The spastic E.T., along with the world around him, capitalizes on cheeky, masochistic, and random humor in ways viewers of all ages can appreciate.

The deliriously original Invader Zim rocks.

Invader Zim is a perfect example of a cartoon that straddles the line between children's and adult entertainment.

Invader Zim is by and large an unapologetically goofy show, which is a big part of its appeal.
January 31, 2019
The show's sense of humor is somehow dark without being bleak; even when the show takes its cues from horror movies - it's often quite scary - it's somehow never too much.

The strange and fantastical spaceships and technology that creator Jhonen invented for his world, along with a hint at the show's humor and art style, all of which help demonstrate what made Invader Zim the cult cartoon hit it still is today.
