I love animation.  I’ve been a big fan of animated movies and tv shows ever since I was a kid watching shows like Bobbies World and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Today, I still love to sit back and watch a good animated comedy, but now it’s shows like Home Movies, Archer,  Bob’s Burgers and more.  This list is dedicated to the funniest tv cartoons geared for adults out there, most of which are available to stream online.  Enjoy!

Best Animated Comedies

Home Movies

Home Movies is by far one of the funnies pieces of entertainment I’ve ever seen, tv or otherwise. It follow three elementary school kids who talk like adults as they film home made movies.  The dialog and great characters make this show, especially Jon Bengermin as burn out soccer coach McGuirk.  Don’t let the simple animation fool you, this show is gold!

Available on Netflix? Yes!

Futurama

Futurama is one of those shows that has a tendency to get cancel and re-birthed by popular demand.  The first four seasons are clever futuristic satire pulled off expertly.  Unfortunately, the show was revived by Comedy Central, and the intelligence level of took a sever downward plunge. But the first four seasons are still well worth your time.

 Available on Netflix? Yes!

Adventure Time

Adventure Time is a manic mess of a show spewing creative rainbows and indie tunes. It’s a strange combination of a post apocalyptic world where people are made out of candy, rainbow unicorns soar through the skies, and a boy and his dog roam the country side looking for adventure. If you can handle the magnitude of the manic randomness this cartoon dishes out, you may fall in love with this wonderful show!

Available on Netfix? Sadly, no…

Archer

Archer follows special agent Sterling Archer through his day to day life dealing with his mother (who also happens to be the director of the agency he works for), his poor, sad butler, and co-workers. There are moments where I laughed so hard I nearly spewed milk out my nose… if I drank milk while watching cartoons that is (it felt like an appropriate analogy). It can get pretty crass at times, so don’t watch if you have sensitive sensibilities.

Available on Netflix? Yes!

King of the Hill

King of the Hill is a classic which ran for 13 seasons before it was sadly replaced by the bastard child of Family Guy.  A sad day indeed.  The show follows redneck Hank Hill and his neighbors as they drink beer, mow their lawns and sell propane and propane accessories.  Every season, King of the Hill continued to get better and better, with the final season being a high water mark, and a fitting send off for this hilarious cartoon.

Available on Netflix? Yes!

Bob’s Burgers

By far, the newest show on this list, Bob’s Burgers is only in their second season, so the jury is still out on whether it will become a classic animated comedy.  But if it follows the trend many of these others shows on this list follow, it should really peak next season.  Bob’s Burgers follow’s Bob and his family as they run their restaurant.  The comedy is odd in that its often ridiculous and subdued at the same time.
