Spongebob!

Thats all I can say.

The Simpsons was great, but not a fan of the newer episodes...at all.

TRANSFORMERS! Ghostbusters, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, The Simpsons, Futurama, Family Guy and American Dad

All classics.

On The Simpsons, the decline in quality for me has always been a two fold thing.

1. The fans they had in the 90's have grown up and the things we used to find funny, probably aren't as funny anymore. Maybe the humour hasn't changed and the quality dipped, maybe its us as the viewers who have changed and the newer younger generation do find it funny. Its like most things, children of the 80's and 90's KNOW that the new transformers isnt as good as the old, that turtles should ALWAYS be Hero's in a half shell, mutant and ninja and Ghosts should ALWAYS be busted.
2. Freshness, they've faced stiff comp from many different places, they paved the ways for shows such as Family Guy and South Park to be SO outrageous. The Simpsons couldn't really go off swearing and stuff now as it wouldnt be in keeping with the character of the show and after sooo many years, its neigh on impossible to come up with new ideas and take the characters new places like it is for newer shows like Family Guy.

The Simpsons is and always will be the Daddy of them all.


I never make predictions, and I never will.

Lou as mario FTW)  I know there are more ...  oh  DBZ  ( one of the best Action cartoons ever made )

I dunno how I could forget Pinky and the Brain and Animaniacs. Such great shows that we will never be able to see the likes of again. They were so brilliant and threw so many jabs at censorship...those were the days

The Simpsons(1991-1998) was quite simply the greatest show of all time let alone the greatest animated show ever. The amount of scope that show had for the time it came out was astounding.

I think in the 90s it's the only real show that jokes about 'everything' with good pacing and incredible originality. I think in today's landscape it's hard to imagine how groundbreaking that show really was.

South park ..said it best , the simpsons had done all ...lol
