Aside from comic books and Republicans, there are few things more respected in the United States of America than animated television programming. Every warm blooded citizen of all ages tunes in to watch their favorite cartoon show. They offer us witty political commentary, seething satire, and accurate historic information. The following is a list of America's greatest cartoons; these are progressive and revolutionary toons that changed the way American's thought.
#8: Turbo TeenBrett Matthews was an average teenager when his car swerved off a road during a thunder storm and crashed into a top secret government laboratory where he was exposed to an experimental beam that fused him with his car. Whenever he's exposed to extreme heat, man and car fuse together and he becomes the amazing
TURBO TEEN.

Turbo Teen was THE definition of the American Dream; apple pie, action scenes, and fast cars. Brett Matthews was a upstanding, god fearing American who studied hard and imparted his wisdom for the next generation of tykes to heed and grow from. In addition to the clever plotlines and tight scripting, Turbo Teen introduce the world to the first broadcast interracial relationship.

#7 Mighty Max
(so young, so vulnerable...)
A word of advice, fellow readers. If you find a baseball cap with your first initial printed on it, please wear it. You may become the "chosen one" fated to save our world. You may be teamed up with a barbarian who rips and shreds every perceived threat. You could be paired up with a talking bird who happens to be a walking encyclopedia.

But most importantly, you could be a fast talking, athletic, and quick thinking Caucasian boy with plot armor and moxie.
If you find a baseball cap with your first initial printed on it... please, for the sake of our world and our fine country... WEAR IT. Cherish it.

(Max also made a guest appearance in The Secret of Evermore as the leading character)
And never forget.
#6 Butt Ugly MartiansI don't think anyone watched Butt Ugly Martians.

Which is a crying shame because it's the best computer generated technology has to offer us. What appears to be a marketing push to release cheap toys that tie into a poorly animated series is actually a touching story about immigration. You see, the BUM are from another planet (presumably Saturn but considering their
Butt ugly it's probably Uranus) and they wish to blend in with the American populace. Unfortunately, their brethren wish to force their way into America instead of learning about our history and becoming naturalized citizens.
(watch them morph into BKM mode where they fight for freedom and promote courage *sniff*)
At the end of every episode, the BUM defeat their invading fellows and teach the children watching that it's okay to be different... as long as you try your hardest to blend in with everyone else.
#5 Bots MasterFor the first time in the world, two of America's greatest loves where combined in holy matrimony; rapping and robots.
No introduction necessary; no discussion needed. If you do not like robots and if you do not like rap, you're either a tone deaf Luddite or a communist.
Do not tell me you're the latter.
#4 CroAllow me to regale you with the creation of our Earth. About a hundred years ago, a genie riding a dinosaur rose from the primordial ooze, nodded her head, and created the animals, humans, and nations that defined our history.
Cro is the story of creation; a tale, told from the perspective of a woolly mammoth, about an intelligent Cro-Magnon educating the ignorant Neanderthals while battling dinosaurs and sabretooth tigers. Continuing our progressive cartoon theme, Cro was
the first creationist cartoon.

Even now, to this day, no other studio has recalled the birth of our world more accurately than Cro.
#3 Biker Mice From MarsThis is a war story.
(The theme song depicting the war against terror and corruption)
This is a war story about three mice, fighting a battle in a foreign land and returning home with injuries.

(each mouse carries their own injuries from the Martian war against terror; they kick butt and look FABULOUS while doing it)
The people hate them. Their neighbors spit on them. Their family turned their back on them. In response, the biker mice rode away into the sunset; always fighting, always defending, and never forgetting. This is a series that addresses the concern every American has; should I honor my country's soldiers even though they are no better than rapists and murderer's?
This editor says yes.

Biker Mice from Mars.
Mice ride together. Mice die together. BIKER MICE FOR LIFE.#2 Young King ArthurOkay, you know how when you're taking a poop and you start wiping but you get that bubbling feeling in your guts but you continue wiping anyways? Then, right when the paper comes out of your butt hole clean, you begin to relax and more poop slides out.

It's not a lot of poop... maybe a 3 or 4 on a 10-scale poop rating. But still, you just wasted several feet of tissue paper making sure your butthole is clean but now there's a fresh line of poop staining the inner linings of your rectum and you
have to clean it.

*Sigh* I hate it when this happens.
#1: Widget the World WatcherHere it is, the ultimate American cartoon. The animated series that all children should watch.

In the early 90s, Generation X realized that the Baby Boomer's screwed up the earth and it was time for a change! Widget, a purple alien from outer space, is a shape changing alien who fights against poachers and pollution. While most kids learned how to save the environment from Captain Planet, Widget was more progressive than that for you see, Widget was the first character to support gay rights.

(Widget seen with his lover battling against an oppressive Intolerobot)
His purple color scheme symbolizes royalty as in being
royally gay. His neck rings symbolize unity; two rings being the unity between two men. His tail, an upside down 'M' (and not a 'W' as many think) means "Man-on-Man" proving that Widget isn't afraid to be true to himself.

As a shapeshifter, Widget had the power to assume various forms to battle evil and promote same sex relationships; an octopus, with the power to hug and squirt prismatic ink; A robotic commando who battles against adversity; a rapping pee wee baseball coach who teaches young boys it's alright to one with your inner gay; a four armed monster with a pink bow proving that even the ugliest lovers can share a tender moment; And a hulking one eyed beast symbolizing the ferocity of intimate intercourse.
(this theme song reeks of
FABULOUS)
We Americans salute you Widget. You were years ahead of the pack.
