The Problem Solverz vs. Superjail!?

Both shows are reviled by animation conoisseurs, and I'm not exactly sure why, since I love them, but people hate them, and that's a cold, hard fact of life. The Problem Solverz (currently available on Netflix; may or may not be getting a second season on Cartoon Network) is the story of 3 heroes who solve problems; Roba, a guy who dresses as a robot, and is the smart (but neurotic) one of the group; Horace, the plain-looking straight-man of the group, as well as the leader; and, last but not least, Alfe (Al-fay), the pizza-loving, incompetent "half-man, half-dog, and half-anteater (I don't know how that works), who is consistently the one who causes the problem. The live in the town of Farmboro, a crazy, seizure-inducing circus-act of a town; and are mentored by Tux Dog, a rich, sophisticated dog in a tuxedo, who constantly makes fun of how not "him" they are. The show is reviled because of the flashing, multitude of colors, and somehwat crude flash-like animation, and because most people associate it with the cancellation of Sym-Bionic Titan (even though it was cancelled long before The Problem Solverz).

Superjail! (available on Adult Swim and DVD) is a wacky comedy about the Warden, a sadistic, eccentric Willy Wonka-esque, off-model, loon, who dresses in a purple tuxedo and hat, and who controls Superjail, the most complex jail in the universe, for the baddest of the bad guys, and his lackie, Jared; his security guard, Alice, who he has a crush on (who has given multiple hints that she may be more of a man than she lets on); Jailbot, a robot who acts a something of a pet to the Warden, and at the beginning of the show apprehends Jackknife, a really messed up criminal, who somehow manages to escape at the end of ever episode; a pair of blonde, humanoid alien twins, who seem to be there for soul reason of screwing up the Warden's plans; two married inmates named Paul and Jean; Ash, a pyromaniac inmate; Gary, a silent man who is a servant to a canary named bird; the Doctor, Superjail's resident doctor, who is very Frankenstein-esque, and fought in WWII; Lord Mistress, the warden of a rival jail, who has it in for the Warden; and Lord Stingray, a Cobra Commander like "supervillain", who crashlanded on the island the show is set, and tried to conquer it, but was imprisoned, and now he tries to make the Warden's life a living hell. The shows revels in graphic violence, which is one of it's detractors for many; and every episode in season 1 would end in a massive, large-scale, extremely violent bloodshed marathon, and some episodes would end with no resolution whatsoever.\

Well, now that you know about them, go watch the entirety of them (TPS has one season, while Superjail has three), and tell me which one you think is the lesser of the two evils.
