The Best Canadian Cartoons Literally Ever (Not Really)

Despite the whole tone of this video I am not a patriot I just like cartoons. There's been a lot of heat on Canadian cartoons and its pushed aside all the good stuff so here's the good stuff. I have a lot more suggestions but like I said thats for another day. Let me know any of your favourites :) Also no hate to anyone who made a bad Canadian cartoons video. Those videos are pretty funny

I’m a Canadian animator, I have to point out that Canadian animation is not at all dead, in fact it’s thriving and a huge amount of animation is made in Canada. The distinction is that most of these shows now are made for streaming (and not always for kids) rather than TV by American companies, rather than Canadian. For example, Hilda, inside job, and final space are three cartoons that I really liked and were/are made by Canadian animation studios. (The latter two were unfortunately cancelled) during Covid, so many animators were hired in Canada and they needed more. There was so much being made, although it has slowed down now; more projects are always being picked up. Basically I want to clarify that not as many original Canadian productions happen but the actual animating is done in Canada for a lot of recent shows.

[@Zeigabibblez]

Man, Final Space was fantastic, thanks for that.

[@synni3379]

I guess a lot of Canadian animators helped with Hazbin Hotel.

Its kinda nice to see someone talk about Canadian cartoons other then Total Drama and the giant category of bad shows we have. I grew up on most of these shows and I remember watching Teletoon almost every day, I have vivid memories of playing games on the teletoon website and trying so hard to watch Teletoon at Night because I was curious. I dont really remember anything about these shows anymore though. I do remember trying to watch Detentionaire but I never knew when it was on and stopped watching cable before it finished so I never got the full story. I also remember watching a lot of Bakugan Battle Brawlers which according to Google was a Japanese-Canadian show, the more you know

[@The_Blue_Otaku]

Damn I remember watching Bakugan Battle Brawlers and Ben 10: Alien Force every Saturday morning on Teletoon, I also remember being around 9 or 10 year old sneaking my ass downstairs to watch Robot Chicken and R-rated action and horror movies on Teletoon At Night

As a kid in Canada in the early 2000's who watched both of those shows a lot and only realized the main characters shared the same VA from your comment, I'm shocked lol.

Still voice acting in the Inuyasha sequel anime Yasahime. Good anime so far should watch it.

[@Catbus-Driver]

If you look up almost any VA from the 90s or 2000s anime scene, the majority of them are Canadian and worked on a ton of different titles. Richard voiced Inuyasha, Ian, Bit Cloud from Zoids, Quicksilver in X Men Evolution, etc, etc. The guy has over 150 characters listed from Cartoons and Anime...

[@Sayne7]

Its a good show, and a cool piece of Jewish representation in children's media, I'm not Jewish but's still cool. _The Hollow_ is also worth checking out, the twist near the end of the second season really caught me off-guard

[@TigerKirby215]

Holy shit this video gave me a massive nostalgia trip. It was always so weird to me as a Canadian kid to talk to my American friends online and learn that they didn't know any of the shows I used to watch. It was wild when I learnt that one of my friends actually watched League of Super Evil, because that show was on CONSTANTLY on YTV. It wasn't our Spongebob but it was definitely our Fairly Odd Parents.

[@Frankie-Ak]

I GREW UP with Jacob Two-Two! I LOVED that show and i STILL do! I LOVE the style and backgrounds, and its PACKED with hidden lore that paints a kinda horrifying picture that i love!

Also, its made in a similar style as Dragon Booster and Slug Terra(both im pissed about not being continued further. Especially dragon booster cause they did it dirty T-T)

It should be included more often, it's like they're ignoring the middle child (even tho it's technically the youngest)

I can take a guess why Storm Hawks wasn't well loved by YTV, and that would be Spongebob, since Nickelodeon pushed that so hard. Heck, in my city and I am an adult who loves cartoons, while Storm Hawks aired. Alot of the best cartoons were moved to Teletoon an affiliate of YTV and was made an extra channel so not only did we loose a decent channel we lost most of the best shows, and didn't have the cash at the time for expanded cable.

Time to summon all my Canadians with the name of ONE SHOW. Bakugan. You're welcome.

[@LordBuglug]

Funny that you mentioned that no one remembered Team Galaxy because I clicked on the video because of it!

[@aaa1e2r3]

13:15 Not just that, but also due to legal mandates. CRTC required all Canadian TV channels to have a minimum 60% or so of Canadian original or Canadian worked on content.

[@blekiscooler]

the main two channels I liked when I was little were Teletoon and YTV!!! I miss teletoon, man

[@spencedawg5568]

I was surprised that TDI wasnt on here, let alone for the banger intro

[@shyguypro9876]

Thank you for mentioning Team Galaxy. Everyone my age remembers Totally Spies and Martin Mysteries, but no one remembers Team Galaxy. It was easily my favourite of the three.

[@imDontaye]

Spliced was my go-to show back in the day. Loved the character designs and the characters themselves. Should’ve deserved a season 2

I actually posted a reply that talked about Storm Hawks some time last year on a Twitter post that was discussing forgotten cartoons (most of them being Canadian in origin). It became one of my most popular posts and made a lot of people amazed that it in fact was not a fever dream. It's a shame that the show never got finished properly.

[@Tig3rbutts]

This video was such a trip! I grew up with a lot of these shows, and always appreciated how weird and creative their aesthetics could be. Storm Hawks 4 lyfe!

[@enzo_stuff]

Jimmy Two-shoes was one of my favourites when i was little, it was so fun

[@simplyoddest]

Never thought anyone else would remember Fred's Head :') grew up watching that, I'm 22 now and rewatched it recently, it holds up pretty great

[@blazeb2150]

Thank you for reminding me of Team Galaxy, I have no clue if it was a good show, but I completely forgot about it.

[@UncleLayne]

Dawg I remember all of these, and sometimes I feel insane knowing about them when all my american friends online have absolutely no idea what they are

[@mightyrc5520]

I'm so happy you made this video, as a proud Canadian, I HOPE you make another one on shows like Fred's Head (my personal favorite), BraceFace, Class of the Titans, What's with Andy, 6teen, Stoked, and many others. Especially Fred's Head duuuuude it needs to be known, so underrated, anyway, keep up the good work

[@Sayne7]

Remember when Andy drank a ridiculous amount of grape drink and he had to pee really badly and all the bathrooms were out of order and he had "you're an 8" repeating in his head? thats all i remember from Whats with Andy lol

[@ukitakeitalia]

Oh my gosh! I loved Team Galaxy! It would always come on at weird times. I feel like it never had a solid, consistent airing time and cartoon network would play it whenever they felt like it.

[@katherineb2331]

storm hawks was one of my favourite shows as a kid, it was so ahead of its time and breaks my heart that it didnt get the love it deserved

[@finland4ever55]

Oh Jimmy Two Shoes.... I'm now having flashbacks to when I liked Lucius for some reason. Don't ask.

[@needee5324]

God, this video awoke memories in me that I didn’t know I had. I’ve literally seen every show featured in this video, including the ones that only appeared as b roll clips. Some I’ve only caught glimpses of, but others still come to mind from time to time like Jacob Two Two.

[@FrameRater]

Being Ian was one of the best shows I ever watched as a kid

[@susanroche597]

As poor America 🇺🇸 I had to watch these shows on public television. I didn’t mind them but most of them should have more seasons because it’s was super annoying to watch replays over and over again. But Jacob Two two was fun to watch. Again should have more season!😢 Ever saw Ben 10,Pokémon. I noticed Canada tv shows have less lore and American 🇺🇸 shows have so much lore.

as a Canadian Growing up in the 2000's, it gives me alot of Nostalgia
