Agghh I LOVE Adventure Time. ~~~

I can't handle most new cartoons, though. I grew up watching reruns of the classic Looney Toons and Hannah Barbara cartoons (also watched a lot of Betty Boop and Popeye, but that's not related), so when I see the new ones, the animation really throws me off and it's just not the same.

I also loved the bizzare/dark/messed up cartoons of the late 90s and early naughties (2000s). Things like Courage the Cowardly Dog, Invader Zim (I'm a huge Jhonen Vasquez fan), etc.

I also loved the movie the Brave Little Toaster as a kid, but looking back it's actually kind of disturbing (the air conditioner kills itself, there's a scary clown nightmare sequence, a flower dies of loneliness, there's a part where the appliances end up at an electrician's who basically "mutilates" and experiments on them Frankenstein-style, and there's a song called "Worthless" where a bunch of cars sing about their inevitable deaths as they are killed by a car crusher).
