Adult Swim

How about fans of this line up?

Aqua Teen Hunder Force
The Venture Brothers
Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law
Moral Orel
Sealab 2021
The Brak Show
Space Ghost, Coast to Coast

I like all of these (with the exception of Space Ghost and Moral Orel) but for me The Venture Brothers rocks cock the hardest.

Space Ghost is the only one I've seen, although not this millennium. ATHF I've heard of, but never seen. You recommend then?

I certainly do, but I'd be surprised if you found it agreeable.

Yeah Venture Bros are great, and the few episodes of Sealab 2021 I've seen were very funny. Not too keen on the rest of them, Robot Chicken is great.

Some of the humour in these shows is amazingly good. My favourite is probably Harvey Birdman. The writers just take screwiness to it's highest level. It's like an animated version of a Marx Brothers film. Space Ghost can also be similarly nutty. Did you ever see the episode that featured Bjork? If not, look out for it.

The great Brad Neely, http://www.creasedcomics.com/ ,has a new cartoon on Adult Swim, 'China, Il'; it's very funny.

I think I'm going to give 'Moral Orel' a go. I've seen a few clips which have all been pretty funny, and have heard pretty much all good things about it.

:)

I'm currently enjoying two new Adult Swim shows, there's the great Brad Neely's 'China, Il', and, from the people who made 'Wondershowzen', 'The Heart, She Holler', starring Patton Oswalt and Kristen Schaal.

I didn't realise The Heart, She Holler had started already. That's (a very short portion of) my evening sorted!

There's two episodes out, I think the whole series is being stripped over this one week. The two episodes are mental.

Strangeness from the people who bought us Xavier: Renegade Angel?

Venture Bros is utterly brilliant, and one of my favourite shows ever. Metalocalypse comes a close second though, it's really good. I defiantly recommend it if you like some of AS's other shows, even if it's not quite as good as VB.

Re-reading this thread I must apologise to Aaron for my shortness in that second post. How much has changed in these last four years.

Are you sure you didn't make them up?
I've never heard one word of that before.

I own most of them on DVD, so I hope not. If I were to make some up I would say stuff like...

Barberella's Bum Bag
The Confederacy of Nonces
Oh My Terry Christian!
