Nicktoon Favorites

[SpotLane]

What are your favorite top five Nicktoons titles, characters and episodes?

1. Ren and Stimpy
Favorite character: Ren Hoek.
Favorite episode: Stimpy's Fan Club.
I just love the scene where Ren who is utterly overcome with jealously tries to kill Stimpy in his sleep. Very distrubing.

2. Rocko's Modern Life
Fav character: Peaches!
Fav episode: Heff in a Handbasket
To me, this is the funniest episode. "SEA MONKEYS!"

3. Aaahh! Real Monsters
Fav Character: Ickis
Fav episode: Monsters Blues
I love the whole episode I thought it was very touching.

4. Invader Zim
Fav Character: Gir!
Fav episode: Dark Harvest
One of the most distrubing episodes ever.

5. Spongebob Squarepants
Fav Character: Squidward
Fav episode: Jellyfishing
Jellyfishing is also Roger Bumpass's favorite episode as well.

1. Ren and Stimpy
The Nicktoon that should have never been. This one was way too good for Nickelodeon. Long live Ren and Stimpy! Long live Spumco!

2. Rocko's Modern Life
Another hidden gem. There are those who only like the early episodes, and those who only like the later episodes, but me, I liked them all. They were different, but all great.

3. Fairly Odd Parents
Wacky good times.

4. Hey Arnold
This one was decent. I'd never go out of my way to see every episode, but if it was on I'd watch it. I like the more subdued humor style, it was a little more original than all those cartoons that seem to just be trying to create a more "kid-friendly" (i.e. watered-down) Ren and Stimpy.

5. Angry Beavers
This one had its moments, it was never one of my favorites, though.

6. SpongeBob SquarePants
This one could never hold its own against its predecessor and clearest influence, Rocko's Modern Life, but it had a few funny moments nonetheless.

7. Doug
Man, this show sucked. Every episode ended in Deus Ex Machina. Sloppy writing, sloppy animation, even the voice acting was sub-par. It had some quirks that could occasionally be funny, but not nearly enough of them.

8. Rugrats
This show is incredibly overrated. The animation sucks, the writing is formulaic, and simply put, babies are annoying. How this got popular enough to spawn those !@#$ movies, I'll never know. The first season had a few decent episodes, but after that the writers quickly retreated to stagnation and formulaic episodes.

9. Aaahh!!! Real Monsters
I never really "got" this one. It's like someone took all the parts that make up a good series, and then put them together just slightly wrong so that it was never really funny. There's nothing specific I can point to that made this series bad, just... no ha-ha.

10. Rocket Power
I put this in the same category as Real Monsters. Where's the funny? Completely bland, uninspired television.

11. CatDog
Just another wannabe Ren and Stimpy clone, without the creative genius of Spumco and Jon K to make it fly.

12. Wild Thornberrys
Like Real Monsters and Rocket Power, this one consistently failed to provoke any laughter. Bland, uninspired, and with bad animation to boot.




This list represents only the shows I've seen more than a couple episodes of, so before anyone gets angry at me for leaving, say, Invader Zim off of the list, I only left it off because I've only seen one episode of it. I thought that one episode was friggin' hilarious, as good or better than some of the best episodes of some of my favorites like Rocko, but I don't think it's fair to judge an entire series on the basis of one episode, so I elected to leave it off the list completely.

Meatwad's_friend, Animanics, Pinky and the Brain, and Tiny Toons are NOT NICKTOONS!!! Nickeloadeon just slapped their dirty logo on those shows to make us think they are!

Here's my list:
-Rocko's Modern Life: This gem was terribly overlooked and underappreciated.

-Invader Zim: The animation is beautiful and the show itself is laugh out loud funny (Dib is my favorite character). I would watch it all the time if Nick gave it a steady timeslot

-Fairly Odd Parents: Jay Leno as the Crimson Chin!!

-Chalkzone: I know a lot of people hate this show but I think its cute and has potential. I just wish they wouldn't have those wierd music videos
------------

I wish Rocket Power would go away forever!! I'd rather take a math test than watch that drek!!

Pelswick-Oh, man, this show is great. I don't know why Nick treats it with shame. Wacky, poibtless, and out of control. That's what I like. you never know where it's going.

The Angry Beavers-This is a great show, but the fact that they moved it just stinks.

The Fairly Oddparents-I LOVE this show. My favorate show! HILLARIOUS! Like Pelswick, you never know where it's going.

Invader Zim-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! This is so great! An animated msterpiece! HAHAHAHA!

SpongeBob-Ever since it first premiered. Who dosen't love SpongeBob? I can;t belive I forgot this the first time...

[Sorceress]

Ren and Stimpy is my all time favourite toon on Nick. And I kinda like Spongebob too, I like his pet snail Gary. But every other toon they make is craptacular.
