Has anyone noticed that recently in family guy and since the beginning in futurama, the animation retains the cartoon style, but the 3-d is a LOT smoother?

That shows an example of it right at the end. The tie fighters and death star illustrate what I mean. Does anyone know how they achieve the 3-d without looking CGI, like this:

Anyone know how the animators get that effect?

Yeah, Cel shading's the answer (It seems to go both ways (Cel/Cell) sometimes). I really love the style you can make with it.
