The dinosaurs tv show had the most chilling and haunting finale of any show I’ve ever seen, it leaves a grim impression on you that never fades even after it ended and you can’t but feel sad about the characters as they suffer through nuclear winter and always hoping that they live through the disaster to see the sun again.😢

Thing I remember most about dinosaurs is "Not the Mama" lol

Dinosaurs was an adult show kids could watch. The finsl episode was brilliantly dark.

Growing up, The Simpsons was one of my favorite cartoons.

I loved how Crazy Ex Girlfriend deconstructed Rebecca's actions, showing how unhealthy they are, and ultimately ending with her choosing herself over her various love interests.

Despite being mainly aimed at younger audiences nowadays, The Flintstones was originally aimed more at an adult audience when it first came out.

Even McDonald’s thought Dinosaurs was a kids show when they served Happy Meal toys of the family from the Dinosaurs TV show.

Family Matters was originally a spin off of Perfect Strangers. It was supposed to be about the lives of Harriette Winslow and her family. All that changed when the writers brought Steve Urkel on the show. I'm not sure how long the show would've lasted if Steve Urkel was never created.

Family Matters was a spin-off of Perfect Strangers -- Harriet operated the building's elevator

Honorable Mentions:
*Running Out Of Ideas - Various TV Reboots
-There HAVE been times when the reboots and shake-ups actually improved upon the original or (at the very least) able to stand tall alongside the original. But then there are the reboots that just... don't get it. But for every reboot that doesn't work like Teen Titans Go, Powerpuff Girls (2016) and Thundercats Roar, there are shows that deliver like Ducktales (2017), Animaniacs (2020) and She-Ra and The Princesses of Power.

I love dinosaurs it is still one of my favorites to binge watch

[julznixon]

Dinosaur's was not for kids but they played reruns on Disney channel, lol.

[Lordoftheapes]

I have to call foul. The Orville has not been officially canceled. Season 5 isn't off the plate yet.

[BlenderStudy]

Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! 7:14 I agree. The 90s Simpsons show had a lot more humorous scenes.

[introvertsrock]

Still hoping there's more seasons of The Orville

[andrewhaase]

3. The same could be said for many other cartoons today. Among the average at best episodes, for or every misfire, there's a bullseye.
I've seen the Simpsons through it's highs and it's lows, that's just showbiz.

[daphneloose]

I remember in the first season of Family Matters, Eddie and Laura had
a little sister. why was she left out after season one? that one always
boggled my mind.

[chriselder]

#1 should have been Lost. People still claim they were *spoiler* the whole time and it's clear they just weren't paying attention.
