Hey y'all! I'm gonna do my own poll series (inspired by Pikachu Almighy & Rainer). This one is to figure out what is the best toon ever! First, I'll do big toons, then shorts, then Powered by The Cheat, then Puppet Stuff, then I'll do a final poll with the four winners to find out what's the best EVA!! For this one, I've always been partial to The Luau.

Poll expires May 15.

i went for 'A Jorb Well Done' because it is funny to watch, and the first toon with TBC'c current style of drawing.

Bug in Mouth and Shopping for Danger are definitely #1 and #2 for me respectively. Skillet nap!

Strong Bad Is In Jail just didn't have the appeal to me for some reason.

Where's the Cheat gets an Honourable Mention for having Marzy go nuts. :mrgreen:

My favorite is Shopping For Danger, because I love Cheat Commandos! My second favorite toon is Where's The Cheat?

I voted "Jorb Well Done." It's so good for new visitors to H*R to see what it's all about.

"Parsnips-A-Plenty" comes in second.

I liked "Where's The Cheat" the most because it has Homestar Jr. in it along with it being the first toon I ever saw on Homestar Runner.

Bug In Mouth Disease was good, but I had to go with the Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon. You really get to see Strong Bad at his funniest. :sb:

Where's The Cheat?, man. It's a classic.

But what about Holiday toons? Those are some of the best ones! (You should have two polls for that one: Best Halloween Toon, and Best Other Holiday Toon.)

I actually had to watch all the big toons in a row again to answer this poll, and I think I'd have to go with Where's The Cheat? Pom Pom being 'killed', Strong Sad playing Connect Four with Homsar, 'The King's gone mad with power! He's gonna eat The Chort!'.... classic stuff. Though all the recent ones are really good in their own way as well.

How come there are only 'DVD commentaries' for two of the worst toons on the site, though? It would be hilarious if, say, Strong Bad Is In Jail Cartoon had commentary instead of the unwatchable crap that is In Search Of The Yello Dello, which couldn't even be saved by that. Good thing the toons (and E-mails) improved from there.

My favorite is Where's the Cheat? I mean, it's the best example of classic Homestar Runner. That, and it has the best music out of the big toons (the music that plays in the opening and the end). Also, it's the first big toon I've watched, so that makes it even more special. Otherwise, I might have said Shopping for Danger.

It used to be "Where's The Cheat".

But now, i'm stuck between "Where's "The Cheat" and "Bug In Mouth Disease"...

Eh, i'll vote for Where's The Cheat.

Hmm, tough call. I think I'm going to have to go with SB Is In Jail though, if only for "then we can retire... TO THE MOON!"

I chose "A Jorb Well Done". It was my first big toon, and it still makes me laugh. "Where's the Cheat?" takes a very close second.

Oh! Thanks for reminding me. God forbid I leave out the one that has *bows* Halloween Fairstival *bows* in it.

Question: What is the max number of poll options? I need to know so I know if I have to break up holiday or shorts into two separate polls.

Amen, Dormroom.

I've noticed in the last year and a half or so that most peoples' favorite toon/email is usually the newest one.

That bugs me.

Which is kind of strange for you to notice considering "Where's The Cheat?" is winning by a lot.

Yeah, "where's the Cheat" has proven to have lasting quality. It's almost not fair to include brand new ones in this kind of poll, because the novelty of it all hasn't had a chance to wear off yet.

Technically those weren't The Cheat, they were Cheat Commandos.
