Eyyy, it's Jacob Bisonowitz... I mean Jackie Bison! When the Simpsons changed animation history, all the other networks scrambled to catch up... you remember Fish Police, you remember Family Dog, you remember Capitol Critters... but do you remember Jackie Bison? Oh, YOU WILL.

Time for Timer! Remember Timer? The anthropomorphic circadian rhythm that appeared on Saturday morning nutrition PSAs throughout the 80s? Yeah, of course you do.

We compared Baby Blues to Mission Hill so much that we decided to just  talk about Mission Hill, the cartoon that is NOT based on a comic but  rather on a comic artist.
