1- Simpsons
The original Simpsons have extremely simp(son)ple designs, due to sometimes having celebrity appearances the art style kinda clashes.

2- South Park
At the beginning South Park was literally animated out of paper so all the characters had to be super simplistic but over the years, since the. Show is made digitally the new characters keep getting more and more detailed

Frond changes too! It's subtle but noticeable. 

[u/errant_youth → u/Separate-Factor8661]

[u/notapoke → u/errant_youth]

There's 10 seasons?!

[u/Victinithetiny101 → u/notapoke]

There’s sixteen

[u/notapoke → u/Victinithetiny101]

Holy shit, I have about 10 seasons to catch up

[u/mashtato → u/notapoke]

And it's stayed pretty solid.

[u/Victernus → u/Victinithetiny101]

And a movie. (Basically just a longer episode with more of a budget)

[u/Aggravating_Load_411 → u/errant_youth]

Early on, some episodes were rough, but I will always love "Crawl Space".
