Yeah but keep in mind that, like so many other shows, it just goes way up in quality after the first season or so. Some of the first episodes are just bland, though you should definitely at the very least watch Him and Mojo's introductions.

Y'know, I don't tend to see Futurama or 'animated adult comedies' in general as cartoons. But you do bring up a good point, as Futurama is pretty much my favorite show of all time. Home Movies is an incredibly close second, and probably would have topped Futurama had it had the chance to be consistently good for as long as Futurama has, Beast With A Billion Backs notwithstanding. (I freaking LOVE Bender's Big Score. Bender's Game and Into the Wild Green Yonder were all right.)

Other AACs I quite like include Metalocalypse, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Family Guy (Not a big fan of the newer seasons), South Park on occasion, American Dad, The Boondocks, and holy hell Archer. Archer's only had two seasons, so my love meter for it isn't quite up to Futurama's or Home Movies', but damn it's good. So so so so so so good. It's seriously the best show you aren't watching.

I saw the first episode of Archer and it blew me away. The rest of it was still good, but not as much. The writing for episode 1 was just amazing.

Also, Ed, Edd n' Eddy was an awesome show. Just sayin'.
Still, Invader ZIM was a bit of a stretch for Nickelodeon. Back then, funny, today, DISTURBING. There are two episodes that really creep me out.
One was the series finale.
The other was when Gaz has a curse put on her that she can only eat hot dogs.

Although my best friend AND my sister love it. HOORAY FOR CABLE TELEVISION!

I watched one of my Top Cat DVDs last night. That is such an awesome show. I love it.

I agree. The fact that it was dark and disturbing is what made it great. It was fun, funny and awesome. Although, the scene in bestest friends with the "present" scared the tacos out of me.
