IndieWire's the 50 Best Animated Series of All Time

"Honed from a list of more than 100 programs, the below ranking still only illustrates a sliver of the storytelling diversity animation has captured over the last century. Seek out what you haven't seen and remember fondly those you have. Animation is a genre for all ages and all stories, no matter when you're able to start watching."
