Top 10 Animated Shows

Okay so for those of you who don't know, I'm a huge fan of television. In fact, pretty soon, I'll be starting a new blog to write about my favourite television shows. You don't even know! Anywho I'm just going to get to it. This is a list of my top 10 favourite animated Shows.

10. Robot Chicken (I'm including Claymation in animation)

If Seth Green was taller, he'd be my dream guy. I think this show is absolutely hilarious. Some of their best material is the stuff based on Star Wars. If you're down, you should def check out Robot Chicken Star Wars. It's absolutely hilarious.

9. Freaky Stories

A series of awesome short stories that happened to a friend of a friend of mine. Fantastic.

8. Gargoyles

I remember watchin Gargoyles when I was young and I started watching it again recently and it was nothing like I remembered. It's a great series riddled with emotion and a not-so-subtle gargoyle/human love story. <3

7. American Dad

In my opinion, it's the best of the Seth Mcfarlane series. Plus I find Stan absolutely hilarious/lovable.

6. The Venture Bros.

Holy eff! Where have I been for the last few years? This show is absolutely awesome! While I personally find the Monarch the star of the show the Venture Bros is absolutely the unsung hero of late-night animated television. It is hilarious, and ridiculous (and I have a total crush on Doc Hammer, pictured below in human and animation form/ one of the creators/ voice actors of the show). Go Team Venture!

5. The Simpsons

To me, the Simpsons is absolutely timeless. Though there's no doubt that they're best episodes were all from the past, I still catch the new episodes every Sunday at 8pm. My favourites are still the Treehouse of Horrors, anything with Sideshow Bob. I feel like the show could always use more Bob.

4. X-Men: Evolution

I was originally reluctant to watch this show because of my die-hard committment to the original animated version so I was really surprised that when I watched it, it was extremely entertaining and far better than I had imagined. I regret not having watched the series when it was on television.

3. X-Men: The Animated Series

I adore this series because of how true it is to the comic book. I also love the maturity of the content and the style of drawings for animation in the early 90s.

2. Batman: The Animated Series

Straight up, Bruce Wayne is effing hot in this series. Also it's beyond entertaining. The storylines are great and the villains are greater. The voice cast is perfect and Batman's not a drag in this series.

1. Avatar: The Last Airbender

It's hard to look at this show and think of it as animated because of the depths of the storylines and concepts and the fact that it was just hilarious. There is no equivalent to this show and you get so attached to the characters that their journey is that much more compelling.


Honorable mentions go to She-Ra: Warrior Princess and Sailor Moon (which are both definitely in my top 10 childhood shows)
