LEAST favorite comic strip?

[Archae]

We have a favorite comic strip thread, so here's a least favorite comic strip one.

For me, it's "Mallard Fillmore."

UNfunny, uses strawmen and stereotypes, not to mention flat out deception to slam liberals.

1. "Mary Worth," "Judge Parker," and the like. Who reads them?

3. Same people who watch soap operas.

That's all they are, soap operas in comic strip form.

6. I guess so. Old ladies, I think.

2. Well, that was mine.

I guess "The Wizard of Id" will have to be a distant second.

4. B.C. and Garfield

In addition to those two, I want to add these:

B.C. -- occasionally the writer shows his right wing bent.
Garfield -- that cat and his jokes have been recycled too often.

My favorites: Get Fuzzy, Boondocks. Also, the one with the school janitor who dates the teacher -- they both ride bikes. Can't remember the name but it's great.

5. Why the Wizard Of Id?

10. Y'know,

I was actually thinking of B.C. (same artist?) but I guess I could argue for the Wizard of Id just out of sheer unfunniness.

(Yes, yes, the king is a fink...what else you got?)

7. I despise Garfield.

Maddox has a great take on it at this link.

12. I once worshipped Garfield. The brother of a famous MLB player

once drew a bunch of them for me as a Christmas present. Matt Lawton, in case anyone cares. His brother and I were in a creative writing class together, and he drew my name for handmade Christmas presents. I was so known for Garfield affinities that he drew a bunch of Garfields. Technically, that was odd, since it was a creative writing class, not drawing. But Marcus went on to play minor league ball, and wound up in the majors a couple of times before getting injured. I saw him at our class reunion. Very tall. He was... Oh, who am I kidding, no one's reading this. I'm going to eat.

13. ...But...but...

what happened to the...oh, never mind.

18. It just sort of...

you know....

8. Prickley City

9. B.C.

[SacredCow]

11. So much crap out there now....

Garfield (I'm a dog person)
Family Circus (Shouldn't have to explain that one)
Cathy (I concede that I'm the polar opposite of it's target audience, but I still have to mention it)

Frankly, I haven't read the comics since Watterson retired.

14. BC, Family Circus, Dennis the Menace

The only likeable "Dennis" character is ol' Ruff.

[Monkey see Monkey Do]

15. Marmaduke

Never laughed, barely understood it & it took up valuable space in my Sunday comics pullout. I've just looked up a selection online & it hasn't changed my mind one iota.

This, however, is funny:
