The holiday season is upon us once again, which means it's time to discuss a Christmas cartoon that doesn't suck. This year, we're looking at the second Beavis and Butt-Head yuletide episode—the first with actual animation—where the two troubled teens find themselves in delightful and at times disgusting parodies of A Christmas Carol and It's a Wonderful Life.

When the family-unfriendly Tim Burton horror/comedy Beetlejuice ended up being a big hit with kids, Warner Bros. made the strange decision to shove their undead deviant into the ever-changing landscape of children's programming. The result? A 94-episode animated series that depicts Lydia and Beetlejuice as best (platonic) buds whose adventures bring them to the depths of the Neitherworld and back. So does the pun-based, gross-out humor hold up 30 years later? Listen in and find out! Support this...

A little over 30 years after it premiered, Batman: The Animated Series is back! (Kind of.) Caped Crusader takes the form of a spiritual sequel to WB's hit '90s series, though one closer to Bruce Timm's original pitch. This time around, the cartoonish qualities are replaced with pure noir, making this a more subtle, moody, and adult series. On this episode of What A Cartoon, join us as we explore this newest iteration of Batman and see if it can possibly escape the shadow cast by what came before...

Welcome once again to live-action month on What A Cartoon, where YOU are the fool. (An April Fool, if you will...) In our sixth podcast about a live-action show that has very cartoony qualities, we're digging into the classic Canadian sketch comedy program, Kids in the Hall. This collection of maple-leaf misfits helped define alternative comedy in just five short years and a surprising amount of episodes. And, thanks to frequent Comedy Central reruns, their cult show gradually built up enough of...
