I agree that the mentioned cartoon sounds like crap (So why waste our time talking about it? I don't vent..I prefer to use my spare time in a better way), but all cartoons aren't bad. I actually have gotten to like KING OF THE HILL, and I never watched it because the same people made that shit BEAVIS AND BUTTHEAD, but KOTH is actually funny, the people very real and American, and the father is a likable, sympathetic guy, unlike most cartoon dads. It seems like a real place, and his challenges are real. He tries to do the right thing, although the screwed-up world around him always tries to stop him from doing it. Also, the Vietnamese character is a rather typical asian jerk...a rather realistic depiction. I watch about 15 minutes of KOTH when on night shift and on break. It's ok. And really, the INCREDIBLES was probably more pro-family and pro-Aryan than 80 percent of real-life film and TV.
