Hell yes that !@#$% was so cash

Watch this clip and then try to tell me it sucked (Protip: you can't)
47 seconds cannot make up for over 10 years of horribly fake stunts. Again, if you hadn't liked it as a child, you wouldn't like it now.

fyi: I enjoyed Power Rangers as a child, I simply dont let nostalgia rule over my brain.

Power Rangers wasn't a cartoon.
I never said it was. But it's something children like. I used it as an example to show that children will enjoy anything, even if it's not very good.

Power Rangers was the !@#$% back in the day.

Hell yes that !@#$% was so cash

All that proves is that Jason David Frank is awesome.  Show a Power Rangers clip without the Green/White Ranger and it will suck.

The best cartoons are from the early era...way before my time. 1940-70 had the best stuff...

Tom and Jerry, Road Runner, Sylvester and Tweety. Sure, some of these have 'modern' versions out, but the new stuff doesn't hold a candle to those older, better versions.

Of course DangerMouse (1981 to 1992) was pretty !@#$% awesome too.

Oh come on. The DCAU was, collectively, the finest cartoon programming EVER.

Sure, Static Shock tried a little too hard to be gangsta (and fell flat on its arse most of the time) and the Superman cartoon was inconsistent at best, but the Batman series (plural) plus the movies plus Justice League more than made up for it.

... this I cannot debate so much!

As long as we're agreed on the fact that the DCAU was !@#$% awesome and it's a shame it didn't last forever.

(Okay maybe they were running a little thin on material... still! It made me very sad when it ended.)

Jesus, there have been lots and lots of good cartoon the last few years.

Samurai Jack
Avatar the Airbender
Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends
Total Drama Island
Dexter's Lab (that might be a bit too old. Also the newer episodes suck)
The Metroid Anime (oh, my bad, that only exists in my dreams D:)
Billy and Mandy
Teen Titans
That's just off the top of my head


Below are some more adult cartoon, may not qualify *shrugs*
Futurama
Family Guy
Venture Bros
The Boondocks

Family Guy

That show just plain sucks. Sorry but its repetitive. Its jokes revolved around "Remember when I *something* with *Someone annoying/famous*" *flashback*.

Personally, cartoons like Chowder and Flapjack have made it seem like something that is decent, creative, and artistically different can be viable.

Flapjack is alright if you watch enough of it, it is just that different and odd to get used to liking.  I like Captain K'nuckles and other things about the show.  It feels odder if you watch it after Spongebob Squarepants though.

Samurai Jack - Amazing storytelling and tasty artwork
Avatar the Airbender - compelling characters and story
Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends - Funnier than most of the stuff on Adult Swim.
Total Drama Island - Awesome spoof of Survivor, with interesting character interactions
Teen Titans - Compelling villans and plots, as well as excellent action scenes.

though I'm not really an Avatar fan myself (I don't watch TV much) but from what I've seen that show had amazing animation if nothing else. It was a nice blend of eastern and western animation that worked really well.
