I am not a fan of Futurama. Just never got into it like I did the other shows. Plus I don't see why they had to bring it back after it ended the first time either. One I forgot to mention was King of the Hill. Used to get a few good laughs out of that show.

Indeed I found Futurama really great.  Who else loved these?  |

Also, has Spongebob not been mentioned?? I have no clue wtf is going on now with that show, but back in the day that show was hilarious I wasn't going to say anything but yeah...the first three seasons have some good moments (the ugly barnacle comes to mind). I can at least go back and watch some of those episodes and not feel like a complete idiot. Everything after Season 3 though...ugh. It's as if the creators suddenly decided they wanted to use the show to make children dumber. |

Haha yeah the first three seasons were the best, I actually have all of those episodes saved on my computer. Even as an adult I can still watch some of those episodes and get a good laugh.
This episode still cracks me up when I see it,

The reruns got very good ratings on Adult Swim, and the DVD's sold well. |

Have you ever noticed that every now and then you will be watching one of the Nicktoons thinking this is so for kids and they through in a great adult reference? This is one of my favourite examples from Rocko's Modern Life... ...the catch is that Heffer is a boy lol |

Lots of kid's shows do that. It always made me laugh that so many adults were up in arms over Disney but made barely a peep over shows on Nick or Cartoon Network (aside from Ren and Stimpy). Nothing beats Tom and Jerry. I love that cartoon. And Tex Avery cartoons are epic. You are now my soul brother!  I love Tax Avery's work, I loved to watch all the old cartoons on Cartoon Network by him, Chuck Jones, Bob Clampett, Merrie Melodies shorts, etc. Wish Boomerang would air those or that I had the channel to begin with to watch Swat Kats: |

My mom thinks The Simpsons went a little too far with their references to A Clockwork Orange though. That movie freaks her out. Of course they have done Kubrick a few times now. My favorite has always been The Shinning lol

My favorite has always been The Shinning lol It probably means I'm really simple but I can't see that clip without cracking up...Homer making that crazy face after claiming Marge is a scaredy cat and then screaming when he sees his reflection...the combo of that scream and the crude animation gets me every time. |

I totally forgot about Teen Titans. That was a great show. My favorite story line had to be Terra which was based on the DC Comics The Judas Contract storyline.

The main cartoon I sometimes get a bit teary at is the Superman: Doomsday movie when you see poor Martha having to watch her son die on TV. |
