Topic: The Cartoon Poll Posted: February 27 2007 at 21:14 |
I pick South Park.
It's consistantly funny and manages to be a rather poignant (lots of times) social commentary and fun/funny satire. Some people call this "preaching" but hey...to each his own.
Sorry I included so many I know will not be voted on but I mean...who knows?
And also I'm sure this has been done before...but people change
P.P.P.P.P.S.
--The ton ten listed are my top 10 favorite cartoons (in order).

Simspons, still a great comedy. And it most likely will be in 10 more years too.

Sure is...though the recent season has disappointed me to say the least. Simpons hayday:
Season 3/4 - 8.
In my opinion.
I'd maybe maybe give Season 9 too.

I went with South Park just because it is amazing and satirical. Although the Boondocks comes close for the same reason.

"The Venture Brothers" is the funniest, and just keeps getting better.
Sometimes I wonder if one of the writers is someone I grew up with. Some of the jokes are right out of stuff my buddies and I kidded around about.

that's neat, and probably makes the show a bit more special than others might be.
neat.

Other. Phantom 2040 was way too ahead of its time. Fascinating plot, awsome artwork. Everyone looked like Mick Jagger for some reason. And yes, I prefer this cartoon to Aeon Flux, because of the clever reinterpretation of the Phantom character.

South Park, I have all but the newest season on DVD. Quality television.

At the present moment, I voted for The Venture Bros., such a great show! As for some of the others: South Park isn't funny anymore, I don't like the concepts of the episodes. The Simpsons is the best cartoon ever made, but is way past its prime. Futurama was a really good show, I wish it hadn't ended. I wish I watched more Robot Chicken, I always seem to miss it. Sealab 2021 was HILARIOUS until the guy who played Captain Murphy died, his replacement character on the show sucked. Fairly Oddparents is mildly amusing, but I don't watch it too much anymore. And I never liked Spongebob Squarepants... way too juvenile of a show, and too much stupid humor.

and that's why you're my new best friend!
actually i have season dvds too. nine comes out soon.
what's with people dissing the new south park episodes?
they are great too...
except for "a million little fibers" which sounds like the spongebob writers took a shot at writing a real cartoon. it's um...nicht so gut...

Oh, Spongebob Squarepants has incredible jokes, such as the one of the episode in wich Patrick and spongebob become parents of a baby clam. I mean, when they both walk by the streets with their "baby", and a fish that is passing by watch them and thinks "Seasponge + Starfish = Clam???". You can't say that this is not the work of a genius comediant...

I somehow like The Fairly Odd Parents, don't ask me why...
Futurama has no votes, I've surprised! It's a seriously amusing cartoon once you get into it.
