In case anyone's wondering here are the results:

Swat Kats is dead with 28 kill votes and 7 saves.
Goof Troop is dead with 11 kill votes and no saves.

Talespin came in third place with 7 kills and 2 saves.
Freakazoid came in fourth place with 10 kill votes and 6 saves.
Doug came in fifth place with 4 kill votes and 1 save.

Special sixth place shout out to Home Movies with 10 kill votes and 8 save votes.

Feel free to go back and double check my counting to make sure these are the correct results.
You are pretty much right.
Only difference was I tallied 27 and 8 for Swat Kat's but it doesn't matter anyways.

Time to clean house

Kill: Sonic the Hedgehog
Kill: Sonic the Hedgehog

Save: Home Movies

Nothing good has ever come from non-video game Sonic media. All the cartoons were terrible and I honestly don't know how this one has lasted for so long.
 
Kill : Sonic the Hedgehog
Kill : Sonic the Hedgehog
Save : Hey Arnold!

Seriously, why is Reboot still on the list? Seriously, why has this show almost never been targeted? Seriously?!
The death of Sonic never gets old to me.
Hey Arnold! - I will be saving Hey Arnold apparently till it's eliminated...


Edit:
ReBoot was the first show ever to be fully CGI, I believe. It is a technical marvel for its time. Furthermore, it actually had character progression, something you rarely see in a children's show. Entire characters were nearly/actually killed and reborn anew. It was way ahead of its time, especially being a Canadian show. Seriously, how many Canadian cartoons ever made a presence outside of Canada?

Absolutely no reason a show with that much merit (on top of being a solid show with a unique story) should be voted out this early.

Well, I'm glad I finally got an answer. Although this should have been out before Daria, Pokemon, Ahh! Real Monsters and a few others IMO. But, I see this show still has a few rounds it in. even though my guess is half the people just want revenge kills at this point. I can't be the only one who didn't watch this show as a kid an look it up, only to see how god awful it is!
 
I'm gunning to off Tailspin once and for all.

Kill Tailspin
Kill Tailspin
Save: Home Movies


I just never could get into Tailspin, and I want to try to get the final 30 to be all quality shows.

Home Movies has a special place in my memories, as I was a young movie maker in the 90s and saw a lot of my experiences relived through that show. Coach McGuirk alone makes that show worth saving until top 25 or so.
 
Kill: Sonic
Kill: Sonic

Why did this outlast Daria and Pokemon. Wtf? This show has nothing going for it. Tale Spin sucked, but at least it had a catchy theme song.

Save: TBA
 
Sigh..... oh well.... It was a good effort. RIP Razor and T-Bone.... (most loved in 94, most killed in 13)

Kill: Sonic
Kill: Sonic
Save: Reboot

I liked the sonic show but the votes are hard now.
As an IT guy, fan of evil dead, and Mad Max I'll be fighting for this canadian classic until a throng of hate bury's it.

I rest my case.

Kill: Home Movies
Kill: Home Movies
Save: ReBoot (EDIT: Whoops, swapped it with 2 Saves and 1 Kill on accident, thanks Canti)

I never saw Home Movies but have seen every other show on that list, so, sorry Home Movie fans.
 
Kill: Home Movies
Kill: Home Movies
Save: Hey Arnold

There are no bad shows left on this list except Sonic (well, TMNT doesn't hold up either, but I'm sure there is more nostalgic love for it than Sonic). Tale Spin barely escaped death last round, so we might as well.

I also would have been up for taking down Pinky and the Brain at this point. It's a funny cartoon, but it's already represented by the Animaniacs basically, and it's got to go at some point.


You only get the one save :P
 
Killing Beast wars!? that is chaotic evil

BW is by far the best Transformers cartoon. My god the characters were so fucking great. The designs, the voice acting and the story were so good. I never missed an episode of that show.

Yeah the animation wasn't too hot even back then, but the art style and designs more than made up for that IMO.

I really need to check out Reboot again. I remember really loving it back then but I'd like to see if it still holds up. Beast Wars certainly does.
 
We have to kill something. Reboot and Beast Wars both had good stories but both had the same horrible CGI animation. It was revolutionary at the time, but it was a bad revolution that gave rise to a lot of ugly, cheap, and soulless garbage that would come after.

I'll change it to Tale Spin for now.

I think we still have a lot of crap to wade through. Sonic? I mean come on, just because the animation was crappy in Beast Wars you can't say Sonic is worth keeping over it? There was nothing redeemable about sonic, not even the animation!

I also have a kill for Sonic on there.

e- Cool :P
 
Kill: Sonic
Kill: Freakazoid

Save: Home Movies

Sonic I just never thought was very good. Freakazoid seems so polarizing with how the vote has been the last few rounds, I think it's time it goes.
 
I was gone and came back to the death of Swat Kats :(

OT:
Kill: Pinkie and The Brain - Again, good with Animaniacs, not so much stand alone
Kill: Doug - How is this still here?

Save: Freakazoid - I swear gaf just hates my childhood favorites. Freakazoid was amazing. It's humor was always well timed and it's writing and acting were tops.
"Hey. Cut it out!"

Edit: Wow all the hate for Sonic Satam. I thought it was a really well written show, especially season 2. I can see this type of hate for The Adventures of Sonic the hedgehog, but not for Satam.
 
Save: Freakazoid - I swear gaf just hates my childhood favorites. Freakazoid was amazing. It's humor was always well timed and it's righting and acting were tops.

I wasn't really a kid when Freakazoid came out, but I still loved it. I still break out the DVDs every once in a while and I still enjoy it.
 
Is it voting time again?

Kill Home Movies. I mean it's not really even a "90's" show to begin with. 1999? Big deal.
Kill Home Movies.
Save Sonic
 
Kill: Beavis and Butthead - Never watched it. I would probably hate it now.
Kill: Tailspin - Must keep Home Movies going for another round!
Save: Home Movies - Still funny, you bastards.
 
There is no God, best cat based show in history is out :\

Kill: Beast Wars
Kill: Freakazoid

Save: Doug

Beast Wars is a terrible idea. Would have been easier to swallow as traditional cartoon instead of barren lifefless cgi animation. Freakazoid should go, because you Freakzoid lovers killed Swat Kats.
 
Are you guys confusing Sonic SATAM with the terrible comedy show with Scratch and Grounder and Sonic Sez?
 
Kill: Sonic
Kill: Tailspin

Save: Reboot

Reboot was fucking amazing, don't you guys dare. I will find you in the streets
 
Kill: home movies
Kill: sonic

Save: freakazoid

Sonic had too many bad cartoons before they supposedly got it right. I don't even know which cartoon I'm killing as I stopped watching any sonic cartoon because the only one I remember was horrible. Home Movies was boring and I never found it funny.
 
Kill: Hey! Arnold
Kill: Spongebob

Save: TaleSpin

Hey Arnold remains inferior to Doug.
You can read my stance on Spongebob here. I wouldn't even mind if it won the 00s competition, but it is not even top ten in the 90s.

TaleSpin remains the threatened show that I most like. Who doesn't love jungle creatures living a steampunk-esque Golden Age of Aviation?!
 
Kill: Tale Spin- How the hell did Baloo go from Jungle Book to this? You know what was a way better Disney action-adventure cartoon from the same era? Chip n' Dale Rescue Rangers.
Kill: Tale Spin- Yeah this is the same as last round.
Save: Sonic- I'm hoping Home Movies and Tale Spin die off this round. SatAM can go next round.

Thanks again Binary for the support.

No problem dude.

I liked Rescue Rangers when I was really young, but outside of the animation and the catchy theme song, it doesn't hold up very well at all. The stories are geared towards the very young.
 
Kill: Tale Spin
Kill: Tale Spin
Save: Freakazoid

I'm flip flopping on whether I should use my save on Freakazoid/Sonic/Home Movies. Have to go with Freakazoid I guess.
 
Kill: Ren & Stimpy
Kill: Ren & Stimpy

It's time for this show to go, it's weird for the sake of being weird and by far the weakest remaining on this list.

I have no save vote since all of my wild card shows I loved are gone and it seems like the usual boring suspects are going to make the top 10.
 
Kill: Sonic
Kill: Talespin

never watched Sonic, but a vote there seems to be the best option to save Hey Arnold and Freakazoid (though i think Freakazoid can bow out now with no regrets; the only shows that really NEED to go before it now are Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Reboot, and Beast Wars.) as for Talespin, the only good Disney shows left are the ones with "duck" in the title and Gargoyles.

Save: Home Movies

Home Movies was pretty funny.
 
Why do so many people want Sonic SatAM dead? Over freaking Talespin!? Keep in mind that Sonic SatAM is NOT the one with Scratch and Grounder.

Kill: Talespin
Kill: Home Movies
Save: Sonic SatAM
