Animated television series
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
(Redirected from Animated series)
An animated television series or cartoon television series is a television series produced by means of animation.
A note on usage: The duration of an individual episode varies from series to series. While some series may be produced as complete half hour programs, many cartoons are produced as short subjects of 15 minutes or less. These cartoons are grouped and mixed together according to network programming demands. Thus a particular animated series may appear in a number of formats, often anonymously, e.g. The Cartoon Hour.
Below is a sample list of animated series (the list omits most animated series from Japan, also known as anime, which number in the thousands[1]):
