    90s Simpsons were the best.

      I had never watched it, but I’m on season 5 right now and I’ve had a ton of fun watching it! Of course I’m from the 90s so having beepers and no wikipedia are familiar to me, I’d be curious how it comes off to people who have always had the internet.

    At the time, it was probably Ren & Stimpy or Space Ghost Coast to Coast. Both were unapologetically weird.

    In retrospect, probably Reno 911! Not only was it loaded with funny scenarios and running gags and tons of guest comics, but the physical comedy was really good. They were always tackling somebody or running over Junior with a Hummer or somesuch, and it was usually the main actors doing the stunts.

    Honorable mention to Strangers with Candy. It took the Seinfeld formula of a sitcom full of disagreeable people and amped the contempt to 11.

      That 70s show was a staple! Looking back it was one of very few sitcoms that were meant for teens in that era

    Well, gotta be Buffy. It was at the tail end of the nineties and lasted into the naughties, but it counts imo.

    It was just such a fun show for the era, and they managed to not only keep a consistent vibe, but turned out plenty of really intense shows despite the overall vibe being humor/action based

    Gargoyles. It aimed incredibly high for its target audience.

    If you had released it with a Japanese voice track and baked in low-quality subs as $30-for-two-episodes VHS tapes to a ‘grown up animation enthusiasts’ audience, it would probably have outsold freaking Naruto.

    matt frewer (max headroom!) in doctor, doctor

    only a few seasons, they never really gave the show time to find its footings but frewer is fucking hilarious and i lament he has not done more comedy.
