Ranking Every DC Animated TV Series From Worst To Best

17. The Super Friends Series

One of the more iconic animated shows to feature characters from the Justice League, The Super Friends (and all subsequent series to feature the group), is also the longest running DC cartoon in existence, lasting a staggering thirteen years until it was finally cancelled in 1986.

It's just good fun, really, and features Aquaman riding his now infamous pink seahorse into battle on more than one occasion.

Perhaps the coolest thing about the show, however, is that it was renamed in its final season and subsequently titled 'The Super Powers Team: Galactic Guardians'. One would struggle to guess what a Super Powers Team is, or indeed what a Galactic Guardian looks like, in this day and age. What we do know, however, is that they sound awesome. More Super Powers Teams, please.

Content Producer/Presenter

WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well. In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
