There hasn't been a decent American made TV cartoon that wasn't superhero related made in the last 10 years... period.
The 80's was the best time for American cartoons... with Transformers, GI Joe, Thundercats, Silverhawks, Bravestarr, Masters of the Universe, Ghostbusters, The Real Ghostbusters, and countless others.
The early 90's wasn't bad either... with King Arthur and the Knights of the Round, The New Adventures of He-Man, Highlander: The Animated Series, X-Men, Iron Man, Spider-Man, Batman: The Animated Series, and what not.
Not even the modern Superhero cartoons can compare to that... though they are the only ones I would withhold my disdain for modern American cartoons from.
When Cartoon Network started making weird shows... it was the beginning of the end... and as soon as Sponge Bob came along, everything was down hill from there... I mean... I collect old 80's and early 90's cartoons on DVD, jsut so that when I have kids they can watch good cartoons that aren't stand alone Disney films... and thats just sad.

The 90s sure were epic, especially X-Men. That was the best cartoon series I've ever seen, and I was one of those kids who never read the comic book beforehand. Granted, I didn't understand bits and pieces of the show back then and the underlying themes like prejudice and all that, but it was still awe-inspiring.
Spiderman and Batman were slightly less cool, but still cool all the same.

Animaniacs, Ren and Stimpy, the early Simpsons, Earthworm Jim, Freakazoid, Transformers, ReBoot, Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors, Spider-Man and the X-Men were my faves back in the day.
Batman: The Animated Series was simply the best for me though.

Man, you've mentioned two of my favorite cartoons. I miss the good old days when I watched ReBoot, though I have faint memories of it. I remember an episode when they added a parody of "Evil Dead" in one of the episodes.

ReBoot was cancelled over here soon after Enzo and the girl lost in the Mortal Kombat episode, ITV thought that it was getting too dark for kids and stopped showing it as a result. I was gutted to find out that they went to make another series but cancelled it after a few episodes. There are online campaigns to bring it back and there were reports that it was making a comeback which I hope it does but I've not heard anything for a few months.
Other classic shows I've remembered are Danger Mouse, Dastardly and Muttley in their Flying Machines, Wacky Races and Tom & Jerry.
