Family Guy has just become so bad, i like the first seasons but damn, the newest episodes are just awful, there's nothing funny, it's all about "oh look this is random", there's no plot, it's just we go from one thing to another just to add a couple of jokes we wrote in 5 minutes. Gee, the first seasons had some story to it, the jokes were well integrated in the episode, and it wasn't just constant random shit.
Harvey Birdman is for me one of the best shows ever, i consider it personally to be the best tv show ever along Twin Peaks and Arrested Development. It is that good. Every episode has so much in it, their parodies of Hanna Barbera cartoons are so well-written, the jokes also. You know, at first everything looks so random, but the more you watch it, the more you get the jokes, there's something so hilarious about noticing a minor detail you didn't catch before. And i mean, hello, Gary Cole, Stephen Colbert, Maurice LaMarche do voices in it. It's really sad that ended so abruptly.
Aqua Teen Hunger Force is good. Some episodes are really bad, some are great, especially Multiple Meats, when Meatwad leeps multiplying, that episode was excellent, i couldn't stop laughing. But yeah, it is better to watch when you're high.
Robot Chicken has become more a case of loud and annoying instead of well written comedy. It's always the same syndrome of abusing profanity and making it the more gore possible, where as the two first seasons were more about parody and jokes.
I don't get Tim & Eric and Metalocalypse, i really don't understand what's good about those shows.
