Which one of you...( Morphed my thread into a cartoon debate?)
- Thread starter Grayhead
- Start date
The only one I disagreed with you on was SpongeBob - I think you were spot on with the rest of your opinions.
Great shows. I think each one of the top 4 was my favorite show at some point in my childhood. A couple others I liked were Rocko's Modern Life and The Angry Beavers, and I found The Wild Thornberry's to have it's moments as well.
Yesss. Angry Beavers! That episode where they have the race around their house (dam) was pretty awesome I remember. And Wild Thornberrys was good too. I just didn't list it because I didn't know if others liked it. I loved all those Nickelodeon shows. Ahh! Real Monsters, Jimmy Neutron, all that ish.
@heelz2345 this thread proves that there are enough cartoons for the TV show tournament.
F it, let's just do a cartoon tournament.
Also, great work OOTB. It's only Wednesday and we have reached Friday-level productivity
I am 100% for a cartoon tournament, just as long as Ren & Stimpy doesn't get hosed like Froot Loops did.
We'll let G7 pick the refs
I'm not sure we could get to 64 cartoons that are worthy for consideration. Maybe just do 32?
Of course that won't happen. Unlike Froot Loops, Ren & Stimpy is actually good.
I'm sure we could name 64, but probably half of them wouldn't be worthy. Kind of like a 16 seed. They would just be filler.
Real talk, does anyone still use this as slang for p***y? It has been completely eradicated from my generation's lexicon. Literally no one.
All I know is that Tiny Toons needs to be a high seed because of its theme song. That used to be my jam.
Tiny Toon was a good one. Not sure if it would be a high seed, but it would be one of those ones that could sneak into the finals as a 5-10 seed.
Several co-workers I had in NC had a field day when I told them I was moving to Beaver City. And I only use it on special occasions.
@TarHeelNation11 Another issue we would run into with nothing but cartoons is how do you separate into regions. Pretty much all cartoons are comedy based, so how would you separate them?
You don't. You just seed them in groups of four (four 1s, four 2s, four 3s) and then randomly assign them. If you did it by decade, too many good ones would get eliminated within their own regional.
I thought about that, but that would be tough given the quality of cartoons available in certain generations. You would end up with teams that should be in consideration for a top seed get beat out only to have a 2010's cartoon be represented in the finals. I'm not sure I would seed a 2010's cartoon higher than a 10 seed.
Ok, so how are we going to decide who should be what seed? Are we just going to all vote for each seed and then vote who should win the matchups? Seems like too much work.
Forgot this one -- King of the Hill has to be included. That one was always hilarious.
I don't, but I do remember this. It was my toilet entertainment back in the day.Remember this game?!
If you dont include He-man and thundercats, I'll kick you out my thread.
The tourney will be super skewed with the generation gaps on here. Plus some of us could care less about some of the dirtier type adult toons.

Hell yeah on He-Man. That was just barely before my time, but my brother is four years older than me and was all in on He-Man. We used to play with He-Man action figures for hours on end. If you didn't have Castle Grayskull, then you were lame as hell.
Ok, the he-man mention gave me an idea for the regions, but I can only think of three. Anyone got a fourth?
-Superhero cartoon (Batman, He-man, etc.)
-young kids cartoon (Looney Toons, SpongeBob, etc.)
-adult cartoon (Simpsons, south park, etc.)
-Superhero cartoon (Batman, He-man, etc.)

-adult cartoon (Simpsons, south park, etc.)
I would include them in the family category.
Your idea was interesting, but you are basically having to vote at least twice (three times if you want to vote on which region). I'm not sure we could get enough participation for two votes.
I think it would just be easier to have an animated region in the TV show bracket that @heelz2345 mentioned.
