The Ol' Firefly treatment
Maybe the PJ’s
That one was a good one. It's a shame that's the show that ultimately brought down Vinton Studios, financially. They were the ones who did the California raisins commercials, and the M&Ms commercials, among other things.
That crash is what ultimately got Phil Knight,of Nike fame, to gain a majority share of the studio and fire Will Vinton. He then put his son, Travis Knight, in charge of the studio, and changed the name to Laika.
I had animation instructors who worked in the PJs before they were all laid off. Everyone was bitter about the Vinton getting fired. I did get to meet Vinton once too, so that was neat!
I wasn't into Megas XLR but it was part of cartoon Fridays when I was in school and probably belongs in this list.
You can't list Oblongs, Undergrads, and Clone High without mentioning Mission Hill.
Chilly Beach is probably a deep cut for non-Canadians. I most often saw it described as Canadian South Park.
I'm not sure if it counts as obscure but Invader Zim also aired around this time.
Going back a bit further, there was Duckula, where the latest in a line of vampiric ducks was resurrected using ketchup instead of blood and became a vegetable vampire.
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes was made into a cartoon of questionable suitability for children.
Will def look into Chilly Beach
