I'm also ticked off at everyone ranking Looney Tunes low just because of some technicality.
I'm not.

Did you put it last following Avaitor's principles, or because you genuinely liked it less among the five shows, Foggle? That makes a world of a difference, I'd say.  ;)

Honestly, I want to put it above last place, because I love Looney Tunes, but the other four honestly make me laugh more than LT. I'm not rating it low because it's not technically a TV cartoon.

And that's exactly how I feel about putting it third myself.  :thumbup:

Honestly, Looney Tunes is kind of hard to rank in any spot that's not first. Nowadays, KOTH and Futurama just make me laugh a bit more.

I probably wouldn't have this problem if this round wasn't so hard. And it's only going to get harder.

I don't find KOTH that funny, honestly. I don't get what's so laugh-inducing about it. But, then again, I'm the guy who still likes South Park, which is apparently abysmal now according to most people on this board, so fuck it, I'm just going to say that I have a different sense of humor than the rest of you.

I also find LT to be really "entertaining" compared to most of the other shows. It's not just about laughs, or historical importance, and I hate how some of you guys just assume that's the only reason that I ranked it so high (if that were the case, I would have put it above Futurama as well). I really like LT. Apparently that makes me the weird one, here.

I thought you were getting into KOTH when you were watching some of it a year or two ago.
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

And I said that I liked it. The characters are likable enough and the episodes are usually interesting enough to hold my interest. That doesn't necessarily mean that I found it's jokes to be that funny. I kind of liked it more as a sitcom for the situations and character moments rather than the actual comedy side of that, if that makes any sense. At any rate, I think that it's a good show from what I've seen of it. I just wasn't able to get myself to feel as strongly about it as the rest of you guys do.

Well, you know how South Park is my favorite show and everything, and how I still like the majority of the new episodes and all, so that's not entirely true.  I mean, I've really enjoyed season 17 outside of the first episode, even though a lot of people have been negative about it until the Black Friday episodes started. A lot of people hated the Goth kids episode, and I personally found it hilarious, so I also don't seem to share the same consensus as other people on the recent episodes of the show. All the same, though, I also LOVE King of the Hill, and I find most of the episodes hilarious. Yes, a good chunk of enjoyment of the show comes from the characters, plots, situations than the jokes, but that's how it is for most of the shows I watch, even South Park. For me it comes down to entertainment value, which I gauge in laughs, how much I love the characters, how much I enjoy an average episode and how many am I willing to watch in one sitting, etc. In this match, King of the Hill is the show I a most entertained by, so I put it first, just like how you put it last because it was the show you were least entertained by, and that's all there is to that.

I don't think anybody here thinks that. Most people ranked Looney Tunes the way they did because of how much it entertains them relative to the other shows, just like you did. There's nothing weird with not liking it as much as some other shows, and you yourself put Futurama a rank above it. There really is no issue here for you to be so upset about.   :sweat:

So you can imagine where I stand where I can only put LT's first, but can't vote for anything else since I don't care for the other shows... (Kinda why I haven't been participating for the last few rounds)

There is maybe one person on AR who doesn't like modern SP.

The Spectacular Spider-Man

My Picks:

Batman: The Brave and the Bold - My favorite superhero cartoon.

Case Closed - A long-time favorite of mine.

The Spectacular Spider-Man - I love every episode I've seen of it. Would probably challenge or rival Brave and the Bold as my favorite superhero cartoon if I saw all of it.

Megas XLR - Best mecha parody show ever made.

Superman: The Animated Series - Something had to give. I love ol' Supes and all, but I can't help but admit the other shows here entertain me more. Still great, though.
