Shredder and the Joker!
Emperor Belos
Bill Cipher, Emperor Belos, Zaheer, Slade and Fire Lord Ozai
I don't know what to type
Dr claw and Simon the Monster Hunter
"A platypus?"
*puts on fedora*
"PERRY THE PLATYPUS!"
17th place, boooooo
No wait Ive seen this before. The hat doesnt work on Doofensmirtz
Yup
If it had an honorable mention, I would've included HIM (The Powerpuff Girls), Lex Luthor, Vilgax, Emperor Belos, Simon Laurent (Infinity Train), & Dr. Emilia (Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts)
The fact that Him from PPG isn’t on here is insane.
Vilgax should have been in the list
Yes.@@jonathancarlson7901
And Mumm-Ra (Thundercats) and No Heart (Care Bears).
@@jonathancarlson7901 Even more insane that Belos isn't on here.
Vilgax should be on there. Dude is a menace.
For sure
Doofenshmitz was the best villain!
Phillip Wittebane/Emperor Belos is truly one of the best TV cartoon villains ever! They should've included him as well.....
FR
Yeah, he's so evil and hateful that I love him.
He truly is a great villain.
The fact they put Mr burns as number one of all people is just salt in the wound
I would have included Belos and the Core from Amphibia. The reason why not Andreas is because he does have a redemption arc. The Core however was pure evil all the way.
@@chefcircuit5392 And they didn't even bother saying something different about him. That is the exact same thing they said about him in previous episodes of the CZcams channel.
13 to 12: Speaking of Ron Perlman
4 to 3: Speaking of Mark Hamill
I noticed Ron Perlman's roles, but HOW DID I NOT NOTICE FOR MARK HAMILL?! SMDH😤
Mr. Lancer Firelord Ozai and Firelord Sozin
Glad Bill Cipher was included, but should have been ranked a little higher
A lot. He should have been above Ozai, who shouldn't have even been on the list at all.
I Totally Agree with you 💯 Percent!
I agree 👍
Totally
There should be a list of the Top 20 _Funniest_ Cartoon Villains. The Red Guy from Cow & Chicken would definitely qualify.
*”Hello,* it’s me!”
I might be wrong but besides "Red" the only time I recall the show giving him some kind of a name was an episode where the three characters had a T-shirt with their "name":
I.M. Weasel
I.R. Baboon
I.B. Red
If that ever happens, Doofenschmirtz would be number 1
Bill: "I see the laws of space and time more as suggestions than actual orders, like dry-clean-only."
That fact that bill didn’t even make the top 10 is a crime against humanity.
The fact that Firelord Ozai is even on the list at all is an even bigger crime against humanity.
I wouldn't say it's a crime against humanity but it's definitely a crime against Bill and don't forget, he sees everything.
@@Supasmartguy And the fact that Emperor Belos ISN'T on the list.
I am a simple man.
I see Dr. Doofenshmirtz, I click
If they did top 20 funniest cartoon villains, Doofenschmirtz would take the top spot
DCAU Joker.
Voiced by the famous Mark Hamill.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
After 50 years Aku finally dead
And no more living on a cliffhanger.
Cartoon villains that should have been on this list
-Emperor belos(owl house)
-Omni man(Invincible)
-Adam(hazbin hotel)
-Valentino(Hazbin hotel)
-Scarlamagne(Kipo)
-Amon(Korra)
Haven’t seen Kipo but agree with every other one you’ve got here. I’d put Valentino instead of Adam, but DAM they missed out on Belos!
Why Scarlamagne instead of Dr. Emilia?
@@waheedabdullah6371 cause he is more interesting. Dr emilia seems more bland compared to him.
@@bahesb2419 It's not bland that she killed her own brother?
@@waheedabdullah6371 Not That, I mean scarlamagne has his depths, his personality, his charisma. Dr. Emilia doesn’t really have any depths of interesting motivations and her whole personality is just” muhahaha, I’m smug and evil”.
Ozai may be the main villain of avatar but azula should be on the list, same can be said for
Belos from The owl house
Green goblin and Venom from Spiderman
Darth Vader from Star wars
Darcy/The core from Amphibia
Zurg from Buzz lightyear of star command
Glad that Skeletor is here, truly scary villain and his laugh is one of the best
Only after Homer lashed out at Mr. Burns in “Who Shot Mr. Burns: Part 1” did Mr. Burns gain my approval as the most notorious adult cartoon villain.
This was Such a Nostalgic list 🥹
Agree
I think Vilgax from Ben 10 could be on this list
Me too
Honestly there were a few I thought of that could have been included on this list lol.
Discord from MLP (Even though he does become reformed he's still on the same level of chaos as Bill. )
Magica Despell from Ducktales
and since were doing 80s I still say that the Dark King from Rainbow Brite still left a impact on me to this day. To see what he turned the entire world into at the beginning of that series still is shocking to me.
I don't know if he counts but Brain from Pinky and the Brain. He literally tries to take over the world... every episode. XDDD
I love that mark hamill is two of the r top five villains!
So was Ron Perlman!
Dr. Robotnik from Adventures Of Sonic The Hedgehog is also one of the most iconic cartoon villains... And also one of the most memed. 😂
And he wears polka-dotted underwear!
And HE HATES THAT HEDGEHOG!
That is my second favorite Sonic cartoon (my favorite being X). That show is absolutely hilarious.
Doofenshmirtz isn't really a bad guy, he's a good guy pretending to be bad. Though he is a good father.
'Jack Spicer', 'Wuya' and 'Chase Young' from the original 'Xiaolin Showdown'
were among the best cartoon villains I had seen as a kid.
Can you do Top 24 best Cartoon Villains of each year (2000-2023)?
I would argue that Doofenschmirtz isn't really a villain. I feel like he's a nice person with aspirations of villainy.
My favorites
1.Megatron
2.Cobra Commander
3.Shredder
4.Joker
5.Dr.Doofenshmirtz
6.Bill Cypher
7.Magneto
8.David Xanatos
9.Negaduck
10.Slade
“RELEASE The HOUNDS……”
-- Mr. Burns
Happy 35 years of Laughs and Steamed Hams, Simpsons (1989-2024)
Aku will always be the GOAT in terms of villains from Cartoon Network
He is basically Iroh as a villain
Do top 10/20 best live action TV show villains of all time.
What about Toffee from Star vs the Forces of Evil?
I’m only watched this video because Doofenshmirtz is in the thumbnail
Honorable mentions:
1. Boris Badenov and Natasha Fatale (Rocky and Bullwinkle)
2. Yosemite Sam (Looney Tunes)
3. Wile E. Coyote (Looney Tunes)
4. Mumm-Ra (Thundercats)
5. Dick Dastardly and Muttley (Wacky Races and Dastardly and Muttley in Their Flying Machines)
6. Clown aka Violator (Spawn: The Animated Series)
7. Mandark (Dexter's Laboratory)
8. David Xanatos (Gargoyles)
THIS! Add Simon Barsinster From Underdog
@@houseofw5386And Snidely Whiplash (Dudley Do-Right)
Add the Sorcerer from Randy Cunningham 9th Grade Ninja
Ooh! Add Cyril Sneer (who did some truly heinous sh*t, really) and this is a better list than the actual one we're watching. Uh.....
Shego from Kim Possible
Charges should be brought against whomever decided that the Joker wasn't number one on this list.
And the fact that Vigax isn't on the list
@@arinhossain2100 And the fact the Belos isn't on the list
WHY isn’t Emperor Belos (The Owl House) on this list?!
There are some villains you forgot about like Eric cartman, Master Shake, Bender, Team Rocket, invader Zim, Lord Hater, Gru, Icky Vicky, Mandy, Stewie Griffin
Never heard of any of those, except for Stewie, although he isn’t exactly a villain. Also, if by Bender you mean the one from futurama thats not a villain either.
Plankton was literally on their list
@@CainNuke Bender is a villain protagonist or anti hero which he’s both
The Sorcerer from Randy Cunningham 9th Grade Ninja
@@user-fy5wd3zv2o I dont think it counts, he is one of the protagonists as well and a friend of the main one which is Fry.
Hey, where's Maul? Better yet, might as well as added all the villians from The Clone Wars series.

Loving this list, some of my favorite villains made it! 🎉👏
Mandark from Dexter's Lab, Father from KND, Shego from Kim Possible, Lord Hater from Wander over Yonder should honorable mentions at least
Megatron, Shredder, Skeletor, and Cobra Commander will always be my favorites. Amazing job on the video WatchMojo.
You left out Mumra from the Thundercats.
Top 20 Best Cartoon Heroes
So I’m guessing villains like Viggo Grimborn from Dragons Race to the edge, Nox from Wakfu, Shendu from Jackie Chan Adventures, and Chase Young, Wuya, and Jack Spicer from Xiaolin Showdown are honorable mentions.
Sentinels would like a word with you. Especially after X-Men'97 Episode 5
The Lich was truly terrifying and scared me as a child.
Scariest villain
Should’ve been higher tbh.
Yeah especially just that chilling voice and like never knowing when he will appear
Vilgax, Mr Burns, Dr Drakken, Rick Prime, Fat Cat, Montana Max, HIm, Negaduck, The Joker, Darkseid, Lex Luther, Mojo Jojo. Just a few of the Best Animated Villians.
Should’ve been the ‘03 shredder smh. That incarnation was more threatening than the ‘87 one.
03 was a nightmare he just came on coming back. He even had a cyber back up
@@ethansatterfield5958 even the utrom version more threatening than the ‘87 one. The ‘87 shredder has been comical as hell smh.
@kevind3619 I was referring to the Utrom Shredder he is the one that made the cyber back up, so in a way, Utrom Shredder and Cyber Shredder are kinda of the same Shredder one of theme is just a program
@@ethansatterfield5958 that makes sense. ‘03 shredder reminds me of slade.
you missed vilgax from Ben 10
Video suggestion: Frieza vs Darth Sidious to see who is the ultimate/ruthless emperor of the universe
David Xanatos from Gargoyles is missing. There's something called A Xanatos gambit, a whole trope named after him.
If you are gonna show the Shredder, at least use the 2003 Shredder to make it just. Especially since he did more and better evil than any other.
I would add Boris Badenov from Bullwinkle, Simon Bar Sinister from Underdog, Dr. Zin from Jonny Quest and Mumm-Ra from ThunderCats.
You forgot about Lord Hater and Vilgax! That’s a crime if they’re not on the list
For Jack, defeating Aku was fifty years in the making. For Aku, it was all of five seconds 😂
Doofenshmitz evil incorporated. Best theme song ever. 🎉
Ya should do top 20 henchmen next, would complement this video well
Plankton is a good example!
"MORONS! I have morons on my payroll!" - Cobra Commander. :)
"I've got MORONS on my team!" - Megatron
My two favourite 80's cartoon villains. :)
DCAU Darkseid.
One of Uxas/Darkseid’s avatars.
Homer is probably more of a threat than Mr. Burns.
While I would have a different order, this is a great list.
I noticed the past year, maybe, honourable mentions are not present. I miss them.
Speaking of the hobgoblin and spider carnage from Spider Man TAS.
Simon the Monster Hunter and Dib from Invader Zim
Honorable mention from me: Professor Pericles from Scooby-Doo Mystery incorporated
He is great and very underrated
Your number one villain is indeed excellent well chosen watchmojo mr burns is my favourite character in the entire simpsons show
Vandal Savage,Lex Luthor,David Xanatos
Honestly it would of been sick if King DDD was in this list since the man was literally out to kill kirby just because he hated his existence
Chase Young should have been on the list too
Magneto definitely should’ve been higher on this list. Placing him at #10 is insulting to the very complex character.
Missing(s): NegaDuck, Toffee, Professor Venomous, Lord Boxman, Twim Masters, High Roller,
Pretty good, I'm just surprised you didn't add Gunmar from Trollhunters. He's arguably one of the best cartoon villains ever written
Two that come to my mind:
Chrysalis from MLP FiM
Thrawn from Star Wars Rebels
Watchmojo pls do top 20 most Violent Villains in cartoons of all time next pls.
I wish you had included some honorable mentions for this list, 20 is a pretty impressive number but there are still far many more iconic cartoon villains that could have been touched upon
No. 4 & 16, it's nice to know the DCU versions of Joker and Darkseid that will replace the DCEU versions will also take heavy inspiration from this animated versions here and the ones from "Young Justice"
I feel like the picks themselves were good, but the order was all out of wack.
They should’ve included Horde Prime and Dark Danny Phantom.
Agreed.
Cobra Commander is GI Joe's Starscream
Honorable mentions:
1. Azula, honestly think she is more of an iconic vilain then Ozai (Avatar)
2. the Trix, Lord Darkar, Valtor (Winx)
3. Vlad Plasmius, Skulker (Danny Phantom)
4. Vicky (Fairy OddParents)
5. Vilgax, Charmcaster, Zs'Skayr (Ben 10)
6. the Professor, Rassimov (Huntik)
7. Flintheart Glomgold, Magica De Spell (DuckTales 1987)
8. Fat Cat, Professor Norton Nimnul (Rescue Rangers)
9. Shego, Dr. Drakken (Kim Possible)
10. Dr. Doom (Various)
11. General Grievous (Star Wars: Clone Wars 2003)
12. Shendu (Jackie Chan Adventures)
13. Scarface (The Animals of Farthing Wood)
We need a top 50 for this subject.
Why is Darksied, of all villains, right between Dr. Doof & Dr. Klaw? He’s way more powerful than both of them and has no redeemable qualities, at all.
I love how incredibly unhinged Plankton is 😂
MEGATRON: “You fail me yet again Starscream!”
Dark Danny from Danny Phantom? Belos from The Owl House? Toffee from Star vs. The Forces of Evil? The Core/Darcy from Amphibia? The Nowhere King from Centaurworld? Saddam Hussein from South Park? Demona from Gargoyles? Magica from Ducktales? Adam from Hazbin Hotel? Striker from Helluva Boss? Aaravos from The Dragon Prince? Amon from Legend Of Korra?
What about Professor Pericles from Scooby-Doo Mystery Incorporated
You people completely missed and ignored VILGAX THE CONQUEROR, ONE THE MOST EVIL, MOST SCARY AND MOST ICONIC VILLAINS IN CARTOON HISTORY
He wiped out every version of Ben across the mulitverse ecpet for one
Mumm-Ra from the original Thundercats series, especially the first season, was absolutely terrifying.
Can you do a Top 30 Satisfying villains death in cartoon shows
Rick Prime (Rick and Morty), Vilgax (Ben 10), Yosemite Sam, Elmer Fudd, Marvin The Martian (Looney Tunes), Vlad Masters (Danny Phantom), The Flying Dutchman (Spongebob), and Anti-Pops (Regular Show).
I would have put Shendu from Jackie Chan Adventures on here. That guy was a real Menace!
I love Doofenshmirtz
Honarable mentions I would've added.
1. Omni-Man (Invincible).
2. Vilgax (Ben 10).
3. Mumm-Ra (Thundercats).
4. Van Kleis (Generator Rex).
5. General Grievious (Star Wars: The Clone Wars).
6. Starscream (Transformers: Prime).
7. Drago Bludvist (How to train your Dragon 2).
8. 2003 Shredder.
9. Scar (Lion King).
10. Azula (Avatar: The Last Airbender).
11. Zuko (Avatar: The Last Airbender). I know he's also an anti-hero but in the early seasons he was an enemy and rival of Aang.
I feel like Toffee from Star vs the Forces of Evil deserves at least a mention, he was so well written and calculated and menacing and is the best villain of the show
I know everyone loves Avatar but Ozai was really only in.... 3 episodes as a proper antagonist in anyway before the finale. If you aren't going with someone who wound up redeemed why not Azula at least? Also I know the 80's takes on these characters may be the most iconic but there are better Megatrons, Shredders and Cobra Commanders in the newer cartoons. Plus really IMHO if we're going with best Cartoon villains it should just be with characters who STARTED in cartoons not ones like Joker and Darkseid and the like who were in comics first.
Fault discord & starlight glimmer mlp friendship is magic
I can’t believe that Luke Skywalker is the voice of The Joker! 😂
I would add Giganta from Justice League/Justice League Unlimited
Your forgot Mumm-Ra the Everliving Being of Evil
Maybe do Top 10 Surprisingly Attractive Cartoon Villains? And please don't put in the obvious choices like Azula, Zuko or Shego. I mean villains that make you be like "Why do I find them hot?"
Zuko joined Team Avatar in Season 3
@@ivanhernandez9579 Oh right. I never watched Avatar, so I wouldn't know.
I really hope Megatron from Transformers is on this.
Whether it’d be the original G1, “Animated”, or even “Prime”, I’m fine with either of these.
