It's a common characteristic of the internet to find people complaining of how great cartoons used to be, and how terrible they are now. But is this true? Are we blinded by nostalgia, or have cartoons actually gotten worse since we were younger?

Futurama and American Dad! both felt like they declined during their fifth seasons (Futurama's "season 5" is technically "season 6", I think). I couldn't put my finger on it, but they just weren't as [i]good[/i] as before. A lot of the humour kind of went away, too and was replaced by stuff that felt like they were trying to be just 'edgy'. Though, by Season 6 or 7, both seemed to have picked themselves back up.
