	I can't even believe how many I knew but missed. I am KICKING myself for it!

	Caedus:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 20:49 GMT	38 points
	Spongebob made it on, but not Doug?

	mad_caesar:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 20:50 GMT	13 points
	I think Eric Cartman should be acceptable for number 10, it is his full name. I must agree with @Bryant though, no Griffins? Clearly TV Guide have missed Family Guy in entirety!

	twist:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 20:53 GMT	7 points
	@caedus: Doug seems to be forgotten about quite a bit. Maybe it'll be on the next one!

	how did The Powerpuff Girls make #13 on the list??

	mungar:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 20:58 GMT	17 points
	This list was made in 2002. Although nothing from Family Guy should be anywhere near this list even if it was made today.

	Among the deserving that were left out: Optimus Prime, Shipwreck, Bender, Phillip J. Fry, Scrooge McDuck, Captain Murphy (from Sealab 2021), Hank Hill and Montgomery Burns.

	This list I cannot abide. Angelica Pickles? Ahead of Pikachu and Mickey Mouse? (I didn't even guess Pikachu, but still.) And since when is the Grinch a cartoon character, he's in one animated film.

	Dirk:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:09 GMT	47 points
	Good concept. Bad list.

	MikeSang:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:10 GMT	44 points
	Pikachu over Mickey Mouse???

	bobc:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:11 GMT	7 points
	Yogi and Boo Boo should be ahead of many of those on the left side.

	HPZ:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:12 GMT	18 points
	Now that I think about it, I bet "Bill" is Bill the bill from Schoolhouse Rock.

	RC_Cola:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:14 GMT	3 points
	No Hong Kong Phooey? No dice.

	iceman1731:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:16 GMT	-1 points
	I typed in simpson and bart simpson...one of those should have been acceptable

	CerberusVent:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:17 GMT	37 points
	No Smurfs?

	motrain24:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:18 GMT	23 points
	not enuff time... too many cartoons to try to think of...

	twist:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:22 GMT	4 points
	I think the reason some of your favourite classic cartoons are lower on the list than you expect is because the list was made in 2002 and those shows had/have only been playing re-runs for years. Kids these days have new cartoons.

	all_saints_day:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:23 GMT	40 points
	Is it just me or is this list kinda terrible?

	Zack_Morris:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:24 GMT	22 points
	I looked it up, it is the Bill from Schoolhouse Rock. Which is pretty awesome. I would have liked some love for Dudley-Do-Right/Tennessee Tuxedo/Mister Peabody or other characters from the shorts between Rocky and Bullwinkle.

	Mr_Negative:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:26 GMT	39 points
	Awesome quiz missing Garfield, Smurfs, Pink Panther, the Jetsons and maybe some others

	mustango:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:26 GMT	11 points
	Also no sign of the Warner Brothers (and Sister), Goofy, Dexter and Deedee, GI Joe, Spiderman, Archie... And Top Cat instead of Huckleberry Hound?

	HPZ:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:29 GMT	3 points
	@Zack_Morris: Where did you look it up? I googled and googled 'til I could google no more, and found nothing.

	rockgolf:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:31 GMT	6 points
	Fascinating list. I completely brainfarted on anything Disney. But sooo many weren't originally TV cartoons! (You really should put the date of the list somewhere on the top of the page.)

	pbysr:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:31 GMT	14 points
	Hello all you happy people. You know what? Droopy not being on the list makes me mad.

	ted:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:32 GMT	28 points
	I'm surprised none of the Animaniacs made it. Also, you should clarify in the instructions that the list was published in 2002.

	America:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:39 GMT	9 points
	first off, Tom and Jerry should be top 3. Not fifty!! Also, where is Michigan J. Frog? or Optimus Prime?

	Sathington:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:42 GMT	8 points
	I'm surprised Roger Rabbit didn't make it. Am I the only one who remembers Voltron?

	Garfield was my favorite. Where is he?

	actuary:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:58 GMT	-4 points
	This quiz is dated, some of the answers are no longer relevant and there are clearly more recent characters missing. Also, 7 minutes is not enough time in my opinion. Who the hell is Bill?

	ZapRowsdower:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 21:59 GMT	11 points
	50 greatest cartoon characters becomes sorta pointless with so many multiple entries (Bart and Lisa, Charlie Brown and Snoopy). I can sorta understand if you're talking about obvious pairs like Tom & Jerry, but not all of the multiple entries are like that. If you're going to pick 50, PICK 50!

	capncokenojoke:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 22:04 GMT	7 points
	i would like to know exactly how the "greatness" of these characters is judged in an attempt to figure out why some of these characters come before the others

	ad808:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 22:23 GMT	6 points
	No love for Jem? That's truly outrageous!

	twist:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 22:26 GMT	4 points
	@capncokenojoke: seeing as how it's from TV Guide, I'm going to go out on a limb and guess popularity of viewing rates!

	Asdfaeou:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 22:33 GMT	9 points
	Angelica Pickles at #7? Hmm....

	Chriscwest45:	Sep 17th, 2009 at 22:33 GMT	4 points
	Mickey Mouse should be No. 1 of any cartoon character list as if it wasn;t for him there would be no cartoons as there are today. This list is poopy
