Top 10 Worst Cartoons of All Time

Here we list the WORST cartoons EVER AIRED! It was a waste of time and money to make these horrendous cartoons. Consider yourself lucky if you haven't seen these shows.

The Top Ten

Ren and Stimpy Adult Party Cartoon

Ren & Stimpy "Adult Party Cartoon" is an American adult animated comedy television series created by John Kricfalusi. It was produced by Spümcø for TNN/Spike TV and premiered on June 26, 2003. The series was canceled after only three episodes aired, with the remaining episodes released on DVD in 2006... read more

How does this atrocious piece of media rank below any of these shows? Dora may have zero substance, but I believe there is an argument to be made that even Dora can have its moments. This show cannot. It is the most offensive thing I have ever seen, much worse than Family Guy. At least Family Guy has good episodes, an example being the Road to series. But I cannot name an episode from this series that is bearable.
Not only that, but it was based off of a rather good children's cartoon. CHILDREN. Imagine a child seeing Ren and Stimpy pop up on their television screen and, without a second's notice, going to watch it. Now imagine them seeing Ren, a character from a show that was originally for KIDS, torturing a frog to death and making Stimpy sob hysterically because of the abuse that Ren dealt to him.
This show could literally scar a child, and probably has.
Easily the worst thing I have ever seen.
The Problem Solverz

The Problem Solverz is an American animated television series created by Ben Jones that aired on Cartoon Network. The story centers on three detectives named Alfe, Horace, and Roba who operate in the unusual and chaotic town of Farboro.... read more

One thing I learned from modern cartoons is that if the concept is random, the show will suck. Case in point? This show.
Not only is the animation straining and ugly to the human eye, but the plot is also out of place. Other bad shows that follow many of these flaws are Fanboy and Chum Chum, Chop Socky Chooks, and Super Mountain Fort Awesome. I hope there is hope for Cartoon Network.

This show was really bad. At least in Yu-Gi-Oh, Pokemon, or any other low-quality anime on the list, they can actually draw or use computer software to animate it decently.
In this show, the creators can't animate or draw whatsoever. The animation feels like it's on LCD. Amazing World of Gumball looks watchable compared to this, and that's not even watchable either.
Dora the Explorer

Dora the Explorer (2000-2019) is an American animated preschool educational television series created by Chris Gifford, Valerie Walsh Valdes, and Eric Weiner. The show follows Dora, a young Latina girl, as she embarks on adventures with her monkey friend Boots.... read more

Before anyone brings up the "but it's for little kids" argument, keep in mind that there are other cartoons intended for little kids on Nick Jr. and PBS Kids that were a lot better than Dora the Explorer.
I was ten years old when Dora premiered, so I was too old to be in its target demographic. However, I still managed to enjoy other little kid shows on Nick Jr., like Blue's Clues and Little Bill. I even still loved FACE, and I mean the original FACE, not the newer obnoxious one they brought in years later.
The point is, if I managed to enjoy those other Nick Jr. shows, then Dora the Explorer had no excuse. Also, many times her Spanish is very inaccurate. It's like Peggy Hill taught her Spanish.
Breadwinners

Breadwinners is an American animated television series created by Gary "Doodles" DiRaffaele and Steve Borst for Nickelodeon. The show originated as an animated short created in DiRaffaele's apartment in Studio City, Los Angeles, in collaboration with Borst.... read more

Why is South Park ranked number 6 while this piece of trash is at number 119? This disparity makes me want to leave Earth for good and never come back. South Park is genuinely funny, incredibly clever, and by far the superior show.
On the other hand, Breadwinners is abysmal in every category. It has zero redeeming qualities. This so-called "cartoon" centers around two ducks delivering bread. Doesn't sound too bad, right? Well, it gets worse. Every episode features fart jokes and butts! That's it! Before all you Nickelodeon fanboys rage at me, I have seen an episode. I changed the channel immediately afterward, and it nearly made me vomit. Even my friend, who enjoys the show Sanjay & Craig, says this show is horrible. This is as low as a cartoon can get. It only gets laughs from first graders who find fart jokes amusing. Sure, South Park does it, but at least they don't include them in every single episode. This will get no laughs, not even from second graders who love farts and butts.
Bottom Line: -10/10
Sanjay and Craig

Sanjay and Craig is an American animated sitcom that aired on Nickelodeon from May 25, 2013, to July 29, 2016. The show ran for three seasons and 60 episodes.
The series follows a 12-year-old Indian American boy named Sanjay Patel and his best friend, Craig, a talking pet snake. They go on surreal... read more

So, here are some of the "WORST" cartoons that I've ever seen. It's like the bad video games are bad, but the cartoons that we have are something that is lousy and really annoying.

This is one of the worst examples of animation I've ever seen. Okay, I have no problem with gross-out humor, but that's all it relies on, probably because the writers have no taste whatsoever. Additionally, the characters are really unlikable.
Sanjay - The main protagonist. Oh God, his voice is so annoying that you'll want to throw your TV out the window five minutes into the episode. He's one of the most unlikable cartoon characters ever.
Craig - He's another main character. He is less annoying but still irritating.
Noodman - Do I really need to explain?
This show also rips off Regular Show for many reasons. Do not watch!
Teen Titans Go!

'Teen Titans Go!' is an American animated television series produced by Cartoon Network. The show follows a group of teenage superheroes called the Teen Titans as they return home from missions and get into silly, everyday adventures. It is a revival and comedic spin-off of the original 'Teen Titans... read more

Here's the thing: Teen Titans Go has actually had a few decent episodes. Some of them genuinely make me laugh, mostly the older ones. However, a large majority of the show is just flat out gross. The potty humor is way overused, and the morals are horrendous. At least in the 2017 movie, there are some good parts and decent morals in the end, but as for the show itself, there aren't many.
The main characters are almost always unlikable, selfish jerks with no redeeming qualities. Some of the episodes are just repulsive. Examples include the one where everyone thinks Beast Boy has turned into a disgusting mutant-bug creature and everyone vomits throughout the whole episode, the one where Starfire gets a parasite, or the one where everyone turns into "fart zombies." Seriously, what were the writers thinking? Like I said, a few of the older episodes are decent, but this show has overstayed its welcome at this point. It had potential, but the writers ruined it.
The Nutshack

The Nutshack is an American adult animated sitcom created by Ramon Lopez and co-created by Jesse Hernandez. The show premiered in 2007 and is known for being one of the first animated series to feature Filipino-American characters. It was produced by MTV Philippines and aired on Myx TV in the United... read more

The Vietnamese transgender character, Cherry Pie, could be considered offensive to actual transgender people, as she is portrayed as nothing more than a stereotypical feminine "lady-boy" that makes everyone around her very uncomfortable. The Indian convenience store owner, Sanjee, is also a stereotype, much like Apu from The Simpsons, but worse because there is no charm to him whatsoever.
Speaking of Indian stereotypes, this show is offensive to Indian people because they are referred to as "nasty little curry eaters." Rainbow Scout is a stereotypical buff gay man who enjoys anal sex and cannot stop talking about it.
Family Guy

Family Guy is an American adult animated sitcom created by Seth MacFarlane for the Fox Broadcasting Company. The series centers on the Griffins, a family consisting of Peter, Lois, their children Meg, Chris, and Stewie, and their anthropomorphic dog, Brian. The show is set in the fictional city of Quahog... read more

My hatred for Family Guy knows no bounds. It is filled with stupid cutaway gags, gross humor, and preachiness from Seth MacFarlane.
All of the characters on the show are unlikable, especially Brian, and they are stereotypes of sitcom characters. Pretty much everyone on this show is either a complete moron or a jerk, often both. Some moments, like the three-minute Conway Twitty cutaway gag and the scene with the raccoon chewing on Stewie's brain, are unbearable to watch.
This show is nothing but a vehicle for Seth MacFarlane to make pop culture references, offend as many people as possible, and shove his liberal beliefs down your throat. We get it, Seth! You think that everyone who has a religion or votes Republican is stupid and evil!
All of these things wouldn't be a problem if the show was actually funny. It's not. If you like pure randomness with a paper-thin plot, bland characters, liberal lecturing, and jokes that run for way too long, this is the show for you.
Caillou

Caillou is a Canadian educational children's television series based on books by Hélène Desputeaux. The show premiered on Teletoon in both English and French on September 15, 1997. It later aired on Treehouse TV, where its final episode was broadcast on October 3, 2010.... read more

Caillou is a spineless 4-year-old child who does not deserve love, family, compassion, food, or organs. Yes, this is from another review, but it is complete truth. For God's sake, he can't even catch a baseball. He gives up right away. Just like Bob's Burgers, it is marketed for chubby 6-year-olds.
The only people who could possibly ever love this show, or at least the demon child known as Caillou, are fans of Bob's Burgers or kids who don't know any better. There is no character to love, let alone like. This is the problem with today's shows. Shows like Caillou and Bob's Burgers focus on one set of characters, and this overemphasis is what leads us to hate the characters. Even Ted Cruz, in Miss Spider's Sunny Patch, has something to love.
Johnny Test

Johnny Test is an American-Canadian animated television series produced by Warner Bros. Animation for its first season and by Cookie Jar Entertainment and DHX Media for the remainder of its original run. It aired from September 17, 2005, to December 25, 2014, on Kids' WB and Cartoon Network in the United... read more

Why is Phineas and Ferb ranked above this? Phineas and Ferb is at least not a rip-off of Dexter's Lab.
Johnny Test is what happens when Dee Dee is given her own show and is a boy. Johnny is a selfish jerk who does whatever he wants and breaks into his sisters' lab. His sisters are selfish and boring, having half the personality that a normal cartoon character has.
The characters are all jerks, and the show is always blasting guitar riffs. The show's humor is terrible, and almost every episode is a rip-off. None of the episodes are original. The show doesn't even try to be original and is ripping off classic cartoons like Tom and Jerry and Scooby-Doo.
The villains are generic parodies (like Mr. Freeze and Darth Vader) that aren't funny, and the show's plots are predictable.

The Newcomers

?
Harley Quinn (Animated Series)

Foul-mouthed, hyper-sexual, and violent trash that pushes woke/political agendas and ruins favorite DC characters big time.
?
Velma

I don't need to explain why this show is so hated: bad comedy, bad satire, flanderized characters, bad romance, bad plot, and Velma is ridiculously detestable in this show. It's really ironic considering Velma is an adult cartoon, yet the characters are more immature than their counterparts from past Scooby-Doo cartoons.
The only things worth praising are the animation and character designs. Not that this could save the show, but I feel that Velma would have been okay if it had been its own thing. This show is just bad. Don't watch it unless you survive off cringy jokes and detestable characters.

This is one of the worst TV shows ever created, animated or not! How is it not in the Top 10 yet? It doesn't appeal to anybody. All it does is insult fans of Scooby Doo and adults who watch animation.
The overall writing is abysmal too. Mindy Kaling also inserted herself as Velma for "representation". Safe to say her own people hated it.
"Velma" is worse than Ren and Stimpy: Adult Party Cartoon! Anf it deserves more hate than the former!

The Contenders

Allen Gregory

Allen Gregory is an American animated sitcom that aired on Fox from October 30 to December 18, 2011, on Sundays at 8:30 pm. The series was created by Jonah Hill, Andrew Mogel, and Jarrad Paul. It starred Jonah Hill as the voice of the title character, a pretentious seven-year-old boy.

This cartoon just offended me. Its protagonist is an egotistical seven-year-old who looks down on everyone he sees, including his own sister. Its message is that everyone who is not like Allen Gregory deserves to be put down. Not to mention the way it portrays taboo topics, such as sexual attraction to an elderly woman. It feels like the creators wanted to disgust the viewer as much as possible.

This is one of the worst shows of all time. The only reason it's not number one is because no one knows it exists. This list shows bias because not everyone has seen all these shows.
The show only had seven episodes, and they were all horrible. If everyone rating this saw the show, it would probably be number one. Fortunately, it was so bad that no one knows it exists. Unfortunately, it's because no one knows just how bad it truly is that it's not number one.
Almost Naked Animals

Almost Naked Animals is a Canadian animated television series produced for YTV. The series premiered on January 7, 2011. It features animals wearing only underwear who run a tropical resort hotel and often get into bizarre and comedic situations.

The title alone is unappealing and nasty. The animal characters appear to look like they're shaved and only wear underwear. Speaking of the characters, they all look ugly and uncanny. Some animal characters who don't have fur or feathers, like Octo and Narwhal, would presumably have their skin peeled from the shaving instead. The gross-out humor is just not funny at all. The theme song is really annoying and repetitive. Even the background music is annoying too. The animation is mediocre. Howie's smile just looks hideous to look at. The designs of every episode's title card are very creepy and uncanny. The characters are very unlikable, especially Howie. Also, the voice acting is bland.
Uncle Grandpa

Uncle Grandpa was an American animated surreal comedy television series created by Peter Browngardt for Cartoon Network that ran from September 2, 2013, to June 30, 2017. The series is based on Browngardt's animated short of the same name from The Cartoonstitute. It features a surreal style and follows... read more

It's disappointing to see one of the writers responsible for many episodes of the SpongeBob series move on to this show. Casey Alexander wasn't the best writer on SpongeBob by any means, but he was certainly better than some of the others. It's a shame to see how poor this new show is.
I see some sort of relationship between Patrick Star and Uncle Grandpa. They're both unintelligent and have similarly obnoxious voices. However, having an entire show with the main character being that annoying, along with secondary characters that make absolutely no sense, is hard to stomach. Characters like Pizza Steve and the tiger, who doesn't say anything but growls and mimics Nyan Cat, are especially perplexing. I've only watched a few episodes of the series, but from what I've seen, it's clear that Uncle Grandpa is a huge flop.
Mr. Pickles

Mr. Pickles is an American animated television series created by Will Carsola and Dave Stewart for Adult Swim. The series follows the Goodman family, particularly their six-year-old son Tommy, and their border collie, the demonic Mr. Pickles.... read more

Don't get me wrong, I love animals, especially dogs and cats. One of my favorite dog breeds is definitely the Border Collie. So, when I first heard of this cartoon, I thought, "A satanic Border Collie? That's so awesome! What's he going to do, fight off abusive owners with demonic powers?" Then I saw the first episode and I was wrong. It's pretty much one of those "we're going to show you a lot of shock humor and sex jokes" kind of adult cartoons, which ruins the potential it's aiming for.
I liked most of the backgrounds, but only when the nice country backdrops are shown and not the blood-filled hellscapes. And the animation, oh God. This cartoon is almost like what the emo/metalhead kid in your high school drew in his notebooks, in animation form.
Phineas and Ferb

Phineas and Ferb is an American animated comedy-musical television series. It was initially previewed on August 17 and September 28, 2007, before officially premiering on February 1, 2008. The series ended on June 12, 2015, after a successful run on Disney Channel.... read more

I will admit, I liked this show a lot at the beginning. But lately, they've run out of ideas. It was creative at first - building a roller coaster, searching for Atlantis, making a haunted house, and lots of other stuff. But now they've gone on spaceships five times, among other things, like making a house of cheese.
Also, there aren't even 104 days of summer. Furthermore, there have been like 200 episodes, so that's over 104 days. The only good part of the show is Perry and Doofenshmirtz. But even they are running out of ideas. They should just stop the series. And the catchphrases get tiring after so many episodes.

I think I've seen enough episodes of this particular show to say it doesn't require much attention to know exactly what's going on. All the episodes are the same. There's hardly any variation from the norm.
The two boys make some wild invention. The sister tries to get them caught but fails and is ultimately deemed insane by their mother. Oh yes, the pet platypus is a secret agent and always stops the villain. Throw a song in there, and that's what it takes to make an episode of this show.
It isn't particularly clever in any way, so it confuses me how much people like it and regard it as something worthwhile.
Mega Babies

Mega Babies is a Canadian animated series created by brothers Christian and Yvon Tremblay. The duo previously worked on the Hanna-Barbera show SWAT Kats: The Radical Squadron before launching Mega Babies, which focuses on the wild adventures of three infant protagonists.

The fact that My Little Pony is rated above this baffles me. This cartoon is disgusting, the animation is terrible, and the characters are annoying. Imagine Ren and Stimpy, Rugrats, and Powerpuff Girls all thrown into a blender. The result would be this.

Wrong. Ren and Stimpy is toilet humor. Now, mix that toilet humor into Rugrats, a cartoon about babies, and add Powerpuff Girls, three young girls with superpowers. Mega Babies are babies with superpowers that feature toilet humor.

The gross-out humor is overused. The color scheme is just bland.
The character designs are really ugly and hideous. The plot is pointless. Also, the voice acting is ear-grating. Babies would cry after watching this atrocity.
12 oz. Mouse

12 oz. Mouse is an American adult animated television series created by Matt Maiellaro for Cartoon Network's late-night programming block, Adult Swim. The series combines surreal humour, black comedy, psychological thriller, mystery, and action elements, and revolves around Mouse Fitzgerald, nicknamed... read more

I swear, a five-year-old could make a better show. Do you remember when you were younger and you would turn on the computer just to go on MS Paint? I think the developers are too nostalgic for those moments, seriously. They talk like they're drunk and learning to speak, and the "animations" are just pictures they drew in MS Paint.

The animation of 12 oz. Mouse looks like the first few animals I ever drew that weren't just a scribble of lines in different colors. Adult Swim hosts amazing content like Rick and Morty and the Toonami reboot. This will be one of the worst shows on Adult Swim for years to come.
Go, Diego, Go!

Go, Diego, Go! is an American animated educational interactive children's television program that originally aired on the Nickelodeon cable network in the United States. It was produced by Nickelodeon Animation Studio and premiered on September 6, 2005. The show is a spin-off of Dora the Explorer and... read more

I have an anti-fan fiction of Diego. After the last episode of Diego, he gets a call from businessmen. They want to build a 200-lane freeway and a metropolis on all of South America. Diego accepts. Later, Diego is getting chased by animals because he accepted the deal. They surround him. The last sign of Diego was a yell that was 19,999 hertz loud, which is almost outside the human hearing threshold.

Diego is pretty much like Dora. It's the same thing every episode. I've noticed the Bobo Bros. are rip-offs of Swiper, only they are less stealing-oriented.
South Park

South Park is an American adult animated sitcom created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone for the Comedy Central television network. The show centers on four boys: Stan Marsh, Kyle Broflovski, Eric Cartman, and Kenny McCormick, and their adventures in the fictional town of South Park, Colorado. It's known... read more

Easily the worst show to ever disgrace existence. It tries way too hard with shock value, along with dry, immature, and unfunny humor (that's Canadian humor for you though). The characters are bland, boring, and annoying, with no real personalities to speak of. The plots and stories are uninteresting.
Of course, the "animation" is absolutely atrocious, but that goes without saying. The show tries to play it all off by teaching some kind of "lesson" at the end of each episode, but it's so poorly executed that it ends up doing more harm than good. It effectively only appeals to stoners and teenage children, which also doesn't take half a brain to figure out something is wrong with our community. All of these fans seem to worship this show, and seriously, they can choke slowly on the contents of my septic tank and piss.
Horrible show, horrible influences. You're better off watching something higher on this list than this gutter trash.
Peppa Pig

Peppa Pig is a British preschool animated television series created by Astley Baker Davies in association with Entertainment One. The show originally premiered on May 31, 2004. It went on a hiatus for just over two years and returned with new episodes on February 14, 2015.

I have to put up with this awful show every time I visit my baby sister-in-law. Everyone looks like a potato head with Peter Griffin bodies and paintbrush limbs. The animation style seems inspired by a five-year-old or something else stupid. This show should be called "How to Ruin Your Shoes, Fat Shame People, Pretend You Are Old, and Bully Your Little Brother."
Animators must have thought, "I know! Let's get a red plastic bowl, flip it upside down, stick a whistle on top with pink paint, and put googly eyes on it. Then let's put paintbrushes on it and make it 2D because we're lazy and we don't care how bad this show is! And let's call Google to make it trending on YouTube to burn people's eyes out!"
The Adventures of Paddy the Pelican

Wow, this show is great. Not! I only watched about 45 seconds of it and it was extremely boring. It should be ranked with Breadwinners. At least that was entertaining to kids, despite the excessive gross-out humor.
This intro has some guy laughing weirdly. The lip-syncing is terrible and looks lazy.
The animation is awful and keeps looping.
This looks like it was made on a one dollar budget. Children might fall asleep after watching 20 seconds of this.
Why are Looney Tunes and Tom and Jerry on this list? I grew up with those. They are way better than this show, and with or without color, they were amazing.
Also, I respect your opinion if you don't like some shows.
King Star King

King Star King is an American animated web series created by JJ Villard and Eric Kaplan for Adult Swim. The series premiered on the network's online video streaming service Adult Swim Video on June 15, 2014. Known for its surreal and violent humor, it later aired on Adult Swim's television channel.

This is just a completely ugly cartoon. The characters look like they're melting in front of your eyes and are completely uninteresting. The colors clash with each other, the plot makes no sense, and the animation is choppy. I guarantee this will make you sick.

How is this not higher on the list? The animation is ugly as heck. I can barely tell what's going on most of the time, and it makes no sense whatsoever. Avoid at all costs. Trust me, you'll regret it for the rest of your life.

I am being totally sincere when I say "Sofia the First" is more mature than this show.
Secret Mountain Fort Awesome

Secret Mountain Fort Awesome is an American animated television series created by Peter Browngardt that debuted in 2011 on Cartoon Network. The show revolves around a group of five monstrous misfits who unleash chaos from their mountain hideout.... read more

Hey kids, do you like looking at unattractive images? Do you like animation that looks like it was taken out of a very ugly search-and-find book? Do you like characters who are made out of butts, snot, and wear nothing but underwear? Are bright and contrasting colors your thing? Well, we have the show for you! The charts show that gross-out humor is absolutely hip and with it! And no plot at all can compete with the likes of Adventure Time and Gravity Falls. Our humor is all gross-out, and we try our best to make the most unattractive things look even uglier! We know this is nothing but a pile of garbage, but you don't care about that. No effort means money! Lots and lots of money! So buy our stuff!
My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic is an animated children's television series based on the fourth incarnation of Hasbro's My Little Pony franchise. The show follows a studious unicorn, later transformed into an alicorn, named Twilight Sparkle (voiced by Tara Strong) and her friends Applejack (Ashleigh... read more

It's a show that has everything a stereotypical girl show contains. It talks about friendship and all that crap. The voices are awful. Everyone sounds like they were voice-acted by two people. The animation isn't bad. In fact, it's one of the better Flash animations I've seen.
However, it hurts to say this since I adore Lauren Faust's works, but the art style is ugly. The backgrounds look like they were drawn by a 12-year-old who watches way too many bad anime. I couldn't care less about the music department. It's bland. It uses too many media references like video games and nerd flicks for me to enjoy. I get that some writers like those kinds of things. Overall, it's just another show.
Do I like it? Obviously not. Do I hate it? Not as much as I hate Lucky Star. I don't really enjoy it because this kind of stuff is not my taste.
Pickle and Peanut

Pickle and Peanut is an American animated television series that premiered on Disney XD on September 7, 2015. The show was created by Noah Z. Jones, who also created the series Fish Hooks and Almost Naked Animals. It follows the adventures of two best friends navigating absurd and surreal experiences... read more

This is the worst Disney show I've ever seen, and it's the perfect foreshadowing for one of the worst animated series ever. The theme song is lazy. It has no music and is literally just random words. The art style is awful. The main characters are just photoshopped images.
The trend in modern cartoons needs to end! The characters are not lovable. You'll want to punch them. The main characters are barely drawn. They're literally stock images. In one episode, Pickle gets a pimple on his butt. The show has nonstop butt jokes.
Is this Disney? It is, but in an alternate dimension! Disney should be embarrassed for greenlighting this trash. They are known for The Lion King, for crying out loud. What happened to the Toon Disney shows? They were awesome. Avoid this show at all costs. If you find a DVD of it, destroy it and don't show it to your kids. Stay away!
