This sure is pretty damn good, its the closest thing we've had to dexter or cow and chicken in a long long while...hopefully they keep this show on!

Not really IMO, but it's good.

Not spectacular, but good sometimes--7.5/10 overall.

Tom Goes to the Mayor is occasionally funny but really it's like the guys are on crack that are making it.

I'm surprised stuff like that and 12oz Mouse (spelling?) make it on the air.

adult swim is only good for futurama, family guy, robot chicken and uncensored animes. all that williams street crap is for the birds (except for ATHF). I hate AS bumpers and their commercials too.

I absolutely LOVE Tom Goes to the Mayor!

He sucks but he doesn't let that stop him -- just like me.

I would say Dexter's, Samurai Jack, Courage, Cow & Chicken, Chile Con Carne (spelling?), and Grim Adventures for some.

No, this show isn't that great.

Classics are Dexter's lab, Courage the cowardly dog, Johnny Bravo, and Samurai Jack.

Personally, I like Foster's home for imaginary friends a lot. I consider that a classic.

i realy think this is tue toon that CN could consider a new classical, it's closer to cow n' chicken, dexter, and others, and that is great, lately they've been creating weird shows, and after what happened to boomerang, going from real classicals like yogi bear to be a girl channel with soap stupid operas. I really miss old times when it comes to cartoons...

When you mentioned Dexter and Johnny Bravo, you have to be careful, cause there are two "series" for each, and the difference within those "series" is the difference between night and day. The first two seasons of Dexter's Laboratory(first series) were probably the definative sense of the word "classic", as far as CN is concerned. Season 3 & 4, with Mandark's parents, the Candi Milo doing Dexter's voice and the bad art direction, those was horrible. And some might debate with me, but the first season of Johnny Bravo was the best. The second they got Carl, Pops and Suzy's voice and design changed(original Suzy had a round face and innocent girl voice, while new Suzy had a strange long head and a squeeky voice), it stopped being funny. Most, if anything ALL my favorite episodes are from Season 1.

If anything, one of the shows I totally miss has to be What Ever Happened To Robot Jones?! That was such a cute retro-feeling cartoon!!
