I can list 15 scenes from "24" off the top of my head that are 10 times sadder than that scene from Lion King.
Name these fifteen scenes from "24" that you claim are ten times sadder than Simba, in a state of denial, crying over the body of his dead father. If you can come up with ANY legitimately sadder scenes from that retarded show I will be shocked

A perfect example. It's funny to think that back when The Simpsons first made the leap from animated shorts to their own show the idea that a cartoon that wasn't aimed only at children could succeed was considered by many to be preposterous, and now it's like the most successful television show of all time. Shows like South Park, Family Guy, Futurama, etc, just further enforce what can be achieved with the medium.
