    This contest is about animated series in the science fiction and fantasy genres.
    So... no movies or shorts (or series of movies :p), it has to be a regular old-fashioned TV series. If a series is based on a movie, that's totally fine but the entry must be from the show itself.

    Only shows whose premise is SF&F are allowed, so stuff like The Simpsons would be ruled out even though it has plenty of individual fantastical episodes.

    Standard avatar rules, two entries per person so... start animating! :techman:

    That's from Archer, right? I was under the impression it's primarily a spy show so I'm not sure if it fits the criteria of the premise being SF&F but I've never watched it so I might be wrong.

    It's more or less sci-fi, it's got cyborgs, undersea bases, space stations, aliens, and things like that. It used to be a spy show, but now it's switched over to an anthology format, at least for the time being.

    The next anthology season actually appears to be going full on space sci-fi. The last scene of the most recent season, which was set on a tropical island shortly after WWII, was the characters waking up from cryo sleep on a futuristic spaceship.

    @dodge will correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under the impression "standard avatar rules" included a max. data size of 1 Mb.

    Well, yes. It's 7.8 Mb.

    Edit: Been trying to help you out using Ezgif, but I can't get it lower than 1.39 Mb without losing a lot of quality.

    Yeah, that is indeed the rule but I'm fine with a little leeway, let's say ~1,5 MB-ish...

    @Kerock Do you wish to enter both of those? I don't mind, but people usually enter only one for a series so as not to split the vote.
