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 1 - Power Save Mode (Spoilers)

Mr. Robot Season 3 starts off a solid premier, by moving at a faster pace, delivering a thrillingly strong straight forward story, ending it with a shocking twist, making the rest of the season look very promising. The season starts off with a strange mysterious charcter, who is possibly an FBI diplomat (Bobby Canavale) ordering a milkshake. He then gets a call, hearing that Elliot was shocked. I really like the addition of Bobby Canavale in the new cast, as he portrays the mysterious character really well. Elliot wakes up in Angela's apartment six days after a gun shot wound, from Tyrell Wellick. Elliot realises that Mr. Robot is gone, so he decides to end Stage 2 by shutting down the backdoor, with the help of his sister Darlene. Elliot succeeds in this but is approach by this mysterious new character, a possible FBI diplomat  who tells them that Stage 2 is off. Of course Elliot and Darlene don't believe this. Wanting to fix what he did wrong, Elliot decides to work...

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 ...
