Generations of kids know who hippie Shaggy is because "Scooby-Doo" shows have been in production since 1969. Baby Boomers know him from the original series, while younger kids know him from "Be Cool, Scooby-Doo!," which ended in 2018. Wherever you know him from, Shaggy is relatable as heck!

1. Dave Barbarian
   Ron Stoppable
2. T-Bone
   Grim

"The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy" had no more relatable character than Grim, a grim reaper who's forced to be best friends with two odd little kids. Because they won a bet with him, he's forced to put up with their nonsense, but that doesn't stop him from being hilariously savage.

1. Ashley Spinelli
   Tico
2. Kuki Sanban
   Samurai Jack

   Reaper
2. The Crimson Chin
   Donnie Thornberry

Dash Baxter is a villain from "Danny Phantom." He bullies Danny and the other students but gets away with it because he's good at football. However, he's sort of tragic because he seems to know that his high school years will be the best ones of his life. Sad!

1. Kevin Levin
   Stickybeard
2. Rick Sanchez
   Mr. Burns

Oh, Rick. There would be no "Rick and Morty" without mean grandpa Rick Sanchez, and yet he's difficult-AF to like. Rude to his daughter as well as his grandchildren, Rick is A LOT. On the other hand, he does know how to bend space and time, so ... props?

   Rick Sanchez
2. Samurai Jack
   Dave Barbarian

Although he's a war prince, Dave (of "Dave the Barbarian) is a lover, not a fighter. Tremendously powerful, he'd rather cook or do crafts than engage in battle, since he's very sensitive to pain. My dude, we can relate!

   Dash Baxter
2. T.J. Detweiler
   Donnie Thornberry

One of the main characters on "The Wild Thornberrys," Donnie was raised by orangutans after his parents were killed by poachers. Even though he lives with humans now, he's still majorly high-key. Reminds us of our brothers!

1. Boris Kropotkin
   Mr. Burns
2. Stickybeard
   Rick Sanchez

Mr. Burns might be the most dangerous Big Bad on "The Simpsons," if it weren't for his hilarious weakness. Without his assistant Smithers' help, could he even cross the street?

1. Dash Baxter
   T.J. Detweiler
2. Samurai Jack
   Ralph Wiggum

"The Simpsons" wouldn't be "The Simpsons" without Ralph Wiggum, son of Police Chief Clandy. Hopelessly dorky, Ralph is famous for his amazingly daft catchphrases, such as "Me fail English? That’s unpossible" and "Oh boy, sleep! That's where I'm a Viking."

1. Marceline the Vampire Queen
   Ashley Spinelli
2. Kuki Sanban
   Dee Dee

   Sam Manson
2. Wuya
   Kimiko Tohomiko

Sideshow Mel (of "The Simpsons" fame) is Sideshow Bob's replacement. After Sideshow Bob got caught framing Krusty the Clown and was sent to jail, Sideshow Mel took over as Krusty's sidekick. Educated at Cornell, Mel is overqualified for his position, which makes him bitter AF (is he a millennial?).
