TV & Film Cartoons you can't stand

[M.P]

I can't stand Phineas and Ferb. It creeps me out.


I hate New Girl for some reason, even though people used to tell me I was exactly like the girl on that show. My Hulu is always playing it when I run out of episodes of whatever I was originally watching because it thinks I will like it. But I dont.


Uncle Grandpa and Clarence. They are turning a generation of children into idiots.


Bratz, the new Strawberry Shortcake, Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Aqua Team Hunger Force, American Horror Story ( I know, for shame. ), and that show where dogs and cats are firemen and police.

 

[heliconia]

I can't stand Modern Spongebob. The older epsiodes were definitley the best.

 

[Under the Bridge]

Japanese cartoons.

 

[Sesquipedalian]

I avoid many cartoons nowadays in general. Especially Cartoon Network. No offense to anyone who enjoys watching those strange and sometimes rather disturbing shows, but I can practically feel my brain cells dying just from glimpsing an advertisement for Uncle Grandpa while babysitting. I don't understand the appeal of all the rude humor and idiotic characters.


Then there is Dora the Explorer. Even as a child, I disliked that show. "Can you find the MOUNTAIN?" Hmm, nope, I don't see the giant triangle between the flat field and green forest.

The Simpsons. It used to be so much better back in the early 2000's and 1990's. Then the movie came around, and the whole series went on a nosedive from there.

 

[Afterthought]

Back when I was a small thing, I never watched any of the shows on Disney. I didn't necessarily dislike the cartoons, though. I just enjoyed Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon more.


I have a general dislike for cartoons that run beyond their time. Much as I loved SpongeBob and The Fairly Odd Parents as a kid, I find any of the new episodes I stumble upon awful to watch now.

I remember reading an article on this a few months ago. Apparently, cartoons today are awful because of large budget cuts. Since kids these days don't watch that much TV any more, companies don't get as much revenue, and thus, their products got worse.

The last big budget cartoon I know of that I like is Transformers Prime, and even then that had a huge amount of trouble behind the scenes because of stuff like difficult toy sales (the targeted audience for TFP were preteens, teens, and adults) and a budget that went out of control. By the end of the 3rd and last season supposedly the budget went as high as 1.3 million per episode. This might be a reason why its designated sequel is far more simplified in toyline, animation, art style, and plot.

It seems that I'm the only one on this entire website that HATES anime. Any anime show I see makes me want to throw up, mainly due to the stupid people and low frame-rate xD The music for ones I've seen thus far also suck... Seriously though, most songs on anime shows can be made by an 8 year old on some free software. It can also be extremely childish...


~Conclusion of my hate on anime... Please don't kill meh.

I don't like anime that much either. Mainly because of the fanatics.

 

[idyllic]

I feel like this may be quite an unpopular opinion, but I really don't like Rick and Morty. It's not entertaining to me at all.


In regards to anime, I find that many can be really fantastic, but way more of them are horrible. It just depends on what you like, anime isn't for everyone.

 

[Pashpu]

I don't really watch any cartoons anymore, so this is me just judging by the cover: I really hate the animation style of many cartoons I've heard about like Phineas and Ferb as well as the annoying nasal voices.

 

[Killer Queen]

Uncle Grampa


I hate it so much


I love Steven Universe but that crossover episode they did made me wanna vomit

Hmm... Yeah. I've only seen glimpses of certain animes, and the stories may be really good, but the frame-rate is a deal-breaker for me xD I don't know why, I guess it can sometimes look stupid and I literally can't take the anime seriously /:

 

[DaManofWar]

One anime I recommend is One Punch Man. It actually parodies your typical anime.

 

[adrian_]

Does it count if i got Nightmares of Wallace and Gromit as a kid?

WTF? How? Was it a Close Shave?

Wallace's flat face creeped me out.

 

[DaManofWar]

Wallace's flat face creeped me out.

 

[adrian_]

Yeah, that.

 

[eclipsa]

teen titans go tbh. i laugh at it sometimes but its ruined the titans and made a lot of the characters borderline/extremely abusive and it's awful. the animation sucks.

 

[Jameston]

My Little Pony and it's fanbase.

 

[Sitcas]

Teen Titans Go. Teen Titans Go. Teen Titans Go. Teen Titans Go.


Why would they do this to me! They have ruined the show. The art is worse, the plot is worse ( What plot?!). Now its just some idiotic thing with blind humor. It has lost everything that used to be so near and dear to me.

 

[nikitagem]

My dislike for cartoons USUALLY stems from how I feel about the style and animation, since if I don't like that I won't even bother watching the actual thing. Although I love a lot of Cartoon Network shows, so MANY of their new shoes have the same art style! Clarence, Steven Universe, Regular Show, etc. all look EXTREMELY similar. Not to mention the sudden change in Steven Universe's art style around episode 20, and then again around episode 50. (This could just be chalked up to budget increase thought)


Then there's the Power Puff Girls reboot. The PPGs themselves look really out of place in their own show? The other characters look like they belong more in Uncle Grandpa (WHICH IS A SHOW I LOATHE! Both because it's just a terrible show with terrible humour and because I think the art is hideous!)


I enjoyed Gravity Falls. Plot was pretty good, although I found the ending very rushed and EXTREMELT anti-climatic. I also thought the animation was boring - it all felt mechanical. I think it was the lack of squash and squish.


Then there's Hasbro cartoons. Littlest Pet Shop, My Little Pony (which I also hate because of the fanbase), and Equestrian Girls (which was solely created to compete with Mattel's Monster High and Ever After High by targeting an older age bracket than Littlest Pet Shop and MLP). Their animation is so BORING and STIFF! I get its for kids who don't really care about that, but I feel bad about the people who have to animate it.


Monster High and Ever After High have similar animation styles (although Minster High had


been getting into 3D modelling lately, which I think works for it),


but Mattel tends to have better humour and storylines, which definitely makes up for it. I think Mattel's better animation comes from the fact their animation models are based off the production art for the toys, rather than being created based around the toys like Hasbro does. (An exception to this is the new Barbie series, but it's animation is stylized so that the characters are still dolls, so their movements and expressions make sense and WORK).


Not to mention animations worst enemy, Seth MacFarlene. It's terrible. Awful. I hate it. Plus the humour is just terrible and completely not funny.


This got really long and a bit out of hand but animation is one of my favourite things. Ever.

1.Clarence


Ohh, how I hate that show. What's it even supposed to mean? Some kid going on dumb adventures with bland plotline (no plotline) bland humour (actually change that to No humour) stupid plot/story in episodes (not overall plotline). Just seeing it gives me a colossal headache. I think the guys made it sabotage our next generation into dumb 'Clarence-like' creatures. And what kind of name is 'Clarence'?


2. Teen titans Go!


Okay, I kinda have to admit that it does have some funny moments but that's where all the compliments and pros end. Characters literally don't have any emotion, no rationality, not even a bit like their original versions. It does a complete flip of the original teen titans. Everything is bad, where is slade anyway? The biggest nemesis just kinda disappeared out in the air. And damn the animation. I think the guys who wrote/produced/animated/directed it didn't even see the original version.


3. Uncle Grandpa


Nonsensical story, too random and not in a funny way, the only character with some semblance of humour being gus and Steve, the rest being total junk. Repeated jokes, flat jokes, cannot-understand jokes, unfunny jokes. But I do have to admit that I'm quite strangely drawn to it but nevertheless, the only character I feel isn't garbage is mr. Gus who still has some normality left In him, which still gets overridden by that stupid grandpa. Some episodes are utter stupid.


Now, episodes that actually are good:


1.Regular show


Damn it, this show is too good. Funny, random yet not-scattered plotline. Easy to digest. Fun. Very original, except for a few episodes, which are kinda disappointing in terms scope, freshness and originality, only a few episodes.


2. Adventure time


I agree that it's kinda scattered or nonsensical at some points, but nevertheless, it has a deep plotline, and character history, even if it's shown with humour, it still has those more deeper meanings that kids cannot understand.


3.We bare bears


Definitely a fun and easy watch. This series is quite great in terms of it's portrayal of how a being different from humanity are trying to fit in with society, of course, with hilarious endings and efforts.
