I underestimate how popular Foster's was.
You underestimate how popular the girl is
Foster's doesn't have good MCs. No, Frankie is not part of the main gang.
Mac and Wilt aren't that bad
People either love or hate Bloo, there's no in between.
Will is perhaps the most beloved character in the entire show, Frankie coomer fans aside.
Coco was memorable, especially in the 'lol randumb xD' era of that time.
Mac and Eduardo (aside from his design) are pretty meh though, yeah.
Foster's is a brilliant show created by the Powerpuff Girl creator. So yes, it was very smart and well-made.
>that massive disparity between AT and Flapjack
Jeez, it wasn't that bad
AT lasted for about a decade and was super popular in the early 2010s. It's not that surprising it won since people are more likely to remember AT.
It’s not fair, Flapjack bros. Adventure Time was never good.
Nah it was good in the early days, because it had Flapjack staff working on it. After they left, AT went up its ass and spiraled downwards.
Flapjack was never good phoneposter-kun. It paled in comparison to what came before it and only gets held up in high regards because what came after was complete shit (never mind that Flapjack helped spawn that shit).
Both weren't bad. However, AT just came off the CN-Real era of programming. It was a breath of fresh air and a game changer for the next several years of animation.
Flapjack may have been the parent that allowed 20 different content creators to start their own show, but AT was the star child.
Early AT was way more funny than Flapjack.
>EEnE narrowly beat Foster's
I did not expect that.
Foster's was super popular with a younger demographic while it was airing, EEnE was more popular with an older demographic. Most people voting on this poll were probably kids when Foster's premiered, at which point EEnE was already nearing the end of its run. If anything it's a testament to EEnE's enduring popularity that it's still winning over Foster's despite that.
I didn't expect Fosters to give the Eds that much competition
Place your bets on Dexter's Lab vs Courage. It's coming up soon under comedy.
I'm gonna guess Dexter, by a small margin
I think Courage will win. Zoomies still adore it, they don't really remember Dexter.
People I know who grew up in the 90s or early 00s remember Dexter more than Courage. We will see.
Courage is more respected as a show between the two but Dexter's more well-known by the general public, lots of zoomers and people in general still fap to Dexter's mom even to this day.
Courage for quality.
Dexter for fun.
It's not a fair match-up for two different genres. Where's Johnny Test vs Dexter / Courage vs Scooby Doo?
Oh that's not fair, Flapjack never went to shit like Adventure Time did.
That's because Flapjack only lasted for two seasons. AT should have only lasted for two seasons.
Camp Lazlo was turbo shit. Glad my boy Chowder won.
Flapjack is underrated as frick. Never even gave a frick about Adventure Time.
TT over YJ is well deserved. TT has soul for days,
Ed Edd n Eddy are my pick to win it all. How the frick did Foster's put up a fight?
Yeah, how the frick did Foster's resist so much, the show's popular but EEnE is a fricking classic that damn near everyone on Cinemaphile likes.
Frankiegays?
>on Cinemaphile
Well this is from a contest on twitter so the disparity might make more sense. Luckily EEnE is just as well loved outside of Cinemaphile too.
Foster's Home wasn't that popular elsewhere right? It was liked but I've neve gotten the impression it was close to being able to compete with Ed Edd n Eddy in terms of how many fans it has.
Fosters had more episode. moronic Edgay.
I never said Foster sucked or deserved to lose or anything but okay.
Ah right, demographic differences, I guess that would explain it, well sort of, I'd expect the votes for Foster's to be lower in that case since it wouldn't retain as many fans due to them growing up.
In actuality, Foster's was fairly popular while it was airing. It had six seasons, merchandising, a TV movie, and a MMO Flash game that lasted after the show ended. It only seems less popular here because people still remember Bloo being flanderized and the Bendy episode.
Frick off quantity gay.
Fosters had the highest ratings from the channel during its original run, Cheese was Cartoon Network's fricking mascot at some point.
You do realize Fosters is getting rebooted and they made one of their characters a pseudo mascot while their show was airing right? Fosters is one of CN's biggest shows.
>Fosters is getting rebooted
Since fricking when?
It was announced just last year. Craig is coming back for two reboots; a story driven PPG one and a preschool Foster's one.
Ed, Edd, n Eddy is kind of mean-spirited in a way that turns a lot of people off. Billy & Mandy has a similar vibe
Outside of the original pilot movie, Foster's also has a really "mean-spirited" streak to it. The only difference is that it looks more cutesy.
Bloo is kind of a selfish butthole, but it really doesn't compare to how everyone in Ed Edd n Eddy fricking hates the Eds, or how mean Billy, Mandy, and Grimm are to one another. There's also a huge amount of physical violence in those shows that you don't see nearly as much in Foster's.
With EEE they kind of bring it on themselves but i remember the others kids were usually chill with them when they weren’t doing bullshit
B&M is also mainly self inflicted but the universe itself is super wacky and takes no prisoners so it’s nothing personal if a character gets dunked on
Foster’s was generally along the lines of “bloo fricks around and finds out”. The show does have some the outliers were an antagonist wins and/or protagonist loses were what, a whole two or three episodes of an 80 episode show? It was usually pretty sympathetic to Mac, Frankie, Wilt, etc.
Yea, Rolf, Jonny and Nazz were usually friendly to the Eds, unless they got on their bad side. Kevin was actually friendly to Edd when he wasn't around Eddy, Kevin genually hated Eddy no matter what he was doing.
B&M is a character bringing it on themselves, and the universe, in return, fires a shotgun randomly while blindfolded.
Adding to this, the only show i recall where everyone actively hated the main characters for no real reason was catdog. I know it’s Nickelodeon not Cartoon Network but still even other generally unlucky and straight up loser protagonists have some friends to their name. Shit, cat and dog could barely stand each other at points when they weren’t actively apathetic to each others wants and needs (usually dog to cat)
I've never heard anbody describe Ed Edd n Eddy as mean spirited. Yeah I guess the Eds get beat up alot but most of the time it happens to Eddy, who usually deserves it.
>everyone on Cinemaphile likes.
That's the thing, this tournament isn't being held on Cinemaphile. It's being held on Instagram
/co is not representative of the general population.
EEnE has a rabid fan base here but it’s largely due to tribalism. It’s a show about kids who like jawbreakers and try to scam money. It’s fine but people here tend to act like it’s the greatest animated work to ever grace the planet. People remember EEnE but that level of religious devotion doesn’t really exist outside /co.
EEE is just a good show man
Cinemaphile isn't the only place that likes EEnE anon. Most people unanimously agree it was one of Cartoon Network's best shows.
>teen titans won over young justice
heh, nothing personal
Who will beat who based on the other matchups?
Cow and Chicken is a comedy but I Am Weasel is a slice of life?
Taking into account internet and mainstream popularity, combined with longevity.
>Billy and Mandy
>Scooby-Doo
>Steven Universe
>Gumball
>TDI
>Courage
>OK KO
>Justice League
>maybe PPG, this one's kind of close
>Craig of the Creek
>maybe My Gym Partner?
>We Bare Bears
Billy and Mandy v. KND is a real tossup, Billy and Mandy I think.
Scooby will beat IT just for the fact that IT got shoved off the network.
SU will beat OtGW because of how long it aired and internet popularity, even though I'd prefer OtGW
OK KO beats Maomao.
JL over GR although recency bias will give GR a better outcome than you'd expect.
PPG and Ben 10 are gonna be neck and neck but I think PPG will ultimately win.
Gumball will beat RS, but I feel like there could be an upset here.
TDI will absolutely slam C+C and then have a hard time and possibly lose the next round in spite of that, because...
Courage and Dexter are both faces of CN as a network, Courage will ultimately win I think because Dexter's good episodes are older and its revival run really mars the reputation overall.
CotC will beat Clarence because of recency and the fact that Clarence was a sleeper hit while CotC is apparently popular with kids (for some reason?)
Weasel vs. Gym Partner is a real tossup because they're both kind of forgotten shows at this point. I think Weasel will win because it doesn't really have a bad reputation per se, while Gym Partner's first two seasons are held in pretty poor light.
WBB curbstomps SCI just from the Korean votes alone.
Putting Gumball against Regular Show and Dexter against Courage meanwhile Total Drama gets an easy win against Cow and Chicken feels so wrong
Adventure Time's gonna win
billy and mandy is an adventure show?
Well they did have that big boogey adventure.
the majority of the epsidoes is just them dicking around and something supernatural or crazy happening
>Regular Show vs the twitter meme cartoon zoomers relate to
Shame.
Gumball is only a year younger than Regular Show you tard. Chances are zoomies watched both.
And the only reason people remember Regular Show in the age of brainrot memes is the "hey yo he a frickin SIMP tho, aight??" angle which is negative portrayal of the series since people now treat it as "that cartoon with the incel bird huffing his crush's sweater"
The romance arc was the worst thing to happen to RS.
Yes and because of a shit twitter meme it's the only reason people remember or talk about it over something like Gumball with all its shitty meme faces and anime references.
Both Regular Show and Gumball are both meme shit and you need to get taste in cartoons.
Kek what, both Regular Show and Gumball are considered classic cartoon shows by zoomers.
>putting OTGW agaisnt Steven Universe
That shit ain't fair. Pit the popular shows against eachother first.
Have you never seen a bracket before?
>Over the Garden Wall and Regular show won't last 1 round
sad. Anyway it'll obviously be steven universe or adventure time, the winners in the other categories won't touch whoever wins that matchup.
>no Samurai Jack or Sym-Bionic Titan
Why does CN hate Genndy, bros?
Dexter is already the Genndy rep.
Samurai Jack is officially an adult swim show now and CN wrote off and buried Titan for tax purposes.
I can see Gumball winning out just due to its sheer volume of airtime, same with Total Drama Island. Courage will probably beat out Dexter, but it'll be close.
I'm interested to see Ben 10/PPG's results.
Same, both shows fave a good number of fans, and have their strengths. PPG is considered one of the leading Golden Age CN shows, and Ben 10 is a decade spanning franchise across multiple series.
Ben 10 might edge it out, but it will be close regardless.
PPG is going to win because recent news/reboots/attention online make it FAR more relevant then Ben 10 which died when Omniverse burned off and the new one was so kiddish it made the series irrelevant
Predicting a final four:
KND vs EEnE. Teen Titans vs Chowder.
I want everyone to win here.
they dont even air anymore most part of the cartoons in this tournament
this is what I think. I took show popularity and quality into account
>OG Teen Titans beaten by OG PPG
>popularity and quality
I don't even want to bring up Raven's rule 34 here but why would TT lose when PPG season 5 and 6 was bad? TT had the better movie and still has the better crappy reboot.
zoomers don't know about teen titans outside of TTG. PPG will win because current generation is more familar with craig mccracken's works
>zoomers don't know about teen titans outside of TTG
Are you kidding me? That's like saying zoomers don't know anything about Sonic outside of Sonic Boom. Teen Titans is well known to them. That's what carries TTG so long.
And OG Raven rule 34 is made every week. Of course they would know TT exists.
let's be honest, kids are more likely to vote for something they're familiar with and I'm sure a majority of the votes are coming from them. Kids won't vote for a series that hasn't aired for years over something like PPG which is still often posted on the social media accounts way more than the original teen titans is
>let's be honest
A phrase followed by a lie. Oh well. Let's find out when one of them wins.
Are you really assuming it isn't manchildren on twitter voting for this?
There’s no way PPG beats Ben 10.
because its a worse show? or because there are way more zoomer ben 10 fans?
Ben 10 has way more zoomer fans. I like them both though
Not what I would want to win, but what I think will happen.
Anything beyond this is impossible to call.
Steven Universe has a good chance at beating out the Eds just due to terminally-online trannies.
>regular show beating gumball
doubt
>they use the OG PPG and not the 2016 reboot
Lol even they know how shitty it was
>putting Total Drama, a show they didn't even make themselves. instead of Johnny Bravo
they must really hate JB, huh?
They didn't make Justice League, Young Justice or Teen Titans either. These shows are at least beloved and have large fanbases, so them being there at least makes sense. What the heck is My Gym Partner's a Monkey doing there when everyone on the internet now does nothing but complain about it? And CN is seemingly really loving it cause they put it up against a very forgotten CN show, I am Weasel, so it is probably going to win despite so many people hating it.
Johnny Bravo really should have been there instead. It's also weird how Uncle Grandpa isn't there cause that shit suddenly became really beloved on twitter.
There's something really funny about putting Mao Mao and OK KO against each other round 1....Funny in an awful kinda way.
Anyway the only actual competition I see going on here is AT vs SU, now THAT I wanna see.
I will take my eyes out if Steven gets more votes than Over the Garden Wall
They put way too many good matchups at the the start, should have done like the actual NCAA Basketball tournament and pit the low tier shows against the high tier shows first
I was part of the 11% that picked Young Justice over Teen Titans and I'm not sorry
Okay.
>That Flapjack
It's over... Why'd they have to do this on an app made up mostly of moronic young Zoomers who never seen shows before 2010
The other shows that won were before 2010 moron. AT was literally the only 2010s show that made it. Why is this board so obsessed with zoomers?
>young people are incapable of watching older shows before their time
Are you a literal baby boomer?
zoomers HAVE seen flapjack, it's not that old of a show
Are you autistic, moronic, socially inept or just purposefully trying to look dumb.
Huh pretty interesting that they're making the good shows fight each other first so they can have their groomer shit fight them last to make it look more popular than it is.
Like obviously Chowder and Camp Lazlo are both fantastic but that's the point, you have them fight each other so it makes it look like their non-groomer shows aren't popular.
Also lol at Adventure Time beating Flapjack what a bunch of basedboys.
>Newer shows aren't really popular because…they just aren't okay?!?
They genuinely aren't, modern TV viewership is low af, there are no toys made of them either
>modern TV viewership is low af
Isn't it all about steaming numbers since no one watches TV anymore?
It's more than that. Kids would rather watch Fortnite Let's Players than cartoons. Since that shit is much cheaper to produce, animation in general is getting hit hard.
>there are no toys made of them either
Some of them did get toys though.
That was 10 years ago at the most, shit like Craig of the Creek is literally just there to push an agenda.
Tbf, a good chunk of older CN shows didn't get toys either outside of shows like PPG and Ben 10. SBT was cancelled for not having toys.
>having black main characters is pushing an agenda
Ed, Edd, n Eddy will ALWAYS be better than Foster's Home. Sure EEnE has unlikeable and sometimes annoying characters (Sarah, Johnny 2x4, and Kevin to a certain extent) but Fosters has was to many unlikable jackasses, and Bloo is one of them. And Cheese is an annoying little shit. I remember when CN tried to make him and Fred Fred Burger their mascots.
Foster's ended up aging way worse than EEnE, it's still got some really solid episodes but man the low points are unbearable, and largely centered around those ultra-annoying characters. Even EEnE's lowest points are just kind of meh.
>And Cheese is an annoying little shit. I remember when CN tried to make him and Fred Fred Burger their mascots.
They were representatives of the humor that was popular at the time. Kind of like how Sonic represented the too cool for school attitude of the early 90s, Cheese and Fred represented the lol i iz randumb phase of the late 00s.
All of you homosexuals better vote for Mao Mao when the time comes.
But Vampire Milf!
He has no chance, but I will.
Of course I'll vote for Mao Mao. At least his shit is memorable. All OK KO is remembered for is "REFRENCEZ D00D!" and that shitty Sonic crossover. I only remember it because the guy who voiced Trevor from GTA V voiced one of the bad guys or something.
>not liking the references or crossovers or vampire milf
homosexual
If your show is only remembered for all the references that were shoehorned in it, then it a mediocre show.
Anon if the only good thing about your cartoon is it having references and crossovers with other things you liked and a single horny design, then it just isn't very good.
Adventure Time curbstomping Flapjack is hilarious because if it wasn't for Flapjack, Adventure Time wouldn't even exist
been 5 hours and the results have only changed a bit.
Teen Titans is now at 90% Young Justice is at 10%
Chowder is at 83% Camp Lazlo is at 17%
Where the frick are Apple and Onion.
so how do you vote on this?
You might have to make an instagram account to vote in these polls
create an instagram account on your phone, click on CN's profile picture, and tap on the show you want to vote for.
>I don't know who created... Teen Titans Go...
Wait a minute, where IS TTG?
I guess it counts under 03 Titans
I guarantee you that’s why it has a huge lead over YJ. No kid cares about 2003 Titans.
bold of you to assume most people voting are kids
>using Raven as the icon of Teen Titans
frick yourself CN
Lol if you think that's bad they used Garnet for Steven Universe
They also for some reason used Gwen for Total Drama despite Chris clearly being the show's most iconic character, and if not him then Owen or Duncan.
Teen Titans fricking smashed Young Justice holy shit lmao
>Billy & Mandy vs KND
>PPG vs Ben 10
These will be interesting ones.
not really. It's pretty obvious KND and Ben 10 will win.
The only match-ups where I can't predict the results are Gumball vs Regular Show and Courage vs Dexter. Maybe Infinity Train vs Scooby Doo as well.
>It's pretty obvious KND and Ben 10 will win
No it's not, Billy and Mandy was roughly equal in popularity to KND while PPG was absolutely enormous but is held back by being older and the new iteration being dogshit, but Ben 10 has a lot of bad iterations too. They're both gonna be close if not outright tossups.
I see way more people talking about KND, due it having better representation and overarching plots, plus more ships. Billy and Mandy was just a comedy cartoon with less characters. I predict KND will win with around 65% votes.
Ben 10 is more well known than PPG, like its fanbase is massive and keeps on analyzing everything about the franchise everywhere, it keeps on trending on twitter as well multiple times. PPG is popular too but I think Ben 10 is more popular and will win with around 55% votes.
Big internet fandom ≠ Popular with the general public
PPG is way more known than Ben 10.
Adventure Time is gonna wipe the floor with everything in the adventure bracket except maybe Scooby. That's not even a fair competition
Honestly I'd just be happy if Scooby mogged SU.
They should have put these in different seeds.
So if this was an anime fighting tournament, EEnE vs Foster's would one of the plot important fights while the others are offscreen.
I'm surprised people are taking an instagram poll as a serious competition. But I guess it's not like CN has anything else going on for it right now.
I agree with this
The ratios I feel are a bit off, but this is completely agreeable. I feel I can predict the next winners.
Am I the only one who has no clue how to vote?
Instagram stories
>Instagram
Wow, this is the most cancerous way to hold a vote possible.
I still have no idea how to do it.
balump
>Adventure Time wins lol
I would unironically say it's one of CN's top 5 worst television shows and has ruined animation for the past decade.
And yes season 1 or whatever is included, it's just as bad as the later episodes but for different reasons.
No one could ever say a single good quality about it outside they grew up with it
>No one could ever say a single good quality about it outside they grew up with it
Same with most of CN's output
>No one could ever say a single good quality about it outside they grew up with it
This defines literally every kids show ever
It was fun early on.
Bumping this because so far none of the results changed in any way shape or form, they all remained the same and it's been more than 12 hours since the polls got opened. Save to say these are the final results for these 4 match-ups.
Can't wait for tomorrow, KND vs Billy and Mandy and Gumball vs Regular Show is gonna be wild.
If Billy and Mandy beats KND, then everyone has irredeemably shit taste.
Flapjack deserves much better
Cow and chicken is the best
>the masses have shit taste
What a surprise
This. Foster's should have won instead. Why does Cinemaphile have better tastes the masses?
AIDSVenture Time is the most cancerous fricking show, le Wandom epic waffle bacon narwhal LOLCat dialogue and boring pretentious writing = good!
The rest of CN isn't much better.
new thread with the newest match-ups:
>Clarence beat Craig
I did NOT see that coming
I'm surprised people thought KND would beat Billy and Mandy. I took one look at their match and knew Billy and Mandy was going to win.
