With 734 episodes to their name, The Simpsons is currently the longest running scripted series in the history of television.

A notable accomplishment, considering it's a prime time animated series.

While The Flintstones demonstrated that animation could be equally viable in prime time as it was on Saturday mornings, The Simpsons demonstrated even further that animation was not just for children.

Indeed, The Simpsons no doubt paved the way for further animated series catered toward a more mature audience, including South Park, Archer, and Bojack Horseman.

Unlike The Flintstones or The Simpsons, these are shows which are most definitely not for the whole family to enjoy, but rather for parents to tune into after putting the children to bed.

One Redditor was curious to hear what people considered the best animated shows geared toward a mature audience, leading them to ask:
"What's your favorite animated adult show?"

Gamers Rejoice!!!

"Arcane."- GreatNeoDragon

"'Arcane', definitely."

"I never got too deep into its lore, but from what I remember, it had amazing animation, soundtrack, a tight story, and well developed characters."- PrestigiousCount8020

Not So Bad Down There...

"'Hellva Boss'."

"I don't like the fandom they kinda did the same thing 'My Hero Academia' fans did and made it cringe to like'." - Reddit

Don't Be Fooled By The Title...

"Morel Orel."- Novel_Solvings

One Can Only Hope The Future Will Be This Funny

"Really fond of 'Futurama'."

"It gave Matt Groening the opportunity to explore new ideas and go in a direction which network executives wouldn't allow for 'The Simpsons'."

"'Simpsons' got kind of old and tired and way too formulaic.'

"I really appreciate 'Futurama' because it also gave them the opportunity to have a more solid continuity from episode to episode."

"It's less of a weekend cartoon and more of a tv series."- OleviaCaywood·

A Most Worthwhile "Venture" Indeed

"Venture Bros."- JuzoItami

...Did Anyone Else Forget This Was A Thing?...

"Mike Tyson Mysteries."- StringMonkey

Unlike Any Other Late Night Chat Show...

"Space Ghost Coast to Coast."- muttly_lol

A Pre-Historic Masterpiece

"Primal."- FloridaFlamingoGirl

"Holy Sh*tsnacks"

"Archer."- WhenTardigradesFly

For a genre most frequently associated with children, it's truly amazing how an animated series can be as or more moving, funny, and frightening than any live action series.

And for all those accusing the The Simpsons of getting stale or tired, I ask you one simple question.

What would Halloween be without Treehouse of Horror?

Karoline Leavitt Slammed After Suggesting Reports Of Deadly Strike On Iranian Girls' School Are Just 'Propaganda'

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was criticized after she rejected reports that the U.S. struck a girls' elementary school in Iran, killing 175 people, insisting in remarks to the press pool that it's just Iranian "propaganda" that they've "fallen" for.

Iranian state media and health officials said the strike occurred early Saturday morning in Minab, in the country’s southern Hormozgan Province. Journalists from international news organizations have not been granted access to independently verify the reported death toll or the circumstances surrounding the strike.

Model Accuses Fashion Brand Of Using AI To Recreate Her Looks For Ad Instead Of Hiring Her

There used to be laws in place for someone's likeness being used without their consent, and most certainly if their likeness was being used in an exploitative way for profit.

But now with the rise of AI-generated photographs, advertisements, and other digital products, the lines seem to have become muddied between the illegal stealing of someone's likeness and AI "inspiration."

TikToker Secretly Records Unhinged Spectrum Employee Screaming At Her For Trying To Cancel Her Service

Employees in commission-based positions are feeling increasingly pressured to acquire new clients, retain previous clients, and solve the issues their clients call in about with high satisfaction ratings.

Even though tensions are high, and the pressure they're feeling may be unrealistic for any one person to take, that doesn't give them the right to mistreat people who do not want to sign up or want to cancel.
