TV animation counts as animation, but if you're going to debate the best that animation has to offer, looking at the garbage on TV is pointless.
Well, that's the point, isn't it? Animes that air as TV shows in Japan sometimes have animation that's almost in the same league as American animated movies because the animation business in Japan is so huge.
Animated TV in Japan is profitable enough that they can sink the money into those shows to make them look pretty spectacular (aside from the bland style). We've seen some of that here, as well. Gargoyles and Justice League/Justice League Unlimited actually boasted some pretty impressive animation themselves on a few episodes. It's just far more common in Japan.
