At the time, it was probably Ren & Stimpy or Space Ghost Coast to Coast. Both were unapologetically weird.

In retrospect, probably Reno 911! Not only was it loaded with funny scenarios and running gags and tons of guest comics, but the physical comedy was really good. They were always tackling somebody or running over Junior with a Hummer or somesuch, and it was usually the main actors doing the stunts.

Honorable mention to Strangers with Candy. It took the Seinfeld formula of a sitcom full of disagreeable people and amped the contempt to 11.
