The 9'er: Top 9 TV Cartoon Characters

The 9’er: Top 9 TV cartoon characters

9. Doug—Back in the day Doug was featured on Nickelodeon. A fun little

Doug

cartoon about a teenager with a vivid imagination. The show taught us lessons as Doug learned. My favorite thing his imagination came up with was Quailman (who wore his underwear on the outside of his pants.

8. Michelangelo—The wise cracking, party-loving ninja turtle. As far as I know there was never a cartoon based on the artist himself. Michelangelo was by

Michelangelo

far the most quoted turtle of them all. With words like “Cowabunga,” and “Radical.” Mikey also carried the ever dangerous nun-chucks.

7. Wile E. Coyote—Poor little coyote. He was just never able to catch that dang road runner. But he was persistent. Even after being squashed, throw over

Wile E. Coyote

cliffs, blown up, and smashed into the sides of cliffs, Wile E. never gave up. He will be chasing that bird for eternity. Always coming ever so close, until something goes wrong with his stupid ACME gear. He really should think of abandoning his product loyalty.

6. Bart Simpson—Eat my Shorts! While controversial, Bart Simpson definitely deserves to be on this list. The early episodes of The Simpsons were built

Bart Simpson

around Bart. He was the show. Now Bart has taken a back seat to his father Homer, but he’s still in the forefront of cartoon-dom.

5. Spongebob Square Pants—Spongebob is a favorite between children and pot smokers alike. Children watch it for the bright colors, almost incoherent

Spongebob

storylines, and lots of laughing. Pot smokers watch it for the same exact reasons. Last year Spongebob had his own movie, which had one of the biggest stars in the world (HAHA) David Hasselhoff. Being a sponge, Spongebob is asexual and therefore appeals to boys and girls. He is the essence of inclusion.

4. Bugs Bunny—One of the most famous TV cartoons ever. Bugs Bunny could almost be considered the grandfather of TV cartoons. Although, not my

Bugs Bunny

personal favorite (I like Wyle E. Coyote better) in sheer fact of being recognized Bugs has that won hands down. Everyone who has ever watched a cartoon knows who he is. Which is why he deserves number 4.

Now the top three may not be on your list at all, I don’t know. I picked them, because I adore them. That’s it. No more, no less.

3. Bender—Real name: Bender Bending Rodriguez (assembled in Tiajuana). Bender from Futurama cracks me up every time he talks. There was one

Bender

episode of Futurama where Bender was shot out of a torpedo tube. A space meteorite struck him and a colony started growing on him, of tiny little people. It was great. Bender was God. In the end he pretty much destroyed his own civilization by negligence. I also love the idea that he has to drink to stay sober.

2. Stewie Griffin—In the beginning of Family Guy Stewie was bent on world domination. Now, he’s just turned gay. But, no matter what Stewie does I can’t

Stewie Griffin

help but love him. His accent. His way of speaking. I love how he’s so smart he can create a ship that shrinks down and goes inside Peter’s body, yet he falls for the whole Peek-a-Boo game and thinks once Peter puts his hands in front of his face, he’s disappeared. I get a kick out of Stewie.

1. Homer Simpson—The man himself. Homer has come a long way since the first episodes of The Simpsons. As a bumbling idiot, Homer has a heck of a

Homer

resume. He has done more things than anyone on The Simpsons combined. Homer in my opinion is the most hilarious, most wonderful cartoon character ever.

Please, if you would like to add some more to the list go right ahead. Just explain why.
