I adore it. It's great. Genuine threats, solid cast and great animation. The only nagging thing I have against it is that the characters designs are sometimes are a bit too angular for my tastes.

It really feels like a Marvel Universe show. They take cues from a lot different places and stories from the Marvel Universe like Asgard, the Negative Zone, Ultron, Kang, Kree-Skrull War. I was astonished to see so many cool characters get screen time, such as Mandrill, all of the Kirby Super Nazis and Hulk's gamma villains.

Cannot wait for Season 2. Lots of cool stuff happening like the return of Captain Marvel, The Guardians of The Galaxy (Groot and Rocket Raccoon era), Doctor Doom and Ronan.

EMH ain't a beauty but it's alright.

I watched a few of young justice on youtube and liked what I saw, but haven't done as such in a while. not surprising it's good, though- Greg Weisman is involved and all.

anyone else excited for The Last Airbender: Legend of Korra? s'gonna rock.

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?

Adult Swim's best stuff is all live-action right now. NTSF : SD : SUV :: and Eagleheart are my personal favorites right now, but Delocated and Children's Hospital are pretty funny, too. And if they ever do a season two of Check It Out! With Dr. Steve Brule, man, I'm all over that.

I'll second the Archer love as well. That show is so dang bleak, but so hilarious.

I'd forgotten about Archer. For some reason that show often doesn't even register as animated to my brainmind. Love it though.

Speaking of Jon Benjamin, has anyone watched that Bob's Burgers show?

Count me among the people who doesn't really care for Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes. It's possible because I've never been too fond of the team, but I'm not really a fan of the animation or story lines in general. The fact that they seem to be seeing how guest stars they can throw in with upcoming issues, does not fill me with excitement.

I'm basically just killing time for the Legend of Korra and Venture Bros season 5 to come out.

RE: Toon Talk
I'm not a huge Marvel fan, so would you guys say EMH is worth the watch for someone who doesn't have a lot of background on the characters? I love the movies as much as the next guy, I've just never really gotten into the comics.

Meanwhile, I'm going to sit here patiently for Young Justice to come back.

RE: Toon Talk
Yeah, I was digging Young Justice, even with its early episode kinks, but lost any sort of momentum to watch it after it's hiatus and I'm probably now going to watch it after the entire season's done (whenever the hell that is).

I also had high hopes for Generator Rex, which is kind of boring and I'm pissed that Sym-Bionic Titan didn't go further than it did.

RE: Toon Talk
Let's not even talk about Sym-Bionic Titan. For me the grief is still too great.

I think it'd be worth a shot- it is not the best and brightest, but it's perfectly acceptable cartooning. the weirdest thing about it is the bizarre length of time it takes them to actually get to the point of having avengers- they did a "micro season" establishing the major characters. if you're watching on netflix, I'd skip ahead a few episodes for the test run- maybe Gamma World part 1 and 2.

I liked the intro eps of thundercats, but haven't enjoyed the the two since- haven't watched the most recent, yet.

RE: Toon Talk
@GL 2814.4 - Avengers is certainly not the worst thing you could watch. I think the animation is noticeably cheaper and less slick than any of the Warner Bros/DC animated show, but if you can get past that and power through the crappy episodes, there are some cool moments and bright spots.
I can't believe no one has mentioned Batman: The Brave & the Bold yet. Especially me, since I think that is one of the best shows ever.

I just watched the final episode yesterday and it was amazing and genuinely emotional.

Also fantastic is The Looney Tunes Show.

I never would have believed it, but it really is.
If you ignore the "Merrie Melodies" bits (which are really hit or miss, with more misses than hits), it's pretty perfect.

Trying our video posting capabilities out and attempting to show off how great The Looney Tunes Show is at once...
