14. Daria (1997-2002)
Though the show only appeared for five seasons, it has a very strong cult following to it. In a sense, Daria was almost too clever for mainstream television. The titular character (voiced by Tracy Grandstaff) offered the angst of a snarky teenager with equal parts intelligence and satire. While it never was on the level of some other cartoons from a popularity standpoint we truly think Daria was ahead of its time — as well as simply ‘too’ smart for much of the mainstream to digest. Regardless, watching some of these older episodes in the present is quite fun.
