let's face it, both tv genres haven't had the best of times in recent years but if you had the option to choose, which would you prefer and see more of on tv: good cartoon shows that appeal to all generations, not just today's kids but for us as well, or good quality american sitcoms, just like in the 50s right up to the 90s?

I think there are some great animated shows on TV right now that I love watching.

Family Guy, American Dad, Simpsons, not to mention The Venture Brothers on Cartoon Network which is absolutly brilliant.

I would like to see the "traditional" four camerea filmed before a live audiencs sitcom make a comeback. Filmed comedies like "Office" have really taken over prime time.

Don't get me wrong, I love that style of comedy, but the "traditional" style has been around for over 50 years and i think it needs to make a comeback.

I don't like any of the new cartoons. I have watch danny phatom. its not bad cartoon. I wish they would make cartoon like they used to like the jetsons, looney toones, tiny toons or mighty mouse. they are makinga new tom and jerry cartoon. I might check it out. I have seen the new batman cartoon. its ok not as good as the 1990 cartoon. their coming out with new spider-man
cartoon. it looks good.

I don't like any of the new cartoons. I like all the old ones like Looney Tunes, Scooby Doo, Road Runner... I think I would like to see more of the good american sitcoms from the 50s to the 90s.
