Eh, if you look at old tv animation , it’s pretty piss poor. Not very quality at all. Even the 70’s animation always had hairs and dirt on the frames. Really annoyed me as a kid.

If we’re talking cheap productions like Hanna-Barbara stuff, yeah for sure.

There’s plenty of good American animation too, though. Disney movies were always top class, as were most of the Looney Toons and Tom & Jerry among other TV animation. Donald Bluth movies also come to mind.

The original Duck Tales series from the late 80s is another good example of high budget quality animation.
classic Tom & Jerry is Hanna-Barbera, although started out at MGM in the 40s.
