If I was up to date on those I'd probably agree, but I'm loving Scooby Doo: Mystery Inc at the moment. Those are some great cartoons.

Venture Bros for sure. But I also really love Adventure Time and Regular Show.

I completely forgot about Mystery Inc., I love the little nods to the original Scooby-Doo Where Are You. I hope it gets renewed for a second season.

For some reason I can't really get into Regular Show. Something about it makes me apathetic when watching an episode.

Mystery Inc is the straight-up business. I knew I was forgetting one in my last post.

All I've seen of Regular Show is people saying it rips off Nedroid, which seems pretty ridic. I need to watch that show.

They both have animals. They're both good. They're both funny. That's about it as far as similarities go. Nedroid goes to dark places a lot more than Regular Show. Also, Nedroid has zero characters voiced by Mark Hammil. So there's that.

Venture Bros would be a contender for best show ever period.

Adventure Time, Regular Show, and Scooby Doo: Mystery Inc are all solid gold.

It's not on anymore, but I loved The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack. A lot.

Speaking of shows that aren't on anymore, Transformers Animated is what I think of when I think of the Transformers now, and Spectacular Spider-Man is possibly the best version of Spider-Man in any medium.

Avengers:EMH is extremely hit or miss for me and I still don't think it comes close to any DC animated show (that I've seen. I'll admit there are probably some I haven't.), but the episodes that have hit have been great.

I could not sit through an entire episode of Superhero Squad. You have no idea how much it pains me to type that sentence.

Anyone who hasn't watched Darkwing Duck recently should do so immediately! I loved it as a kid and randomly came across the NES game a few months ago and it kinda snowballed from there

Loving Thundercats, waiting for Young Justice, loving Regular Show, Adventure Time and Gumball.

And I need my friggin' Venture Bros season 5. I NEED MY FIX, MAN!

After the early vignette episodes and it found its legs, Avengers EMH really fucking sings for me. Those are THE versions of the characters for me. I especially love the Hulk/Hawkeye dynamic.

Adventure Time may be my favorite thing right now.

Regular Show i like a lot when i'm in the mood for it. But when I'm not it's unwatchable to me. We have a weird relationship, Regular Show and I.

Thundercats is the stuff, though, man. Mashing it with Avatar was genius. I wish the toys weren't crap.

Archer is also brilliant.

I've lost touch with Adult Swim, sadly. Is there anything good there, these days, besides Venture Bros and Robot Chicken?
