Watch "Global Politics in 30 Seconds" and then try to tell me otherwise.<BR/><BR/>"Ren and Stimpy" - It's both a throwback to older cartoons and a giant leap forward.<BR/><BR/>As a kid:<BR/><BR/>"Battle of the Planets" - in post-Star Wars America, nothing was better. I am glad they are finally making this into a movie.<BR/><BR/>"Speed Racer" - iconic show, filled with memorable episodes. The Mammoth Car? The Melange robot car? The race through the volcano?? I hope the Wachowskis don't screw this up.<BR/><BR/>"Jonny Quest" - This needs to be made into a movie, period. Of course, Hadji will need to be turned into a white, photogenic American, given the current climate.<BR/><BR/>"Astro Boy" - heart-tugging storyline meets clever design. One of my earliest memories.<BR/><BR/>www.therecshow.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-907928872183762741.post-82302993661284683172007-04-17T12:36:00.000-07:002007-04-17T12:36:00.000-07:00PachecoSimpsons is a slippery slope.

I still can't believe they pulled off half of that stuff.<BR/><BR/>I'd put Season One of <I>The Critic</I>. It was hilarious, but in Season Two, they tried to give our "protagonist" a love interest, and the show got so boring that I couldn't finish watching the series.<BR/><BR/>To me, <I>The Simpsons</I> seems almost too easy to put on a list. Plus, does its lackluster performance in recent years tarnish its previous reputation? To paraphrase <I>High Fidelity</I>, is it in fact fair to criticize a once-great artist for his latter day sins? It's not a TERRIBLE show now, but I'm in no rush to watch new episodes.<BR/><BR/>I'm down with <I>Family Guy</I>, though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-907928872183762741.post-48778434440796370462007-04-17T12:24:00.000-07:002007-04-17T12:24:00.000-07:00OK, now we're in my domain!1. Ren & Stimpy - John ...OK, now we're in my domain!<BR/><BR/>1. Ren & Stimpy - John Kriclafusi continues to be one of my favorite animators, bar none. Even though the first two seasons are my favorites, I love the whole series. If you haven't picked up the DVD of the lost episodes of R&S, I'd suggest it. Each episode in the compilation is nowhere near safe for kiddie consumption, but for those of us who remember when, it's an interesting extension of where the series naturally needed to progress (or regress depending on your viewpoint).<BR/><BR/>2. Tom Goes To The Mayor - This entire series was recently released on DVD to little fanfare, but this show has been one of my favorites in recent memory. The dry, slow humor is definitely not for everyone. In fact, this was one of the most polarizing shows on [adult swim]... people either loved or hated it. I loved it.<BR/><BR/>3. Beavis & Butt-head - I laughed just as hard at the reruns on MTV2 as I did at the first runs 14 years earlier. That's good comedy.<BR/><BR/>4. Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist - This is another one with slow, dry humor. The stand-up comedian cameos on the Dr.'s couch every week really made this show for me. I also really liked Squigglevision, which was brought back in Home Movies to somewhat lesser effect.<BR/><BR/>5. The Maxx - This wasn't a Liquid Television offshoot, but it was part of MTV's animation offering in the early 90's and was every but as bizarre and beautiful as Aeon Flux, but for some reason The Maxx always called to me just that little bit more.<BR/><BR/>Honorable mentions go to The Venture Brothers, Mission Hill, Dungeons & Dragons, GI Joe, The Brak Show, and Cartoon Planet.<BR/><BR/>Stewie's ocular blood vessel blowout is my absolute favorite Family Guy moment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-907928872183762741.post-41738621104566074402007-04-17T11:58:00.000-07:002007-04-17T11:58:00.000-07:00Thank you Elijah.
