History NeedsMoreLove / WESTERNANIMATION

* ''WesternAnimation/MagicAdventuresOfMumfie'': Though it was popular in its home country of Britain as well as in the United States, Germany, Norway and Japan, the series has fallen into obscurity, unlike its sister show ''WesternAnimation/ThomasTheTankEngine''. Full of beautiful animation and great storytelling and being critically praised, it's a show people of any age can enjoy.

* ''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 DarthWiki/SoBadItsHorrible. Most of the haters of this series were simply [[NostalgiaFilter sticklers for nostalgia]] and the old Looney Tunes, completely ignoring the main characters are descendants of the legendary LT characters.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Robotboy}}'' does ''not'' deserve some of the flack it gets (at the very least [[SeasonalRot the first 2 or 3 seasons]]). If you look past the [[TheyCopiedItSoItSucks rip-off accusations]] and unfair judgments, it is an otherwise decent action/comedy show.

* WesternAnimation/{{Gawayn}} a troperriffic French/Italian cartoon that deserves more attention than it's getting, but it didn't get as much love as ''WesternAnimation/OggyAndTheCockroaches'' which still airs today everywhere, while Gawayn only aired to a handful of countries.

* WesternAnimation/{{Fillmore}} was a parody of 70's buddy cop films and crime dramas that took place in a middle school. The show was littered with hilarious one-liners, action-packed chase scenes, and great characters and stories. A shame it didn't make it past 26 episodes.

* WesternAnimation/{{Astroblast}} was a PBS Kids Sprout original preschool show that lasted for two seasons featuring a cast of anthropomorphic animals running a smoothie cafe in space. For a cartoon targeted at very young children the humor is fast-paced and can be clever on occasions. The animation is quite decent and the characters are entertaining and lovable.

* ''WesternAnimation/AtomicBetty'' gets a lot of crap from people who claim it is nothing more than a generic ''Kim Possible'' ripoff, and that is seriously unfair ([[SarcasmMode because every cartoon starring an]] ActionGirl [[SarcasmMode is a ripoff of]] ''[[SarcasmMode Kim Possible]]'', [[SarcasmMode right?]]). What people are missing out on is a series inspired by retro sci-fi that stars an amazing female lead and manages to produce tons of great action scenes that really made the most out of an otherwise relatively low animation budget as well as plenty of exciting stories that demonstrate how the writers' weren't afraid of shaking up the status quo, setting up for big reveals, or playing around with continuity. ''Atomic Betty'' knew it was something special and really does not get enough credit for making the most out of that.

* [[WesternAnimation/{{Astroblast}}]] was a [[Creator/SproutAka:PBSKidsSprout]] original preschool show that lasted for two seasons featuring a cast of anthropomorphic animals running a smoothie cafe in space. For a cartoon targeted at very young children the humor is fast-paced and can be clever on occasions. The animation is quite decent and the characters are entertaining and lovable.

* [[WesternAnimation/Astroblast]] was a [[creator/Sprout]] original preschool show that lasted for two seasons featuring a cast of anthropomorphic animals running a smoothie cafe in space. For a cartoon targeted at very young children the humor is very fast-paced and can be clever on occasions. The animation is quite decent and the characters are all charming and unique in their own ways.

* ''WesternAnimation/AtomicPuppet''. This series is about a kid who owns a talking sock puppet who is actually a transformed superhero, and TheyFightCrime as a superhero duo. As weird as that premise sounds, it's tons of fun and action-packed with spectacular art and animation (by [[Creator/MercuryFilmworks the same people]] behind ''Wander Over Yonder'' and ''Star vs. the Forces of Evil''), great characters, and a ''huge'' case of GrowingTheBeard. Unfortunately, it has an extremely tiny fanbase because Disney XD treated it as expendable slot filler. And this is a show that was nominated for best animated series by the National Cartoonists Society alongside ''The Loud House'' and the frickin' ''Simpsons'', for crying out loud!

* ''WesternAnimation/TheWildThornberrys'' is arguably one of the greatest nature-themed shows around (animated and live-action alike), features a respectful and well-researched look at non-Western cultures, and features some compelling and nuanced characters (some of whom get some much appreciated further development in TheMovie). Sadly, while it was one of Creator/{{Nickelodeon}}'s hottest properties early in its run, it ended without much ceremony and has been largely forgotten.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheWorldOfPeterRabbitAndFriends'' is a British AnimatedAnthology series from the early 90's based on the works of Creator/BeatrixPotter. Each episode would usually be in AA form or sometimes full length episodes, such as a full length episode of ''Literature/TheTaleOfSamuelWhiskers''. The animation for the animal characters are spot on with their original book designs.

* ''WesternAnimation/GeorgeShrinks'' is a really funny and genuinely wholesome preschool show from Canada with a great protagonist (and an endearing supporting cast), smart writing that departed great lessons (especially about stuff like creativity and problem-solving) for its young viewers without talking down on them, and a really awesome theme song. Yet sadly, it never seems to get as much attention or love as similarly well-crafted preschooler-aimed productions like ''Franklin'' and ''Arthur''.

* ''WesternAnimation/PackagesFromPlanetX'' is a really fun and hilarious sci-fi cartoon from Canada with great characters and a lot of entertaining stories that really go all out with the premise. Unfortunately, it got ScrewedByTheNetwork in USA and only lasted on season as a result.

* ''WesternAnimation/JimmyTwoShoes'' is a Canadian animated series that's audience was severely limited by its distribution by Disney in the United States and United Kingdom, [[ScrewedByTheNetwork rarely promoting it and airing it at rather strange hours]], likely due to the fact 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, extremely catchy music and some actually very nice animation done by the same studio that animates ''WesternAnimation/WanderOverYonder''.

* ''WesternAnimation/TimeSquad'' seems to only be remembered for it's [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar infamous homosexual innuendo]] and [[TheyCopiedItSoItSucks being a rip-off of Jay Ward's classic "Peabody and Sherman";]] but it was so much more than that with clever writing, hilarious interpretations of historical figures, and playing fast and loose with the jokes.

* ''WesternAnimation/WeirdYears'' was a sweet and hilarious cartoon from Canada about a quirky but endearing family from Eastern Europe who have immigrated to Canada. Its main characters were very likeable, its themes on family and immigration were very nice, and had some great instances of GettingCrapPastTheRadar, even by Canadian cartoon standards.

* ''WesternAnimation/LittlestPetShop2012'' is a cute, fun, little show involving pets that get up to silly antics which gets overshadowed by [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic a certain other show that had been going on for a extra two years]] and because the creator's [[WesternAnimation/MyGymPartnersAMonkey previous cartoon]] has a very bad reputation on the Internet.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheMagicAdventuresOfMumfie'': Though it was popular in its home country of Britain as well as in the United States, Germany, Norway and Japan, the series has fallen into obscurity, unlike its sister show ''WesternAnimation/ThomasTheTankEngine''. Full of beautiful animation and great storytelling and being critically praised, it's a show people of any age can enjoy. It's also the highest-rated British animated series on IMDb as of October 2014.

* ''WesternAnimation/WillasWildLife'' isa cute little cartoon about a little girl with lots of talking wild animals as pets. It's sweet and funny, and also has some really nice themes about celebrating the various forms that intelligence can take on.

* ''WesternAnimation/WolvesWitchesAndGiants'': It was a fun and witty show featuring the narration of the late Creator/SpikeMilligan. Each antagonist would fill the roll of such fairy tales as Goldilocks and even ones obscure. Made by the same people whom did WesternAnimation/GrizzlyTalesForGruesomeKids, it has a bit of humor you could understand. Heck, even the antagonists can be funny sometimes as well. This is one of those shows that deserve as much attention as ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendsOfTreasureIsland''.

* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyTales'': It really makes me sad that many people don't like this or think it's an earlier G3 clone of MLP. I've seen all the episodes and while it definitely has its problems (like bad music, continuity errors, and one episode that should not have been made), it does tackle certain issues fairly, the characters have some personality and are flawed (though they could have gotten more development), and it does take its audience seriously. I personally liked it, though it's definitely no ''Friendship Is Magic''.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheCrumpets'' had a unique art style, an adorable character design, funny jokes and neighbor feuds, and clever stories and writing, though it's not safe from bursts of mean-spiritness and vastly dark moments. It has a very minimal fanbase and a lack of reviews (even in its native France), not to mention the show didn't localize to a lot of countries. The English dub for the first two seasons (which features anime dub regulars) is very difficult to find as it never aired in the industrialized Anglosphere, but it's partially available on Website/YouTube officially. The show isn't afraid to be progressive in regards to feminism and homosexuality. The sequel ''Teen Crumpets'' was more character-driven, had a more likable cast in some ways and great rock numbers, and even won two awards, but it has yet to see a complete English release.

* ''WesternAnimation/AtomicPuppet''. This series is about a kid who owns a talking sock puppet who is actually a transformed superhero, and TheyFightCrime as a superhero duo. As weird as that premise sounds, it's tons of fun and action-packed with excellent animation (by [[Creator/MercuryFilmworks the same people]] behind ''Wander Over Yonder'' and ''Star vs. the Forces of Evil''), great characters, and a ''huge'' case of GrowingTheBeard. Unfortunately, it has an extremely tiny fanbase because both Disney XD and Teletoon treat it as expendable slot filler. And this is a show that was nominated for best animated series by the National Cartoonists Society alongside ''The Loud House'' and the frickin' ''Simpsons'', for crying out loud!

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Fangbone}}'' gets a lot of crap for its superficial similarities to ''Star vs the Forces of Evil'', but what viewers are missing out on is a very entertaining series with fun characters and stories, some creative takes on common fantasy tropes, and plenty of exciting action scenes.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Grojband}}'' isn't as popular as Creator/FreshTV's other animated series and was unfairly ScrewedByTheNetwork during its time on air. And that's a shame because it's a very funny show loaded with SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic exploring multiple genres, creative writing, and a very self-aware nature that gives it a unique and offbeat presentation despite its simple-sounding premise.

* ''WesternAnimation/JimmyTwoShoes'' is a Canadian animated series that's audience was severely limited by its distribution by Disney in the United States and United Kingdom, [[ScrewedByTheNetwork rarely promoting it and airing it at rather strange 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, extremely catchy music and some actually very nice animation done by the same studio that animates ''WesternAnimation/WanderOverYonder'' (Well the first season of both shows). [[http://www.toonbarn.com/other-cartoons/jimmy-shoes-award-excellence-television-program-animation/ It even won an award!]]

* ''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 Creator/JhonenVasquez, the creator of ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim''. It's likely being overshadowed by the success of ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'' and ''{{WesternAnimation/Motorcity}}'', though it's made by the same studio as the latter. Still, so far it's 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/{{Skatoony}}'' is a show worth mentioning. Rarely are there any animated shows that double as a quiz show, plus the characters are diverse and colorful. It has yet to see the light of day airing in Cartoon Network US, even with the North America remake. Also for fans of ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama'' or ''WesternAnimation/JimmyTwoShoes'', the North American remake guest stars characters from said shows.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheMightyDucks'', one of Disney's cartoons from the 1990s. It was an action-comedy that had endearing characters and some truly impressive action scenes. And it only lasted one season, [[ScrewedByTheNetwork most likely due to its unusual premise]] and the fact that it was totally different from the movies that it was based on.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendsOfTreasureIsland'' was a very interesting take on the ''Literature/TreasureIsland'' story as it's an All Animal adaption that added more supernatural and dark elements as well as expanding the role of one of the minor characters from the book, Pew. Fairly overlooked and left into obscurity, it needs just as much attention as any for those that love this kind of stuff.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Robotboy}}'' doesn’t deserve some of the flack it gets (at the very least [[SeasonalRot the first 2 or 3 seasons]]). If you look past the [[TheyCopiedItSoItSucks rip-off accusations]], it is an otherwise decent action show.

* ''Barney'' was a short lived tv series that ran from 1988 to 1999. It starred a friendly sheepdog named Barney. The show was nothing but pure SweetDreamsFuel.
