The year 2019 marks the 100th anniversary of the ​cartoon series as a genre. To celebrate this amazing​ fact, we’ve created a video about how cartoon series evolved through the century.

We’re sure everyone knows at least some of these but let’s see how many you’ve actually watched. Huge thanks to everyone who’s helped create this video and especially to those who’ve been doing all these wonderful cartoons all this time.
Enjoy watching!

This video is purely educational and we do not own any rights for these animations. There have been around a bazillion cartoons created in the last 100 years, so the ones you find in the video have been chosen subjectively but based on ratings like im​bd and our own taste.

    Bruh. Looking back at this video in December 7, 2022, I would like to give a BIG HUGE THANKS to you for creating this whole video. Because this video inspired me to watch new cartoons between 2020-Now in 2022, and gave me knowledge on cartoons that I started watching but not from thinking of this. If it wasn't for this video, I wouldn't be where I am at now, no Pink Panther, Smurfs (1981), Ren & Stimpy, or my favorite character being Daffy on Looney Tunes (which I wouldn't be watching the 1980s-Now either). And It is even making me watch more Arnold, and making me inspired right now, on Winnie The Pooh (1988), ETC. It also showed how much animation involved over 100 years.
