Bluey! It's a kiddie cartoon about a dog family. If I've read or watched anything too heavy I'll watch a couple of Bluey eps to chill before sleep.

Sea Lab 2021

King of the hill

Futurama. I have watched Rick and Morty but I feel like nothing comes close to surpassing the kind of writing and vibes Futurama has!

Did you get that thing I sent ya?

Watching Ren and Stimpy always felt like you just got done with a 3 day bender.

The Tick

Freakazoid

The critic

She-Ra is my main comfort cartoon these days, but previous shows on rotation (that don't often get mentioned on threads like these) have included:

Axe Cop

Bee And PuppyCat

Dogs In Space

Scavengers Reign

Kipo And The Age Of Wonderbeasts

Major Lazer

I could rewatch Futurama endlessly. That show is always entertaining.

I think Phineas and Ferb is also fucking excellent. The creators’ sense of humor truly gets me

American Dad, I can never get enough of it and it's my go to comfort show. Archer and Futurama are just barely behind it. Both amazing, addicting, and comforting as well.

Futurama, whose line is it anyway (US one), and the earlier seasons of SpongeBob SquarePants.

I'm into classics. So early loony toons, Avery, Jones, Freleng et al. I don't mind which franchise but that was a grest era of cartoons.

Single one best cartoon: What's opera Doc, which is the entire Ring des Nibelungen from Wagner summized comically in under 7 minutes.

Cartoon Network would air them all the time back when I was in my teens. Great stuff. I mean Dextres Lab, Cow&Chicken Johnny Bravo and so forth were all pretty cool, but those old toons were brilliant and could be brutal

Aeon Flux. For a weird experimental cartoon, it's very good and very weird. I could rewatch it forever.

Cowboy Bebop

Archer is my hands down favorite. Even the 3 shit seasons are still better than most shows. I just love the clever (and not-so clever) wordplay and insults in that show, many of which you can't say on the internet anymore. Which if you're of a certain age, is baffling.

Gundam Wing. Looking at it objectively it's one of the weaker Gundam series but something about it just fires up all my neurons.

Futurama!

So first off, hells yes to Harvey Birdman! That was my husband and I’s you want to hang out and watch something show when we were first dating. Sealab 2021, Space Ghost, Adventure Time, Aeon Flux, and Futurama all have a special place too.

King of the Hill. I love the characters so much, especially the dynamic between Hank and Bobby.

Samurai Jack

Bort

It’s been a while now but I used to watch gravity falls so often I could tell you almost all the jokes and gags in every episode.

Futurama, Rick and Morty, and archer

As in "I wish I could stop but it keeps pulling me back"?

I had that with a few kid shows, recently The Amazing World Of Gumball.

Tigtone. It's so weird and disturbing to watch,yet hilarious. Perfect

Adventure Time. I can watch it endlessly.

In no particular order, Archer, Futurama, Pink Panther (the original)

Did you get that thing I sent ya?

billy and mandy

Rick and Morty, Owl House, Gravity Falls

Bobs burger and first 9 seasons of southpark.

Watching the Brak Show feels like smoking weed to me, but I'm completely sober. Except for when I'm high.

Norm McDonald’s character Pigeon in Mike Tyson Mysteries on Adult Swim

Eh, none of them to that degree. There's really nothing that's ever been on TV that I can't be patient with, and I can't binge watch much of anything.

However, Metalocalype and The Venture Bros, I can watch more of at once than anything else, even animated media that I technically like more. Which seems weird on the surface, but the reason is that I don't have to watch every second of those two to enjoy every second of the episodes. Particularly on rewatches, though it was the case when they were new anyway.

If you want to talk about the other shows that are almost bingeable for me, but I need to be able to sustain watching, that's Samurai Jack and Primal. Both of them take animated storytelling and turn it into a form of art that transcends a single genre. Brilliant scripts, and the art styles were and are compelling in a way nothing I had seen before matched.

Part of the barrier is just attention span. Since I had to give up stimulants of any kind, including caffeine and nicotine, I'm reminded of why school could be so damn hard when I was a kid. Not the most severe expression of attention issues, but enough that after a few episodes, I need a break from being locked in fully.

The other part is just being old and not wanting to sit in one place and get stiff and sore.

Its Aqua Teen Hunger Force for me
