What cartoons are you talkin' 'bout, DJ?
The only ones I can think up (that I know well enough to comment) are Roswell Conspiracies (stylized animation, cool stories), Beast Machines (cool CGI, cool stories), Roughnecks (cool CGI, cool stories), Gargoyles (so-so animation [resulting from different artists on some eps.], cool stories), and Invasion America (stylized/bad animation, cool stories).

They may be getting more annoying because you are getting older.
BTW Space Ghost is the FUNNIEST cartoon ever.
I don't know what the shows creators are smoking to come up with that stuff, but it is so off the wall!!!!!!
I think the funniest cartoon right now, is Nickelodeon's Sponge Bob. But Looney Toons will for ever be the best cartoons ever.
Space Ghost and the Simpsons are HILLARIOUS!
"Meet our unreasonable demands!"
"But... you haven't made any yet!"
"That's why they're unreasonable!"
Just so everyone knows, I feel that The Simpsons is the funniest and most entertaining show ever. The more times I see the show, the funnier it gets. One of my favorites is when Homer thinks Bart is turning gay and takes him to a steel mill to somehow turn him straight. Anyone see that part? Hilarious!!! Of course I couldn't possibly lable any one episode as my favorite because they all work together to make one familiar, humorous family. Anyone love Simpsons as much as I do? For anyone who is bored, give me a Simpsons quote and I will tell you the episode. Try to stump me :O)

Im afraid I'm going to have to agree with theahnfahn and Dave Maul, the simpsons will always be my favorite show period, they rule in every catagory you put them in. The thing i love the most about them is, that you can watch the same episde 20 times, and laugh at something different every time.

What about Futurama, also by Matt Groening? That's a really funny show, but it's only funny if you look really closely at the episode, and know a lot about technology. For instance, in one episode, there is a robot named i-Zac. Who gets that?

I said it once and I'm going to say it again, I don't like The Simpsons, It's very immoral.
And badly drawn and...

I don't watch cartoons anymore. I'm all grown up and going on to 9th grade in two weeks.
God, help me.
Kid, I turn 21 in a coupla months, and I'm about to start University and I still watch toons.
And I love Futurama BTW, much better than The Simpsons. Most of the humour is SF-related which means I get most of the in-jokes. Plus Bender's cool.

Call me spoiled, but I think the recent "Cartoon Cartoons" on the Cartoon Network are the funniest since Ren & Stimpy (which kicked, boy was it twisted).
PowerPuff Girls
Johnny Bravo (not so new actually)
Dexter's Lab
The other "somewhat recent" cartoon I enjoy alot is "Batman: the Animated Series" (much better than the "Batman/Superman Adventures"). Not funny, but good action, and sharp, stylized animation.
I'm not a big fan of modern Japanese Anime.
Of course except on vacations, I probably watch less than four hours of TV a week (unless you count renting a movie on weekends), so I take what I can get.

I agree with Pedro, The Simpsons is funny but it's badly drawn.

Pinky and the Brain is the funniest cartoon ever!

I agree Kurgan, Ren And Stimpy was one of the funniest cartoons of its time, in fact, they just put it back on the air......umm...let me think....i think its on Nickelodeon at 4:00pm eastern, if anyone's interested.
I dont think that Futureama comes anywhere close to being as good as the Simpsons, but it is a funny show, none the less.
BTW, what is everyone's favorite quote form the simpsons? Theres so many good ones. One of my favorites is:
>>>>>"Me fail english? That's unpossible!"

Mine is "I Can't Wait To Eat That Monkey!"-Grandpa Simpson

SIMPSONS QUOTES!!!!!!!!! I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!
Some of these are taken from a variety of locations, and some are grossly remembered and reproduced by yours truly.
Homer: Mmmm... Open-faced club sand wedge.
Homer: Look at these low, low prices on famous brand-name electronics!"
Bart: Don't be a sap dad. These are just crappy knock-offs.
Homer: I know a genuine 'Panaphonics' when I see one. And look! There's Magnet Box and Sorny!

Homer: Kill my boss? Do I dare live out the American Dream?
Homer: (whining that there is nothing good on t.v.) Marge, I'm bored...
Marge: Why don't you read a book, then?
Homer: Because I'm trying to reduce my boredom.
Lisa, if the Bible has taught us nothing else -- and it hasn't -- it's that girls should stick to girls' sports, such as hot-oil wrestling, foxy boxing, and such-and-such.
Reporter: Don't you think it's dangerous to send civilians into space?
Homer: I'll handle this...the only danger in space is if we land on the terrible Planet of the Apes...wait a minute...Statue of Liberty...THAT WAS OUR PLANET! YOU MANIACS! YOU BLEW IT UP! DAMN YOU! DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!
Lisa: "Grandpa, how'd you take off your underwear without taking off your pants first?"
Grandpa: "I don't know!"
Mr. Burns: Well Smithers, another Friday night is upon us, What will you be doing? Something gay no doubt?
Smithers: Wha...? I...
Mr. Burns: You know, mothers lock up your daughters, Smithers is on the town!
Smithers: Eh, eh, eh, exactly sir.
Mr. Burns: Who is this Homer Simpson?
Smithers: Actually, he thwarted your campaign for governor, you ran over his son, he saved the plant from meltdown, and his wife painted you in the nude.
Mr. Burns: Doesn't ring a bell.
Marge: Bart looks different
Homer: New glasses?
Marge: He looks disturbed
Homer: Probably misses his old galsses
Groundskeeper Willie: I dinna cry when me own father was hanged for stealin a pig, but I'll cry now.

Abe: I'll be deep in the cold, cold ground before I acknowledge Missoura!

Postoffice guy: Okay, Mr. Burns - what's your first name?
Homer: I don't know.
Milhouse: Not only am I not learning, I'm forgetting stuff I used to know.
Milhouse: We started out like Romeo and Juliet, but it ended up in tragedy.
Ralph: And my doctor said I wouldn't have so many nose-bleeds if I kept my finger out of there.
Ralph: And when the doctor said I didn't have worms any more, that was the happiest day of my life.
Ralph: My parents won't let me use scissors. (class laugh)
Hoover: The children are right to laugh, Ralph. These scissors couldn't cut butter.
Ralph: Can you open my milk, Mommy?
Hoover: I'm not mommy, Ralph. I'm Ms. Hoover.
Lisa: You might say I'm trying to bring out the Milhouse in Nelson.
Milhouse: But I'M Milhouse!!
Milhouse: Remember the time when he ate my goldfish and you lied to me and said I never had any goldfish? Then why would I have the bowl Bart, why would I have the bowl.
Mr. Burns: Hey Smithers, this reminds me of that fat man I used to ride to work.
Homer: Thats why white people are called "Lenny" and black people are called "Carl".........WHOOSH!
Homer: (Homer shoving down shrimp after shrimp)
Frying Dutchman Employee: Wow! Look at that man go!
Captain Pete: Aye, 'tis no man. 'Tis a remorsless eating machine!
Homer: (Talking about Bart's new dog Laddie) I don't think I like the new dog. He's kinda snooty.

Homer: Yeah! Do you think he noticed?
Willie: Grease me up woman!
That is all for now!!! I love Simpsons!!! Best show ever!!!

ROTFL Oh god! You guys are bringing back memories!!
How about this one:
To the Flinstones theme:
Simspon, Homer Simpson,
He's the greatest guy in history
From the town of Springfield
He's about to hit a chesnut tree.
I almost died laughing when I saw this one.

Yeah, there are some really funny jokes in The Simpsons. Anyone seen Mayored To the Mob, guest-starring Mark Hamill? That's great!
Announcer: Tag Team Robot Wrestling! It's the mighty robots of Battlestar Galactica, vs. the gay robots of Star Wars!
(On of the BG robots jumps on C-3PO's head.)
C-3PO: Oh my, save me, Artoo!
(Artoo beeps, turns and wheels away.)
C-3PO: Oh, you stupid little tramp! You're so boring! I hate you!

That was great! How about in the same episode when the Mafia guys says to Mark Hamil, "What are you gonna do you never even finished Jedi school." (or something like that). That was hilarious.
Homer: That guy sure can dance!
Mayor: He looks awfully familiar...
Homer: I think I saw him in "Rent" or "Stomp" or "Clomp" or some piece of crap!
Definitely one of the better episodes to date. If you haven't seen it, check it out next time it's shown.

My favorite Simpsons episode is the one where Krusty is reunited with his father. I reallly liked it when, after Krusty said that he always followed in his fathers footsteps, when Homer said to Bart: "Son, you don't have to follow in my footsteps" and Bart looks at him and says: " That's okay, dad, I don't even like using the bathroom after you." I lose it every time I see thatt part.
If I said that to my father, I propably wouldn't be alive to tell about it, not that my father smacks us or anything, it's just not proper to say momething like that to your father.
------------------
No!
I am your father.
That's special Pedro...anway back to The Simpsons. Remember the one when Lisa had a crush on Nelson and she had MIllhouse pass Nelson a note that said guess who likes you. When he looked back Millhouse was twitching his eyebrows suggestively at him so he kicked the crap out of him. That was hilarious.
