If my memory is correct, the entire Peppa Pig[1] TV Series was done in Flash. Many other popular TV series were done entirely in Flash. A good friend and fellow Flash champion, Chris Georgenes[2], did quite a lot of good animations during the early days of Flash.

This show is a masterclass in animation, I have to say. Everything is built out of essential geometric shapes, yet has an incredibly strong character. Brilliant stuff.

I think it looks kind of terrible to be honest. I'm not surprised at all it's made with flash. It looks like the sort of thing a talentless non-artist who can only make basic shapes like me could manage.

Peppa Pig is much better animated IMO. Or should I say much better drawn. It doesn't have much animation either but the people that do the drawing are clearly better artists.

My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic was done in Flash. And that show went on for nine seasons.

Also afaik the first season of Bob's Burgers was done in Flash.

Some episodes of Harvey Birdman were done with Flash:

I think some of the early Venture Bros. eps were too.
