Why haven't I thought of this thread?
If I were to pick favourites, I'd basically pick all the good Fox Kids cartoons (Bobby's World, Eek the Cat, The Tick, etc.), most of these haven't aired in 10 years or more.
There are a lot of rare American, Canadian and British cartoons I like but not very many cartoon fans have heard of. Is there anyone who has heard of Ruby Gloom, The Ripping Friends, and The Avenger Penguins around here?

My favorites? King Arthur's Disasters of course and Frankenstein's Cat. |

Anywho, I do happen to know a few ill-fated recent-day cartoons as well. Does anyone here know an ill-fated cartoon known as Ellen's Acres? This imaginative delight used to air on Cartoon Network back in January 2007 (and aired on CN Video as a launch title before it's TV debut), and only lasted 4 weeks on Cartoon Network. The series died due to a bad timeslot (9:30AM EST on a weekday morning to be exact). I also do happen to know an ill-fated toon known as Click and Clack's as the Wrench Turns. That cartoon series starred Tom and Ray Magliozzi, the same two that hosted a car talk show on WGBH Radio. It did air on select PBS stations back in Summer 2008, but died within a month and a half of airtime (and unpopularity).  What about the New Woody Woodpecker Show back from 1999? While being one of the later-era Fox Kids series, many of those series never lasted long before Disney bought out Fox Family Productions back in 2002. It was a great modern spin on a cartoon classic, but never made it to a newer generation of cartoon fans.  I could continue, but I didn't want to bore you guys.  |

As for Woody Woodpecker, I remember seeing that as a kid. I remember seeing a guy's brain being exposed (not gory-very cartoony) and Woody screwing it back on saying "There! Good as new!" |
