Megas XLR (TV Series 2004–2005) – IMDb

So me and my friends wake up one Sunday morning after a party and flip on the TV, and end up watching cartoon shows. We got a blast from the past in Captain Planet, we were nostalgic over Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (have you seen the new version? it’s terrible!), and then we wandered across Megas about halfway through the episode “Ice Ice Megas.” Good god, I’ve never laughed so hard. All three of us were splitting our sides over the writing of this show. What got me hooked was how all the characters, main or otherwise, bounced off of each other. Little moments just made the show for me, where the ice man yells “We are saved!” after Coop smashes a bad guy, only to change his mind with “We are doomed…” when Coop knocks over a building not ten seconds later.

Not to mention the total lack of continuity in Megas’ abilities. The contents of his chest cavity change ALL THE TIME.

For its sharp writing and and phenomenal ability to parody genre after genre, I can say without doubt, that I DIG GIANT ROBOTS!
