Added DiffLines:
* ''WesternAnimation/JohnnyBravo'' is ''huge'' in India -- to the point of his name being a slang term for anything considered cool, hip, and/or trendy. Cartoon Network Asia took notice and produced a TV movie called ''Johnny Bravo Goes Bollywood'' exclusively for India.
** The show is also very popular in Latin America, almost as much as India.
* In the United Kingdom, ''WesternAnimation/JungleJunction'' is more popular with its target audience than it is in the United States, to the point where Disney Junior still airs it in that country.
* ''WesternAnimation/KaBlam'':
** It was rather popular in Nick's Japan branch, premiering in 1998 (dubbed in Japanese) when Nick Japan was launched, and ''finally getting cancelled'' around 2007-2008, a year or so before Nick Japan closed shop. (The show was put in reruns by then)
** It's also very popular in Latin American markets as well.
** And it's pretty popular over in the Netherlands. Similar to most anime, the dubbed version of the show which was syndicated (Nickelodeon wasn't available over there yet) was disliked by some fans who have heard the original English voices (almost all the characters (June mostly) sound completely different in the Dutch dub), so when the show was brought over to Nicktoons (in their branch), it was subtitled in Dutch with the English audio.
** ''WesternAnimation/ActionLeagueNow'' is the most popular short in the US. ''Life With Loopy'' is the most popular short in Russia.
* Canadian cartoon ''WesternAnimation/KatieAndOrbie'' was the third-most popular program on Nick Jr. in the UK, only beaten by ''WesternAnimation/BluesClues'' and ''WesternAnimation/MagicAdventuresOfMumfie''. It helped that it touched subjects no other preschool show would dare touch[[note]] (''WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}}'' also did this, but was aimed at elementary school children, not toddlers, and did it much later than ''Katie and Orbie'')[[/note]], such as children with special needs and divorce. However, after being eventually canceled, the series returned to obscurity in the UK, and is nowadays better remembered in its native Canada, where reruns still aired for a decade after it ended production, and the United States, where it was part of the early years of Playhouse Disney.
* The low-budget Canadian cartoon ''WesternAnimation/KevinSpencer'' is surprisingly popular in Spain. Besides being the only foreign country that ever aired the show, the show used to air on the local free-to-air channel Cuatro, a network that used to air a lot of cartoons during its early years.
* ''WesternAnimation/KiddVideo'' proved to be really popular in Israel; getting a whole line of merchandise that wasn't released in America; including a soundtrack album of the show's music that never was available to Americans until it was put up in [=MP3=] format on The Flipside, a ''Kidd Video'' fan site. The cast also toured Israel a few times. It helps that one of the show's creators, Haim Saban, is Israeli.
* ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible'' is huge in Germany. Fans (and networks) on that side of the globe staged a hissy fit that persuaded Disney to renew the series, making it the first Disney cartoon since ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales1987'' to break the [[SixtyFiveEpisodeCartoon 65-Episode Curse]].
* ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'' has a small cult following in the United Kingdom, where it was one of the flagship shows of Channel 4 during the 90's and has gained a new generation of fans thanks to late night reruns on sister channel 4Music.
* In Poland, ''WesternAnimation/LifeWithLouie'' is so fondly remembered (probably thanks to the stellar dubbing), that pretty much everyone who was a kid in the 2000s and had cable TV at the time can do an impression of Andy Anderson saying "When I fought in the war...". And if you ask them a question they don't wanna answer, chances are they'll respond with "One rabbi would say yes, and the other would say no", a quote from an episode where Louie asks religious authorities about what happens after death.
* In the United States, ''WesternAnimation/TheLionGuard'' had a small fandom comprised of fans of [[WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994 the movie the show is based on]], but was not liked by the target demographic because it was DarkerAndEdgier than most Disney Junior shows, making it one of the factors leading to a ratings downfall for the channel. But in the United Kingdom, it's one of the channel's most popular shows, and is so big that parents reported that their kids began using American pronunciations for animal names after watching episodes of the show.
* ''WesternAnimation/LittlestPetShop1995'' was huge in Quebec, Canada, where it was broadcast as ''Les Rock'Amis''.
* Tweety of WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes is pretty popular in Japan. He even has a few volumes of [=DVDs=] titled "I Love Tweety" sold there. Japan's fondness for small, adorable creatures probably helped him out a lot.
** Back in the 1970s, Tweety had an immense fandom in France with comic books, toys, and various other merchandise and memorabilia.
** Marvin the Martian also seems to be moderately popular in Japan; there's a good amount of Japanese fanart of him, and many Japanese fans, when making posts regarding him, will often mention how they think he's cute.
** While the Looney Tunes have not been as popular as they were in the United States for two decades, the franchise is still popular amongst kids in the Middle East, since the shorts still air there.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'' is big in Asia and Canada. The networks that air the show in those countries tend to air it more than ''[=SpongeBob=]'' and they even have their own exclusive online games for the show!
** ''The Loud House'' also has a huge fanbase in South Korea. It helps that the dubbing for the show is pretty close to the original unlike most foreign dubs of Western cartoons and has well-known Korean voice artists doing the voices. Even fans in the Philippines love the show, as it lead into a Filipina named Stella being included to the show.
* ''WesternAnimation/MagicAdventuresOfMumfie''
** Britt Allcroft's other major production is very popular in Norway. There are many Norwegian pages about the show on the internet. The Ladybird books from the UK even got translated there. It was also the first country to get the show on DVD.
** While the most-popular episode in the United States is "Scarecrow's Birthday Surprise" and the most popular in the UK is the entire Mumfie's Quest arc, the most popular episode in Norway is "An Age-Old Problem". Also in that country, Pinkey is the most popular character other than Mumfie, when Scarecrow's usually the most popular.
** Mumfie's also more popular in the US than the UK. They got the entire Mumfie's Quest arc and series first on VHS and Hulu, respectively, and the [[ChristmasEpisode White Christmas special]] was the highest-rated program in its timeslot.
** It too was popular in Japan - the first video of the series was the third-top selling anime video when it came out, and its soundtrack was the fifth-top selling anime CD of the week in Japan. Despite this, the episodes after Mumfie's Quest weren't dubbed.[[note]] By the time the 1998 episodes rolled around, Forte Music had gone bankrupt and dissolved as part of its parent company Nippon Columbia. It doesn't help that [[Creator/KeiTomiyama Scarecrow's Japanese voice actor]] had died of pancreatic cancer 3 years before, making Scarecrow his last role.[[/note]]
** According to Britt Allcroft, the show was very popular in Germany as well, gaining high ratings in its timeslot and lots of praise. They also released a CD and the first 15 episodes on VHS.
** There are also many Spanish fans of the show. The Facebook page was flooded by so many of them, that they did a comic series telling the story of Mumfie's Quest just for them (alongside an English version).
** It was also popular in Greece, since a lot of "Children's TV Favorites" [=CDs=] use the theme song as a track (even including an instrumental version of the song). A recurring joke there is that Mumfie is said to be the story of Benjamin Blumchen's childhood. [[note]] Benjamin Blumchen and Mumfie were both popular there and ran back to back sometimes.[[/note]]
** It is also popular in Sweden and could be considered their equivalent of ''Film/TheWizardOfOz'' since it airs around Christmas each year, just as Oz typically airs in the U.S. each Thanksgiving. It's also worth noting that the plots of the two films share vague similarities to each other.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheMagicRoundabout'' is the hugely popular British localisation of a French StopMotion show called ''Le Manège Enchanté''. The French show is now largely forgotten in its native land. It should be noted that the popularity of ''The Magic Roundabout'' was largely due to the quality of its extreme CutAndPasteTranslation, which was written and narrated by Eric Thompson based purely on the visuals with no reference to the French script.
* According to some British [=YouTubers=], ''WesternAnimation/{{MASK}}'' was very popular in the United Kingdom in the 1980s, with exclusive merchandise including a set of [=UK=]-exclusive home computer games.
* While ''WesternAnimation/MegaBabies'' was universally hated by viewers in its native Canada as well as the United States (it doesn't help that at least on [[Creator/ABCFamily its US network]], it sometimes ran alongside ''WesternAnimation/AngelaAnaconda'', another widely-hated show), the show had a small following of children in the United Kingdom. Why? It was the show that ran before ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'' on Sky One at the height of its popularity.
* ''WesternAnimation/MickeyMouseClubhouse'' is very popular in Spanish-speaking countries, due to there being lots of merchandise for the show.
* ''Miffy'' appears to be popular in Japan, even getting its own magazine.
* ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'' is perhaps the most popular French animated series in the English-speaking world. Its huge fandom, which overlaps with the anime/manga fandom, [[note]]thus double-dipping into this trope[[/note]] is very active on social media and produces copious amounts of fanart and cosplay.
** While it’s huge in France and the United States, it’s practically iconic in Turkey, and the Middle East in general, most notably Israel and Saudi Arabia.
* ''WesternAnimation/MyLifeAsATeenageRobot'':
** {{Doujinshi}} of Jenny from ''WesternAnimation/MyLifeAsATeenageRobot'' is common in Japan, which isn't really surprising considering it's like their beloved ''Manga/AstroBoy'' and she's a BadassAdorable and a {{Moe}} of a RobotGirl. Even better, her voice actress is Japanese.
** The show is also very popular in Latin America, if the fanbase and ''many'' Spanish videos are any indication, to the point that in a contest (when the show still aired), ''[[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu they beat]]'' ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' in a popularity contest.
* One of the animators for the infamous Canadian animated series ''WesternAnimation/MyLifeMe'' [[https://twitter.com/AnimatedWoman/status/719560883119071232 stated on Twitter]] that the show became popular in Malaysia and Mexico, and also was broadcasted in its entirety in France.
** It also appears to have been popular in New Zealand.
* Any imported show aired on Creator/NickJr will become popular no matter what, due to how popular the block and network both are among the target audience. Besides ''PAW Patrol'', other foreign shows that were made popular in the USA by Nick Jr include ''WesternAnimation/PeppaPig'', ''WesternAnimation/TheBackyardigans'', ''WesternAnimation/MaxAndRuby'', ''WesternAnimation/BobTheBuilder'', ''WesternAnimation/{{Franklin}}'' and ''WesternAnimation/LittleBear''.
* While widely-hated in North America and its native United Kingdom, ''WesternAnimation/NinaNeedsToGo'' is the second most popular Disney Junior short in India, only beaten by Tasty Time with [=ZeFronk=].
** It also got a more favorable reception when Japan's Creator/TVTokyo aired it as part of ''Disney Sunday'', with many people thinking the voice actors chosen fit their roles and that Nina's adventures were fun. There have also been many parents there who say that the show convinced their kids to try and use the bathroom, which was the complete opposite of what happened in the US and UK where kids actually copied Nina waiting until the last minute to use the bathroom.
* ''WesternAnimation/NoddysToylandAdventures'' is ''huge'' in France, where he is known as [[DubNameChange Oui-Oui]]. The country got a lot of merchandise and the various incarnations of the show air multiple times a day. They even gained two musical live shows based on ''Noddy In Toyland'' exclusively shown in France with the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcnzQXgo7k4 first being "Oui-Oui et le cadeau Suprise"]] ("Noddy And The Surprise Gift") from 2009 ([[MilestoneCelebration to celebrate the character's 60th Anniversary]]) complete [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xlCvVgilfk&list=OLAK5uy_mSlvaR-bnhtq3JNbW2o92Mf4iD5K-Jfhk&index=1 with it's own album]] and a DVD release. The first show ran in France until early 2011 to make way for a second live show called [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-jeIgdvCqk "Oui-Oui Et Le Grand Carnaval"]] ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_bnt_Dfxpc "Noddy And The Big Carnaval"]]) which ran from 2012 till 2013. Like the first show, [[https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61M-h2DSJtL.jpg it also gained a French album]] and DVD release. The most recent incarnation of the show, ''Noddy: Toyland Detective'', was actually co-produced in France and [[ShortRunInPeru aired there before other parts of the world]] due to Noddy's massive popularity there. Noddy is so big there that it has beaten home-grown productions like ''Literature/{{Babar}}'' and ''ComicBook/{{Asterix}}'' in polls with parent and toddler participants in France. The original books by ''Creator/EnidBlyton'' sell about 600,000 copies annually in that country.
** ''Make Way For Noddy'' was huge in Portugal. The theme tune became a popular children's song, the main character's outfit was a popular choice for a carnival costume, and older incarnations like ''Noddy's Toyland Adventures'' and ''Series/TheNoddyShop'' were rebroadcast in response to the popularity ''Make Way For Noddy'' had.
** ''Noddy'' is also popular in India, due to the various incarnations of the franchise being a staple of Pogo's line-up.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheOctonauts'' is a British cartoon made for Creator/{{CBeebies}}, but it's absolutely huge in North America. It helps that the show aired on Disney Junior in the US.
** The show is also pretty popular in China, so much that Season 5 showcases numerous sea creatures commonly found in China. There's even an Octonauts area at a popular theme park in Shanghai.
* ''WesternAnimation/OggyAndTheCockroaches'' is so popular in India that not only was it referenced in one of the show's episodes ("From Mumbai, with Love"), but the show serves as a major inspiration for the Indian cartoon ''Animation/PakdamPakdai''.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Oswald}}'' was also popular in India to the point where not only the people adored it, [[AdoredByTheNetwork but also]] [[Creator/CartoonNetwork one of the channels it aired on]][[note]](yes, Cartoon Network in India used to show pre-school shows, possibly due to being the first children's channel in the country)[[/note]].
* ''WesternAnimation/OvideAndTheGang'':
** ''Ovide'' is considered somewhat of a cult classic in the Netherlands. May have something to do with the thoroughly [[{{Woolseyism}} Woolseyed]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-ayGu0PYJA theme song]].
** They even made a feature length movie in Mexico. Extra effort was put into making the voice acting as similar to the original dubbing as possible (which is part of what made it so successful in the first place).
* ''WesternAnimation/PAWPatrol'', originally made in Canada for TV Ontario, became the biggest preschool phenomenon in the United States in years. It's currently the flagship program of Creator/NickJr and there's merchandise in just about any store in the United States. It also has three live shows to its' name created by American company [=VeeStar=], who was known for producing ''[[Series/SesameStreet Sesame Street Live]]''.
** It is also big in the UK to the point where [[https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2015/dec/05/paw-patrol-no-job-too-big-parents-christmas-must-have-toy the toys sold out during Christmas 2015]], which never happened in North America. The United Kingdom also got two theatrical {{Compilation Movie}}s of the show and also released ''Mighty Pups'' in theaters, which was so popular that encore screenings were shown two months after the inital release. [[note]] Unless it's something like an annual holiday re-release of a movie, like ''Film/TheMuppetChristmasCarol'', event cinema releases do not usually get played for more than one or two weeks in the United Kingdom.[[/note]]
** The show is also big in Latin America. It is impossible to go any place in the country and not see something related to the show there. It also airs not just on Nickelodeon, but on four local channels as well.
** It's also popular with Chinese and Japanese families living both domestically and overseas, with said families using the show as a tool to teach kids English. It's extremely notable in the case of the later, since its' popularity began '''even before an official Japanese dub was produced'''.
*** However, when the dub came to Japan, it didn't gain the instant popularity it did in America until partway through its' run, when rival series ''Anime/ShinkansenHenkeiRoboShinkalion'' was [[ScrewedByTheNetwork abrutply cancelled]] for a block of programming about the Olympic Games. The increasing ratings as it went on caused TV Tokyo to make an unnamed Sunday morning preschool block featuring ''PAW Patrol'' and the ''Disney Sunday'' slot which features Disney Junior shows. It's so popular there that the ''Ready, Race, Rescue!'' movie [[https://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2020/11/16-1/japan-box-office-demon-slayer-movie-stays-at-no1-for-5th-week cracked the top 10 at the box office in Japan]] despite only showing at one theater chain in the country (AEON). And in a rare move for an animated movie, ''PAW Patrol: The Movie'' is being released in Japan on the same day as it's being released in the United States.
** On a related note, while Chase is the most popular character in Canada, Marshall is the most popular among American audiences, with Skye and Rubble tied for second place. This has lead to most American merchandise featuring Marshall in a prominent role, and his popularity may have resulted in the creation of a firetruck playset for ''Ultimate Rescue''.
*** In Japan, Zuma seems to be the most popular, with Rocky a close second. Zuma is also pretty popular in Latin America too.
** It's extremely popular in Poland. Many of the Polish-language videos of ''PAW Patrol'' have over a million views, and they were the only non English-speaking country to get the ''Mighty Pups'' movie in theaters.
* In the United States, ''[[ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}} It's Christmastime Again, Charlie Brown]]'' was only shown once and was quickly forgotten. In Canada, however, Creator/{{YTV}} airs the special every year around the holidays, and it's considered one of the channel's holiday traditions, alongside airings of DirectToVideo Christmas specials.
** Another holiday special that airs often on YTV, despite the series not airing on the channel anymore, is the ''WesternAnimation/{{Rugrats}}'' special "The Turkey Who Came To Dinner".
* ''WesternAnimation/ThePenguinsOfMadagascar'' was one of Nick's highest-rated shows, but didn't make as big as an impact as ''[=SpongeBob=]'' or ''Series/{{iCarly}}'' did at the time. But in Japan and the Benelux, it's one of the most well-known Nickelodeon shows of all time, with Japan re-running the show to this day not only on their Nickelodeon feed, but also on Creator/DisneyXD.
* ''WesternAnimation/PeppaPig'''s popularity in Italy boomed up in 2012 and keeps creeping around the nation. It’s also the notable creator of the Peppa Pig WebAnimation/YouTubePoop.
** It also is very popular in America, and is Creator/NickJr's current [[AdoredByTheNetwork network darling]] after [[ChannelHop picking it up from]] Creator/CartoonNetwork, who had [[ScrewedByTheNetwork screwed it over]]. There have even been [[https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/tv/american-children-picking-up-british-15844100.amp reports of American children picking up British accents after watching the show]]!
** Probably the peak of its popularity comes from the Spanish-speaking world, to the point where on Website/YouTube, the six most popular Peppa Pig-related videos are all in Spanish. Even one Peppa Pig-related cosplay video in Spanish has more views than its home country of the UK has people!
** It's also big in Canada, where it stole the crown from Dora (see below) as Treehouse TV's flagship imported show. The merchandise sells extremely well there and they even got some of the UK live shows before they came to the United States, with some editions even touring twice in Canada!
** It also big in China, it even comes to the [[UnacceptableTargets terms of being untouchable,]] (though it has slightly more leeway with its parodies) as proven by Chinese video streaming website Billibilli's "[[http://member.bilibili.com/studio/creative-treaty/q0 Creative Treaty]]" that includes the rule that forbids mature videos that can [[MisaimedFandom attract young kids and peoples,]] it even [[https://imgur.com/6Ym6NOP includes]] the creepypasta version of Peppa Pig character as an example!
* ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'' has a massive Japanese fandom. If you go to the "overseas cartoon" section on 2ch, there will almost always be a thread for Phineas and Ferb near the top.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Pingu}}'' is very popular in Japan. They even got three exclusive DS games courtesy of Square Enix, its own line of toys produced by Bandai and even toys in KFC kids' meals.
** It's getting an new anime series called ''Pingu in the City'' which is produced in that country.
* The classic ''WesternAnimation/ThePinkPanther'' theatrical shorts had a huge cross-cultural appeal, thanks to their emphasis on physical humor and almost complete lack of dialogue.
* In France, ''WesternAnimation/PinkyAndTheBrain'' (known there as ''Minus et Cortex'') was (and is still) way more popular than ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'' and ''WesternAnimation/TinyToons'' will ever be. This is partially due to the fact that those other two shows based a lot of their jokes on pop culture references that passed over the heads of most of the audience, and untranslatable {{pun}}s.
* ''WesternAnimation/PJMasks'' is based on a French book series and was originally made for France 5 by a British
company [[note]] Entertainment One's UK branch, who also made ''Peppa Pig''[[/note]], but it's absolutely huge in the United States, to the point where its airings on Disney Junior get higher ratings and sell more merchandise than the channel's in-house productions save for the evergreen ''WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse''. In 2018, [[https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2018-10-29/paw-patrol-and-the-twilight-of-the-world-conquering-kids-tv-show the franchise sold more merchandise in the United States]] than ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}}'' or ''Franchise/DisneyPrincess'' did.
* ''Plonsters'' has its largest fanbase in Norway, where it's known as "Plipp, Plopp og Plomma".
* While ''[[WesternAnimation/PotsworthAndCompany Midnight Patrol: Adventures in the Dream Zone]]'' was cancelled after only one season, in the UK it stayed on TV for several years through repeats with only 13 episodes. It also got a UK-exclusive computer game and comic.
* ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls'' was also popular in Japan. So much so, in fact, that they made [[Anime/PowerpuffGirlsZ their own version of the series]]. It's even had merchandise released into TheNewTens.
* ''WesternAnimation/PrincessSissi'' is '''huge''' in Italy and has a ton of merchandise. Heck, according to eBay, Princess Sissi is more popular than [[WesternAnimation/Frozen2013 Anna and Elsa]]!
* ''WesternAnimation/TheRaccoons'' was huge in Ireland, Russia and Germany, as well as the UK, where it managed to pull in around '''7 million viewers per episode'''. For comparison, that's about '''12%''' of the UK's late 1980s population.
* ''WesternAnimation/RandyCunninghamNinthGradeNinja'' is more popular in Malaysia than in the U.S.
* ''WesternAnimation/ReadyJetGo'': The show is quite popular in Latin America. By the time Nat Geo Kids launched in Latin America, the show had garnered a huge fandom over there, along with shows like ''Jamie's Got Tentacles'' and ''Chuck's Choice''.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Recess}}'' was one of the most popular Disney shows in Germany. The show is very popular in Canada, to the point where it still airs on Family, [[{{Expy}} the Expy of]] [[Creator/DisneyChannel Disney Channel]]. The show is pretty popular in the U.K. too, and Japan. Butch, Hustler Kid, and Lawson are extremely popular over there, and T.J. is considered as the show's {{Moe}} symbol.
** Related to the Germany scenario, the entire series is on that country's iTunes even though this is a US series.
* While ''WesternAnimation/RenAndStimpyAdultPartyCartoon'' left [[FanonDiscontinuity a sour taste]] in both the U.S. and most parts of the world, the ShortRunner does have some strong fanbases in Eastern Europe (mostly in Poland).
* ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty'' has gained a steadily-growing fanbase in the United Kingdom, with many praising it for its twisted humour, creepy yet quirky character designs and has been described as "''Series/DoctorWho'' on acid".
** Word has it it's also somewhat popular in Japan as well, thanks to Morty's moe-like personality. The show also [[https://soranews24.com/2017/10/11/japan-desperately-trying-to-figure-out-americas-sudden-obsession-with-schezuan-sauce appeared on an episode]] of ''Toku Da Ne''.
* The French-British animated series WesternAnimation/{{Robotboy}} has a small but impressive cult following in Japan, considering its [[{{Moe}} cute]] titular Robot character.
** It still aired until around 2017 to 2018 in The United Kingdom, and still does in Eastern Europe, and Germany, it also has a surprisingly high number of fans in North America and Asia.
* ''WesternAnimation/RubyGloom'' is very popular in Japan for its PerkyGoth aesthetic.
----
** The show is also very popular in Latin America, almost as much as India.
* In the United Kingdom, ''WesternAnimation/JungleJunction'' is more popular with its target audience than it is in the United States, to the point where Disney Junior still airs it in that country.
* ''WesternAnimation/KaBlam'':
** It was rather popular in Nick's Japan branch, premiering in 1998 (dubbed in Japanese) when Nick Japan was launched, and ''finally getting cancelled'' around 2007-2008, a year or so before Nick Japan closed shop. (The show was put in reruns by then)
** It's also very popular in Latin American markets as well.
** And it's pretty popular over in the Netherlands. Similar to most anime, the dubbed version of the show which was syndicated (Nickelodeon wasn't available over there yet) was disliked by some fans who have heard the original English voices (almost all the characters (June mostly) sound completely different in the Dutch dub), so when the show was brought over to Nicktoons (in their branch), it was subtitled in Dutch with the English audio.
** ''WesternAnimation/ActionLeagueNow'' is the most popular short in the US. ''Life With Loopy'' is the most popular short in Russia.
* Canadian cartoon ''WesternAnimation/KatieAndOrbie'' was the third-most popular program on Nick Jr. in the UK, only beaten by ''WesternAnimation/BluesClues'' and ''WesternAnimation/MagicAdventuresOfMumfie''. It helped that it touched subjects no other preschool show would dare touch[[note]] (''WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}}'' also did this, but was aimed at elementary school children, not toddlers, and did it much later than ''Katie and Orbie'')[[/note]], such as children with special needs and divorce. However, after being eventually canceled, the series returned to obscurity in the UK, and is nowadays better remembered in its native Canada, where reruns still aired for a decade after it ended production, and the United States, where it was part of the early years of Playhouse Disney.
* The low-budget Canadian cartoon ''WesternAnimation/KevinSpencer'' is surprisingly popular in Spain. Besides being the only foreign country that ever aired the show, the show used to air on the local free-to-air channel Cuatro, a network that used to air a lot of cartoons during its early years.
* ''WesternAnimation/KiddVideo'' proved to be really popular in Israel; getting a whole line of merchandise that wasn't released in America; including a soundtrack album of the show's music that never was available to Americans until it was put up in [=MP3=] format on The Flipside, a ''Kidd Video'' fan site. The cast also toured Israel a few times. It helps that one of the show's creators, Haim Saban, is Israeli.
* ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible'' is huge in Germany. Fans (and networks) on that side of the globe staged a hissy fit that persuaded Disney to renew the series, making it the first Disney cartoon since ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales1987'' to break the [[SixtyFiveEpisodeCartoon 65-Episode Curse]].
* ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'' has a small cult following in the United Kingdom, where it was one of the flagship shows of Channel 4 during the 90's and has gained a new generation of fans thanks to late night reruns on sister channel 4Music.
* In Poland, ''WesternAnimation/LifeWithLouie'' is so fondly remembered (probably thanks to the stellar dubbing), that pretty much everyone who was a kid in the 2000s and had cable TV at the time can do an impression of Andy Anderson saying "When I fought in the war...". And if you ask them a question they don't wanna answer, chances are they'll respond with "One rabbi would say yes, and the other would say no", a quote from an episode where Louie asks religious authorities about what happens after death.
* In the United States, ''WesternAnimation/TheLionGuard'' had a small fandom comprised of fans of [[WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994 the movie the show is based on]], but was not liked by the target demographic because it was DarkerAndEdgier than most Disney Junior shows, making it one of the factors leading to a ratings downfall for the channel. But in the United Kingdom, it's one of the channel's most popular shows, and is so big that parents reported that their kids began using American pronunciations for animal names after watching episodes of the show.
* ''WesternAnimation/LittlestPetShop1995'' was huge in Quebec, Canada, where it was broadcast as ''Les Rock'Amis''.
* Tweety of WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes is pretty popular in Japan. He even has a few volumes of [=DVDs=] titled "I Love Tweety" sold there. Japan's fondness for small, adorable creatures probably helped him out a lot.
** Back in the 1970s, Tweety had an immense fandom in France with comic books, toys, and various other merchandise and memorabilia.
** Marvin the Martian also seems to be moderately popular in Japan; there's a good amount of Japanese fanart of him, and many Japanese fans, when making posts regarding him, will often mention how they think he's cute.
** While the Looney Tunes have not been as popular as they were in the United States for two decades, the franchise is still popular amongst kids in the Middle East, since the shorts still air there.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'' is big in Asia and Canada. The networks that air the show in those countries tend to air it more than ''[=SpongeBob=]'' and they even have their own exclusive online games for the show!
** ''The Loud House'' also has a huge fanbase in South Korea. It helps that the dubbing for the show is pretty close to the original unlike most foreign dubs of Western cartoons and has well-known Korean voice artists doing the voices. Even fans in the Philippines love the show, as it lead into a Filipina named Stella being included to the show.
* ''WesternAnimation/MagicAdventuresOfMumfie''
** Britt Allcroft's other major production is very popular in Norway. There are many Norwegian pages about the show on the internet. The Ladybird books from the UK even got translated there. It was also the first country to get the show on DVD.
** While the most-popular episode in the United States is "Scarecrow's Birthday Surprise" and the most popular in the UK is the entire Mumfie's Quest arc, the most popular episode in Norway is "An Age-Old Problem". Also in that country, Pinkey is the most popular character other than Mumfie, when Scarecrow's usually the most popular.
** Mumfie's also more popular in the US than the UK. They got the entire Mumfie's Quest arc and series first on VHS and Hulu, respectively, and the [[ChristmasEpisode White Christmas special]] was the highest-rated program in its timeslot.
** It too was popular in Japan - the first video of the series was the third-top selling anime video when it came out, and its soundtrack was the fifth-top selling anime CD of the week in Japan. Despite this, the episodes after Mumfie's Quest weren't dubbed.[[note]] By the time the 1998 episodes rolled around, Forte Music had gone bankrupt and dissolved as part of its parent company Nippon Columbia. It doesn't help that [[Creator/KeiTomiyama Scarecrow's Japanese voice actor]] had died of pancreatic cancer 3 years before, making Scarecrow his last role.[[/note]]
** According to Britt Allcroft, the show was very popular in Germany as well, gaining high ratings in its timeslot and lots of praise. They also released a CD and the first 15 episodes on VHS.
** There are also many Spanish fans of the show. The Facebook page was flooded by so many of them, that they did a comic series telling the story of Mumfie's Quest just for them (alongside an English version).
** It was also popular in Greece, since a lot of "Children's TV Favorites" [=CDs=] use the theme song as a track (even including an instrumental version of the song). A recurring joke there is that Mumfie is said to be the story of Benjamin Blumchen's childhood. [[note]] Benjamin Blumchen and Mumfie were both popular there and ran back to back sometimes.[[/note]]
** It is also popular in Sweden and could be considered their equivalent of ''Film/TheWizardOfOz'' since it airs around Christmas each year, just as Oz typically airs in the U.S. each Thanksgiving. It's also worth noting that the plots of the two films share vague similarities to each other.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheMagicRoundabout'' is the hugely popular British localisation of a French StopMotion show called ''Le Manège Enchanté''. The French show is now largely forgotten in its native land. It should be noted that the popularity of ''The Magic Roundabout'' was largely due to the quality of its extreme CutAndPasteTranslation, which was written and narrated by Eric Thompson based purely on the visuals with no reference to the French script.
* According to some British [=YouTubers=], ''WesternAnimation/{{MASK}}'' was very popular in the United Kingdom in the 1980s, with exclusive merchandise including a set of [=UK=]-exclusive home computer games.
* While ''WesternAnimation/MegaBabies'' was universally hated by viewers in its native Canada as well as the United States (it doesn't help that at least on [[Creator/ABCFamily its US network]], it sometimes ran alongside ''WesternAnimation/AngelaAnaconda'', another widely-hated show), the show had a small following of children in the United Kingdom. Why? It was the show that ran before ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'' on Sky One at the height of its popularity.
* ''WesternAnimation/MickeyMouseClubhouse'' is very popular in Spanish-speaking countries, due to there being lots of merchandise for the show.
* ''Miffy'' appears to be popular in Japan, even getting its own magazine.
* ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'' is perhaps the most popular French animated series in the English-speaking world. Its huge fandom, which overlaps with the anime/manga fandom, [[note]]thus double-dipping into this trope[[/note]] is very active on social media and produces copious amounts of fanart and cosplay.
** While it’s huge in France and the United States, it’s practically iconic in Turkey, and the Middle East in general, most notably Israel and Saudi Arabia.
* ''WesternAnimation/MyLifeAsATeenageRobot'':
** {{Doujinshi}} of Jenny from ''WesternAnimation/MyLifeAsATeenageRobot'' is common in Japan, which isn't really surprising considering it's like their beloved ''Manga/AstroBoy'' and she's a BadassAdorable and a {{Moe}} of a RobotGirl. Even better, her voice actress is Japanese.
** The show is also very popular in Latin America, if the fanbase and ''many'' Spanish videos are any indication, to the point that in a contest (when the show still aired), ''[[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu they beat]]'' ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' in a popularity contest.
* One of the animators for the infamous Canadian animated series ''WesternAnimation/MyLifeMe'' [[https://twitter.com/AnimatedWoman/status/719560883119071232 stated on Twitter]] that the show became popular in Malaysia and Mexico, and also was broadcasted in its entirety in France.
** It also appears to have been popular in New Zealand.
* Any imported show aired on Creator/NickJr will become popular no matter what, due to how popular the block and network both are among the target audience. Besides ''PAW Patrol'', other foreign shows that were made popular in the USA by Nick Jr include ''WesternAnimation/PeppaPig'', ''WesternAnimation/TheBackyardigans'', ''WesternAnimation/MaxAndRuby'', ''WesternAnimation/BobTheBuilder'', ''WesternAnimation/{{Franklin}}'' and ''WesternAnimation/LittleBear''.
* While widely-hated in North America and its native United Kingdom, ''WesternAnimation/NinaNeedsToGo'' is the second most popular Disney Junior short in India, only beaten by Tasty Time with [=ZeFronk=].
** It also got a more favorable reception when Japan's Creator/TVTokyo aired it as part of ''Disney Sunday'', with many people thinking the voice actors chosen fit their roles and that Nina's adventures were fun. There have also been many parents there who say that the show convinced their kids to try and use the bathroom, which was the complete opposite of what happened in the US and UK where kids actually copied Nina waiting until the last minute to use the bathroom.
* ''WesternAnimation/NoddysToylandAdventures'' is ''huge'' in France, where he is known as [[DubNameChange Oui-Oui]]. The country got a lot of merchandise and the various incarnations of the show air multiple times a day. They even gained two musical live shows based on ''Noddy In Toyland'' exclusively shown in France with the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcnzQXgo7k4 first being "Oui-Oui et le cadeau Suprise"]] ("Noddy And The Surprise Gift") from 2009 ([[MilestoneCelebration to celebrate the character's 60th Anniversary]]) complete [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xlCvVgilfk&list=OLAK5uy_mSlvaR-bnhtq3JNbW2o92Mf4iD5K-Jfhk&index=1 with it's own album]] and a DVD release. The first show ran in France until early 2011 to make way for a second live show called [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-jeIgdvCqk "Oui-Oui Et Le Grand Carnaval"]] ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_bnt_Dfxpc "Noddy And The Big Carnaval"]]) which ran from 2012 till 2013. Like the first show, [[https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61M-h2DSJtL.jpg it also gained a French album]] and DVD release. The most recent incarnation of the show, ''Noddy: Toyland Detective'', was actually co-produced in France and [[ShortRunInPeru aired there before other parts of the world]] due to Noddy's massive popularity there. Noddy is so big there that it has beaten home-grown productions like ''Literature/{{Babar}}'' and ''ComicBook/{{Asterix}}'' in polls with parent and toddler participants in France. The original books by ''Creator/EnidBlyton'' sell about 600,000 copies annually in that country.
** ''Make Way For Noddy'' was huge in Portugal. The theme tune became a popular children's song, the main character's outfit was a popular choice for a carnival costume, and older incarnations like ''Noddy's Toyland Adventures'' and ''Series/TheNoddyShop'' were rebroadcast in response to the popularity ''Make Way For Noddy'' had.
** ''Noddy'' is also popular in India, due to the various incarnations of the franchise being a staple of Pogo's line-up.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheOctonauts'' is a British cartoon made for Creator/{{CBeebies}}, but it's absolutely huge in North America. It helps that the show aired on Disney Junior in the US.
** The show is also pretty popular in China, so much that Season 5 showcases numerous sea creatures commonly found in China. There's even an Octonauts area at a popular theme park in Shanghai.
* ''WesternAnimation/OggyAndTheCockroaches'' is so popular in India that not only was it referenced in one of the show's episodes ("From Mumbai, with Love"), but the show serves as a major inspiration for the Indian cartoon ''Animation/PakdamPakdai''.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Oswald}}'' was also popular in India to the point where not only the people adored it, [[AdoredByTheNetwork but also]] [[Creator/CartoonNetwork one of the channels it aired on]][[note]](yes, Cartoon Network in India used to show pre-school shows, possibly due to being the first children's channel in the country)[[/note]].
* ''WesternAnimation/OvideAndTheGang'':
** ''Ovide'' is considered somewhat of a cult classic in the Netherlands. May have something to do with the thoroughly [[{{Woolseyism}} Woolseyed]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-ayGu0PYJA theme song]].
** They even made a feature length movie in Mexico. Extra effort was put into making the voice acting as similar to the original dubbing as possible (which is part of what made it so successful in the first place).
* ''WesternAnimation/PAWPatrol'', originally made in Canada for TV Ontario, became the biggest preschool phenomenon in the United States in years. It's currently the flagship program of Creator/NickJr and there's merchandise in just about any store in the United States. It also has three live shows to its' name created by American company [=VeeStar=], who was known for producing ''[[Series/SesameStreet Sesame Street Live]]''.
** It is also big in the UK to the point where [[https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2015/dec/05/paw-patrol-no-job-too-big-parents-christmas-must-have-toy the toys sold out during Christmas 2015]], which never happened in North America. The United Kingdom also got two theatrical {{Compilation Movie}}s of the show and also released ''Mighty Pups'' in theaters, which was so popular that encore screenings were shown two months after the inital release. [[note]] Unless it's something like an annual holiday re-release of a movie, like ''Film/TheMuppetChristmasCarol'', event cinema releases do not usually get played for more than one or two weeks in the United Kingdom.[[/note]]
** The show is also big in Latin America. It is impossible to go any place in the country and not see something related to the show there. It also airs not just on Nickelodeon, but on four local channels as well.
** It's also popular with Chinese and Japanese families living both domestically and overseas, with said families using the show as a tool to teach kids English. It's extremely notable in the case of the later, since its' popularity began '''even before an official Japanese dub was produced'''.
*** However, when the dub came to Japan, it didn't gain the instant popularity it did in America until partway through its' run, when rival series ''Anime/ShinkansenHenkeiRoboShinkalion'' was [[ScrewedByTheNetwork abrutply cancelled]] for a block of programming about the Olympic Games. The increasing ratings as it went on caused TV Tokyo to make an unnamed Sunday morning preschool block featuring ''PAW Patrol'' and the ''Disney Sunday'' slot which features Disney Junior shows. It's so popular there that the ''Ready, Race, Rescue!'' movie [[https://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2020/11/16-1/japan-box-office-demon-slayer-movie-stays-at-no1-for-5th-week cracked the top 10 at the box office in Japan]] despite only showing at one theater chain in the country (AEON). And in a rare move for an animated movie, ''PAW Patrol: The Movie'' is being released in Japan on the same day as it's being released in the United States.
** On a related note, while Chase is the most popular character in Canada, Marshall is the most popular among American audiences, with Skye and Rubble tied for second place. This has lead to most American merchandise featuring Marshall in a prominent role, and his popularity may have resulted in the creation of a firetruck playset for ''Ultimate Rescue''.
*** In Japan, Zuma seems to be the most popular, with Rocky a close second. Zuma is also pretty popular in Latin America too.
** It's extremely popular in Poland. Many of the Polish-language videos of ''PAW Patrol'' have over a million views, and they were the only non English-speaking country to get the ''Mighty Pups'' movie in theaters.
* In the United States, ''[[ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}} It's Christmastime Again, Charlie Brown]]'' was only shown once and was quickly forgotten. In Canada, however, Creator/{{YTV}} airs the special every year around the holidays, and it's considered one of the channel's holiday traditions, alongside airings of DirectToVideo Christmas specials.
** Another holiday special that airs often on YTV, despite the series not airing on the channel anymore, is the ''WesternAnimation/{{Rugrats}}'' special "The Turkey Who Came To Dinner".
* ''WesternAnimation/ThePenguinsOfMadagascar'' was one of Nick's highest-rated shows, but didn't make as big as an impact as ''[=SpongeBob=]'' or ''Series/{{iCarly}}'' did at the time. But in Japan and the Benelux, it's one of the most well-known Nickelodeon shows of all time, with Japan re-running the show to this day not only on their Nickelodeon feed, but also on Creator/DisneyXD.
* ''WesternAnimation/PeppaPig'''s popularity in Italy boomed up in 2012 and keeps creeping around the nation. It’s also the notable creator of the Peppa Pig WebAnimation/YouTubePoop.
** It also is very popular in America, and is Creator/NickJr's current [[AdoredByTheNetwork network darling]] after [[ChannelHop picking it up from]] Creator/CartoonNetwork, who had [[ScrewedByTheNetwork screwed it over]]. There have even been [[https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/tv/american-children-picking-up-british-15844100.amp reports of American children picking up British accents after watching the show]]!
** Probably the peak of its popularity comes from the Spanish-speaking world, to the point where on Website/YouTube, the six most popular Peppa Pig-related videos are all in Spanish. Even one Peppa Pig-related cosplay video in Spanish has more views than its home country of the UK has people!
** It's also big in Canada, where it stole the crown from Dora (see below) as Treehouse TV's flagship imported show. The merchandise sells extremely well there and they even got some of the UK live shows before they came to the United States, with some editions even touring twice in Canada!
** It also big in China, it even comes to the [[UnacceptableTargets terms of being untouchable,]] (though it has slightly more leeway with its parodies) as proven by Chinese video streaming website Billibilli's "[[http://member.bilibili.com/studio/creative-treaty/q0 Creative Treaty]]" that includes the rule that forbids mature videos that can [[MisaimedFandom attract young kids and peoples,]] it even [[https://imgur.com/6Ym6NOP includes]] the creepypasta version of Peppa Pig character as an example!
* ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'' has a massive Japanese fandom. If you go to the "overseas cartoon" section on 2ch, there will almost always be a thread for Phineas and Ferb near the top.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Pingu}}'' is very popular in Japan. They even got three exclusive DS games courtesy of Square Enix, its own line of toys produced by Bandai and even toys in KFC kids' meals.
** It's getting an new anime series called ''Pingu in the City'' which is produced in that country.
* The classic ''WesternAnimation/ThePinkPanther'' theatrical shorts had a huge cross-cultural appeal, thanks to their emphasis on physical humor and almost complete lack of dialogue.
* In France, ''WesternAnimation/PinkyAndTheBrain'' (known there as ''Minus et Cortex'') was (and is still) way more popular than ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'' and ''WesternAnimation/TinyToons'' will ever be. This is partially due to the fact that those other two shows based a lot of their jokes on pop culture references that passed over the heads of most of the audience, and untranslatable {{pun}}s.
* ''WesternAnimation/PJMasks'' is based on a French book series and was originally made for France 5 by a British
company [[note]] Entertainment One's UK branch, who also made ''Peppa Pig''[[/note]], but it's absolutely huge in the United States, to the point where its airings on Disney Junior get higher ratings and sell more merchandise than the channel's in-house productions save for the evergreen ''WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse''. In 2018, [[https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2018-10-29/paw-patrol-and-the-twilight-of-the-world-conquering-kids-tv-show the franchise sold more merchandise in the United States]] than ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}}'' or ''Franchise/DisneyPrincess'' did.
* ''Plonsters'' has its largest fanbase in Norway, where it's known as "Plipp, Plopp og Plomma".
* While ''[[WesternAnimation/PotsworthAndCompany Midnight Patrol: Adventures in the Dream Zone]]'' was cancelled after only one season, in the UK it stayed on TV for several years through repeats with only 13 episodes. It also got a UK-exclusive computer game and comic.
* ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls'' was also popular in Japan. So much so, in fact, that they made [[Anime/PowerpuffGirlsZ their own version of the series]]. It's even had merchandise released into TheNewTens.
* ''WesternAnimation/PrincessSissi'' is '''huge''' in Italy and has a ton of merchandise. Heck, according to eBay, Princess Sissi is more popular than [[WesternAnimation/Frozen2013 Anna and Elsa]]!
* ''WesternAnimation/TheRaccoons'' was huge in Ireland, Russia and Germany, as well as the UK, where it managed to pull in around '''7 million viewers per episode'''. For comparison, that's about '''12%''' of the UK's late 1980s population.
* ''WesternAnimation/RandyCunninghamNinthGradeNinja'' is more popular in Malaysia than in the U.S.
* ''WesternAnimation/ReadyJetGo'': The show is quite popular in Latin America. By the time Nat Geo Kids launched in Latin America, the show had garnered a huge fandom over there, along with shows like ''Jamie's Got Tentacles'' and ''Chuck's Choice''.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Recess}}'' was one of the most popular Disney shows in Germany. The show is very popular in Canada, to the point where it still airs on Family, [[{{Expy}} the Expy of]] [[Creator/DisneyChannel Disney Channel]]. The show is pretty popular in the U.K. too, and Japan. Butch, Hustler Kid, and Lawson are extremely popular over there, and T.J. is considered as the show's {{Moe}} symbol.
** Related to the Germany scenario, the entire series is on that country's iTunes even though this is a US series.
* While ''WesternAnimation/RenAndStimpyAdultPartyCartoon'' left [[FanonDiscontinuity a sour taste]] in both the U.S. and most parts of the world, the ShortRunner does have some strong fanbases in Eastern Europe (mostly in Poland).
* ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty'' has gained a steadily-growing fanbase in the United Kingdom, with many praising it for its twisted humour, creepy yet quirky character designs and has been described as "''Series/DoctorWho'' on acid".
** Word has it it's also somewhat popular in Japan as well, thanks to Morty's moe-like personality. The show also [[https://soranews24.com/2017/10/11/japan-desperately-trying-to-figure-out-americas-sudden-obsession-with-schezuan-sauce appeared on an episode]] of ''Toku Da Ne''.
* The French-British animated series WesternAnimation/{{Robotboy}} has a small but impressive cult following in Japan, considering its [[{{Moe}} cute]] titular Robot character.
** It still aired until around 2017 to 2018 in The United Kingdom, and still does in Eastern Europe, and Germany, it also has a surprisingly high number of fans in North America and Asia.
* ''WesternAnimation/RubyGloom'' is very popular in Japan for its PerkyGoth aesthetic.
