Aaagh! It's the Mr. Hell Show!

You know, one of the screaming tragedy of Bob Monkhouse's death?

Was that he never got to work on a second series of the gleefully wicked 'Arrrgh, It's Mr Hell.'

If anyone could do a wise cracking devil?

It was him.

Combine all that with some riotously funny, but very adult, sketches? You have a cult show that should've got more airtime than it did.

And a screaming loss for anyone how would've gone for the sort of humour best represented by a cartoon devil who's very voice had THE knowing smirk!

This was a great show that unfortunately many people didn't get a chance to see as it played on pay cable. I really miss it and wish that it were available on DVD.

Be forewarned, however, that despite this being a cartoon, it certainly isn't a show for kids--with sexual humor, violence, animal cruelty and all-around bad behavior. The show is a long series of very short cartoons that are strung together by a tenuous plot about a guy named "Mr. Hell" who looks like a stereotypical devil. The jokes are very hit-miss--but they mostly hit and are hilarious. Because it's so wicked and in such bad taste, I advise you to watch it but only alone so your friends and loved ones won't know your secret.

THIS IS BAR NONE THE FUNNIEST CANADIAN CARTOON EVER! Josh kicks ass, as well as the ubiquitous mr. hell. Just amazing. Kicks Kevin Spencer's ass! I like the one where he "helps" disillusion the underpriveliged third world kid. Brings a tear to my eye, memories of Ren and Stimpy. Mr. K is definitely paid some kick-ass homage here

Mr. Hell is a TV show that has to be watched multiple times to understand the plot. At the core, it's about a Devilish-looking creature named Mr. Hell. Hes single, has a son, and every episode shows us an assortment of different animated shorts, including Serge the Killer Seal Pup (he just kills anyone and everyone), Josh (a human who dies and always comes back to life in the form of a different animal, just to be killed again and come back again, etc.), Champion the Wonder Snail (saves people, but very slow), etc. One thing can be said, though: This show is not for children. It may poke fun at movies such as The Lion King and The Little Mermaid, but this show is intended to be watched by adults because of the language used in it. So, what else can be said of The Mr. Hell Show? It's one of the best cult-animated TV shows I've ever seen, and whoever viewed it and approved it to be aired on Showtime: I thank you! My rating: 9/10

I was first exposed to this brilliant comedy by a friend,unfortunately the season was almost at an end.it has not aired in Australia since its first airing...much to a lot of peoples dismay.The comedy writing is absolutely brilliant and typically British too boot.being a huge fan of the British comedy scene since the days of the goon show,the goodies,not only but also,dave allen etc etc..I instantly feel in love with all the characters,but the favourite would have to Serge The Sealpup..He could have a place in modern politics if he just immigrated to America,especially with his firearm ability.in ending I would like to say I cant wait for this stuff to be a bit more available in the local DVD rental store so I can catch up on unseen episodes..Keep on laughing..
