This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | The Critic was a short-lived prime time animated series that featured Jon Lovitz as the voice of the titular critic. It was created by Al Jean and Mike Reiss, who were also writers for The Simpsons. The show is notable for being picked up by four different networks. It was launched on ABC in 1994, where it was cancelled after a month, but brought back in the summer to air the remaining season. It was picked up by FOX the following year and ran it for a full second season before dropping it. After this it was aired on Comedy Central. It was later picked up by UPN, who never actually aired episodes of the show. In Latin America, this show was aired on Locomotion before turning into Animax. Ten short flash cartoons (webisodes) based on the series appeared on the internet over 2000-01. The DVD box set was released in 2004, which includes all the TV episodes and has the webisodes as extras. During the late 2000s, the show has aired in syndication. In September 2006, IGN ranked the show 9th in their list of the Top 25 Primetime Animated Series of All Time. In January 2009, they also ranked the show 26th in their other list of the Top 100 Best Animated TV Series. In December 2011, Complex ranked the show 6th in their own list of The 25 Most Underrated Animated TV Shows Of All Time. |
