Top 5 cartoons of my childhood that suck

There is so many cartoons I loved when I was a kid.That now I have grown up and I go back and re-watch them I realize they suck.

 5.GI Joe a real American Hero

When I was a kid I rushed home every day and would sit there holding onto the rabbit ears so I could watch this cartoon.Once it was off the air I didn't see it until Rhino released the first season on DVD.Holy fuck is this shit.Bad writing,subpar animation and just crap. Sadly there is plenty of people my age that still claim this is a great cartoon.Sorry guys and ladies I truly believe that is just nostalgia coloring your opinion.

4.Masters of the Universe

This was another I rushed home to see.Now I didn't have to hold onto the rabbit ears.Because it aired on a channel I could get with just the rooftop antenna.When BCI put out the first season on DVD I grabbed it the day it went on sale.Fuck this show is total shit.From all the re-used animation. To the shoehorned in moral lessons.But once again you have people talking about it like it was one of the best cartoons of it's era.

3.Voltron

I can clearly remember my Art teacher talking about how bad the animation in this show was.And I argued with him about it.Then what was it almost 10 years ago Adult Swim started rerunning it late at night.I recorded a bunch.The Art teacher was right,the animation is total shit.With certain scenes used in every episode. Plus the stories I remember as being mind blowing when I was 10 or so are so badly done.Full of cliches.

2.Super Friends

By the time I was 5 this was airing every weekday on a local UHF channel.Then every Saturday on ABC IIRC.And being a young comic geek I had to watch it.Then in the late 90s Cartoon Network started rerunning it.And like everything else so far on this list I was majorly disappointed.The villains were all bad.Bad animation,and even the voice acting is bad.I will admit to enjoying the final two seasons.But even them are not that good.

1.Transformers

This is the one that most males my age and a bit young love.And I did when I was a kid.Once again I got the DVDs when Rhino started releasing them. And discovered it has to be one of the worst cartoons of the 80s.Well maybe not the worst,but the worst that gets so much praise.I actually sat down 5 years ago and watched every episode.And there is maybe 3 I found worth a shit.But to most geeks that grew up in the 80s this show is untouchable.
