This list is as worth about as much as any other fanboy list of the top 100 animated series ever. Nothing. I enjoy a lot of the shows on there, but even some of my favorites don't need to be as high as they are. Clerks, a series with only 6 episodes before it was canceled gets in the top 100? Yeah I liked the show, but don't be insulting. Aqua Teen Hunger Force is one of my top five shows to watch, but #39? Over shows like Thundercats, He-Man and Pokemon? Household names for a generation and in comparison ATHF is a niche toon. Whoever made this list is unable to separate his own opinion from the actual impact a lot of these cartoons had to the entire populace, and because of that, his list is crap.

Missed those.
Starblazers was more "available" anime back in the day. It was on in the mornings along with other cartoons. Those listed are either only in Adult Swim or have to buy the videos or watch on the 'Net. Thats where the bias comes in I think.

I don't see Sailor Moon on there either. Rubbish translation or not, it was just as much a gateway drug into anime as Dragon Ball Z back in the 90s.

Yeah, Sailor Moon and DBz might be garbage now, but they are what led so many people into the other anime.
So the importance of that alone should rank them in the Top Ten, if not Top twenty.

Robotech at 34 is a crime. Muppet Babies is higher? This seems like one person's list as opposed to something compiled. GI Joe shouldn't be above Transformers either - I love Joe, but TF was an awfully well done cartoon for the 80s.

see, here is the linchpin why a lot of these lists get flack...
people inject their personal likes and dislikes into the critiques, but fail to see the big picture... a lot of people think the Simpsons and Family guy suck... but a LOT MORE disagree with you. whether you like or dislike the Simpsons, being on the air after 20 years while maintaining a large audience can't be argued with.....Period. Family Guy was the first cartoon in HISTORY to get a cancellation reversed based off DVD sales and syndication rating numbers. To my knowledge, only Star trek had accomplished that beforehand. Love it or hate it... its currently airing on 5 DIFFERENT NETWORKS. and all of them are getting ratings. I personally didn't like Beavis & Butthead, and...actually Most Mike Judge cartoons. but I couldn't deny the pop culture popularity of Bevis & Butthead in the 90's, and King of the Hill Now...

I didn't see Star Blazers on the list. My personal top 3 are Star Blazers, Last Airbender and Justice League.
