far as it goes in terms of order. I've liked other cartoons like Invader Zim, Futurama, Kim Possible (minus the newest season), Jimmy Neutron, and even My Life as a Teenage Robot, but they're not worth listing in any order.

    3. A Goofy Movie

    4. Teen Titans

    I would put Toy Story, but that's 3-D animation.
