I think Courage might be the best of the Cartoon Cartoons. Powerpuff Girls was pretty good but vastly overrated in my opinion. Honestly, I can't stomach Mojo any more just from how much they used him in every other episode (at least).

Also, Doug was good... Nothing more than that, really. It was just good.

I'm glad Courage gets so much love around here. But then again, I don't know how well liked it is outside of this site. :D

PPG's overuse of Mojo was nothing compared to Kim Possible's overuse of Drakken and Shego.

Considering the fact CN still periodically rotates it into it's schedule every year despite it having ended over a decade ago, I think it's safe to say it's pretty well liked.

Mojo Jojo's episodes in PPG tended to be my favorites. I think it's really the post-revival episodes that made his overuse seem obnoxious, since he was rather flanderized in those.

That doesn't help your case.
Eh, what can I say, I really grew to dislike Drakken and Shego before long.

I still love Mojo, and I don't think he became that overdone until the end of the show. There were still enough episodes with Him, Fuzzy, the Gangreen Gang, and Princess, among the bunch of one or two-timers besides Mojo until the show started to dip in quality.

That makes sense. Courage just seems underappreciated to me. People usually just mention EEnE, PPG, Dexter, etc. and Johnny Bravo seems to be more loved that Courage and we all know how flawed Johnny is.

I've never been as hot on Courage, but it's always had its fans.

Courage will always be my favorite. :)

Nameless

I don't get why How to Train Your Dragon is so popular. I adore Lilo & Stitch but somehow HTTYD comes up a little short for me. It doesn't feel like the masterpiece many think it is to me. I think I honestly liked The Croods better...mainly because it was prettier, but also because Chris Sanders's warmth and sincerity showed through more there.

Also, the villain in HTTYD2 being the only non-white human character in the whole movie rubbed me the wrong way.

The Divide is a decent episode. I never hated it but the last time I watched it, I liked it and got a few good laughs. People claim its this awful filler episode but I don't see it. I think Book 1's, if not the entire show's worst episode is Cave Of Two Lovers but then again, my Katara hate may be amplifying my hatred of said episode. :sly: Anyway, I can't even think of any other bad filler episodes in Book 1. Just a few slower ones. I may need to rewatch Avatar Day though. This also makes me wonder if Book 3 has the most and/or overall worst set of filler episodes.

The Beach is probably the worst episode of the show to me. The Great Divide is merely boring.

I think the weakest part of Avatar has always been the early episodes of every season. For some reason the staff just jams all kinds of filler in there.

I don't think The Beach was that bad but then maybe I'm too good at watching shows on "cruise control"

I mainly don't like it because it really has no purpose for being there. As a character episode it doesn't work, as a comedy episode it falls flat, and as fanservice it would better served as a fanfic.

I don't think there's anything about it I like.
