Batman the animated series is my personal favorite show from the 90’s. That decade is easily the best animated decade of all time

[@TheOriginalJphyper]

Good animation seems to happen in cycles. The 1970s was the golden age of Hanna-Barbera. You just mentioned the 90s. Then the 2010s had shows like Adventure Time, Gravity Falls, and My Little Pony.

[@GoldenPantaloons]

Rose-colored glasses dude. Go look up all the animated shows released in the last century - Wikipedia has one. There are _factually_ just WAY more great animated shows released in each of the last 2 decades than any previous. In large part it's because there are way, way WAY more animated shows being made in general. Seriously - there were a few gems but by and large Western animation was in a grim state until the mid-late '90s, early '00s. And though I'm not sure this is the reason, the timeline does sync up perfectly: Around that time Toonami took off, which was the first real introduction of anime to most Western audiences and a pretty resoundingly successful market test. So I suspect Western animation complain suddenly realized there was a market for cartoons with somewhat more adult themes, complex plots, and experimental styles - because suddenly those projects started getting the money thrown at them. Up until the mid '90s cartoons were JUST a) children's shows aimed at _very_ young kids, b) a few long-running, firmly established, formulaic, merchandise mule comic book serials, and c) _utter garbage_ literally only existing to sell toys. Gotta give credit to the likes of Animaniacs, Freakazoid, & Dexter's Lab for blazing the trail w/ more adult humor that gave kids some credit - but by '00 new more tonally challenging story-based shows like Batman Beyond & Samurai Jack were showing up... More networks started investing in cartoons... Adult Swim brought in the adult audience... And 20 years after cartoons were all... _barely_ disguised ads for the new Transformers or GI Joe toy lines, and the latest X-Men and Spiderman trades... The most popular kids' cartoon was about _the last human boy and his shape-changing dog in a post-apocalyptic magical fantasy/nightmare land having silly adventures that play out more like acid trips_ and it was equal parts delightfully creative and existentially terrifying- And... AND! THAT show competed w/ another MAINSTREAM KIDS CARTOON about siblings visiting a remote town crawling with cryptids and slowly unraveling a seasons-long conspiracy orchestrated for actual, sensible - but complex, sometimes conflicting, and initially shriuded - purposes; a conspiracy involving prophecy, hidden clues, actual cryptographic puzzles, government conspirators, pacts with demonic extradimensional entities, anomalous spacetime gradually unraveling the fabric of reality and ushering all of Earth into the shadow of an unimaginable eldritch apocalypse... That was on _The Disney Channel._ You know what their marquee cartoons were 20 years prior? That's right - the one about those spunky boy ducks protecting their rich uncle duck's money; oh or the cute chipmunk detectives helping their neighborhood police by solving cute little animal-size crimes. It's 6 years after that now, and the creators of both those cartoons have made *more* cartoons - plus there's a whole new set of cartoons, not just on network TV anymore but also dozens of streaming services, hundreds of independent production companies distributing content online, *thousands* of independent animators cranking out full-time work funded through crowd-sourced support. AND there's the TV Networks. And about a hundred new digital cable channels since the '90s desperate for something to distinguish themselves. Oh, and anime's fully in the US mainstream now, so don't forget all those Japanese production companies making more intentional forays into the American cartoon market. There's SO , SO MUCH animation being released nowadays. The sheer volume means there'll necessarily be a lot of crap; but it only seems like it's ALL crap when you're right in the middle of it. There was just as high if not a higher percentage of crap cartoons in the '90s, and especially before - but we remember the good ones. You look up that list again 10y from now... once the cream of this crop has floated to the top... you'll realize then what an animation golden age you're living in now

[@Bored_Overthinker]

The best animated decade was definitely the '80s. The 90s has some cool shows, but the eighties was really the golden age. The 90s had a lot of very boring cartoons of just kids playing outside or kids solving everyday problems or kids doing boring stuff, where is the 80s had stuff like lasers and robots and all that classic Saturday morning goodness.

@@marcuslevis The younger millennials were arguably the last generation to have an internet-free childhood. Internet Zoomers don't understand Millennials. Millennials are the last generation born in the 20th century. Generation Y/Millennials, the generation born in the 1980s and 1990s, comprising primarily the children of the baby boomers and typically perceived as increasingly familiar with digital and electronic technology. 83.1 million people or more than a quarter of the U.S. population, can be considered Millennials by most definitions. The younger millennials were arguably the last generation to have an internet-free childhood. The generation's size exceeds that of the 75.4 million baby boomers. Born after the year 2000 is considered part of iGeneration (aka Generation Z/FORTNITE KIDS). It is so-called due to the technology that existed during the time of their births: iPhone, iPod, iPad, iTunes, Wii, etc, and the way that they are used: individualized. Zoomers! tiktokers, QuaranTEENs, Omegle kids, fortnite kids, tide pod babies, jake paulers, logan paul kids and streamer twitch kids are those born between 2001-2009 and beyond. They all grew up on the same stuff. Generation Z/Zoomers, the generation born in the 2000s and 2010s, comprising primarily the children of the Gen X'ers and typically been raised with screens, smartphones and are the most tech savvy, very much influenced by vloggers and internet celebs.

Try being the youngest born in 94. I kind of technically remember the y2k panic but that's literally the only thing in the 90s I do remember and that's basically the last month of the entire decade lol. I don't feel right calling myself a millennial but since my family didn't even own a dial up computer until I was almost 10 & I had cassettes/vhs' I don't really feel like gen z either since I didn't grow up with more advanced tech and watched basic cable so my tv shows were mostly reruns from the 90s. It really does seem like those of us born in like 92-96 should be our own mini generation since we have a weird division of both millennial and gen z experiences.

[@unfortunateRM]

@@lilithlaney1759 in essence the "mini" generation you mention grew up in the booming of technology. We literally grew into multiple iterations of vhs, DVD, and digital. From small boombox radios with cd players to the iPods then outgrowing those in like 1 or 2. Hell I still remember using the floppy disk 💾 before using a flash drive and now we have SD cards.

[@BambiTrout]

@@unfortunateRM 97 here. We're Zillennials. We're the Gameboy Advance SP to the Millennial Gameboy Color and the Zoomer Nintendo DS. The MSN Messenger to the Millennial AIM and the Zoomer... everything. Our first phones were slide phones, Motorola Razrs and Blackberries, compared to Millennials with Nokia 3310s and Zoomers with iPhones and Androids. Old enough to remember Friends and Buffy, but too young to watch either. Raised on Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, the Star Wars prequels, and Doctor Who. Too young to really understand 9/11, but old enough to remember life was different before it. The early-00s were just a really weird time to grow up. Obviously we saw the tipping point of about a billion different technologies, but culturally the late-90s and early-00s were just a fucking mess. Obviously there's 9/11, but everyone knows about that. We were born just as Girl Power reached its cultural peak, and then just as suddenly, it crashed and burned before we were old enough to enjoy it. We grew up in the backlash, where women were hyper-sexualised and scrutinised to a greater degree than ever before - an environment where we got to watch Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears, Amy Winehouse, Demi Lovato, Amanda Bynes, Miley Cyrus (and MANY more) each get successively raised onto an impossibly high pedestal, before they got worked so hard, and hounded so aggressively by the press, until they eventually were cracked and broken and made into punchlines. Forget "divorced, beheaded, died...". We grew up with "Rehab, conservatorship, died, rehab, conservatorship, survived". We became teenagers as the Great Recession hit, then graduated high school as Trump and Brexit happened, and then graduated from university into a global pandemic. Millennials were already adults when a lot of those things happened, while true Zoomers don't remember a time before any of them. It feels like we were born right at the crest of about 4 different tidal waves - technological, cultural, economic, and political - watching the Zoomers about to get hit, and the Millennials already getting washed out to sea. Meanwhile the Xers are surfing and the Boomers are drinking champagne on a yacht, both sticking their middle fingers up and yelling "Why don't you just try swimming harder?"....but I'm not bitter. Not at all
