Top 10 Animated Comedies of All Time

The Top Ten
1 The Simpsons The Simpsons is an American animated sitcom created by Matt Groening that originally started on April 19, 1987 as shorts on The Tracey Ullman Show. It got its own series on December 17, 1989 and is still running as of 2023, making it the longest running animated sitcom. It is about a man named Homer Simpson and his family (wife Marge and children Bart, Lisa and Maggie and pets, Snowball II and Santa's Little Helper) going through a long series of misadventures.

To the person calling fans of Futurama babies: Do you people realize that this show is highly overrated? It is liked WAY too much, the show has went downhill since Season 6, and the previous "good" seasons didn't have any sort of quality in humor either. To be honest, the only good episodes are the ones that Homer doesn't make an appearance or has a merely cameo in (which are pretty rare). Futurama may not be as funny, but it has always been highly intelligent despite losing some of it's luster. It doesn't matter how long and popular whatever show is, it's about how much quality they have. There will always be Simpson haters in this world whether you like it or not. You fanbrats either need to take those anti-Simpson fan's opinions like adults or don't have opinions at all.

People slag off newer Simpsons episodes also calling Homer a jerk. But you don't see that with Season 1. Homer is more serious. The animation is different, a different opening Bart grabbing the bus sign and the people waiting chase after it. Why do they say Homer's first job was safety inspector when it was technical supervisor.

Haters are all Futurama cry babies.
They don't get which show is more popular, more funnier and it's the Simpsons. Futurama started in 1999 the year before the 21st Century and then hey I wonder what the 22nd century would be like lets make an animated comedy about it call it Futurama, a guy gets frozen and ends up in the year 3000. Would it last as long as the Simpsons, Nope.

This should be number 1.
And people don't hate it now they are bored of it because its been around for 30 years how many cartoons have survived that long and even longer. This show will probably be around till either one of the voice actors of the family died or if Matt died.

2 South Park South Park is an American adult animated sitcom created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone for the Comedy Central television network. The show is about four boys, who are Stan Marsh, Kyle Broflovski, Eric Cartman, and Kenny McCormick, and their adventures in South Park, Colorado.

It is without a doubt the funniest animated comedy ever it's much more offensive than family guy, which used to be good but now it's a little but. you know. Don't get me wrong I love the simpsons, futurama and american dad but south park owns all.

This, Family Guy, and The Simpsons definitely deserve to be in the top three, but there are so many bad family guy and simpsons episodes and like two bad south park episode. Every one is a classic.

Whats funnier then south park? Honestly, Eric Cartman, Kyle Broflovski, Kenny Mccormick, and Stan Marsh make me laugh harder then anything else on this earth.

Jokes are actually relevant to the plot (unlike family guy) and the content is actually very intelligent and political. funniest animated show ever and definitely a billion times better than family guy

3 Family Guy Family Guy is an American adult animated sitcom created by Seth MacFarlane for the Fox Broadcasting Company. The series centers on the Griffins, a family consisting of parents Peter (Fat, Idiotic Dad) and Lois (Nagging Bitchy Wife), their children Meg (Socially Awkward Daughter) Chris (Fat, Idiotic Son), and Stewie (Sociopathic and Genuine Infant); and lastly Brian (Anthromorphic Pet Dog). The show is set in the fictional city of Quahog, Rhode Island, and exhibits much of its humor in the form of cutaway gags that often American culture. ...read more.

Family guy is the best programme ever the best episode has got to be and then there were fewer from series 10 but I also like Stewie Loves Lois. Its hilarious. Lois, lois, lois, mom, mom and so on. WOW

Family Guy is the best, the only reason people watched the simpsons is because family guy didn't exist then so they had nothing else to watch but that bull crap.

Not as good as American Dad but great.

It's so random, I can't stop laughing!

4 Futurama Futurama is an American animated science fiction sitcom created by Matt Groening for the Fox Broadcasting Company.

This is the best show ever! I made this list before I became a member and Futurama was #1, Family Guy was #2, and The Simpsons was #3!

I love this show evveryone I know loves this show why it it is not number one and family guy is I have no idea I wish they would show it more on comedy central. Of course like everyone else my favorite character is leela

Smart, funny, original, got canceled and came back. It only being four, bit my shiny metal ass.

It's the Simpsons in a futuristic sci-fi setting, which is the perfect combination!

5 American Dad American Dad! is an American adult animated sitcom created by Seth MacFarlane, Mike Barker, and Matt Weitzman for the Fox Broadcasting Company and currently on TBS. American Dad! is the first television series made to premiere on the network's Animation Domination block. The series premiered on February 6, 2005, following Super Bowl XXXIX, with the rest of the first season airing three months later beginning May 1, 2005. American Dad! is a joint production between Underdog Productions, Fuzzy Door Productions and 20th Television Animation and syndicated by 20th Television.

The characters in American dad are so much better than family guy. Personally, roger is my favorite. Family Guy keeps cutting to flash backs that aren't even that funny. American dad is by far the best show Seth has out.

Seth Macfarlane's best show by far. The characters are much more developed than Family Guy and the comedy is much more clever.

By far best show about. Stan is way better than Peter plus there's none of they stupid cutaway gags. nothing compares

6 King of the Hill King of the Hill is an American animated sitcom created by Mike Judge and Greg Daniels that ran from January 12, 1997 to May 6, 2010 on Fox.
7 Robot Chicken Robot Chicken is an American stop motion sketch comedy television series, created and executive produced by Seth Green and Matthew Senreich along with co-head writers Douglas Goldstein and Tom Root for Adult Swim.

I think robot chicken is hilarious but family guy beats it because some of robot chicken is bad but it is very pop cultural and hilarious about it making fun of it's competitors in the best ways.

Family guy is terrible! This is much better. I'm tired of all these fox and comedy central shows. One day, Adult Swim will become the superior channel!

8 Beavis and Butt-head Beavis and Butt-Head is an American animated sitcom created and designed by Mike Judge. The series originated from Frog Baseball, a 1992 short film by Judge originally aired on Liquid Television.

Way ahead of its time... A classic MTV show that can make you laugh just thinking about the expressions on Beavis and Butthead's faces... So glad it was brought back. This should be number one. If not than at least number 3 behind FG and Simpsons.

9 Archer
10 Bob's Burgers Bob's Burgers is an American animated sitcom created by Loren Bouchard for The Fox Broadcasting Company. It premiered on January 9, 2011 and is still running as of 2022.
The Contenders
11 Rick and Morty Rick and Morty is an American adult animated science fiction sitcom created by Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon for Adult Swim.

Only bettered by South Park. Not only pokes fun at social conventions, but at conventions of time space and perceptions of reality.

Definitely top 3 worthy, seeing Rick and Morty at 13 on this list almost offended me.

This should be number #1! Better than all fox shows!

Come on guys. Why isn't this number one?

12 Moral Orel Moral Orel is an American adult stop-motion animated television show, which originally aired on Adult Swim from December 13, 2005 to December 18, 2008. It has been described as "Davey and Goliath...meets South Park".

Okay, I love this.
Because it's sometimes true, I can say that, I'm a Christian, but really some people can just go crazy enough to inhale a locus and just be okay with it.

This show makes my day whenever I watch it.

13 Aqua Teen Hunger Force Aqua Teen Hunger Force is an American animated sitcom created by Dave Willis and Matt Maiellaro for Cartoon Network's late night programming block, Adult Swim.

The series centers on the surreal life of an anthropomorphic Australian-immigrant wallaby named Rocko as well as his friends: the gluttonous steer Heffer, the neurotic turtle Filburt, and Rocko's faithful dog Spunky.

Name ONE way in which this show isn't absolutely top-notch and I'll show you a "certified critic"

16 Tom and Jerry Tom and Jerry is an American animated series of comedy short films created in 1940 by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. Best known for its 161 theatrical short films by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, the series centers on a rivalry between the title characters Tom, a cat, and Jerry, a mouse.

Kids show but anyone can watch it.

17 Shin Chan Also known as "Crayon Shin-chan," this anime series debuted in Japan in 1992 and is based on a manga by Yoshito Usui. The show portrays the misadventures of a mischievous young boy and his interactions with his family and friends. It is famous for its crude humor and social commentary, making it popular among both children and adults.

Shin Chan is quite simply the greatest show to have ever of blessed our T.V. screens. The American Dub is far superior than the original and bends the jokes to suit a western audience.

#Should be number 1

Why in the world is this on here? This is one of the absolute worst shows I've ever seen in my life.

Horrible and overrated.
