Yup. Comedy Central goes through animated shows like potato chips. I still want my Drawn Together back :(

I know I'm going to get a lot of flak for this, but I never really liked Futurama, so I'm not really all that disappointed. I do feel bad for the incredibly dedicated fanbase which already went through a lot to revive it once already.

Yet strangely South Park stays strong.

South Park is their golden baby, and the animation is cheap. CC is cheap, so it works out. They canceled Drawn Together because it was too expensive to animate, a year or 2 later Drawn Together makes a movie and a south park character is one of the villains... you could probably piece together the intentions of the film with what really happened.

And Psycho

You'll probably have to post that again, because I thought Drawn Together was terribad.

Seriously? Maybe my sense of humor is too raunchy... or not. I thought it was better than South Park.. it generates more laughs and isn't too preachy.

I like both Futurama and Drawn Together (Eric is playing Drawn Together in the background even, we got all three seasons uncensored <3). Granted, I am... very eclectic about my humour tastes. I also like South Park. Funnily enough, though, I don't like pretty much everything that airs on the UK Comedy Central, apart from Scrubs and South Park. I don't bother watching CC for anything but that. Roadshow's okay but... ehhh. Rest of it I am not especially fussed about. I might get the odd chuckle out of Two and a Half Men.

I also don't get personally offended by ANYTHING in DT, but that's another topic altogether.

It's a real shame Futurama's been cancelled. I hope it finds a new home, two cancellations is painful and it's a good show in my opinion. Doesn't go overly raunchy, likeable characters, and the feature-lengths are actually good. Which is more than I can say for the DT feature length, or what I've heard about it anyway.

I dunno if it's the raunchiness or the "gross" factor similar to what a lot of Nickelodeon shows had in the 90's. It's probably similar to the reasons why I never really enjoyed Ren and Stimpy.

Oh man Ren and Stimpy, I grew up on those guys + Beavis and Butthead. The animation/production music/humor was so awesome that parents bitched about the raunchiness. I know mine did... which only made me want to watch it more.

The DT movie was actually a little to raunchy for me at one moment... they truly went overboard when they intentionally tried to make the most offensive thing ever.

I never got into South Park, and only watched Futurama periodically, however I do feel bad for the fanbase since I know they loved it.

I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms.

But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit.

game - gun = gay
game + gun = -gay
game + gun + Arem = ???

I could actually watch South Park on and off, it's usually entertaining for me.
