CastletonSnob 3,063 April 23, 2017 Share April 23, 2017 We all love the show MLP. But what cartoons running today would you say are better than our pony show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerdy Luigi 2,065 April 23, 2017 Share April 23, 2017 (edited) In the state they are running today, none. But In my opinion, Star VS the Forces of Evil and We Bare Bears are up there pretty close. Edited April 23, 2017 by Nerdy Luigi 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreambiscuit 9,293 April 23, 2017 Share April 23, 2017 I like Star Wars Rebels a lot, but it's so different than MLP I can hardly compare the two. As a cartoony cartoon, MLP wins easily. As an action cartoon, Star Wars wins. (And admittedly I am biased when it comes to Star Wars; it's my other great love). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimGrimoire 4,973 April 23, 2017 Share April 23, 2017 I either like a cartoon or i don't. I am not much into playing favorites and trying to decide which one I like better over another. Since they all have different things I like about them, and many are scattered across different years as well as it can vary by a given mood I am in at a certain time, I really can't place one over another. Right now of the current "active" cartoons that are airing MLP is probably my favorite... although Stephen Universe has gained a lot of my attention as well. To also be fair, I have not been checking out a lot of other modern cartoons recently so who knows what I might be missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The MegaBrony 219 April 23, 2017 Share April 23, 2017 Paw Patrol. One of the loveliest kids' shows I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BastementSparkle 20,321 April 23, 2017 Share April 23, 2017 (edited) None, I enjoy a few other shows, but none of them nearly as much as MLP. With most of them my interest comes and goes, while MLP I've had on the brain since I found it, and haven't lost interest at all.

zerox 1,085 April 23, 2017 Share April 23, 2017 swat kats, pinky and the brain, the real adventures of jonny quest. any cartoons running now and are better than MLP? probably none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinkiePie97 913 April 23, 2017 Share April 23, 2017 Honestly, as of late, there have been cartoons I've been into more that MLP. If we're just talking currently running, I'd say Steven Universe, The Amazing World of Gumball, The Powerpuff Girls 2016 (yes, I actually like this show), We Bare Bears, SpongeBob (I'm actually looking forward to new episodes again), The Loud House, Harvey Beaks, Star vs the Forces of Evil, Milo Murphy's Law, and Hanazuki: Full of Treasures. I realize that's quite a few shows, but I'm not as into MLP as I used to be, and that's actually not even half of what I watch anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunny Fox 5,950 April 23, 2017 Share April 23, 2017 Steven Universe, and Star Vs. are two of my favorite picks. I'd like to get into The Loud House too, I hear it's good. Does anime count? Then My Hero Academia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmarston1 5,958 April 23, 2017 Share April 23, 2017 Currently running right now, I would have to go with Steven Universe, and possibly Voltron Legendary Defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Solar Magus 469 April 23, 2017 Share April 23, 2017 I don't compare the shows I like, but my other favorites are the Original Teen Titans (no go) show, and Samurai Jack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pr0m4NV14 839 April 23, 2017 Share April 23, 2017 Calvin and Hobbes, in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatonRyu 1,033 April 23, 2017 Share April 23, 2017 Gravity Falls and Star vs. the Forces of Evil are both better than MLP in my opinion, although Gravity Falls isn't running anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wind Chaser 4,768 April 24, 2017 Share April 24, 2017 I'm not as big on MLP as I used to be, but there aren't that many other toons on these days that I'm all that much into. The only one currently running that I could really say I like more and find better than MLP in some aspects is The Amazing World of Gumball. The show goes a lot further with its humor but I still find most of MLP's characters more enjoyable. As for other shows that are now gone but ran concurrently with MLP, I'd have to give mention to Gravity Falls, Wander Over Yonder, and The Legend of Korra. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusaders Forever 88 April 24, 2017 Share April 24, 2017 My shows that I feel are a little better than MLP. Adventure Time, We Bare Bears, and Steven Universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fl1cker 107 April 24, 2017 Share April 24, 2017 I too love "The Amazing World of Gumball" for its humor, laughed a lot watching this show, especially because of Nicole . But is it better than MLP ? I wouldn't be so sure about that, although some of the last episodes have been incredible, but perhaps it lacks those great villains which made most of MLP's season's debut and finale memorable. I've yet to see a villain as charismatic as Discord or a fight in a cartoon as amazing as Twilight vs Tirek (even though Nicole vs Yuki was very entertaining in TAWOG). Also, I don't think it's fair saying this cartoon is better than MLP considering how different they are in many aspects, but "Rick and Morty" is definitely the best cartoon I've watched. It's funny, intelligent, unexpected, it's literally got it all. Then again, it's not aimed at the same audience at all, but there isn't a single episode I found bad or even average.

But what cartoons running today would you say are better than our pony show? So, shows that currently run? They could be reruns, for example? Or do you mean shows that are actively progressing with more episodes ever few weeks? I think MLP:FiM is most assuredly a top-tier cartoon. But there exist a few others that can surpass it (imo). Current: Steven Universe (yes, that is all) Of all time: Samurai Jack (I have not seen the newest season, so I cannot vouch for a continuation in the quality witnessed in the old show) The PowerPuff Girls (original show, not this 2016 nonsense; I really consider this to be more "on par" with FiM instead of flat out surpassing it) Higurashi no Naku Koro ni (anime still count as cartoons, fools Higurashi had a "not so amazing" anime adaptation. It is one of the worst ways to experience this series. BUT Higurashi is just so freaking good that a subpar anime adaptation cannot suppress its magnificence) Death Note (better anime than the manga imo, and absolutely amazing) Elfen Lied (saddest anime I have ever watched. very freaking emotional) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,206 April 25, 2017 Share April 25, 2017 In terms of current stuff, I simply don't watch enough to make a proper judgement, but when counting everything? The first 3 seasons of Spongebob. The subtle humor in those episodes is amazing, same with the comedic timing and the characters. I laugh at least once a day remembering a quote from the show.

CinemaBrony 1,276 May 7, 2017 Share May 7, 2017 As far as current animated shows go, I've recently been more into Rick and Morty rather than MLP:FiM. I'd also say Samurai Jack, but I haven't watch the newest episodes yet; I still need to watch the rest of the original seasons (which I'm more than halfway through).

CentipedeGhoul 13 May 7, 2017 Share May 7, 2017 Tanaka-kun wa Itsumo Kedaruge (Tanaka-kun is Always Listless) If cartoons, then either the Amazing World of Gumball or Rick and Morty. Tough pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krashface 534 May 7, 2017 Share May 7, 2017 for anime: - One Punch Man; - The boy and the Beast (it's actually a movie, but is so gorgiusly animated) For carttons: - Star vs the forces of evil; - Gravity Falls; - Gargoyles (disney) - Old Ninja Turtles series; - The Boondocks (higly well animated, but tremendusly vulgar and funny about it).
