1. “King of the Hill”
Most cartoons are like sugar rushes. They are bright and colorful, and the characters are loud and dynamic. That’s not the case with “King of the Hill.” It’s maybe the most relaxed cartoon ever. The characters talk quietly and slowly. The animation is simplistic and far from neon. None of that matters though. It’s basically just a really good sitcom that happens to be a cartoon. They could have made it live action, but didn’t, and that’s kind of fascinating.
2. “The Critic”
“The Critic” is an underrated gem. The adventures of Jay Sherman, movie critic, weren’t appreciated fully at the time. Maybe it was the comparisons to “The Simpsons,” as it was created by a couple of veterans from that show. However, what “The Critic” had is a bunch of movie parodies, many of which were truly brilliant.
