Birds of Prey was really good, though it's not the first on my list. Firefly I would, of course, love to see return. Also there was sort of an obscure show called Wonderfalls, which was simply amazing, and I would absolutely love to see that come back on.

Wonder Showzen! So offensive. So damn funny, though. If more people had took notice it would've caused a massive scandal. They cancelled it after 2 seasons though.

Drawn Together was really funny. As long as you didn't take it too seriously. I mean, it was racist, sexist, agist, anti-semitic, crass and it made no damn sense ever. The characters constantly died. But it was funny because it was just so ludicrous.

The Tick, 1 series about 8 episodes, only 7 aired, it was so bleeding funny
THIS!

Bat Manuel? Funniest idea ever had by anyone ever.
Did you know Bat Manuel played the Mayor of Gotham City in The Dark Knight because the producers liked The Tick haha

Well Invader Zim was one of the greatest shows on T.V for me at one point, I thought the homour was just right, Zim was an idiot but he was a very dark and funny Idiot, and GIR was brilliant, I just dont see why they canceled it, it had so much potential.

Ho and may I also add Celebrity Deathmatch!!

Basically, everything mentioned here (except for "Mission Hill" and "The War at Home". I REALLY did not like these shows.)

However, I have to give special mention to Clerks: The Animated Series. Only 6 episodes, but the humor in each of them was well ahead of its time. You can watch all of them on Veoh. I highly recommend it.

I'm really glad somebody mentioned Megas XLR. Arguably Cartoon Network's best show since Samurai Jack, for the most part it was a clever parody of Transformers and other action cartoons from that era, as well as many popular animes.

Chicks dig giant robots.

*reads first pages* -> *skips to last page*

Let's see.
Firefly of course.
Dark Angel could have wrapped things up in 1 more season.
jPod, I miss that show.
Other than that, everything I'd say is fine. A bunch of nick cartoons are ok with me for getting canned. Of course, they were better than what the kids channels have on now.

Maybe Invader Zim or Vegas if I had to think a bit harder.

For me, it's either Kyle XY or Journeyman. Kyle XY was pretty entertaining, and by the time it had ended, I had been pretty much addicted for some bizarre reason, and that's why I was so pissed at the end of the series. If the show had continued, it would've been considered a cliff-hanger, but since it ended, it was just a push off a cliff onto rusty metal spikes made of Fuckyou. I didn't get to enjoy Journeyman that much, I think it was cancelled after a few episodes, but I thought the premise was intriguing enough to warrant my attention. Traveling through time, fixing stuff in the past, trying to hide it from the authorities, previously thought dead girlfriends, not necessarily exciting, but interesting and slightly captivating, so I was bummed when it unexpectedly ended, since it didn't have enough time to evolve into maybe something kickass. Of course, it could've been crap, but my point is that I didn't have a chance to find out. But that's just me.

Futurama - The new seasons broke my heart with their terrible writing
Firefly - what a great show...whyyyy cancel..
Stargate SG-1 - Ahh...probably my longest running favourite, I watched from when it came out with the movie, never really got the attention it deserved in my mind. Even though it is generic..formulaic and sometimes cheap with its writing and has numerous plot holes, its still GREAT. that said, 10seasons...was a fair amount.

Futurama, as previously stated and Red Dwarf. That show was epic ammounts of hilarity
