From some of the Simpsons creative team this is another gem from the 90s that doesn't get its due.

Venture Bros has some of the tightest continuity and serialized storytelling in all of American media.

I think most of the series is on YouTube. But I actually own the entire show on DVD. In fact I made a really close friend in the Navy because he quoted this show.
