techincally, of that list, only Family Guy, The Simpsons. South Park, PPG, and Futurama are syndicated, all of them having at least 72 episodes produced.

im not sure about Ren and Stimpy, but the rest never lasted more than a season(and the last one the list is on the bubble not to return).

Family Guy, Simpsons, South Park (usually) and occasionally Futurama. None of the others I thought were funny. Especially not Aqua Teen Bukkake Force.

At first I didn't think Aqua Teen Hunger Force was very funny either. In fact, I thought it was outright stupid. But it's stupidity, or rather, the stupidipidy of the characters, specifically Meatwad, and Shake, are hilarous. Especially with their neighbor Carl.

I also think the "Villains" are histerical. Especially the 2 dimensional old 80's looking graphic moon guys. And when they had a meeting of all the super villains, trying to come up with a name for their super villain group, was funny beyond words.

I guess you had to be there :D

Ah, yea, my friend likes that. I can't get into stupid humor (in movies either), it just ends up reminding me of stupid people, and they're not funny.. :) South Park gets this way sometimes, and turns totally un-funny. (Though the verbal reamings are always good)

Back in the days when I'd access to a TV I used to watch Rocko's Modern Life next to Ren & Stimpy and The Simpsons. Nowadays I watch Futurama & Simpsons on DVD.

I'm a big Simpsons fan, as well as Futurama. I recently saw a few episodes of Family Guy and Aqua Teen Hunger Force; both seem pretty funny. Going back a little, I used to watch the original Ninja Turtles, as well as Disney classics like Darkwing Duck, TaleSpin, Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers, and DuckTales (go '80s children! :D). I can't stand most of what's on Cartoon Network, except for Johnny Bravo and the occasional Ed, Edd, and Eddy or Kids Next Door. (Powerpuff Girls are for 5-year-old girls, and Courage is just...weird :P). My parents never let me watch much Nick as a kid, but I do enjoy Invader Zim, and even the occasional Hey Arnold. My favorite Nick toon, and one of my favorites of all time, was the Angry Beavers. "Spoot!" :D (Best episode had to be when they were sitting around a campfire telling a story to each other...man, that was funny :P).

Nuts, I forgot that, as well as Animaniacs and Tiny Toons. Of course, classic Looney Tunes are the greatest example of animation that has ever been and will ever be created :D.

Dude, I totally remember Darkwing Duck, Chip & Dale (Zipper was da bomb!), and Duck Tales! Those were awesome when I was a kid! Especially Darkwing Duck, who else remembers "I am the terror that flaps in the night!"

The Spider-Man Animated Series in the 90s was cool too, great voice actor who really nailed the right attitude for all those quips.

The last cartoon I watched was Batman Beyond, cool stuff.

Red vs. Blue 0wns.
If i were to make a list i'm sure spongebob would be on it somewhere though.

Also, the chief engineer at the tv station where I work looks exactly like the Dad from the Family Guy just less chubby. The resemblance is uncanny. :oops:

aw crap Jeff, I forgot all about Eek the Cat! lol. Ed, Edd & Eddy have to be one of my favorites too.

Also Beuf, Thundercats and Thundar the Barbarian weren't supposed to be 'funny'. Neither really was Speedracer. They're just funny as hell to watch now because of all the flaws in them and the horrible artwork :P

oh, and Kur, the rumors of The Rock playing anything of the sort were actually for a proposed 'Duke Nukem' movie. Not Johnny Bravo. Either way he'd be horribly wrong for both parts.

Yeah, Simpsons and South Park. I have all the seasons they have released for Simpsons on DVD. I love the social satire in both shows. Nothing like smoking a joint and watching a little Bart the Murderer.

Undergrads probably would have been mentioned earlier if there wasn't other material that wanted to be mentioned first. Not to mention that most people never heard about it until Comedy Central started running re-runs of it.

I barely remember when it first came out.
