Ren And Stimpy will always remain the kings of obscure cartoons! Invader Zim is still a close second. Speaking of which:
But Ren and Stimpy have WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too much mainstream regonition.
And in all seriousness, The Thirteen Ghosts Of Scooby Doo. Yes, it's still Scooby Doo, but it is the most obscure Scooby Doo series.
Anyone Remember Where My Dogs At? It was a short lived MTV series about two dogs that live with various celebrities. It got cancelled after a controversy in an episode where Snoop Dogg had women on leashes following him like actual dogs, which was found degrading. It was very much an unintentional period piece, as it depicted celebrity couples who are no longer together (Tom Cruise and Katie Holms) and celebrities who are no longer alive (Michael Jackson).
I liked how Jamie Foxx (At least I think it was him) was winning awards left and right in his episode. He even won a Latin Grammy and the Stanley Cup! Also, the reason Michael Jackson is so messed up is because he's working for the government to track down terrorists, and they want him to blend in.
Could The Presenters count? It was an claymation short that would air on Nicktoons network before the log changed about well, 3 presenters who would come up with wacky ideas to present to their boss. It was pretty dang funny, had some good writing. I would like to also count Rex the runt(an aardaman cartoon about these 4 dogs bizarre adventures) and Imp( another short done in CGI. It was about an imp who would repeatedly attempt and fail at take over the world. He had a snarky imp, a nice sweet bunny imp and two Tweedle dum like brothers as henchmen, it was also pretty funny.)
My Tumblr "If theirs one thing I'm good at, it's blowing" Jesse Cox 2013I remember liking those.
And Pelswick. Anyone who's seen the show is saying "of course" because of my avatar. Made the page for that one. Also, DVD not released for having too few fans.
Also, Catscratch.
Wondering if these are obscure enough to count.
Ohmygod I'mnottheonlyoneherewhorememberslikingthoseshowspleasemarryme.
Anyway, probably the most obscure show that comes to mind is another Nicktoon, Kaput & Zosky. It honestly was pretty stupid but I still liked it.

On my wave, passing oooooooonDoes anyone remember Bob Morane? All I remember of it is the badass intro but nothing of the acutall show sticked with me....but srsly DAT INTRO
Also speaking of The Dreamstone there also was Bimbles Bucket from the same creator, I loved that show as a kid.
And Oz Kids ! My god that was my favourite show in kindergarten and when I rewatched it recently I realised that the dialouges were suprisingly sophisticated (at least in the german dub)

- Some other obscure cartoons I thought were the Secret Show, kappa Mikey, Corneal and Bernie and the X's. All pretty decent comical Nicktoons
Yea, I remember Kappa Mikey! When I was younger, I had a fear of anyone else watching this with me. My parents were total rippers on animes I watched at the time.
Dakota's blog An odd agent of justice@XJ,
I'm kicking myself for forgetting to mention Kaput & Zosky, considering I still have some fanart of it hanging in my room. But yeah, I liked all these "Nicktoons exclusive" and import shows.
No one mentioned Yakkity Yak, huh?
I think it was mentioned on one of the earlier pages.
Seconded on The Secret Show & Corneil&Bernie; very underrated yet good overall efforts, IMHO.
I'd also like to throw Iron Man Armored Adventures into this pile - this is a superhero show I actually loved, despite its flaws and the fact that it was teen-ified. For the most part, they at least did it well, IMHO.
Jimmy Two Shoes and Kick Buttowski (but only so much, especially considering its drop in quality during its 2nd season) also get an honorable mention here from me.

Even if I had different face, I AM STILL DISGRACED.Basically, anything original Nicktoons Network airing before they changed the network name and got overrun by Dragonball Z, Power Rangers, and MARVEL cartoons. They were nearly all either made in Flash or CG, and they were all pretty different than what you usually saw. They were made on small budgets and were a lot like the first Nicktoons of the early 90's in that they took risks in their visual style and sometimes what the show was about.
That is just about something I can admire about most of them...
Even if I had different face, I AM STILL DISGRACED.@King Kix Same here, though my parents don't really hate anime, I guess I was just a little embarrassed. Also I forgot to mention Kaput and Zosky, that's another forgotten Nicktoon I liked. Also I have to admit that Jimmy Two shoes and Kick Buttowski were the main things that brought me to Disney XD.
My Tumblr "If theirs one thing I'm good at, it's blowing" Jesse Cox 2013Night Hood! It's 26 episode series starring Arsene Lupin which is gorgeous and I really enjoyed as a whole.
Improving as an author, one video at a time.The Buzz on Maggie. I can understand why people don't like it, however.
I'm not LGBT. I just think Rain's really cool. Apologies if my humor gets too painful.I think "Maggie" is still a little too mainstream.
Anyone remember Paddington Bear?

Dakota's blog An odd agent of justiceI do! That used a form of stop-motion that I never seen used since, for the human characters.
- /... I think you and I remember this show differently

Dakota's blog An odd agent of justiceYeah, I remember THIS one.
Highlander: The Animated Series. The series is a bit hit and miss, but i like it regardless.
Happy-Ness Secrets of the Loch. I can't even find any episodes online, and couldn't find the intro for the longest time.
I always loved Sir Prise and his habit of playing the bagpipes unseen.
