So first off, hells yes to Harvey Birdman! That was my husband and Iβs you want to hang out and watch something show when we were first dating. Sealab 2021, Space Ghost, Adventure Time, Aeon Flux, and Futurama all have a special place too.

Whats the difference in Sealab 2020 and 2021?
Adventure Time. I can watch it endlessly.
Itβs been a while now but I used to watch gravity falls so often I could tell you almost all the jokes and gags in every episode.
Watching the Brak Show feels like smoking weed to me, but I'm completely sober. Except for when I'm high.
Bobs burger and first 9 seasons of southpark.
Samurai Jack
Futurama, Rick and Morty, and archer
Did you get that thing I sent ya?
Ha. Haaaaaaa. Noses of dowels!
Its Aqua Teen Hunger Force for me
Rick and Morty, Owl House, Gravity Falls
In no particular order, Archer, Futurama, Pink Panther (the original)
Cowboy Bebop
As in "I wish I could stop but it keeps pulling me back"?
I had that with a few kid shows, recently The Amazing World Of Gumball.
Gundam Wing. Looking at it objectively it's one of the weaker Gundam series but something about it just fires up all my neurons.
King of the Hill. I love the characters so much, especially the dynamic between Hank and Bobby.
Norm McDonaldβs character Pigeon in Mike Tyson Mysteries on Adult Swim
Tigtone. It's so weird and disturbing to watch,yet hilarious. Perfect
I'm still hoping for another season.
Bort
That's a very generic name.
Futurama!
Aqua teen hunger force
Eh, none of them to that degree. There's really nothing that's ever been on TV that I can't be patient with, and I can't binge watch much of anything.
However, Metalocalype and The Venture Bros, I can watch more of at once than anything else, even animated media that I technically like more. Which seems weird on the surface, but the reason is that I don't have to watch every second of those two to enjoy every second of the episodes. Particularly on rewatches, though it was the case when they were new anyway.
If you want to talk about the other shows that are almost bingeable for me, but I need to be able to sustain watching, that's Samurai Jack and Primal. Both of them take animated storytelling and turn it into a form of art that transcends a single genre. Brilliant scripts, and the art styles were and are compelling in a way nothing I had seen before matched.
Part of the barrier is just attention span. Since I had to give up stimulants of any kind, including caffeine and nicotine, I'm reminded of why school could be so damn hard when I was a kid. Not the most severe expression of attention issues, but enough that after a few episodes, I need a break from being locked in fully.
The other part is just being old and not wanting to sit in one place and get stiff and sore.
Venture Bros is a damn treasure. I so hate that it got cancelled, at least we got a movie that ended it sorta.
billy and mandy
Grim and Evil was dope too
