The best cartoon on tv right now is Adventure Time.

Amazing show.  Cute, creepy, funny, imaginative, subversive, and just plain strange.  I'm so glad my son gets to grow up with great shows like this.


After being turned into a giant foot by a "magic man", Finn falls into a depression.  He overcomes this and sings a song...

That's good, how about Flapjack?  Also great for all of the same reasons.

The guy who created Adventure Time was a storyboard artist on Flapjack.

ADVENTURE TIME is the best. When I was a kid literally the only good cartoons we got were the old Bugs Bunny and Tom & Jerry cartoons. Then as soon as I start to outgrow cartoons they come out with great stuff like BATMAN and ANIMANIACS and REN & STIMPY. I still          watched them, of course, but how great would it have been to grow up with that stuff?

My friend and I are seniors in college and this is one of our best shows out of anything.

What's wrong with autotune?
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

Thanks for recommending these shows. I've been enjoying both Adventure Time and Flapjack over the past couple of weeks thanks to this thread.

My kids demanded that I watch Cartoon Network's "Mad" TV Show.  I probably would not have watched it of my own volition, but I ended up laughing quite a bit.  I was pleased to see that the Mad brand still stood out from everything else around it; whether you find it funny or not, the show does not look like anything else on kid's TV.
