i’m surprised by the number of ones i’d forgotten about, like south park until you mentioned it on here (maybe because of sleep deprvivation)
and i thought you would have a lot more adult swim shows on here
happy tree friends goes too far to a point that it’s stupid but still cute
robot chicken is good sometimes but it can be weird
i had never seen harvey birdman but heard of it and that video isn’t working though i would like to see it eventually
i never thought of invader zim as being something like this, but i watched that video of it and i thought it was very hard to hear
like invader zim, i was never sure if ren and stimpy was violent or anything like that, and i think you made that clear but that video wasn’t working either
i’d never heard of drawn together and i think it’s too much like robot chicken
itchy and scratchy (treehouse of horror) was probably the worst thing about the simpsons but i have wondered if it has any episodes not from the simpsons
i forgot about family guy too (most of it sucks now)
also forgot beavis and butthead too, never seen any of it from tv but i love beavis and butthead do america
you should have put shin-chan on here
and dr. tran (but that’s only a few really short online videos)

You neglected to mention that one-season sleeper……The Oblongs–13 episodes of pure genius.

Never have nuclear waste, social disparity, sexual addiction, physical deformity and elder abuse been so hilarious.

Best. Cartoon. Ever.

Superjail is indeed one of the goriest/best cartoons (for adults) out there. I wasn’t allowed to watch Ren & Stimpy or Beavis & Butthead as a child, and look at me now, I’m completely obsessed with Aqua Teen Hunger Force, I have a tattoo of Bender (Futurama) on my right forearm, and I’m going to be an art teacher full time and a cartoonist if I get lucky. I can only hope that my cartoons shock and disturb people, otherwise, what’s the point? It would just be another boring cartoon on Nick or Cartoon Network that ends up getting canceled after the first season.

The Oblongs is another one that should be on here. A quadriplegic dad, a wig wearing, bald, alcoholic, sex fiend mother, Siamese twins, a daughter with a huge tumor growing out of her forehead, and I don’t even KNOW what’s wrong with the other son Ollie, but it’s something serious. OH and the theme song explains how the family was in a chemical spill and that’s how they ended up that way. Surprisingly though, my friends five year old loves the show and doesn’t catch any of the bad stuff somehow. Oh the media and children.

Family Guy sucks now. It use to be funny,now it’s just more junk based on shock value like Robot Chicken. Blech!
I agree with the choices as your list is based on what we would not want our kids watching. I found Harvey Birdman to be hilarious at times though but yes having kids watch it would really confuse them. Flintstone as a crime boss was funny,but could confuse kids who had seen The Flintstones.
As for the “brain damaged rubbish Hanna-Barbera used to make.” said by one very sad pathetic person before? Well those were the great 70’s where we didn’t have all the pathetic violence and no-brain shock-value only garbage of today’s shows,video-games and movies.
After all when a writer is a no-talent hack they go for shock value and just throw everything else away. Seth MacFarlane we’re talking about you!
Best cartoons for kids? Well we probably wouldn’t want to watch them,because they’re too filled with happy things and very nice people. But you know what? Let the kids be kids and watch the “too nice” cartoons. They’ll grow up too fast anyway.

Drawn Together was pure genius. Thank god the dvd has Karaoke for songs like Black Chicks Tongue.
It is sadly missed.

Those would be bad for children, but bad cartoon values are everywhere. Even that show Doug was surprisingly racist. http://www.wolfgnards.com/index.php/2009/04/26/racism-funny-doug-funnie-that-is

You should check out Superjail on Adult Swim for a place on this list (and not in a fun way, either). It’s the cartoon version of gore porn. The inmates on the show are constantly stabbing and decapitating others. One episode had the inmates being turned into homicidal babies.

That Harvey Birdman clip sums up how crap it is this show was cancelled. How many of these other cartoons have ever been that clever?!
