History Main / AnimatedSitcom

The genre dates back to at least 1960 with the premiere of ''WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones'', but it exploded in popularity in the early 90's with the runaway success of ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'', a heavily satirical and often bizarre animated DomCom that would quickly grow to become one of the most acclaimed, [[GenreTurningPoint influential]], longest-running, and ([[SeinfeldIsUnfunny in its heyday]]) controversial shows in television history. Following that, [[FollowTheLeader just about every television network wanted a slice of the pie]], with wildly varying degrees of success, and the animated sitcom has since become the dominant form of adult animation on television. Almost every show on this list that followed it will probably cite ''The Simpsons'' as a direct inspiration. ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'', ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'', and ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty'' have also proven to cast a long shadow over the genre.
