What's In My Queue?- Week 2

A short week this week in terms of shows watched, but I definitely got some quality animation for my troubles. Here are my thoughts on the shows I binged this week...


Animaniacs- Season 1:

I'm sure many of you were as excited as I was to see the entire Animaniacs cartoon added to Netflix this week. My mission began to binge as much as possible. This is one of the greatest cartoons to ever exist and it is because of the complete insanity that occurs in every episode. From The Warners, to Slappy Squirrel, to Pinky and the Brain, and so on, every recurring sketch is memorable and hilarious for different things. Me personally, I really love The Warners and Slappy in this season. Pinky and the Brain really came into their own once they got their own show, but that's just me thinking out loud. This show is so smart and so self-aware that I can't help but enjoy it more as an adult than I did as a child. If you love this show as much as I do, you've probably already started watching it on Netflix. If you haven't seen it yet, what are you waiting for? Just sit back and relax. You'll laugh to you collapse with Animaniacs.

American Dad!- Seasons 1, 2, and 3:

I remember when this show first came out, I wouldn't give it the time of day. I didn't care for political jokes and I thought Seth MacFarlane's talent was better used on Family Guy. Boy, how perspective has seriously changed over the years. I think the show's a lot funnier thanks to the jokes and the characters. I think it's just a matter of preference as time goes by. The political humor is stronger and more poignant in American Dad! than it is in Family Guy and that's why I think it's funnier. They commit themselves to the jokes and morals way more in this show, so it's a lot more hysterical. If you like Seth MacFarlane's brand of humor, odds are you've already checked this show out. If you haven't yet, out of loyalty to Family Guy, give it a shot. It's pretty enjoyable.
