Title: Animated Shows
Post by: Yeti on July 12, 2005, 11:07:18 AM
I love the animated shows they have out.  Maybe because I have an eight year old mentality, I don't know, but I love them.  My new favorite is one I wouldn't watch when it first came out because the lead character is a Cowboys fan.  But recently I started watching King of the Hill and it cracks me up, I'll tell you what.  Who doesn't have a friend like Boomhauer?  Great sub plots like Josephs real dad and the Laoation neighbors.  Hanks mistress, propane and propane accessories.  Funny stuff.

What animated show is your favorite?

King of the Hill is great, but I'm really into Family Guy, can't get enough of the show.  I used to be a die-hard Simpsons fan, but after the 15 +/- years it's just not the same anymore.

Tom Goes to the Mayor may be the WORST show on television right now.

Family Guy has recently moved past the Simpsons, but just barely.

AquaTeenHungerForce is awesome as well.

I used to hate Futurama, but it has grown on me.

Used to love South Park, still enjoy it, but not as obsessed anymore.

King of the Hill gets a big 'meh' from me. It's funny from time to time, but usually I could take it or leave it.

Did you see the sneak preview of 12 Oz. Mouse (http://www.adultswim.com/clips/index.html) the other week? :-D

i saw it.  it was pretty bad IMO.  Maybe the horrendous animation killed it for me.  I can do cheesy (Sealab, ATHF), but that was godawful.

Family Guy and South Park are my current clear favorites, with the Simpsons narrowly behind.  I'll also tune into American Dad, because the humor style is obviously similar to Family Guy.

I'll watch Family Guy, Simpsons and South Park...but I won't go out of my way to watch them (or anything else, really). Could never get into King of the Hill, really...seems sort of boring to me.

South Park and Aqua Teen Hunger Force. I've got me a mad crush on Meatwad and I'm not ashamed to admit it.

I love King of the Hill, Simpsons, Family Guy and South Park.

I just started watching some of the Aqua Teen Hunger Force shows because a guy at work watches it. Pretty funny.

These days I stick to Family Guy and Futurama. I've caught American Dad twice, but I can live without it.

I'm like a trained monkey with Simpsons reruns. I haven't watched a new episode in a while but I watch every day when I get home from work. They would have to go off the air completely for me to stop watching.
Title: Re: Animated Shows
Post by: MadMarchHare on July 12, 2005, 01:44:08 PM
Family Guy, and Robot Chicken is awesome.  For a 15 min show, I get at least 4 good laughs.  That's more than I ever got out of the entire run of Friends.

I'm pretty much the same way.  Can't tell you the last time I watched them on a Sunday night, but when I get home from work it's the first thing I turn on.

I watched The Simpsons all the time while in college.

That was 12 years ago.  :'(

I haven't watched it more than a handful of times since I graduated, though I do tend to watch the House of Horrors special every year.

I have caught the occasional King of the Hill.

Saw South Park once or twice, and it irritated me.  Never saw Family Guy or Futurama.  Never heard of the other one.

Nothing beats Bugs Bunny.

Robot Chicken is on at midnight EST on the Cartoon Network, from the guys who made Family Guy.  Basically, they do Harryhausen animation with action figures from the 70's and 80's, doing really crazy shtein.  Very surreal, crass humor.

Post by: T_Section224 on July 12, 2005, 02:27:35 PM
midnight, no wonder i've never heard of or seen it.  i'm lucky if i make it to 11:00, of course i did last night because of the back-to-back episodes of the family guy, couldn't miss them.

The network that's known as Cartoon Network when [Adult Swim] isn't on.

It's actually by Seth Green and a bunch of guys without other major writing or directing credits. Seth Green plays Chris on Family Guy, but that's the extent of the connection. Maybe you were thinking of American Dad?

American Dad's not so great, the alien Roger is the only character who really stands out to me.

Aren't both the guys behind Robot Chicken voices on Family Guy?  I know FG is Seth McFarlane's baby, but I thought both the RC guys were associated there.

The co-creator with Seth Green comes from the world of comic books. Seth MacFarlane did a couple voices on Robot Chicken (as do many other famous people).

I watch a few Adult Swim shows on occasion. Simpsons when I remember the show is on. I used to watch King of the Hill but I stopped (no real reason other than I don't really watch TV -it's usually only on for background noise) and right now I DVR Justice League Unlimited and watch that. Robot Chicken is ok, but I don't think it's all that funny. It's more miss than hit for me most of the time.

Robot Chicken is a nice way to kill 15 minutes, but that's pretty much all it's good for. The whole "Killy Bunny" thing was kinda cool.
