A whole mess of Sunday animation goodness

Yesterday was probably one of the best nights of TV I've seen in a while (too bad I passed out for half of it. God Bless DVR). The Simpsons was actually pretty decent for a change, as the first two Treehouse segments were pretty good. Granted, an A.I. parody is a pretty dated reference, but you work with what you get. The last segment fell flat and just seemed like an excuse to get all the characters dressed up in a funny manner.

Family Guy had probably the best opening of any show I've seen in years and its a shame that the Simpsons weren't creative enough to think of that first. Homer deserved what he got. The actual episode was pretty good, but it's hard to top a Naked Gun spoof.

American Dad was fun, though there are so many harsher jokes they could've gone for with the Saudi Arabia setting. Maybe part II will amp up the jokes?

Finally, checked out the Boondocks premiere on Adult Swim. I've loved the strip for years, but unfortunately, it just doesn't work as well when expanded to twenty minutes. Still, there's plenty of room for improvement and Uncle Ruckus's song was pretty funny. Worth taking a look at.
