Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Sounds good, but how can I move the thread? 

I looked at some of the videos.  Galaxy Rangers seems pretty good for a kids' show, and I like outer space as much as the next guy, but I doubt I'd give anything in my current list the boot for it.  SilverHawks is frankly too silly a premise judging by what I can see in the intro, and Thundercats ... well, no. 

Gargoyles was one of my favorite shows, but again, I don't know what I'd take off the current list in favor of it. 

I'd be willing to listen to arguments for Fairly OddParents, though.  I suppose Teen Titans would have to go? 

Damn, I thought you could do it. I guess you'l have to ask a mod.

I think the two Avalon arcs put Gargoyles above X-Men and Superman, so at least 7th. The shows above that place are too different to make a good comparison or just better (Batman TAS). That way there will be no battle between Superman and Spiderman supporters.

I've watched 1-2 seasons of Teen Titans recently (thanks, crappy spanish TVs for not buying the entire show!) and despite the differences I think Fairly OddParents is better, but can't we get rid of the Powerpuff Girls instead?

TMNT is the weakest show in the 80's cartoons, IMO. Silverhawks is silly, but Transformers isn't? . It has better animation, epic 80's music and it's not like Transformers has an uber complex plot.

Two or three questions: 

Is it possible to change what forum a thread is in, and if so can you do so or arrange to have it done? 

Why do you feel Captain Planet is top 10 material?

You should have the capacity to edit the thread as the OP. It's been a while since i wasn't a mod so it's hard for me to remember, but under "Edit Thread" there should be a dropdown menu that lets you move it to any other forum in the index.

Personal reasons, mostly. I watched a lot of the greatest that 90s toons had to offer, but Captain Planet was one of the ones that really stuck with me through adulthood. Objectively it has a lot of problems, but it just had such a big impact on me (probably the foundation for how i ended up such a raging pinko Social Democrat :D) that it certainly sticks in there more than objectively better series (the three below it, for starters, along with the Aladdin animated series and probably Freakazoid)

Shit, i forgot the Nicktoons, didn't I?

Okay, 90s redo

1) SWAT Kats
2) The Simpsons
3) Rocko's Modern Life
4) Darkwing Duck
5) Dexter's Laboratory
6) Hey Arnold!
7) Two Stupid Dogs
8) Doug
9) Batman: The Animated Series
10) Captain Planet

I can change title, poll, and games, but don't see how I could change the forum. Someone did it for me, though, so thanks.

Nothing from this decade is good. Have you seen the crap on Cartoon Network? Adventure Time? The art direction alone in new cartoon makes the unwatchable.

2000s
First, about their list:
Wow, I kinda knew Ben 10 was big, but I didn't know it was almost a decade old at this point! South Park belongs in the 90s since that's when it took off, same as Pokemon, as I mentioned above. Also, I have no idea whether the TMNT is as good as they say.

I admit, I have an ulterior motive for putting South Park in a different decade. I have more series to add to the list than series I feel like booting out of a top 10 list. No discussion of cartoons of that era is complete without mention of Invader Zim IMO, and, similarly, no such list is complete on this forum without Kim Possible. RolStoppable will see to that, so I decided to beat him to the punch. Also, Powerpuff Girls.

1.  Futurama (1999-2003, 2008-2013)
2.  Samurai Jack (2001-2004)
3.  Avatar:  The Last Airbender (2005-2008)
4.  Spongebob Squarepants (1999-_)
5.  Family Guy (1999-2002, 2005-_)
6.  Kim Possible (2002-2007)
7.  Invader Zim (2001-2003)
8.  The Venture Bros. (2003-_)
9.  Powerpuff Girls (1998-2004)
10.  Teen Titans (2003-2006)

Below Family Guy? Really? And it should be "2002-2005, 2006-2007" because Disney decided to end it after 65 episodes, but brought it back for another season due to popular fan demand.

I didn't even like enough shows to make a top 10 for any decade. You forgot Dave the Barbarian and Brandy & Mr. Whiskers. Phineas & Ferb probably goes into the 2010s, seeing how the dates seem to be about when the shows were produced, not when they started.

Hmm, I was making allowances for how Family Guy used to be better than it is now, but maybe I overcompensated.

Also, my intention is to go by original air dates, but I haven't been too careful with what I'm copy/pasting.
