There really hasn't been a watchable American-Produced-Directed-and-Animated TV series since AT LEAST Thundercats (2011), Generator Rex, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Avatar: The Last Airbender, and Adult Swim. Other than that it's been a barren wasteland on TV in terms of American-made animation, dating back until at least the six years between 2001 and 2006.
Shows made in the 90s are still very watcheable, as are many French shows and Japanese anime.
But we all know it will be a snowball's chance in hell that we'll ever see those amazing OTHER shows on air now, or any time soon, if ever at all. I think it has to do with broadcasts and networks on TV themselves actually being lazy enough to say "Eh, we don't want to rebroadcast cartoon shows that are 20 years old, or import good looking shows, or making anything new that looks all that cinematic. Just go buy the DVDs and help us out dudes. Why? Becuase we're fucking lazy and hate you all."
Gee, how courteous these TV people are, aren't they?
