Harvey Birdman is such a cult classic. I know this one won't be close due to Rick and Morty being HUGE but at least Harvey got a vote not by me but it got one.

This is certainly a challenging choice. Very different varieties of technically the same kind of show. I think I'll go Rick & Morty by a thin margin. The Brak Show might have been a different outcome
