Top 10 Cartoon Shows of the 2010s


if you think quality animated
programming died out in the 90s and
early 2000s you’re either getting old or
you’re being a big baby what is that
reason welcome to watchmojo.com and
today we’re counting down our picks for
the top ten cartoon shows of the 2010s
you are a bad boy
I’ve never been with a bad boy before
that makes me a bad girl for this list
we’re taking a look at the game-changing
cartoons that premiered or peaked in
popularity between 2010 and 2015 my
testicles summer where are my testicles
summer they were removed
where have they gone however we’re
excluding anime your toys cannot hurt my
creations yeah I’m not a genius like you
so I found one and he made me some new
arrows number 10 The Avengers
Earth’s Mightiest Heroes that’s that’s a
restricted shield frequency much like in
the Marvel Cinematic Universe The
Avengers
Earth’s Mightiest Heroes established
each major character with their own
individual episode I’m not ant-man
you are now after a big prison breakout
though Iron Man Thor wasp and others
assembled for a superhero team-up of
epic proportions we don’t have much time
then the Hulk was spotted in northern
Canada this morning Earth’s Mightiest
Heroes could have just been a cheap
cartoon tie-in for 2012’s live-action
Avengers movie but Marvel produced a
sophisticated series that was true to
its comic book roots skillfully animated
and action-packed in all the right ways
so naturally Disney cancelled it after
only two seasons go figure
stupid commercials
number nine Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
whoa
alien robots alien robots huh hmm where
have I heard that before oh yeah
you’d think with two long-running
cartoon shows already under their belt
the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
franchise would be officially exhausted
this is about self-improvement Raphael
it is not about winning and losing yet
the new Nickelodeon reboot has all the
best parts of previous incarnations to
fashion what may be the franchise’s most
impressive outing ever you are right the
showrunners have worked in a number of
their own inspired signatures –
including some beauty in the beasts
style romance ongoing parodies morals
that never feel forced brilliant twists
and unique animation
not to mention the catchiest rendition
of the classic theme song you’ll ever
hear eight Rick and Morty what’s going
on if you took the inventiveness of
Doctor Who the characters of Back to the
Future and the meta humor of community
you’d get Rick and Morty good although
the series is still young dan harmon and
justin roiland have created a universe
where the possibilities are limitless
both in terms of sci-fi and comedy the
belching Rick and neurotic Morty’s
adventures can take them anywhere from
foreign planets to inside dreams to the
multiverses countless different
realities why would mr. goldenfold’s
dream version of mrs. pancakes his dream
version of a centaur be dreaming about a
scary place like this Rick geez I don’t
know Morty what what do you want from me
wherever they go
we can’t wait to go along for another
ride I mean I’d watch it Morty for at
least 11 minutes a pop you know mitt
maybe they’ll do it bored driven number
seven Regular Show I’ll kill you any
slacker who’s ever held a boring job
will likely appreciate the off-the-wall
lunacy of Regular Show that can’t be
I don’t know it could be cool centered
on a bluejay named Mordecai and a
raccoon named Rigby Regular Show often
starts off with an everyday work-related
scenario you’re gonna have to excuse
Mordecai here he has a hard time trying
to espresso himself whether Mordecai and
Rigby are setting up chairs or making
hot dogs they somehow always end up on
wild misadventures involving mystical
settings and beings what is all this
junk guys but I kind of sent a bunch of
stuff to the moon while you guys were in
the house
funny and bizarre the series
demonstrates that excitement can be
found even at the most tedious of jobs
especially if you have a good friend by
your side
hey pajama sister what are you doing
watching TV all by yourself doesn’t
surprise me since you can’t talk to
chicks hey Ferb
have you seen bolt number 473 number 6
Phineas and Ferb whoa I think we may
have just stopped and/or started an
alien invasion growing up every kid
likely dreamed of spending their summer
vacations building rollercoasters in
their backyards and traveling around the
world we’re flying around the world to
make the longest funnest day of summer
ever oh no no no mom left me in charge
and I say you and your little friends
are not going any Candace check out this
giant map you’re going to Paris chances
are that you ended up staying inside
watching TV though Ferb I know what
we’re gonna do today
or I should say I know we’re gonna do 20
years from today Phineas and Ferb takes
all of our summer day dreams and turns
them into reality encouraging kids
everywhere to make the most of their
free time through the tool of
imagination sorry about your ship
what’s your name it does so with
appealing candy colors joyous music and
timeless characters oh and there’s also
a mad scientist and a secret agent
platypus which are both awesome
your covers been blowing
number five My Little Pony Friendship is
Magic I’ll do it in a jiffy just as soon
as I’m done practicing practicing for
what tomorrow and I’m gonna show um my
step you wouldn’t think that a My Little
Pony reboot would be anything more than
a way to cash in on another 80s cartoon
that one over there represents
friendship in a completely unpredictable
twist of fate however My Little Pony
Friendship is Magic has helped to break
down gender barriers I don’t want any of
that girly frilly frou-frou nonsense
although some view it as the
quintessential girly franchise
friendship is Magic has proven as
popular or even more so with
self-proclaimed bronies than the little
girls it’s marketed to keeps eNOS aside
the show’s crossover appeal isn’t all
that surprising considering its
individualist characters intricate story
and sincerity you see spike you should
never give up
there’s nothing number for Archer Lana
hey hey what does this smell like um
like the dysfunctional asshole I broke
up with six months ago while on the
surface
Archer might look like a comedy about
spies it’s actually a comedy about great
characters he’s even in zero gravity
you’re an asshole
you were saying – the wet towel wielding
survivor of 15 years of boarding school
locker rooms
wait 15 or whatever the normal number
animated or not Adam reads show has
evolved into one of TV’s finest awesomo
pieces of egomaniacs
Psychopaths sociopaths and hokey
monsters is he able to go lock up the
product before Cokie monster here
gobbled it all up and Ron take me to
lunch it’s 8:30 in the morning bar then
whatever it doesn’t even matter what the
setting or premises as long
any of these characters is involved the
dialogues bound to be exceptionally
crafted the callbacks will be some of
the sharpest since Arrested Development
and of course the voice actors will play
off each other perfectly now if you’ll
excuse me I need to number three gravity
falls but I was having a hard time
getting used to our new surroundings
oh let’s pretend this never made
WatchMojo top 10 hated Disney animated
shows list and appreciate gravity falls
for the revelation and creativity it is
I’ll show you how a real man fishes
earning comparisons to shows like lost
twin peaks’ and The Twilight Zone
creator Alex Hirsch has fashioned one of
the funniest and most addictive
paranormal shows of all time as well as
one of the best stories ever told
about a brother and sister awkward
sibling hug awkward sibling hug
pat pat with numerous jokes and
foreshadowing clues hidden in every
frame you’ll want to watch each gravity
falls episode multiple times to catch
them all well time to spill the beans
rope beans number two The Legend of
Korra
this fire
the world of Avatar The Last Airbender
was far too sensational to restrict to
three seasons of television only the
Avatar mastered all four elements
only he could stop the ruthless
firebenders
on par with the lure of franchises like
Star Wars and Harry Potter this universe
had to be expanded upon I don’t exactly
have a plan yet Missy I’m still in
training enter the legend of korra a
marvelous follow-up set 70 years after
the original series though it’s
considered by some to be not as tightly
written as avatar the legend of korra is
a more than worthy successor with adult
themes breathtaking animation fun new
characters clever callbacks and inspired
ideas what do you think we go to the
arena tonight catch a few Pro bending
matches that sport is a mockery of the
noble tradition of bending best of all M
night Shyamalan wasn’t involved at all
let this be a warning to all of you
benders out there if any of you stand in
my way
you will meet the same face before we
unveil our top pick here are some
honorable mentions this is my violations
notebook I just filled it it took 5
minutes in your kitchen that sounds bad
it’s a record why are you here to
protect your planet from the Decepticons
when we’re ready how are we ever
supposed to be ready when they treat us
like like sidekicks you know what time
it is buddy Adventure Time number 1
Adventure Time we’ve been watching you
guys on our magical viewing globe take a
seat guys have some juice after several
seasons on the air most shows eventually
settle into a predictable groove
with adventure time however people never
know what to expect whenever they tune
in yeah if I break a royal promise I get
to fight zombies throw slumber parties
awake gumball guardian’s and write all
right and reverse death itself oh you
are adorable
will we get a surreal episode a laugh
out loud funny episode an emotional
episode an epic episode or an episode
that changes everything we know about
the characters we’ve come to adore or
serum whatever Adventure Time aspires to
do it almost always hits a bull’s-eye
with its one-of-a-kind animation style

creativity transcending all the standard
storytelling conventions we’re used to
