Whoever Said Cartoons Are Just For Kids

There was a time when we used to wait every morning for Oswald and Tom and Jerry. A time when we though bugs bunny was cool and Johnny Bravo a big douche nonetheless funny. A little further down the road we were introduced to Doremon, Shin Chan and many other which though were conventionally aimed at the adult japanese demograph was dubbed and mellowed down for the Indian kids. Though some of us moved to dramas and comedy which weren’t animated as we grew up , the thrill of cartoons is always present. Maybe that’s where these new shows aimed directly at people above the age of 18 developed. Here are some of those. For authenticity we have excluded Anime and Popular shows such as Family Guy and Simpsons.

1) Big Mouth

If there’s one thing that puberty is not, it’s fast. It’s an agonizing process full of mystery and abrupt twists and turns—all things that feed the comedy of Netflix’s animated series about growing up,Big Mouth. And if there’s one thing thatBig Mouthis, it’s fast. Scrub-backward-to-rewatch-the-scene (sometimes at the characters’ fourth-wall-breaking behest), don’t-take-your-eyes-of-the-screen-for-a-second fast. The speed and density with which the show tells jokes in its second season is astounding, an ideal synthesis of the freewheeling improvisation of Nick Kroll and the gag-a-second rhythms of Andrew Goldberg’s previous cartoon gig,Family Guy. espite the language, nudity, sexual situations, drug use, and cartoonish violence “Big Mouth” is about kids, for kids (of a certain age), and the older viewers are there to learn, remember, or both.

2) Archer

Though his code name might be "Dutchess" and his Oedipal issues are endless, super-agent Sterling Archer is the narcissistic cad you want on your team. And as a hyper-violent of Get Smart, Archerbusted out on FX to become a ratings hit and a pop-culture quote machine. Archer is a marvelous mish-mash of retro spy style and future tech, combining Sean Connery's bond with Jason Bourne and all the STDs in between. H. Jon Benjamin provides Archer's dry, egotistical heroism while Aisha Tyler, Chris Parnell, and Judy Greer fill in as his unhinged spy team. So if you like your sex and violence mixed with obscure references to Chekhov and Tolkienthen this is for you.

3)King of the Hill

Set in the city ofArlen,King of the Hillfollows the story of a regular Texas family, but is largely told from the perspective of father and husband Hank. He's an everyday, hard-working Texan who helped ground the show in a realistic world, challenging the writers and creators to find comedy in the mundane aspects of life.
