Bring back Jack dammit! That show was awesome....far more so than Megas as far as Im concerned...and as has already been said it never got a proper ending! They even did a for TV movie showing the origin of Aku and Jacks blade but they never did a proper ending! FUCK THAT AND BRING BACK SAMURAI JACK!

It was called Sophie's choice, and I believe the Sophie in question was a Polish immigrant (who moved to the US).

As for the choice itself that is just dastardly! I'd probably choose Jack at the end because as far as I know he hasn't killed Aku and returned to his time yet.

I picked Samurai Jack (which is my second all-time favorite TV show alongside Dexter's Laboratory and Powerpuf Girls)...mainly because I missed that show on Cartoon Network! Also, there is one critical aspect of Samurai Jack that has not yet been developed. Though Genndy Tartakovsky mentioned plans for a movie or so that would end the Samurai Jack story and send Jack back home to the past so he can 'undo the future that is Aku' inside the packaging of the fourth season of Samurai Jack on DVD back in 2007, such plans for a movie or so that would end the Samurai Jack story and send Jack back home to the past so he can 'undo the future that is Aku' has never been fully fleshed out.

And that is why I must help stop the dramatic decrease in actual good, quality cartoons, especially on television as well those from the 1990's.

"Sophie's Choice." Google is your friend. Since I've never felt the urge to watch Samurai Jack and I've never heard of the other one, I'd choose Samurai Jack and then yawn. The most important decision of my life? Hardly. The most important decision of your life? I'd say you should think better of yourself.

Dear god, I hate you for making me choose...

But I think I'd have to say Samurai Jack. It had it's own unique art style, fun characters, and a good story. Megas XLR was great, too, don't get me wrong, but I definitely enjoyed Samurai Jack more. It was more original.

Easy pick. Samurai Jack. Megas XLR was a generic concept executed poorly most of the time, saved only by its occasional bouts of good humor.
Wow, I actually found someone who doesn't like Megas. Well, that's ONE...

(In case you didn't realize, that's a vote for Megas from me.)

Samurai Jack!!

Samurai Jack got pretty serious at times, but comedy came hand-in-hand with the action. Jack's role as a mostly silent protagonist sometimes got him in trouble, and for a man living in the nightmare future he's partly responsible for, he had a good sense of humour. The show was well-written, not to mention the wonderful animation skills being displayed. The show ended way before it was supposed to, with a lot of things unfinished. Every week was building and building to the ultimate showdown with Aku, and then... oops! Show's over. Here's CN Real. Love it.

Megas was too formulaic... it had the same thing happen every week. Coop isn't interested in heroics and wants something. The preview of an action movie, a new videogame, a donut/burger/anything but a salad, you name it. The Glorft come and screw it up. Coop gets mad, pulls some new super-move (usually from wrestling or a reference to pop culture) out of his ass and saves the day. Then he either gets something better than what he wanted or doesn't and is sad. Despite that, I really rather liked the show. Thing is, it ended. It had Megas XLR destroy the Glorft and save humanity. They kind of started on a new plot, but I had stopped watching by then.

As I recall Samurai Jack never got a proper finale so as much as it pains me not to pick MEGAS I'm am going to hand it to Jack.

It was cartoon, and it was absolutely hilarious.


Before your time maybe?

Anyhow back on topic Love them Both would initally say megas but they did wrap that series nicely with the battle against coups evil self that said I don't think Jack ever got a any sense of closure to it unless I missed that episode So I guess I've got to go with jack

Samurai jack.

The theme song was catchy and amazing. I also really liked the futuristic dystopian wasteland, it reLly gave the sense of being in another world.

HAS to be Samurai Jack, for one reason: Samurai Jack had a preconceived end goal, namely the destruction of Aku and the return to his time, followed by a second face-off with Aku had he defeated him in the future first.

Megas was a great show, don't get me wrong, but I really don't think it had any kind of endgame goal. We had Megas, we had Kiva trying to get those two idiots to use Megas properly, but I don't think there was ever any all-consuming enemy that had to be defeated, no final goal for the team to face. If it got the green light to be "continued" it'd probably be in the same sense as Thundercats and Voltron and be a re-imagining, NOT a continuation.

What Samurai Jack needs is a continuation, pure and simple. Even if we can't get the same team as before to create it, the story had a clear ending that we never got to see, and I for one DESPERATELY want to see that ending.
