Aqua Teen Hunger Force teeters dangerously over that fine line between funny and unbearable. :)

The key to any great show is great writing.

Everytime I watch Futurama I see something subtle they put in that I didn't see before. Some reference to some SciFi movie or some 20th century pop reference that zipped by me the last time I watched it because I was laughing so hard at something else.

Family Guy has done similiar things - Like the good-night sequence from the Sound of Music. My 17 year old Sarah didn't get that joke at all. Poor girl.

The little messages in the openings are cool, too.

i caught an episode the other night where leela hooked up with another cyclops named alkazar. after they slept together, he told her to cal him al, and he turned into al bundy, with leela becoming peg. priceless! (yes, i know that katey sagal, who voices leela, played peg in the series). the dvd box set was on my chrismas list, and if it ain't under the tree, i'm buying it for me after the holidays.
