Best Cartoon Network Shows of 2016

The Top Ten
1 Steven Universe Steven Universe is an American animated television series created by Rebecca Sugar for Cartoon Network. The show's based around a young boy by the name of Steven Universe, who is a hybrid of a gem and a human. He lives with his gem friends, Garnet, Amethyst and Pearl.

This show is so well put together and creative, it has everyone's favorite themes including drama, adventure, comedy, and action! The suspense is to die for and not to mention the songs, oh how beautiful they are (the best is "stronger than you", of course that is in my opinion)they really bring out the characters true selves. All of the characters have their own personality traits, Pearl is dramatic and doesn't treat herself to the fullest, Amethyst is funny, lazy, and emotional, Garnet is mysterious Powerful and a fusion, Steven is loving, kind, and is half human half gem, Connie is his (Girl) friend and trains with pearl to use a sword, Peridot was at first loyal to the evil Yellow diamond but was abandoned with the crystal gems and soon after that became one of them, Lapis Lazuli is loyal to Steven, Peridot's crush and not officially a Crystal Gem yet but is living with them, Rose is a flirt when it comes to humans but eventually found her match with Greg, Rose gave up her physical form to create Steven, and finally lion, Lion is Steven's pet. he was found in the dessert and has a magic main! That is all the spoilers I'm allowed to put on this website, however if you want to learn more you should totally watch the show.

2 Pokemon: XY & Z

Pokemon XY and Z has been a pretty great series. It shows a side of Ash that we haven't really seen and it gets pretty deep. So far I'm loving it because he's actually matured after all these years.

World wonderful cartoon

3 Adventure Time Adventure Time is an American animated television series created by Pendleton Ward for Cartoon Network. The series follows the adventures of a boy named Finn (voiced by Jeremy Shada) and his best friend and adoptive brother Jake (voiced by John DiMaggio)—a dog with the magical power to change shape ...read more.

Adventure Time went a little downhill in Season 6 but Season 7 had been completely awesome so far! I think it has regained its title of CN's best show. Especially with Regular Show's declining quality and Steven Universe's hiatus.

I love Adventure Time I'm sad it's getting cancelled this year I'm gonna miss it.

Adventure time is so creative and funny they really need a come back

I'm sad that adventure time will end. I wish it could have like... 10 or 12 seasons? Hehe..

4 Regular Show Regular Show is an American animated television series created by J. G. Quintel for Cartoon Network that premiered on September 6, 2010. The series revolves around the lives of two friends, a blue jay named Mordecai and a raccoon named Rigby—both employed as groundskeepers at a local park.

This show's jokes are just the best and the characters' developments are cool as well.

It's way better than adventure time sadly it is getting cancelled this January 2017

I loved Regular Show why are all the good Shows ending or cancelled.

Ya I also miss Thomas

5 The Amazing World of Gumball The Amazing World of Gumball is a British-Australian-German-American-Irish children's animated television series created by Ben Bocquelet for Cartoon Network.

When people say this not a good cartoon... kill them. I've been watching this ever since it came out. They make the plot in a funny, weird and interesting way that other cartoons don't have. Say whatever I love this

This is my favorite show. It's so unique and there is a plot for every episode( unlike Teen Titans Go). I think season 4 is the best so far(my favorite episode is the Kids).

Th is show is so good. I can't stop watching it. It's my show conditions favorite next to Steven Universe which I already voted for.

When ever I saw season 1 I was barley intrested but when the other seasons premired it was so good now I'm 9 but I heard this show is getting cancelled like adventure time

6 Star vs. the Forces Of Evil "Star vs. the Forces of Evil" is an American animated television comedy produced by Disney Television Animation for Disney XD. It was created by Daron Nefcy and developed by Jordana Arkin and Dave Wasson. The series follows teenage magical princess from the dimension of Mewni Star Butterfly and her teenage human roommate and best friend from Earth Marco Diaz as they live their daily lives, go on adventures in other dimensions, and try to prevent the forces of evil from stealing Star's magic wand. The first episode aired on January 18, 2015 on Disney Channel but its first season officially premiered on Disney XD on March 30, 2015 and ended on September 21, 2015. The second season premiered on ...read more.

I love this show because it has a female lead. I also like that she is rebellious and a lot of the stuff she does is wrong, but you still like her and learn with her. I like how the relationship between Marco and Star progressed, too. The show started out boring, but as the characters developed the show got better.

Where can I start? Everything about this show is awesome! To the story then the characters, the humor and the heartbreak, it's one of my favourite cartoons!

This show is from Disney not Cartoon Network.

7 We Bare Bears An animated comedy show by Daniel Chong about three different species of bears - Grizzly, Panda and Ice bear (polar bear). Since they were little, they wanted to get adopted by owners separately. But then they missed each other too much, so they reunited again. Now as adults, they now live in a cave ...read more.

I love this shows who doesn't love these guys there so funny my favorite is ice bear

I never get addicted of watching ANY cartoons aside from Spongebob which also isn't for so long. But this show definitely caught my attention and it's my new addiction. I just wish they have more episodes.

I love this show. I resemble Panda in many ways since we both love anime and manga, technology, and girls...and we both draw

This show has demonic messages (look at pandas phone and zoom in, there is a 3 digit number and the numbers are all the same)

8 Lego Ninjago

Why is this in twice.

9 Mighty Magiswords Mighty Magiswords is an American Flash animated fantasy-comedy television series created by Kyle A. Carrozza specifically for Cartoon Network Video, being as the network's first online original series.

Creative show put together by a guy who has been putting this show into work since high school. I love drawing Vambre and Simone, and I was Vambre for Halloween. The swords are excellent too!

It's very fast paced and weird but I think it has a lot of heart and good animation.

10 SpongeBob SquarePants SpongeBob SquarePants is an American animated television series created by marine biologist and animator the late Stephen Hillenburg for Nickelodeon. SpongeBob is currently the most popular show on Nickelodeon, as well as the longest running show, running for 23 years, and is beginning its 13th season. The show revolves around a sea sponge called SpongeBob SquarePants and his adventures under the sea. The show is considered to be one of the best Nickelodeon and cartoon shows of all time.

This should be at the top of the list. Spongebob Square pants and his crew has been the funniest cartoon group ever created on Nickelodeon.

I love SpongeBob but it's Nickelodeon not Cartoon Network.

The nickelodeon show should be at the top of the list

Best CARTOON NETWORK shows. Not Nickelodeon.

The Contenders
11 Mixels Mixels is a 2014 comedy animated television series that aired on Cartoon Network, co-produced by The Lego Group and Cartoon Network Studios.

Is kinda good

12 DC Super Hero Girls
13 Superman
14 Teen Titans Go! 'Teen Titans Go!' is an American animated television series produced by Cartoon Network. The show follows a superhero group called the Teen Titans, and shows what happens when they go home and have silly adventures. This show is Cartoon Network's revival of the popular 2003-2006 American animated television show, 'Teen Titans'.

This show is completely stupid. They don't work together as a team 3/4 of the time. They say some very horrible things to each other. There is no plot to the show. Who ever made this show must have hit their head. They should have kept it like the original. It just makes me so angry, to see the Teen Titans embarrassed like this. Just cancel this show cartoon network. It's not working.

It's stupid and has no story. I think they've died like 6 times and they're jerks to eachother, mainly Robin. I miss the old Teen Titans where they actually worked together, liked eachother, had romance, action, and better animation! Oh and I also liked those hints of anime in it and also the theme song

Teen Titans Go is the best show on Earth. I seriously can't watch one of the episodes without laughing or smiling. I really can't. I try to watch Adventure Time, Pokemon XY & Z and Regular Show. THEY ARE SO BORING! I FALL ASLEEP WATCHING ADVENTURE TIME!

I think is was a BIG mistake to cancel the original Teen Titans. The episodes in this has no plot and even is they do, it makes no sense.

15 Pokemon: Diamond and Pearl: Sinnoh League Victors

Pokemon Sinnoh League Victors is Pretty Good! I could vote for this!

16 Clarence Clarence is an American animated television series created by Skyler Page for Cartoon Network. The series revolves around a young boy named Clarence and his two best friends Jeff and Sumo. Page, a former storyboard artist for Adventure Time and revisionist for Secret Mountain Fort Awesome, developed the series at Cartoon Network Studios as part of their shorts development program in 2012.

I watched episode 1 but I found it boring it's not the best Cartoon in the world but Clarence can have funny moments.

I would rather watch this show instead of Teen Titans Go. Even though it usually doesn't have a plot, it has some good humer.

I'm not sure how people really feel about Clarence it's not really loved or hated

The best show ever for kids and adults who have a specific sense of humor

17 Lego Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu

I've watch this show from the beginning like star wars and its amazing! It has well put together characters and they never run out of ideas to expand the series. SO PUMPED FOR THEIR OWN LEGO MOVIE WITH JACKIE CHAN AS SENSEI WU!

I love this program it's so interesting but I'm disappointed at season 7 it's literally 1 episode that finishes the season. But still waiting for season 8 now

I lobe this show they are so funny and there awesome ninjas who fight bad guys and even has some romance in it. Who doesn't love that?

I love the person who put this on the list

18 Looney Tunes Looney Tunes is an American animated series of comedy short films produced by Warner Bros. from 1930 to 1969 during the golden age of American animation, alongside its sister series Merrie Melodies.

It's a classic but that version are you talking about.

19 The Powerpuff Girls The Powerpuff Girls is an American animated television series created by animator Craig McCracken for Cartoon Network. The main characters of this show are Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup. The show is about the Professor Utonium creating three little superhero girls that save the day from villains. ...read more.

They should have made them grown up like teenagers and call it the powerpuffs are back or something like that and have blossom date brick and they move out of the proffesors house

2016 version or Powerpuff Girls isn't the best but at least they didn't completely change it like with Teen Titans Go

This show is actually really good and a little funny but I still think that its good

This show was actually Pretty good...Even though 2016 was bad...But the 2016 beats TTG hard

20 Teen Titans Teen Titans is an American animated television series created by Glen Murakami, based on the DC Comics characters of the same name.

This show is definitely much better than teen titans go! It's much more serious and they work together really well. They are unique and very talented too! It's also funny and isn't so dumb like the new version. I love this show!

The money they put into Teen Titans Go could being going towards a new season of this show. Teen Titans Go is a joke.

This show ended therefore it's not still not airing (*cries*)

We want it back #2017 cartoon network

21 The Loud House The Loud House is an American animated television series created by Chris Savino for Nickelodeon. The series revolves around the chaotic suburban everyday life of a boy named Lincoln Loud and his ten sisters, to which he survives as the middle child and only son in a large family of eleven children. ...read more.

Whoever put this on, What part of "This is Nickelodeon" do you not understand?

This show is gay and dumb and retarded and gay. And it's nickelodeon which is gay. Gay. Do you know da wae?

This is nickelodeon first of all. And this show is the worst.

This show sucks. And it does not come on Cartoon Network.

22 Camp WWE

Wait, Camp WWE on Cartoon Network? This show isn't on Cartoon Network.

23 Infinity Train Infinity Train is an American animated short pilot created by Owen Dennis for Cartoon Network. It follows Tulip and her companion One-One, which is composed by Glad-One and Sad-One, in their journey through a seemingly infinite train with limitless possibilities to find a way to Tulip's home.

Even though there haven't been any official episodes, Infinity Train's mini episode is really creative, funny, and visually appealing. I really enjoyed watching it, and I hope it becomes an official show soon!

24 Tom and Jerry Tom and Jerry is an American animated series of comedy short films created in 1940 by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. Best known for its 161 theatrical short films by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, the series centers on a rivalry between the title characters Tom, a cat, and Jerry, a mouse. Many shorts also ...read more.

What version of Tom and Jerry.

It aired from September 17, 2005 to December 25, 2014 on Kids' WB and Cartoon Network in the United States and on Teletoon in Canada.
