Dinosaur King

This is a great show for the younger kids, but easily watchable by a 43 year old kid too. Cheesy jokes are still funny. Sure it has many similarities to shows like Pokemon, but it has proved to be a tried and true formula - and it still works this time around.

It follows the adventures of a bunch of kids trying to collect dinosaurs that have suddenly started to appear around the world. The dinosaurs take the form of cards at times - making them much easier to collect. They also take the form of much smaller and cuter dinosaurs for the 'Pikachu' factor.

It combines the use of 2d and 3d animation that sometimes doesn't work, but it this case it does integrate quite well.
