On one of thebroadcast networks (I’m thinking NBC.) Lasted only a few episodes. Was IIRC somewhat controversial. I remember a scene where a horse falls down a cliff, then explodes like a car in an action movie. At first I was thinking _God, the Devil, and Bob_, but it isn’t. Then I thought _The Oblongs_, but it isn’t.

Could be conflating with this scene?

After seeing your link I thought to google cartoon horse explodes (as I should have done in the first place) and answered my own question–it was [_Stressed Eric_](https://youtube.com/watch?v=bP-cnSYoSBs#). Looks like I did pull some of the details from that _Family Guy_ scene, though.
