History NeedsMoreLove / WESTERNANIMATION

* ''WesternAnimation/RandyCunninghamNinthGradeNinja''. Though still rather new, the fact it's hardly caught on at all yet is almost baffling if just because the character and art style designs were made by JhonenVasquez, the creator of InvaderZim. It's likely being overshadowed by the success of ''GravityFalls'' and ''{{WesternAnimation/Motorcity}}'', though it's made by the same studio as the latter. Still, it's so far an excellent series that loves [[AffectionateParody playing with and satirizing]] the cliches of other KidHero shows, with very fun characters and fantastic animation and voice acting that will hopefully grow in popularity.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheMightyDucks'', one of cartoons of Disney's from the 1990s. Was an action/comedy that had endearing characters and some truly impressive action scenes. And it only lasted one season, [[ScrewedByTheNetwork most likely do to it's unusual premise]].

* While ''Wild West C.O.W Boys of Moo Mesa'' has a cult following behind it, there are still few people that even remember or know about it, despite it's very bizarre setting, it has great writing, enjoyable characters and lovely camp value.

* ''RoswellConspiracies''. A fantastic show saddled with a clumsy title. The show posits that all the monsters of old myth and legend are actually different communities of aliens [[TheMasquerade living secretly on Earth]] for various reasons. Some like the [[BigfootSasquatchAndYeti Yeti]] are benign, while others like the Vampires and Lycanthropes are hostile to humanity. The show is arc-based and follows a TheMenInBlack-type organization as it deals with these creatures, though the male main character doesn't entirely trust the organization's motives. The best thing in the show is the ActionGirl female lead, Shlain Blaze, a [[WhiteHairedPrettyGirl white-haired]] {{Goth}} [[OurBansheesAreLouder banshee]] with sound-based powers and a cool Irish accent. The [[EarWorm theme song was awesome]], too. When it was rebroadcast for a short time on Saturday mornings in the U.S., the episodes were shown out of order, and they led off with the [[BlamEpisode goofy giant ant episode]] that had nothing to do with the major plot arcs.

** Speaking of CBS' SaturdayMorningCartoons, there's also ''FlyingRhinoJuniorHigh''. Interesting premise, funny characters and hidden educational messages. But it continued airing until CBS decided to end their SMC block.

* ''WesternAnimation/LoonaticsUnleashed'' does not, we repeat '''NOT''' deserve half the crap it gets. It needed some work to be honest, but it was by no means SoBadItsHorrible. Most of the haters of this series were simply sticklers for nostalgia and the old Looney Tunes, completely ignoring the main characters are descendants of the legendary LT characters.

* ''TheMarvelousMisadventuresOfFlapjack'' was a surprisingly funny and awesome show that deserves more. CartoonNetwork got rid of all the online episodes and stopped showing reruns the day after the finale aired. It has a pretty small fanbase, too. It's also worth pointing out that without this show, the likes of ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' and ''RegularShow'' would have never got picked up.

* ''AdventuresFromTheBookOfVirtues'' is a creative PBS animated series dedicated to teaching virtues to kids, with great animation and cool characters. Apparently, it's been so obscure in the past few years that people seem to forget it, even after being taken off the air...and yet, it's quite popular with the animation industry and the production company behind it ''[[CashCowFranchise still]]'' [[CashCowFranchise promotes it today]].[[hottip:*:Well, I think the show being quietly forgotten by some kids was due to PBS's InvisibleAdvertising that only put it on their primetime and Sunday morning schedules.]]

* ''MikeLuAndOg'' is perhaps the most underrated CartoonNetwork show from the 1990s. While it did get some good reviews, praising it for being an international effort (between the U.S. and Russia) and having [[GirlsNeedRoleModels a tomboyish girl in the lead,]] it was barely promoted and now Boomerang airs it pretty much whenever they feel like it. Some of the characters are interesting, it had genuinely funny moments and it put a clever spin on the CultureClash cliche.

* ''DaveTheBarbarian'' had endearing characters and some truly wonderful writing. It even had the critics on its side! There were actual reviews about ''a {{Disney}} cartoon'' that really raved about the show! Sadly, it was TooGoodToLast and not even Disney will provide it the DVD treatment, nor reruns. *Sigh*

* ''{{Archer}}'' is a hilarious and brilliant satirical take on all spy-fiction. Definitely needs more love.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheMightyDucks'', one of cartoons of {{Disney}}'s from the 90's. Was an action/comedy that had endearing characters and some truly impressive action scenes. And it only lasted one season, [[ScrewedByTheNetwork most likely do to it's unusual premise]].

* ''Xyber9NewDawn'' got repeatedly ScrewedByTheNetwork, both Fox and Jetix, despite having awesome characters, an interesting backstory, five-star voice talent (TonyJay and TimCurry were both present) and even some decent for its time ConspicuousCG. It's oddly similar to a EasternRPG, so if you like those, you'll probably like this too.
* ''KingArthursDisasters''. It has colorful animation, good voice acting, and it's antics have that nostalgic feel as they resemble that of Scooby Doo or any other old cartoon (ironically, one country airs it on Boomerang). It doesn't air in the U.S. and not that many fans contribute enough to its "fanbase."
* ''MickeyDonaldGoofyTheThreeMusketeers''. A great Direct-to-DVD feature lost amongst the wave of "cheapquels" and compilation movies {{Disney}} releases. A solidly written film starring the stars of the ClassicDisneyShorts. Very awesome...yet very underrated.
* ''RoswellConspiracies''. A fantastic show saddled with a clumsy title. The show posits that all the monsters of old myth and legend are actually different communities of aliens [[TheMasquerade living secretly on Earth]] for various reasons. Some like the [[BigfootSasquatchAndYeti Yeti]] are benign, while others like the Vampires and Lycanthropes are hostile to humanity.

The [[EarWorm theme song was awesome,]] too. When it was rebroadcast for a short time on Saturday mornings in the U.S., the episodes were shown out of order, and they led off with the [[BlamEpisode goofy giant ant episode]] that had nothing to do with the major plot arcs.

* ''A Miss Mallard Mystery'' is a fun show with amazing 2D animation centering around a world full of ducks, one of them being a famous "ducktective" who solves mysteries with Willard (Miss Mallard is his aunt). Yet it only aired for one year--2000 to 2001--and to the light of day has no media release and was only aired in Canada. Guess your only was of watching it is Jaroo, and even that website overrules it's videos with toy reviews for stuff little kids never even heard of.

* ''ChalkZone'' has an extremely small cult following for its quirks, hilarity, music, and being the first of two shows about a kid being in a world of other kids' imaginary creations ([[FostersHomeForImaginaryFriends the other came quite a bit later]]). It was eclipsed [[{{Rugrats}} by]] [[WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants pretty]] [[FairlyOddparents much]] [[CatDog every]] [[JimmyNeutron other]] {{Nickelodeon}} [[InvaderZim show]] [[AsToldByGinger airing]] [[MyLifeAsATeenageRobot since]] [[TheWildThornberrys its]] [[WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom arrival]]. It was shown more during its first three seasons from 2000 to 2003. It was apparently so unpopular, [[ScrewedByTheNetwork that its next season would air new episodes too inconsistently (without advertising) taking ''2 years'']] until NickToons took the next two seasons and {{Nickelodeon}} showed its SeriesFinale in 2008. Now NickToons has it again and slammed it in a 1:00-3:00 AM slot on Tuesday mornings and a 2:00 AM slot on Sunday Mornings. And unlike the other Nick shows in the blue entries above, no DVD has been created or even stated to be in production. And to drive the point home, other than having entries in the CrowningMusicOfAwesome for the [[EarWorm theme song]], ending songs, and [[VillainSong Scrawl's songs]], it isn't listed (or even mentioned) in FunnyMoments or the like. Even ''[[ChalkZone its own page]]'' states that it [[NeedsMoreLove needs more tropes and love]].
* ''JimmyTwoShoes'' is a recent Canadian animated series that's audience was severely limited by its distribution by Disney in the US and UK, [[ScrewedByTheNetwork rarely promoting it and airing it at rather off hours]], likely due to even its mere existence and premise is GettingCrapPastTheRadar (though ValuesDissonance between America and Canada is really to blame for that). Which is a shame, because it's an excellent, hilarious show with great characters, [[EarWorm extremely catchy music]] and some actually very nice [[AdobeFlash Flash animation]].
* ''{{Spliced}}''. You can't even see it in the US unless you use Website/YouTube or are one of the lucky few to get {{Qubo}}. And the network that airs it in its native Canada doesn't seem too fond of it either. It's funny, takes inspiration from TheIslandOfDrMoreau for its interesting character designs (read: MixAndMatchCritters you never would've thought of mixing in a million years) and it feels like something that would've aired on Nickelodeon in the mid-90s. Oh, and Peri is cute.
* ''TheBrothersFlub''. It had an interesting premise, had that certain Nickelodeon feel that all of their 1990s work had, yet for some reason it vanished almost instantly and ''no one'' remembers it. Its IMDb listing has only two credits, both dead wrong. Out of 26 episodes, the only known episode names are the ones that appear on its two long out-of-print VHS collections. The only clip on Website/YouTube is a super low quality one of the intro, which doesn't really do it justice since the theme song was annoying. And the Wikipedia page wasn't created until ''the end of the 2000's''.
* ''BlazingDragons'', a wonderfully funny and clever show that was cursed by a late-night time slot in the US. I stayed up to watch it every night, though.

* ''BountyHamster'' was a very sadly short-lived British animated series (only twenty-five 11 minute episodes were made) that was never aired in North America, only the UK and Australia (though you can download the whole series if you know where to look). With a ludicrous amount of hilarious [[ShoutOut Shout Outs]], great animation and characters, and ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'' co-creator Jeff "Swampy" Marsh in charge of storyboarding, it was a seriously awesome and funny show that shamefully never even broadcasted in the United States.
* ''TheSpectacularSpiderMan'' is possibly the greatest Spider-Man cartoon yet, with both tight plotting and incredibly fluid animation, yet it was ignored by many simply because it wasn't like the 90s Spider-Man cartoon.

* ''{{Tutenstein}}'' is a hilarious, witty show about 3,000 years dead Pharaoh who returns as a mummy. Did I mention he was a bratty ten year old when he died? Resurrection didn't fix that. Absolutely wonderful, but somehow ridiculously obscure.
* ''XMenEvolution'' was a very unique take on the XMen mythos.

* "Ninjago" is actually pretty interesting and fun to watch for something that's MerchandiseDriven.It has characters with actual personality, and its not that cheesy as one might expect.However, there's been no reviews and the only people commenting on it are usually either 11 years old or only care about the toy sets.

* The pilot ''JoeyToTheWorld'' never got picked up by Cartoon Network even though it's part of it's failed ''Cartoonstitute'' anthology series. One main reason is the creator didn't know the cartoon was supposed to be for kids, and it mentioned condoms, rape, smothering from mothers, whorehouses, crackheads and many other stuff kids shouldn't know. It was actually pretty funny.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{The Mighty Ducks}}'', one of cartoons of {{Disney}}'s from the 90's. Was an action/comedy that had endearing characters and some truly impressive action scenes. And it only lasted one season, [[ScrewedByTheNetwork most likely do to it's unusual premise]].
* ''KaBlam'' got little popularity due to ''HeyArnold'' premiering around the time. Matters were worse a few years later when ''SpongebobSquarepants'' premiered in 1999. Season four never finished and seasons five and six never saw the light of day.
* ''RubyGloom'' was fantastically animated with gorgeous Gothic scenery, likeable characters, and excellent writing. Unfortunately, there were only two seasons and it has never been aired in the United States.

* ''FlyTales'' is a collection of animated shorts [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin about an anthropomorphic fly]] that was only ever aired properly in Canada, France, and Eastern Europe. YouTube just may be your only shot at watching it.

* ''RoswellConspiracies''. A fantastic show saddled with a clumsy title. The show posits that all the monsters of old myth and legend are actually different communities of aliens [[TheMasquerade living secretly on Earth]] for various reasons. Some like the [[BigfootSasquatchAndYeti Yeti]] are benign, while others like the Vampires and Lycanthropes are hostile to humanity.

* ''{{Birdz}}''. Completely impossible to find outside YouTube. But it was a good show from the twilight of CBS' SaturdayMorningCartoon era and it got screwed over massively. Enjoy the characters and the writing that manages to offer morals without beating them over your head or shoehorning them in.

* ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDad'' is often a victim of ComplainingAboutShowsYouDontWatch, simply because 1.) The family structure is similar to ''FamilyGuy'', therefore [[SarcasmMode it MUST be a clone]] and 2.) It's a SethMacFarlane show, so it automatically deserves to be hated in the eyes of [[HateDumb some]]. However, ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDad'' has proven to have developed a unique brand of humor and is often praised for its writing and handling of hot-button issues. Too bad FOX refuses to promote the show as much as it does the other animated programs.

* ''MickeyDonaldGoofyTheThreeMusketeers''. A great Direct-to-DVD feature lost amongst the wave of "cheapquels" and compilation movies {{Disney}} releases. A solidly written film starring the stars of the ClassicDisneyShorts. Very awesome.

* You know, for a show with a [[LongTitle Long]] WordSaladTitle and a premise that essentially boils down to PowerRangers with [[EverythingsBetterWithMonkeys monkeys]], ''SuperRobotMonkeyTeamHyperforceGo'' was a cute little {{Animesque}} show that got ScrewedByTheNetwork when Jetix was shut down. Your best chance of finding it is on Youtube and even then it takes some searching to snuff out every episode. It's 52 episodes with a pretty dedicated fanbase and really grows on you after a while (apart from the occasional negative trope). [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIot0U1Zzhw This review probably explains it better.]]

* ''GravityFalls''. It has a really nice premise and ''very'' funny characters, and {{Disney}}'s treating it fairly nicely. Yet lots of people tend to forget this gem, mainly [[NostalgiaGoggles they say all of post-2006 Disney Channel programs suck.]]

* ''Robotomy'' was an enjoyable show about robots in a school. With episode plots like a social networking site befriending Thrasher and Blastus, and Thrasher accidentally setting a war whilst babysitting Maimy's little brother. But Cartoon Network decided to yank it off the air since it hardly got airplay outside America and promotion, and was left in the dust of the success of ''AdventureTime'' and ''RegularShow''. Shame, since it was funny and Patton Oswalt provided Thrasher's voice.
