Let’s get one thing settled right out of the gate. Cartoons are cool, okay? It doesn’t matter how old you are, watching cartoons is entertainment you should never deprive yourself of.
If you are interested in the history of animation, check out Fantasmagorie by French artist Émile Cohl. Film historians believe that it was the first animated cartoon. Cohl made it back in 1908 with hand-drawn animation. Since then, many other ways of creating animated films have been developed; some of the most common ones include stop motion, and more recently, 3D animation.
Animated shows have become increasingly popular ever since veteran animation studio Hanna-Barbera introduced the first animated sitcom, The Flintstones. Some people think that animation is only for children, but that’s absolutely not true. Animation is just a technique, an artistic tool the creators choose to tell their stories. In a way, you may even say it gives you more creative freedom because you are not limited by the laws of physics.
Whether you prefer feature-length or short, standalone movies or series, there are tons of fun adult cartoons in any genre you can choose from. And if you are searching for some cartoons to watch next, we really recommend our selection below.
