I doubt my list has changed much, and I'm not going back to look, but...

Gargoyles
Spectacular Spider-Man
Batman: TAS
The Venture Bros
Avatar: The Last Airbender (Not Korra!)
Cowboy Bebop
Pinky and the Brain
Futurama
Berserk
Darkwing Duck
ExoSquad
Daria
South Park
Harvey Birdman
Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes (first season and a half only)

Avaitor

If I was to add classics, my list would probably look like this

10- The Spectacular Spider-Man
9- Jonny Quest
8- Daria
7- Gargoyles
6- Archer
5- Rocky and His Friends/The Bullwinkle Show
4- King of the Hill
3- Ed, Edd n' Eddy
2- MGM's animated work
1- Looney Tunes

The toughest part was deciding on my top two, honestly. But I really do think that I'm more of a comedy person overall, as much as I love a great action show.
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!

Okay, maybe I don't watch or like enough cartoons, and while I have others they begin with characters I've already used. So, um... okay, this is embarrassing.

I'm kind of surprised that you didn't go with ATLA for your letter A entry.

To be honest, quite a few of my choices are more like shows that I casually enjoy rather than love, and some I haven't even seen since my childhood.

Also, your list reminds me that I still need to get around to ExoSquad one of these days.

LumRanmaYasha

Good lists, guys! The doc and I seem to share quite a few choices.  ;)

That's how I feel about my Q, X, and Z choices, and why I said I had to stretch for those. I feel strongly about everything else I listed, but those three shows I only casually like, though I probably should rewatch XM: E sometime.

Same, and by a fair margin, tbh.

I'm not gonna do a runners-up list, but I'll just say there are a LOT of animated series that begin with either an A, B, M, P, R, or S that I love. Those letters are freakin' stacked!
