I have fond memories of the classic Disney cartoons from the 90s. Darkwing Duck, Talespin, Gargoyles...

Hard to say which one is my favorite. Probably Gargoyles. Let's see how the live action reboot turns out. I hope they can get Jonathan Frakes on board.

Loony Tunes and Merry Melodies. Love me some Bugs. Animaniacs holds a similar place.

Wait, there's a live action Gargoyles in the works?? I am intrigued but also a little frightened.

I loved Gargoyles as a kid!

Ren & Stimpy. No wait, Space Ghost Coast to Coast. Or maybe Futurama. I like 'em weird.

Gargoyles was exactly what came to mind.
Pirates of Dark Water would be my second choice.

Though Appleseed (1988 version) is top tier if I were to not pick a kids show.

I recently re-watched Ren & Stimpy and they did not age well. Cow & Chicken has aged better, but is a product of its era too much to have lasting value.

Futurama is an excellent choice. That one has my vote as well.

I recently discovered Primal. I always loved Tartakovsky (powerpuff girls, Dexter) but this last one is too of the notch!

There's a few hilarious episodes, but most of it is just weird for the sake of weird without being actually funny.

That was true all along. I don't think it was meant to be nonstop comedy.

Individual cartoon? "Billy Boy" from 1954, and "Feed the Kitty" from 1952 are among my perennial favorites.
Comic strips? Calvin and Hobbes, The Far Side, Dykes to Watch Out For, always come to mind.
Comic books? Saga, and Bone are both excellent.
