I think the word "pranks" is a red flag in general for me. I find them quite cringeworthy.

Roy, tell me you didn't find the above funny.
 
Coinciding with Aion's "realistic humor", but different. I find terrible things funny in US TV shows and movies; If there unintentionally funny or borderline - Should I laugh? - Like a extreme car crash, pulled off in a way we're meant to feel emotional for the characters, when it's actually just hilarious. Even the people on the set must be laughing.

The one, the only, the messy and subjective Cartoon Debate: South Park is brilliant, It works episodic, yet each season new characters come and go, jokes are brought up, and the characters grow. It seems like you won't get attached to the show, unless you know it's history. Futurama can be amazing, sentimental and clever, if the writers are up to it with episodes like Space Pilot 3000, One's set in the Year 2000, and the one with Fry's dog... Even Bender's Big Score. [Speaking of which, I need to watch Bender's Game.]

The Simpsons has, without a doubt, lost the plot. Some of my favourite ones, are still funny (The BoyBand episode). Yet, Fox insists it goes on. King of the Hill has it's ups and downs. I haven't seen half as many episodes of that to give a full judgement of it, though. And, finally, Family Guy. I watch it occasionally when it's on, but it grates with me. I knew a kid who consistantly quoted it. And the ability to quote a show is it's downfall (Exception being Invader ZIM. "Random is funny", yeah) ;/


Aqua Teen Hunger Force continues to succeed.

Don't rush... apart from Bender's Big Score those movies haven't done anything to improve the Futurama universe. It's a show that has so much potential more than just a comedy in space. The characters developed over the series rather than changing personalities constantly to suit the needs of the plot.

I feel South Park has grown to be the best animated show currently on television. It grew from that little show that was out to shock with a few laughs to something much more and as far as I'm concerned is still on top of it's game. As long as they don't get afraid of change I think this show could easily go on for longer than The Simpsons and still be pulling off great episodes. The major problem with The Simpsons is that in nearly 20 years not much has changed at all.

I think we may be going off track a little...
 
Ah yes, comedy. Everything has been said already, but my two pence is that Excel Saga, for me, is one of the funniest things ever made :) Love Hina is funny, but not in the same league (Though the Negima! Manga is pretty damn hilarious) Azumanga is pretty damn funny as well. Infact, there are not all that many 'comedy' Anime which I don't find amusing on some level (Burn up Excess has only a few moments, but they are good ones, and My Neighbours the Yamada's is pretty boring for me) However Excel Saga ranks extremely high on my all time comedy list, not just my anime one :)

SAY WHAT??

Have you watched any recent (as in last two years) epsiodes?

They're not funny at all. I watched the post-election one they did a couple of weeks ago and I didn't laugh once. The humour isn't clever, they spend too much time on hashing out some moralistic plot and they always do that annoying thing where the same joke is repeated ten times in an episode.

My opinion it peaked with the Paris Hilton episode.

Also the guys who make it are conservative hacks (despite claiming to be libertarians) and one them says he thinks evolution is a stupid idea (despite not belonging to a religion).
 
Comedy. Subjective. Very.

I love the new episodes, especially the heavy metal inspired one where Kenny get high on cat urine, the one where Cartman gives Kyle aids and the one where Wendy beats the crap out of Cartman during school. All gold in my opinion and the best the series has ever been.

I think you're kinda missing the point. Any moralising is done in a very tongue in cheek way (just look at the cheesy music cues) and is almost always satirical. I class myself as a Libertarian, and one of the key points of Libertarianism is that people should be allowed to think what they like as long as they don't impose their views on others. That bears out in south Park very much - the people who are made fun of the most are the people who try to do just that, liberal or conservative.

As an single moment, one of the funniest was the death of Kenny. I couldn't save myself from laughing for minutes.
 
Just thought I'd post my favourite moment from the new season since we brought it up.

I think there's a definate conservative bent that they try to sugar coat. In Team America it's really obvious.

This isn't about freedom of thought or belief, it's about whether they're intelligent or not. As I said before there's a definate conservative slant and preference for attacking perceived icons of liberalism (rather than conservatism).

What would you call Saddam Hussein or The Church of Scientology? I think they're pretty even handed. In the Go God Go! episides they take the piss out of religion and atheism by imagining a future in which Atheists are just as rabidly dogmatic as evangelical Christians. The point was not to say that either were wrong, but that dogma was wrong.

Plus, as Sy just illustrated, how can it not be liberal to show a kid taking a **** on their teacher's desk?
 
Stop posting about comedy in a thread about the worst anime in existence. If you continue to discuss South Park, taking this thread far off topic, you'll me no choice: I'll have to call upon Lord Arseblast and command him to issue the second ever official AUKN warning to someone.

By the way... South Park, like Little Britain, is something only...a certain type of person can fully appreciate. It looks **** and, going on what I've seen, it is ****. The end.

Now, to get this topic back on track, here's another retarded Star Ocean EX video:

Sorry captain, you're right but don't put Little Britain and South Park in the same sentence again.

Here's a contender for the worst anime ever with very little in the form of redeeming qualities. It pains me to accept that it was created by the same guy that brought us Lupin III. Musashi Gundoh. It looks and sounds like crap.

Well, since this thread has turned into a "Post your amusing anime vids!!!" type of thing, I'm going to post a few of the truly funny videos of poorly done anime I know of: the Naruto Jetix edits. I like Naruto (pre-filler), it's one of my favourite series, but the Jetix edits are horrible.

See for yourself:

"OMG!!!! He got blase-"

Jetix Person #1: Does u tink dem lil' brats wud notice fake widescreen an half da frames bein removed?
Jetix Person #2: Naw man, UK kids are thick and ****. They'll probably think we've upgraded it from full-screen to widescreen, and removed every gory frame possible to add drama. lolz

I've seen the bottom clip before and I've also seen the episode uncut and watching the edited version it's a complete chore to follow. If they have to edit something that much it's a puzzle to why they decided to show it in the first place. At least it wasn't as bad as the Teenage Mutant HERO Turtles. I'd be pretty funny if they were all referred to as Heroes rather than Ninjas.

Searching on YouTube, I just came across this video:

Skip to the end for the best line ever. I'm wondering if that's the real dub.

Haha. My copy of Orguss 02 should arrive tomorrow, so I'll let you know.

I also found that third Naruto video hilarious, although probably for a different reason to everyone else :D
 
Right Little Britain is ****, and south park is one of the most overated shows ever! It's like saying that the simpsons is better than futurama! By the way Red Dwarf is one of the greatest of all time, so is Coupling and Spaced. Dicuss......
