A place for news and discussion of animated shows, shorts, or movies aimed at audiences 13+.
CONDUCT RULES
1) No bigotry (sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia).
2) Be civil, kind, and try to stay positive. Not every show is for everyone and you’re free to give a critique; someone giving reasons why they didn’t enjoy something may help others decide if it’s for them. However, if people are discussing a show and you come along just to say, ‘This sucks, I hate it.’ that’s just being negative and unhelpful- Please don’t. Try just not venturing into posts about shows you personally despise.
POST RULES
3) No porn/hentai.
4) Tag nudity NSFW. Sometimes these shows contain nudity and non-pornographic nudity is allowed; but it must be tagged NSFW.
5) EVERYDAY Posts that are text (comments or questions or discussion starters) or links (articles or videos) and are related in some way to a non-anime adult animation are always welcome, regardless of if a theme day is also active.
6) THEME DAYS
Meme Mondays Image/Meme/Fanart posts relating to anything animated (adult, family-friendly, and anime) welcome on Mondays. (Remember rules 3-4; and if you share someone else's art, please credit and link to their social media.)
Anime Tuesdays and Thursdays Posts pertaining to adult anime welcome on Tuesdays and Thursdays. [Note: Anime means animation originating from Japan. It does not mean animation originating from other Asian countries or Western animation that uses an anime style of art; those would be considered non-anime.]
Family Fridays Posts pertaining to family-friendly animation (including family-friendly anime) welcome on Fridays.
Full disclosure- I have never moderated a community before. I started this because it’s something I would like to see. If it picks up and I can’t keep up, or whatever, I would be open to turning over the reigns to someone else.

I'm kind of curious what your like top 5-ish animated adult shows are. Obviously this community is for any/all adult animation, past and present. If you're looking for something new to watch maybe you can make a post. I can't guarentee engagement but perhaps somebody knows something more to your tastes that you haven't seen yet.
Sorry for being a dick.

Alright, I've seen Futurama, Simpsons, Clone High, Family Guy and Cowboy Bebop. I'll suggest some shows and include where they legally reside [in the US]. (There are other ways but I'll leave those to the communities about that.) I'm not sure our tastes are very similar and these are mostly known, I don't tend to know obscure things, so you may have already tried them all; but-
Pantheon - Sci-Fi - Prime Video - season 2 airing now
A lot of what you mentioned is comedy, whereas this one is serious but it is a sci-fi, like a few of the shows you like. I think it's pretty solid but I'll warn that it doesn't feel binge-able because it's a bit intense.
Central Park - Musical Sit-Com - Apple TV+ - 3 seasons - neither renewed nor canceled
You didn't mention Bob's Burgers, but this is from the same creator/studio. You mentioned early Simpsons so maybe you'd like this, though that depends on your feeling towards musicals too.
F is for Family - Sit-Com - Netflix - 5 seasons - Ended
Unlike Central Park, this one is more in line with Family Guy. It's more raunchy than the other sit-coms on this list, but it's also got a 70s setting that gives it a good feel and some uniqueness.
Close Enough - Sit-Com - VOD purchase amazon/apple/vudu - 3 seasons - Canceled
From the creator of Regular Show. This one is shorter episodes and pretty much just comedy and a bit surreal.
Bless the Harts - Sit-Com - Hulu - 2 seasons - Canceled
This is another more wholesome sit-com, it's also a bit more southern. You didn't mention King of the Hill; but if you liked any of that, you'd maybe like this. It's mostly grounded and only occasionally a bit over the top. The first season is better than the second, in my opinion.
Inside Job - Sci-Fi Sit-Com - Netflix - 2 parts - Canceled
I kind of mostly mention this one because I feel like it got more solid praise than a lot of recent adult animation. Seems like everything that comes out faces very mixed reviews but most people seemed to like this one.
Captain Fall - Dark Comedy - Netflix - 1 season - neither renewed nor canceled
This one I'll admit is a complete shot in the dark and I'm probably way off base here- I never really got into the Venture Bros but when I see clips of that and the trailer for this they give me the same sort of uninterested feeling. I don't think the plot-lines are really all that similar but they both feel, idk action-y. It's similar to how I feel about Archer too- I don't tend to get into action/spy/adventure like things much.
Anyway, if you are ever looking for suggestions you can def make a post anytime, other people probably know shows I don't. Or maybe some show that isn't out yet will be more your speed in the future. It seems like adult animation might be on the rise, so maybe, never know.
