If I had to choose a favourite it would either have to be: Total Drama or The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes. Star Wars: The Clone Wars is fairly awesome as well.
Overrated: Take a guess.
Underrated: Iron Man Armoured Adventures, the second series is far superior to the first one. The Fairly Odd Parents
Invader Zim is pretty epic. Also, just saw the Brak Show on adultswim.com, it was EPIC. Johnny Bravo is one of my recent favorites, too. AND WHY IS EVERYONE HATING ON MYSTERY INC? SpongeBob has been REALLY mediocre recently, it's had a bigger decline in awesomeness than Futurama... Also, has anyone seen that new Nicktoon, Wild Grinders? It looked like a show I would watch once in a while, but I don't know. Also, I'm starting to think that American Dad isn't as overrated as everyone thinks. It's the best out of the trio right now... Also, Bob's Burgers is EXTREMELY underrated. If you haven't seen it recently, try it.
@PikminMonster I never really got into Code Lyoko, but the plot was pretty good from the episodes that aired, the animation was also good from what I remember, and, most importantly, it took it's viewer seriously. I really don't see it as a bad thing it's coming back, but I would rather see other shows, like Megas XLR, come back and be finished. .

What's underrated? Family Guy
. I can't tell if you're trolling or not. If a show has prime time airings on at least 4 of the channels I have available, more merchandise than Angry Birds, broadcast by FOX, going 10 seasons strong, AND has only average comedic writing for the most part, I don't think Family Guy can be called overrated. . If you REALLY want to see good adult writing, go look up the Simpsons episodes "Kamp Krusty", "A Streetcar Named Marge", and "Homer the Heretic". Easily the best adult writing of... well anything. The newer seasons aren't bad, not by any means, but when paired up to episodes like these, they don't come close.
1. I should have said that I liked Code Lyoko, but I don't think it's good enough to justify the hype. That dosen't mean it's a bad show though. 2. I said OVERRATED.
Fire is more fun with friends, kids!

@PIkminMonster FUUUUUUUUUUUUU- Sorry, I read that wrong. I never really saw enough of Lyoko to make a proper judgement, so I was really just saying what I know about it, my expectations for it's return, and that I just really want more Megas XLR. . (At least nobody tried to defend Family Guy) . I just watched 2 episodes of Wild Grinders. Not as bad as the show it is based(?) on, Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory, which, ironically, plays during the same time Wild Grinders is. Some pretty good writing , "I can't wait to wait for the time where I can wait around to wait while waiting. Wheeeee." ,and another talking dog. Good animation on physics defying, animated tricks that I really could care less about, but that might be the reason some people watch it.
I have plenty nostalgia for the 90s series but it doesn't hold up as well as I hoped.
But without a doubt its a hard to agrue the best two childern cartoons of the last 20 years are probably gargoyles and Batman the animated series. Those still hold up great today and were written on a whole another level than anything else. The whole DCAU is still the best kids franchise bar none.
WAT!

And you know a show that's underrated: (augh I'm gonna get so much hate for this...) My Gym Partner's a Monkey.
I really enjoyed that show while it was on. And Chowder too.
YES. For me, this was the best Cartoon Network time period. Along with Foster's Lazlo and Flapjack. And My Gym Partner's a Monkey doesn't deserve the hate it gets AT ALL.
