Anyone else a fan of this show? Only lasted 1 season on Adult Swim and I don't understand why. It's better than the other crap they air save for Home Movies(which was also canceled :smash: ).

I've never heard of either of those. I have a hard time believing that they are better than Robot Chicken or the first couple seasons of Sealab. You might just have odd taste in Adult Swim shows. :p

I've only seen a few of S&H and I found them pretty funny. I can't seem to get into the other shows like Robot Chicken. Shin Chan is another show that find can be good most of the time.

Robot Chicken is just ok. It really just looks like a few 8 year olds playing with dolls making funny voices. It can get repetitive and annoying.

Don't think I've ever seen Venture Bros.

Metalocalypse, squidbillies, Tim & Eric, Assy McGee, and all that crappy anime I could definitely do without. I really dislike the seasons after the 4th one of Family Guy. Don't really care for Aqua Teen Hunger Force either.

Saw a couple episodes of that Harvey Birdman show and it was alright.

I get at least one genuine LOL moment out of a Stroker and Hoop episode. Plus, Stroker really reminds me of Louis C.K.

Hey, something is wrong with them if they don't like Home Movies. :biggrin: McGuirk4Prez!

Home Movies was ok. It certainly had it's moments, but it never seemed to have a plot. I really think since they ran out of hanabarbara cartoons to remake, and since ATHF is such a commercial success despite a extremely weird storyline, Adult Swim has had the attitude if the weirder the better.

Sealab was great before the guy who voiced Captain Murphy died. It was even good after that, but it was hit or miss.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force was great, but after a while it got too weird.

Harvey Birdman was pretty funny at times, but overall not as good.

Home Movies is great, but its working on a different level. You don't have to be high or stupid to watch it like ATHF.

Stroker & Hoop was also pretty good. I know it was an homage to cheesy P.I. dramas, but it still seemed the show was written and voiced by amateurs at times.

I also liked The Boondocks, but have never gone out of my way to watch it.

The rest of the stuff is crap - including Robot Chicken.

OregonBuckeye--the same guy who created Home Movies also created Metalocolypse... if you haven't given it its full due, I suggest you do. Brendan Small is a genius. Metalocolypse might me the best show that Adult Swim has full rights to right now. For any fan of metal, this show is also great. The fact that I appreciate Brendan Small and also love metal has given me a hell of a bias and I understand this... but it really is brilliant.

Aqua Teen, though many have given up on it, has really rebounded after a lackluster second half of a 4th and most of a 5th season. It's Adult Swim's biggest cash cow and it's understandable why. Master Shake.

I've grown to accept the fact that my dislike for "cop drama" has grown into an appreciation for Assy McGee's satire on it and it's in the VERY small minority, but I still enjoy it for what it is. The same applies to the ridiculous redneckitude of Squidbillies (though their second season was weak, season 1 and season 3 are gold. Dan Halen.) Family Guy and American Dad are both hilarious--Seth McFarlane is a genius.
