8 Overlooked Cartoon Network Shows


Whenever we talk about Cartoon Network Shows, often that is mentioned are Steven Universe, Adventure Time, Regular Show or beloved Childhood Classics such as Ed, Edd N Eddy, Dexter's Laboratory, Powerpuff Girls, etc. Here is a list of underrated Cartoon Network Shows.

Class of 3000

This show was great. I remember playing the Class of 3000 Funkbox game on the Cartoon Network website. This show ran from 2006 - 2008 but unfortunately it was cancelled due to a lawsuit filed by Timothy McGee on alleged copyright claims against Andre 3000. Well at least we have the Funkbox game, if that, still exist. 

Mike, Lu and Og


This show is so sadly forgotten. A lot people found this cartoon boring, but not me, I actually loved it! But of course, the last time I saw this show, I was six, yet I remember some episodes like the jujubombs, rollerskates and baseball. Tell me again why people thought this show was boring?

Time Squad



I'ts go time! I absolutely LOVED this show as kid and still do. One of my favourite Cartoon Network shows ever. I pretty much learnt most of my history from this show. Funny I should say that, because creator Dave Wasson, described it as a "C Students guide to history".

Whatever Happened to Robot Jones?



Talk about underrated, whatever happened to this show? Well here's what happened, apparently Creator Greg Miller didn't like the network changing his show, so he left after the second season, therefore the show being cancelled. I remember playing the game on the Cartoon Network website, where Robot Jones had to try and get his brain back from those Yogman guys.

Camp Lazlo


Not the best CN show, but my nostalgia says otherwise. It was enjoyable and fun to watch, least for me when I was a kid. From my memory this show did have some really great episodes, with one of them being nominated for an Emmy.

Sheep in the Big City


This show was so underrated, it's such a forgotten gem indeed. This show was everything, it was clever, funny, original, had a unique style to it, that's why it's so brilliant, but at the same time is the reason why it's often overlooked.

Megas XLR



This was one of the best cartoons ever made, but sadly was cancelled due to low ratings. Despite this, many fans have petitioned for the show's revival (I'll be signing those). Even a twitter hashtag back in 2012, #BringBackMegasXLR. Let's just hope this show comes back one day, in the meantime, time to binge on all 26 episodes again on YouTube, if there still there that is.

Teen Titans



This show needs to be brought back, and replace it with that god awful Teen Titans Go (how is that not even cancelled?) This show lasted a for five seasons, which was pretty good, but yet it's still often overlooked and underrated. This show also had a TV movie, Trouble in Tokyo.

Mr. Robot Season 3 Episode 3 - Legacy (Spoilers)

Season 3 so far has been outstanding. With three episodes in, this Tyrell centric, all flashback episode that finally giving us answers to what happened on the night of the hack and what happened to Tyrell, as well as providing a backstory for the new character, Irving. Honestly this show really confuses the hell out of me sometimes, but that's what the show is supposed to do. Which is actually one of the reasons why I like this show. It's so different compared to other shows that I've watched. That being said, I was left pretty confused after the season one finale and wondered what happened on the Night of the hack and Tyrell. I assumed dead, until towards the end of the second season, but like Elliot, was wondering if he was real. I feel like I can understand Tyrell now, after going through such great character development. It reminded me a bit of Jaime Lannister's journey back to King's Landing with Brienne of Tarth. What I think is funny is that ...

Narcos Season 3 - Entertaining, Engaging and Addictive just as the first two seasons

Even without Wagner Moura's portrayal of Paolo Escobar, season three of Narcos is still just as entertaining, engaging and addictive as the first two seasons, that unfolds the Cali Cartel and The Godfathers' reign in Columbia during the 1990s. Season Three started off slow. The first three episodes were slow, but episode four was when the plot thickens. Gilberto's arrest, being a game changing moment for the Cali Cartel as Miguel Rodriguez and his Joffrey Baratheon/Ramsay Bolton like son, David started killing off men that failed them along with their families. This was the definitive moment for Jorge, to make the risky decision to secretly work with the DEA to save his family, keeping us on the edge of our seats. While the complexity of Pena is still being in play, as he often reminds everyone that he is no hero, referring back to what he did in last season, where he went to Los Pepes to aide them in capturing Escobar and the Median Cartel. This time, Pena is car...
