Invader ZIM. And probably a lot of Adult Swim: Venture Bros., Sealab 2021, maybe Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

[–]LMMN 9 points10 points ago

  • The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack
  • Regular Show
  • Chowder

Pot.

[–]Tony1pointO 3 points4 points ago

I came here to post this. Curse you.

[–]ReigninLikeA_MoFo 11 points12 points ago

Dude. You just made my day.

[–]dirk_b[S] 7 points8 points ago

Ha I love it when the /r/trees spirit leaks

[–]Mynci 3 points4 points ago

Did Tycho Brahe have a moose?

Well I learned something today. I thought the only interesting thing about him was how he died.

[–]Goatsplosion 4 points5 points ago

My girlfriend and I got super baked about a week ago, sat down and watched the entire first season of Adventure Time. Shit was tops.

[–]Mynci 2 points3 points ago

Shit was so cash!

[–]selfabortion 7 points8 points ago

The External World It is a bit more dark and profane than A.T. though, so be warned. It's great though.

[–]MasterRidley614 4 points5 points ago

So much darker... shudder

[–]dirk_b[S] 2 points3 points ago

Okay I watched it. Definitely very dark.
I don't get it though? I mean, it just seems like a sequence of random events that have nothing to do with each other, or with anything at all.

[–]CultureofInsanity 2 points3 points ago

I'm going to go curl up in the fetal position now.

[–]areeuu -1 points0 points ago

That was some seriously pretentious bullshit

[–]cmerrett 1 point2 points ago

Explain

[–]dirk_b[S] 1 point2 points ago

As I commented before, without a response:

I don't get it though? I mean, it just seems like a sequence of random events that have nothing to do with each other, or with anything at all.

So yes, based on that it could be interpreted as 'pretentious bullshit'. You explain. Are we missing something?

[–]areeuu 2 points3 points ago

I think my problem with the animation is that it seems to try very hard and has an air of self-importance.

It is trying to mean so many things and because of this comes across as thinly-veiled.

[–]cmerrett 0 points1 point ago

Nope, was just curious as to what areeuu thought about it. I enjoyed it for the style of humour and the visuals. I'd be talking out my arse if I tried to come up with some deep, overall theme and explanation of it.

[–]selfabortion 0 points1 point ago

Was it the depictions of poop, the crude sexual displays, or the humorously random explosions that make you feel that way?

[–]areeuu 0 points1 point ago

...because things that could be classed as being immature are exempt from being pretentious... I'll just leave these here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloaca_(art) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artist's_shit

[–]selfabortion 1 point2 points ago

Ok

[–]Hraes 8 points9 points ago

Harvey Birdman. Probably Sealab 2021 and the sequels, Frisky Dingo and Archer.

[–]BoAd[!] 0 points1 point ago

Haha! Frisky... Haha! Cookies on dowels!

[–]serasuna 6 points7 points ago

There's a lot of stuff in this thread, so check that out.

[–]stoneyfly 12 points13 points ago

You might like the The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack. Pen Ward worked on this cartoon. It's like an above sea Sponge Bob. Also this was in the first episode I saw

[–]Jodash64 4 points5 points ago

seconding Flapjack. Adventure Time never would have made it without Flapjack blazing the trail.

[–]oaksparcel 2 points3 points ago

I was surprised that I would like this show. I don't see many new cartoons I can watch and not get bored.

[–]dirk_b[S] 2 points3 points ago

I feel exactly the same way. That's why I posted this thread, because I am hoping for more stuff like this.

[–]sunnydayrainparade 2 points3 points ago

[–]rocketsaurus 0 points1 point ago

Absolutely this. Fosters is amazing and just the right amount of whimsical.

[–]Odowla 2 points3 points ago

Archer.

[–]this_wasamistake 8 points9 points ago

Chowder and Regular Show? I'm going on the basis of they all make random faces/are really adorably dramatic.

[–]modestfish 1 point2 points ago

Bravest Warriors. Also done by Pendleton Ward!

[–]NoJeans 1 point2 points ago

GUMBALL

[–]bschlotz -5 points-4 points ago

For me, adventure time was a gateway drug to Ponies.

[–]JoinRedditTheySaid 8 points9 points ago

Yeah..... can't say the same for me, gladly.

[–]bschlotz 4 points5 points ago

Wow, thanks IYL, for punching my comment downvote V-card. Note to self- never mention ponies out of /r/mlp again %)

[–]LiquidDinnerTable -1 points0 points ago

For me, adventure time was a gateway drug to Ponies being a neo-furry.
