I'm thinking about going back to watching some currently running cartoons regularly for the first time in like 15 years. I hear that there's some really good ones and I wanna get some opinions on these titles:

Also, I'm open to suggestions for other titles. I wanna stick to shows that started around the time of Adventure Time(2010ish) and is at least smarter than something like Spongebob.

And yeah, gonna try to narrow it down to 5, so feel free to do a "if you watch just 5 shows."

samurai jack
adventure time
steven universe
gumball
young justice
gravity falls
Star Wars: The Clone Wars
Trollhunters
Voltron(Netflix)

Young justice and the clone wars are both great shows (just ignore the clone wars animation)

There are two clone wars series, one drawn animation and one CG. The drawn one was more over the top than anything Star Wars related before or after it, it is also nolonger canon.

It is good on its own, but no longer relevant to Star Wars.

The CG one, it's a great show but has awful animation (but it does do the worlds pretty nice)

Since no one's really able to mention more titles, can you people maybe just do the whole "if you're only gonna go with 5 cartoons" thing please?

Out of those you listed Samurai Jack is 100% a must watch, no question. Top 3 at least.

Out of all of those I'd say:

Avatar
Legend of Korra
Samurai Jack
Young Justice
The Clone Wars

About TCW, I hear the CG one starts off slow but has a lot of character development and good story arcs.

(While the animation one is just 2 hours long on Youtube and while you can live without it, it does have its moments aside from the wonky voice acting and some art styles, it doesn't really get good until the second season which is basically the second hour and it does has the balls to include Durge as an antagonist unlike the CG one as well try to fill in the gap of what happened directly before Episode 3)

Pass! Pass! Hard, hard HAAAAAARD PASS!!!

Part of the reason why I wanna go with shows from 2010 or after is to avoid shit like this!

Just be warned that certain shows such as Steven Universe are still ongoing and you might have to wait months just for new episodes...

About half of the things you listed in the original post are not currently running.

The good half.

Choose wisely.

Well, currently running, or ended a few years ago, while starting around 2010 or later.

There will always be good and bad voice acting. Regardless of when it was made. Plenty of shows I rewatched semi-recently from the 90's and early 00's still hold up.

I forgot to mention that I watched the first episode of all the shows on my list several days ago. got a lot of winners.

I enjoyed
Samurai jack(final season)
Star Vs The Forces of Evil
Ducktales
Avatar+Korra
Star Wars: Clone Wars
Over the Garden Wall
Young Justice
Avengers
Spectacular Spider-Man

Avengers and Spec Spider-Man especially shocked me, both in term of just how great the shows are, and how only one person recommend them. Of the Two, Avengers is the easy winner here, although it's pretty damn close.

I just finished Samurai Jack. Satisfying ending to a pretty sweet series.

Star VS the Forces of Evil still feels like the best cartoon ever, and reminds me of my dreams.

Ducktales remake, well the remixed opening song isn't as good, but other than that I can easily say it's even better than the original, and the original is my ******* jam!

Young Justice I definitely consider worth watching, and I'm gonna make a it a priority so I can catch up for when it comes back, but I don't think it's amazing.

But in any case, that's 10 out of 16 shows, so I liked most of em.
