Cat party is still my favourite ringtone.

Do you have bluetooth?

Cat party? It’s all about Dog Party now.

I don't see Aeon Flux mentioned yet. The Maxx is very good too. Duckman I remember being hilarious, but I dunno if starring Jason Alexander counts as a deep cut.

[-] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 4 points 2 months ago

I'll 1 up you and go with Liquid Television, where Aeon Flux started-- like Tracy Ulman & the Simpsons.

[-] CaptDust@sh.itjust.works 14 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Xavier: Renegade Angel, dunno if it counts because it's computer animation but some good TV-MA psychedelic social satire

[-] badbrainstorm@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Vernon Chatman before South Park was great! Not that he wasn't great for SP.

Another that doesn't meet the qualification is Wonder Showzen. So great!

The Heart She Holler was pretty good too

12 oz. Mouse. Twelve is also the number of fans the show has.

Edit: shoutout to !12ozmouse@adultswim.fan where I am the only person who posts.

[-] ProdigalFrog@slrpnk.net 8 points 2 months ago

All I remember of that show was catching it on a VHS after I left it recording to grab squidbillies one night, and there was a scene of a shark trying to start a car for a really, really long time, which was pretty damn funny.

[-] pruwybn@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 2 months ago

That's a great episode lol

You're not gonna believe this, my upvote just got you to 12

Yeah loved that series, had no idea that it was ever considered to be continued

I remember loving this show as a kid! I still laugh when I think about "douchebag" written in cursive.

Fritz the Cat. Not to be confused with Felix the Cat. Fritz the Cat was, essentially, an adults only version of Felix. And by adult only I mean pornographic.

I'm also not seeing anyone mention Mission Hill so throw that onto the pile. It's hella good.

Also Clone High.

[-] arotrios@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Salute from the old skool! And oh my brother, does the internet archive have a treat for you...

[-] owenfromcanada@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago

+1 for Clone High. I still quote it regularly.

All of the adult swim shows like ATHF, Brak Show, Space Ghost Coast to Coast, Squidbillies, Home Movies, Metalocalypse, Harvey Birdman Attorney at Law, Sealab 2021, and probably a few others I can't remember. Also, not animated but I would put Sifl & Olly in the mix because it fucking rocks.

[-] pruwybn@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 2 months ago

Everybody should check out the adultswim.fan instance which has communities for all these shows as well as general ones like !adultswim@adultswim.fan and !tv_film@adultswim.fan

[-] badbrainstorm@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Heck yeah to all these!

I had a black cat with green eyes I named Sifl. Got attitude from quite a few people about what TF was wrong with me for naming a cat after syphilis...

Hoops is a recent one that cracked my shit up, and I was bummed didn't get another season of two

[-] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

Anyone else remember the Oblongs?

Drawn Together was hilarious. It ended because sponsors were too uncomfortable advertising alongside it. It could never get made today.

Obscure for people outside the UK:

SlackerCats - obscure, ran for half a season

Clerks The Animated Series - obscure, ran for half a season

Carol and the end of the world (Mainstream but wildly serene, surreal, and overtly human)

Moral Oral - pretty dark adult show

Ren and Stimpy - pretty dark for a kids show

I'm sure I'll think of a few more

[-] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

I'm surprised Ren and Stimpy made it in the obscure list. They were about as popular as anything when they were on.

Okay I haven't heard of a lot here.

I don't know if it's the most obscure or deep cut but my favorite vote goes to Moral Orel. It gets dark in a way that doesn't look like it.

Billy and Mandy and Duck Dodgers imo don't belong to this list

Surprised you didn't add the MTV one such as AEon Flux, The Head, The Maxx. Aeon in particular is a favorite of mine, watching it is very wtf. I think it should belong to this list.

Trip tank

Superjail

[-] glitchy_nobody@leminal.space 5 points 2 months ago

Ralph Bakshi made an animated series for HBO called Spicy City. It is very adult, and not something I see mentioned often.

[-] DadVolante@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Adding a few.

The Head, Liquid Television, The Maxx, Tom goes to the Mayor, Tripping the Rift, Primer, Tom and the Devil, The Critic, Sealab 2021, Frisky Dingo, Primal, Mission Hill , Friday: The Animated Series, Star Trek: The Animated Series, Aeon Flux, Assy McGee , Aqua Teen (not sure if this counts, honestly), Perfect Hair Forever, Superjail, Happy Tree Friends, Venture Bros - God tier I'm sure I'll think of others

[-] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Not really animated but not really not-animated.

The Fuccons. they're Fuccon fantastic!

Venture Bros is probably the best I've seen, but I also enjoyed

  • Primal
  • The Tick
  • Amazing Screw-On Head (only the pilot ever got made, but if you like it check out Creature Commandos)
  • Megas XLR

Also if you have kids and want to watch stuff with them that isn't brain rot, try Samurai Jack, Clone Wars (Tartakovsky's original), and Reboot.

[-] 1hitsong@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 months ago

I still rewatch episodes of Monkey Dust. If you like pitch black British humor, it's for you.

I mean that was advertised like crazy on comedy Central when it was on the air.

Same with the Oblongs when it was on adult swim. They had Will Ferrell on the show.

If you're going to list Space Ghost you have to have the Herculoids.
