Ranking Every DC Animated TV Series From Worst To Best

10. Green Lantern: The Animated Series

The CGI look may not be for everyone, especially for fans of classic DCAU projects, but there's a lot to love about Green Lantern: The Animated Series.

A project led by BTAS co-creator Bruce Timm, the Green Lantern Animated Series followed Hal Jordan as he explored the cosmos with perennial best friend and former instructor, Kilowog. The story borrowed heavily from the modern stories of the Corps, and featured both the Red and Blue Lanterns along the way, leading to an epic climax involving an all-out Lantern war with the Manhunters in the series' final episodes.

Sadly, but rather predictably, the show was cancelled due to poor toy sales. Similar experiences on Young Justice led creator Paul Dini to denounce the state of modern cartoon programming, which he described as being fundamentally sexist and motivated solely by the sale of merchandise. Ouch.
