Used to watch that show when I was young, like too young to actually get it or even find it funny.
I think it was all that crazy squiggle animation

Did you ever actually watch it? A good deal of the episodes would have flown right over my head if I was a kid.

Hell yeah, I watched it. I loved that cartoon when I was a kid (not to say I don't now). It was marketted as a kids cartoon, though, and aired at times when children watch tv.

Time always wins.

The show ran for four years, or something like that. It's not like it didn't have a good run.

Besides, once John K was pushed out of the project, it would have ran out of steam, anwyay.

Well, technically, Family Guy and Futurama also had reasonably long runs before they came back too. Overall though, even if my favorite shows that are not longer on were to return, I doubt they'd live up to my expectations anyway. I like what many good British shows (not specific to cartoons) have done over the years by only doing one or two series of a show before the writers/performers move onto another project.

I definitely agree that the show did lose some steam when John K. was fired, but there are still some pretty good episodes done without him.

YES.
This one made me "vibrate" at the end of each episode, but I liked it.

It made me feel squiggly all over. Tongue

Plus having all his patients be played by actual stand up comics was neat.

Idk, they work for me. Maybe you need to update flash or something?

Okay, I'm in the dark completely, here.

What's so funny about The Critic?
