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). ------------- I'm a reasonable man, get off my case |

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'm a reasonable man, get off my case |

I went with South Park just because it is amazing and satirical. Although the Boondocks comes close for the same reason. -------------  <font color=white>butts, lol[/COLOR] |

"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. ------------- a.k.a. H.T. http://riekels.wordpress.com" rel="nofollow - http://riekels.wordpress.com |

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. ------------- ¡Beware of the Bee! |

| 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... ------------- I'm a reasonable man, get off my case |
Posted By: cuncuna
Date Posted: February 27 2007 at 22:56
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... ------------- ¡Beware of the Bee! |

No sarcasm at all. It just happens that I'm very much into comedy. And, as a comedy amateru specialist, I do think that some moments on Spongebob are oscar material or something like that. ------------- ¡Beware of the Bee! |

Posted By: cuncuna
Date Posted: February 27 2007 at 23:04
Since I'm kind of devoted to pure comedy, i have to 50% agree with you. The fairly odd parents also presents some really unexpected jokes from time to time, like that one episode about Vicky being bad because of a bug, and Cosmo's relief about it, because ti was a bug and not corn. Very Monty Python stuff... ------------- ¡Beware of the Bee! |

I agree, that show doesn't get anywhere near as much respect as it deserves. On occasion it references things way above the targeted audience and other times it's just pure abusrdism. When it's good, it's very good ------------- <font color=white>butts, lol[/COLOR] |

I have Invader Zim season in avi format, since it is not availabe as DVD in this country. I specially like the Christmas episode, though I have the feeling that the author of the scripts is in seriuos need of psychiatric help. As for Wallace and Gromit, and, as I said, being a truly devoted fan of comedy, I have to say that those guys are the most clever writters / animators ever. ------------- ¡Beware of the Bee! |

The thing about futurama is that they kill their jokes because they presented a future in wich everything is possible. So, nothing is funny, because nothing unexpected can happen in a future in wich everything can happen. ------------- ¡Beware of the Bee! |

Simpsons.
I kinda like Fairly Oddparents myself. I know I'm repeating what was just said, but it does have a lot of humor for older audiences.
One of my favorites:
We looked everywhere for clowns, even congress. The place was full of clowns but none of them were funny.
Good show

South Park is the funniest now but I still picked the Simpsons because it formed about 70% of my sense of humour! It's been there since I was about 8 and it really paved the way for everything else.
But South Park is the most consistent by far! Loving Season 11!

For the past year or two...  King of the Hill
But of all time?!...
 RUGRATS!!!
Yes, Rugrats! I absolutely loved this show. I watched it every night with my sister, and sometimes my dad, religiously through most of my elementary school years. The show was absolutely fantastic, and i don't believe any Nickelodeon show has been as great about moral values, family ties, and just plain kids having fun as this show. The downfall came when that little neusence Dill caused Tommy to stop adventuring and thus making him be the softy baby sitter... what a jerk.
On a side note, i also enjoyed
Doug
All That!
The Amanda Bynes Show
Kablam!
Wishbone
Cat Dog
...and The Fairly Odd Parents (the last great show by Nickelodeon before I couldn't stand the crap they were dishing out any longer... and I was too old to watch the shows anyway)
Nickelodeon where did these classics go!?!?! And what the hell is the Naked Brothers Band?!?!
