You're going to hate this man

Eh, that's Wizard for you - the magazine whose editorial staff need Ritalin. You want consistency, then you look to a different publication. They had one years ago where Pandamonium was the worst cartoon ever, which is a show so obscure I've never heard of it.
 
I knew of Pandamonium, I've read about it, but I've never actually seen it. Either my local CBS affiliate at the time didn't carry the show, or it was on opposite something else I liked. In any regard, based on what I've heard, there are far worse shows than Pandamonium, and I've actually seen several examples.
 
All I can say is everybody is entitled to an opinion ... even stupid people. ;)

Many of the cartoons listed serve as templates for modern shows. Classics such as Silverhawks, Scooby and Transformers had a number of writers; some were well written, some were filler-quality. Every show is like that. Shows like Pokemon brought anime mainstream in the 1990s, even more than Robotech did in the 1980s. While I'm no anime lover, those of you who are had better be thankful (or else you'd still be importing $30 DVDs in Japanese only!).

If I had to create a list of worst cartoons ever, most of them would be shows from the 1970s and 2000s. Nick and Cartoon Network tend to be homes for the worst modern shows. And that's kind of sad, if you think about it. Cartoons in the 70s were still trying to understand the medium for television, while the modern 2000s cartoons are trying to be more vulgar and "different".

Good thing I have DVDs to watch.
 
Hmm... when the subject came up at another board, someone posted the list in this order:


Scooby Doo
Turbo Teen
Jabberjaw
Drac Pack
Yo Togi
Chuck Norris and Karate Kommandos
Avengers United We Stand
Godzilla Power Hour
Little Rosie
Life With Louie

Can anyone verify which is right?
(in case anyone's wondering, I collect these lists :sweat:)
 
There was actually stuff going on in those cartoons, though. Goof Troop was like a bad sitcom. I also have to wonder where all the duck people were in Goof Troop? I mean, those other shows had different types of animals, but Goof Troop only had dog people. Were they trying to promote segregation or what? I also had a problem with the way Goofy's arms were black when he wore a shirt, but then when he took off his shirt, his arms and body appeared tan.

I actually think the list left out a lot of shows. Thundercats and Voltron need to be on that list.
 
An even worse case of species segregation than Goof Troop was Quack Pack. The show allegedly took place in Duckberg (the same place that DuckTales was set in), and yet except for the titular Ducks themselves, everyone was human. So what happened to the other anthros?
 
I can actually tolerate a lot of shows from my childhood. Goof Troop is okay, the old episodes of Pokemon still entertain me sometimes, and even The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh is still a good show to me.
I don't hate the guy though. He was a bit harsh, but not venemous per se.
