CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

What AMerican Cartoons are the most underrated? Here are my choices:
The Secret of Nimh
Exosquad
Reboot
Gargoyles (why won't Disney finish this?:rant:)
Pirates of Dark Water

Wasn't that Canadian?
Or are you talking about the general American continent as a whole?

I was unaware of that.

Your right, it was.

Gargoyles ended because they tried a new storyline and mess it up big time. After that, people stop watching it and they just didn't add any more eps of it.

How about Dexter's Laboratory? I really liked it. They're playing it on Boomerang now, and I'm very surprised because I still think of it as a new thing.

What I meant by them finishing it Roy, was the DVD version. It has yet to completely collect the entire series.

YES. I was quite disappointed when the series abruptly ended with the discovery of the 8th treasure of Rule. This is a special case wherein the quality of the series (it had extraordinary production values for its time) was cause of its demise.

I loved Pirates of Dark Water! Watching the production value fall through the floor was painful. Even as a kid I realized it was bad. I have had a secret wish for a while the current entertainment industries obsession with retro titles might result in it being picked up again.
Also, the TV show Cro. I used to love watching that show, but educational shows usually get canceled early.

The Secret of Nimh

I agree with you there.

Gargoyles

I agree with you there as well.

Pirates of Dark Water

This series had incredible potential. I think about it often and wish the series could have had a more decent run.

My only contribution to this list is:

The Critic.

T'was a good series. Had lots of potential and was equal at times with The Simpsons.

Don't blame them for it, blame people for not going out and buying the dvds.

The release of Season 2, volume 2 was axed, because volume 1 did not sell enough copies.

So, there is hardly any chance of them putting it out on dvd now, if people were not going out and buying them.

Its the same reason why Exo-Squad hasn't been put out on dvd as well, they fear that it will not do very well on dvd.


I can list one cartoon show that is very underrated is Invasion America.

On an Anime board?

All of them.

*blows whistle*

Cheap shot- unoriginal and predictable diss- five yard penalty.

Remains first down.

Hmm, I don't know if the ones I am going to list are underrated but they're worthy of mentioning (at least IMHO).

Pepper Ann

The Weekenders

As Told By Ginger

X-Men Evolution (which for a time was going strong until ratings dropped and it was canned. Though I doubt the new series will ever air since they keep pushing it farther into the future.)

Static Shock

Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi - It wasn't the best show but compared to what CN has on now this was gold. :/ I wish they would've aired all 39 episodes.

Every other cartoon I love is either French or Italian-animated. ^_^

Dude, just go to thatguywiththeglasses.com and click on "Nostalgia Critic".

Bobby's World and The Raccoons were very underrated, but GREAT shows.

OOC: K. Ayato, thatguywiththeglasses.com is literally the best site on the web!

I just thought of another one. The Littles, which was based on the books of the same name. It was about a group of mice-like humans who lived in our walls. I loved it!
