"so I pulled out my gun...."

I wonder how many of the 343,000 Canadians who saw the show speak with a French accent?

[Number57]

Saw it. That was some funny stuff. They made Team America as well. And Baseketball. Those guys dig at everyone; the world is their target. Many episodes are offensive and obscene... but funny. The creators never seem to run out of steam. I have nothing bad to say about them. Extremely creative and hard working.

Check out 'Cannibal: The Musical' if you get a chance (which Trey made while in college).

The video to the real "Trapped in the Closet" song is the most unintentionally hilarious thing I have ever seen.

Thanks... read a few lines and laughed already. Back to your link!

The video to the real "Trapped in the Closet" song is the most unintentionally hilarious thing I have ever seen.

Especially if you've seen that SP episode first. They have the R.Kelly video here.

BTW, I take it you're an Aqua Teen fan, too. I found the latest episodes pretty disappointing, what did you think of them?

[flashbunny]

"the pizza" parody from jimmy kimmel live is pretty dang funny as well.

[WestVirginiaRebel]

Who would win in a fight-Terence and Philip or the Mooninites? : )

[lesser_satan]

Probably the Mooninites, as they have superior technology. I guess it depends on whose side Emory and Oglethorpe are on. >8^)>~

[Hong Kong Expat]

Out here in HK, I had no idea what the R. Kelly thing was about. It was funny just because it was weird, but it made no sense.

Then when I visited NYC for the Holidays, I saw one of those year end show which they talked about R. Kelly's "inside the closet."

Can't wait to see the real thing and South Park again.

They haven't been as good as I expected, but they aren't bad. They are still worth watching, but not that great.

I agree. It's still my favorite show on Adult Swim, but they weren't the strongest ATHF episodes put out. Maybe they'll age better on a repeat viewing as other episodes have for me.

I'm a bit worried about the Aqua Teen movie they're working on, and the reason we've barely had any new episodes. The best part about ATHF is that it's insanity condensed to 10 minutes. I don't know how well that'll do in a 90 minute format.

They dropped the ball on the season 4 dvd set too. The inside art/layout is nauseating, and hard to read. The "play all" joke is more of a kick in the nuts than a joke, especially since the previous sets had a real, and very useful, play all, which is a necessity for any short episode based dvd set.

[lesser_satan]

Either of you ever watch Robot Chicken? That's another one of my favorites.

[Mr. Blonde]

I was so pissed off about the play all joke.

I think some of the episodes will age pretty well. A lot of episodes grow on me that I didn't really like before.

One of my buddies has the Home Movies DVDs I watched some of those and they have their moments too.

I hope the ATHF movie is pretty good. I know on IMDB a lot of people think it is a hoax but I have faith that it is true. It has a lot of potential to be good because it can use all of the secondary characters where the episodes are so short the ones where they try to bring in a lot of characters don't work.

Personally, I wish Carl got his own movie.

[Thoro]

I was so pissed off about the play all joke.

Heh, you probably spent as much time as me scowering the dvd in vain in hopes of finding a real "play all". I'm still amazed they were that arrogant, as it was a sure-fire way to needlessly piss off the fanbase. I know I was ticked.

One of my buddies has the Home Movies DVDs I watched some of those and they have their moments too.

Home Movies is one of my favorite shows. The only problem with the show is that you have to watch enough of the episodes to get familiar with the characters before it hooks you. The first season's hit and miss, but the seasons after that are excellent, but only *if* you intiated yourself into their world.

Personally, I wish Carl got his own movie.

Now that would be freakin awesome!

Robot Chicken's one of my usual Adult Swim staples too. I think I heard that there's a dvd set coming out of the first season soon.
