Avatar was okay as far as American anime goes. I kinda liked it ... just a little :3
Otherwise, yeah, most American toons suck. They're usually just mindless crap meant to prevent the usage of brain cells with just enough "plot" to constitute an episode, that ends up rarely progressing past that.
Hmm. See, this is why anime is becoming a hit. Deal with it, America.

Spongebob is pretty decent, animation-wise. I used to like it but I sort of grew out of shows like that. I think they're slowly replacing cartoons with shows like iCarly and stuff though.

Ugh, those sort of shows annoy me. I've never been able to place my finger on it but they just ... do.

Honestly, who the fuck decided that Nickelodeon should phase out their toons? (not counting the nicktoons network which is slowly becoming the dumping ground of nickelodeon's shit series')

AhkneeKitteen: They annoy me too. A lot of kids at my school watch iCarly and Spongebob and all, but I just can't stand it anymore. But I do like some Disney channel shows, like The Suite Life of Zack & Cody and That's So Raven. As crappy as the acting is, I like them for some reason. @moon yagami: Maybe lack of cartoon artists? I dunno, maybe they fired all their cartoon artists because the animation of their previous cartoons had been so shitty. Though the animation for Spongebob and Rocket Power were actually pretty good. Some cartoons had decent animation. Hey Arnold did, too.

Spongebob is still on, it's even getting new episodes from time to time... On nicktoons network (I dunno if this is true anymore... I hardly ever tune in because Invader Zim, Ren and Stimpy, Rocko's Modern Life, and other shows I watched growing up are gone) there's some new stuff that is worse than the live action crap that appears on the nick network.
Honestly... Three Delivery, Wolverine and the X-Men, and Avatar are the only reasons why I tune in anymore. Maybe Kappa Mikey when I'm in a bad mood.
BTW: Nick used to have a show named Doug, it was great until Disney bought the rights to it... Disney is to Nicktoons as 4-kids is to anime

Aah, all those shows, I remember them well ... my childhood toons in a nutshell. I miss them all so much! Toons these days just don't match up!
Y'know, I was never really a fan of Doug - I mean, it was okay, but it wasn't my cup of tea. It weirded me out, just a touch.

The N... I tune in sometimes, nothing really interests me on that channel anymore. I've seen every classic episode of every classic nick show

I really miss old Nickelodean shows. My favorite was What Would You Do? Even Nick Gas used to be decent until they started showing the same thing over and over again and dumped the older game shows. Seriously, has anyone else noticed that the commercials are all...the...same? Again another reason why the 90's rocked...not just in music, but in TV too. -nods-

I was so pissed when I found out that Dish wasn't splitting The N and Noggin. I seriously thought about sending some hate mail there. Heh heh, I'm sorry. I have too many things to say.
