My favorite adult swim cartoon is the first season of Sea lab and especially "the gert pilot" and the other pre first season thing. I'm a pretentious ass in other words. I like some of the other stuff but I think it often degenerated more into juvenile swim, perhaps in a misguided effort to compete with South Park and the like. The bedrock of what I'll watch as far as comedy on tv is the nexus of the Simpsons and Seinfeld, so anything that's not rather alot like those is going to probably get a thumbs down.
I was at first encouraged by this, then a little bored and ultimately impressed. I liked the sort of convenionalness of it, it wasn't trying to be wacky every 5 seconds, it had an actual plot and character development and a story and so forth. There were some ho hum ish episodes but then towards the end of the disk it picked up with one where all these villains come to a yard sale that was basically larry david meets superfriends or something and really entertaining and inspired. So inspired that I actually, get ready for it, kept the DVD for an EXTRA DAY so I could finish it!! If you knew how cheap I was you'd see that for the ringing endorsement that it truly is.
