I'm sure you can find worse if you try hard but it's got to be in the top 10. I completely forgot this show ever existed till the teletoon started airing it again recently.

Oh come on, Jon Lovitz was great. Sure it only lasted one season but I laughed at it back then. :)

I know I will be hated by thousands of nerds, but it was infinitely better than Futurama

We need to update the rules to state that this is a bannable offense. For now, I guess I have to let you off with a warning.

Perhaps but the average tone of the show was just so horribly corny most of the time.

It was actually a pretty good show. It had too many smart jokes that went over the heads of the troglodytes than make up the Nielsen ratings, so it never got the acclaim it deserved.

Oh I get all the jokes I just find most of them far too corny.

If you think that the jokes are too corny you definitely don't get all of them. The good ones went whizzing by you unnoticed.

Here's an example episode. I agree there are a few funny jokes here and there but the average underlying tone as I said before is corny as hell. Yes I got all the silent movie references.

The show was decent. It's not even close to the worst animated show. If I remember correctly, I think some people from the Simpsons were involved with it.
