Greetings everyone! I have a decently sized collection of cartoon dvds that I watch very frequently. I'm not running out quite yet, but I am always looking to expand and I am hoping to suckle off of your knowledge for some new cartoons to look into.
Values:
- ~11 minute story arcs (60-90 minutes for feature length)
- Self-contained stories
- Quality/unique/humorous animation
- Comedy
- Occasionally, pure nostalgia
Anti-Values:
- Action based cartoons
- Morality preaching cartoons
- Corporate driven cartoons
- Stories that last longer than an episode
- Almost all animation from the 1980s
- The majority of eastern animation
This picture is my collection as of now.

Based on my preferences, please suggest some new titles to look at!
Feel free to be as short or long winded as you like; a simple list or a detailed explanation as to why x cartoon is fantastic or perhaps some clips showcasing the greatness of a particular title.
One other thing to keep in mind is the difference between a cartoon and animation. Not all animation is a cartoon.
I hope that most everyone uses Y! Answers as a way to spread knowledge, but if you're only in it for the points, I will be choosing "Best Answer" based on if someone gives a good suggestion even if it is simple, a bad suggestion if it is thought out, or anything in between.
If you would like to have a bit of a longer chat, please email me at [email protected]
