Has any animated show ever ended at the perfect time?
Like no downturn in quality or being cut short for whatever reason

If anyone says Gravity Falls I'm gonna kill them.
>If anyone says CORRECT ANSWER I'm gonna kill them.
It was both cut short and had a pretty big decline in quality in the last episodes
bump
Over the garden wall is the only real answer. Anything else got cancelled, dropped in quality, or got dragged along way too fricking long with no ending.
it was unironically cut short because alex was mad disney diden't approve the gay cop stuff
This is literally how math works after middle school, you're required to show your work and can't just say "4" anymore because at a certain point math stops being math and becomes ?????.
It sounds like you just weren't very good at it
moron
Maybe not "no downturn in quality" but I've seen shows end RIGHT when they're starting to go bad but not falling to zombie-status just yet, like KOTH or Superjail
The latter seasons weren't great but they were still enjoyable oftentimes
Usually the 'perfect time' feels misleading to most people, because if it never went bad they'd assume it can keep going, so it can be argued that anything that felt like it was 'cut short' was actually just done and run it's course
and if it kept on going it WOULD'VE gone bad
Well if we're extending it to that then Ed Edd n Eddy never really had a bad run even during the school seasons
Nope. If that ever happens, the Faustian pacts that everyone in showbusiness uses to attain fame and fortune will be broken, and the hordes of Hell will devour the Earth.
And now you know why good shows get cancelled too soon and bad shows go on forever.
There are no accidents in Hollywood.
Or they will be revived for another season
Avatar.
It came in,it had a plan, it broke ground and bowed out gracefully
You're right, but picking a show that was never supposed to go on indefinitely and had a very clear cut start n finish seems like cheating
What the hell do you mean cheating? That's exactly how you avoid OP's problem, if you don't plan ahead you'll never know when to quit.
Figure it out
frick off with your goalpost moving moron
Figure it out bro
oh you are moronic nvm
Use your brain box
People will say ATLA but honestly it ended too early. Should have had 4 seasons. Very truncated middle act that they speedran through.
ATLA is misleading because the finale itself wound up being really good, but I agree that the whole final act needed a bit more room to breathe. Having the failed invasion act as the third season finale with a fourth season dedicated to the heroes regrouping and rallying would've been ideal.
The finale sucked, and the whole mystery was resolved way too quickly for it to be satisfying. While I understand Hirsch's frustration with Disney, it really needed that third season.
>Having the failed invasion act as the third season finale
I disagree, the first half of the third season already felt a bit like filler
The episodes were enjoyable (even the Painted Lady and Daydreams and Nightmares), but they didn't feel all that necessary, apart from showing that the Gaang couldn't just fly into the Fire Nation in a day, and that the people there were actual people
Oban Star-Racers.
Maybe Moral Orel as well, while it had some cut episodes that I would've liked to see, I think it had a pretty good run.
Moral Orel got destroyed by AS's higher ups
Yeah Oban is the best I can think of. Code Lyoko kind of did.
I guess it's cheating to say with the recent reboot, but 90s Beavis and Butt-Head. It ended on the highest possible note of quality, with the show only getting better season to season.
KND and Hey Arnold had good runs without losing much steam
Regular Show ended with a bang despite the zigzag in quality
Phineas and Ferb was one but they're gonna frick it up
Phineas and Ferb was just barely starting to get bad, but there was enough good stuff in season 4 that I think it ended at the perfect time. Of course, now that they're bringing it back I'll have to think of a different answer. King of the Hill I guess? People hate Lucky but it never became bad overall.
Late season Peggy was worse than Lucky
Some people say that Courage went downhill after season 1, but I still think it was really good through its whole run
Courage the cowardly dog got cut short
Justice league unlimited
Clarence. Had a run that was the perfect length with no decline in quality and an enjoyable finale
I'm not a huge fan or anything but I think Kim Possible did pretty much everything they could with that show, and they even had a couple good movies too. I'd pick that.
Tough when you mention no downturn in quality. I feel most shows' last season is one of the weaker ones. ATLA and Justice League ended at the right time. Debatedly their last seasons were not the best ones, though not wholly unwatchable.
Ben 10 until alien's supremacy was peak and honestly was the best series finale of any western cartoons i saw in a while. (i dont count later remakes)
Hey Arnold, ATLA
Legend of Korra
lol, it looks like asami is tard wrangling korra.
Uhhhhhh
Pacific Rim: The Black? Not that there wasn't a nosedive of quality in the second season but the show was about the kids reaching Sydney and they...certainly accomplish that goal in the end. It's not a total clean wrap up of all their ideas and possible plot threads, but they don't end the series with everyone still a thousand miles away from safety nor do they reach Sydney then invent a new conflict to tease more eps that never come
Ed, Edd, n' Eddy. Season "6" may only be two episodes, but they decided to go the finale movie route instead for the rest of that time, what a finale it was.
>advertised the end of season 5 as the last episode
>both the alien crossover episode and the "season 6" episode happened later
Lmao
bump
Spongebob will never end
Rocko's Modern Life. 4 seasons was a good run.
Didn't they bring this back and frick it up?
Eh, I look at after-the-fact movies in the same vein of anime OVAs that I can disregard.
To be fair, I'm more surprised because of Nick's PR about "we had these people make sure it wasn't offensive" people missed this was yet again another example of Rocko getting shit past censors, in this case the joke being THE WATER IS MAKING THE FROGS GAY
People saying ATLA after how s3 went are out of their minds, it needed 1 more season to not speedrun through all the shit it pulled towards the end
ATLA Season 4 would have been absolute garbage. that show was falling apart. more time would not have saved it.

You at least have to give the horse show credit for having a proper series ending, even if the last few seasons were dubious and the ensuing "next generation" reboot made a complete hash of its predecessor. The writers were told that's a wrap, and they gave us one.
Horse show is one of the worst examples, 6 seasons too late.
>no downturn in quality
Bojack Horseman is still going though.
As for my answer to OP, I don't remember a quality drop in Batman TAS or Gargoyles
The first run of Futurama.
Mike Tyson Mysteries, more or less.
Chowder
Harvey beaks
Xmen evolution
Clone Wars 2003.
Futurama originally did, before it was un-cancelled
Bunnicula
Unironically Beavis and Butthead. The shows concept is futureproof and one of those things that can come and go for years and still be good as long as they keep the vision. It's gone through 2 revivals and 2 movies and they've all been at least pretty good
