Why couldn't the show have been about him? He was funnier than everyone else. Hell most of the adults were funnier than the kids
>>
Hugh Neutron was better
>>
>>81737901
Hugh is indeed Elder God tier but Mr. Turner is still high tier
>>
Yo here's an idea: make a show with only cartoon dads. No super competent wives to make them stand out as oafs and no kids that they have to deal with. They all live in the same house and get into antics

Imagine Hugh and Mr. Turner and Stan Smith all going on a buddy cop adventure
>>
>>81737870
>He was funnier than everyone else

Only because you saw him in short bursts. He was funny for the same reason Hugh Neutron was funny, he's a dumb adult who's humorous stupidity is juxtaposed with the child main character (and by proxy the intended audience who are also children) and occasionally subverted because he is indeed an adult.

If the show focused on him all the time it would get old really fucking fast. Imagine Archer had a desk job and was totally incompetent 100% of the time.

>imagine the Three Stooges

I'm laughing
>>
>>81738040

What you're saying is a true in a sense but after so many instances of the straight man playing a completely uninteresting foil (not to mention that Timmy is a horrible character period) I think it would be worth it to see what happens when they're removed.

>>81737989

This would either be great or terrible but I'm thinking great.
>>
>>81738094
The Three Stooges were a product of their time. And definitely not what I described. At the core of the Three Stooges was their physical comedy and their chemistry as a group.

A show about just one of the Three Stooges would be pretty stupid.

Dadhouse fixes this problem

>>81737989
Holy fuck that would be rad as hell

This post sucks

you mean it isn't? Every new episode always has him and Crocker in it for one reason or another.

The answer to your question is called Season 9.

Let's not go back to that dark age
>>
Disregard the gay OP so we can focus on Dadhouse

Actually I just might make a Dadhouse thread after this dies
>>
>>81739699
is Milhouse allowed?
>>
>>81737989

YEAH-UH!
>>
>>81737989
>>81739699


It wont work because of >>81738040

These people work in short bursts or with people to play off of.

Look at Planet Sheen. Too much Sheen made Sheen suck.
>>
>>81740068
>Implying Sheen was ever good.
>>
>>81740081
Sheen was the best character in Jimmy Neutron besides Hugh.
>>
>>81740068

They play off of each other. Put them in a room together and their inanity isn't a juxtaposition to someone rolling their eyes and going UGH - it's an open conversation that builds off of itself. Two minutes of these people talking to and agreeing with each other would result in a episode's worth of fallout

Or if you insist, allow Milhouse and make him their caretaker
>>
>>81737989
Add Randy Marsh in there and you got yourself a show.
>>
>>81737870
I like his voice.

>>81743843

isn't that how Biodome happened?
>>
>>81737989
The best part of the oafish cartoon dad is how they play off of their wives and their kids. You remove them, they cease to be oafish cartoon dads, and become annoying assholes.
>>
>>81737989
>no wives or kids
>no foil

also, Mrs. Turner was equally as stupid and pretty funny herself
>>
Is it too much to ask for an oafish cartoon mom? This would please several of my fetishes
>>
>>81737989
>Show about cartoon dads
> No kids

So what, all the kids have moved out? What's the fun in that?
>>
>>81737989
>cartoon dads
>no kids
Then they wouldn't be dads. What you'd basically end up with is a Goofy cartoon with multiple goofys.

It would be like a show about the Rugrats parents.
