Sanjay and Craig

This show is clearly underrated...and i understand why people think its to dirty... annoying and clealry much fart jokes...but i love i. It is so funny and so freaking annoying.

This review has been updated, after a few months I decided to lower my rating due to the overuse of gross out humor, this show is not terrible, but it wont be the next Spongebob.

Whenever Nick releases a new show, I at least try to watch it and see if it is any good, most shows nowadays are not as you already know. But surprisingly, I was fairly impressed when I saw the first episode of Sanjay and Craig.

The humor in the show seems to copy the Regular Show style but I don't really mind because unlike so many Nick shows on, it doesn't try too hard to be funny. Most jokes actually get you a few laughs and don't seem cheesy or timed. Yes their is gross out humor, the one downside to this show is that it relies too much on gross out humor. Trying to be a wanna be R&S, but back to the positives. Thurnop Van Orman is one of the shows producers, and I have always liked what he has worked on because he puts a surreal twist into everything.

The art style has a 90's Nick vibe to it with a touch of 1980's references throughout, not to mention they actually have something new in 2D for once, other than Korra, unlike the lazy, overdone, CGI atrocities they have on now. You may or may not know this but the character designs are from one of the character designers for Bobs Burgers. So it seems similar.

Voice acting is laid back and simple and actually has a diverse voice cast. The characters might seem a little on the cliché side though. A boy and his pet and they go on adventures, seen it like 100 times before. But overall I am liking the show so far, but after seeing what it would be like, I would'nt expect it to have a cult following like Adventure Time and Regular Show.

But as one reviewer said, don't let your nostalgia goggles get in the way of something new, you never know, you just might like it.

It's bizarre, weird, edgy, crude, and incredibly inappropriate. It's a children's cartoon that takes a big steaming dump all over media censorship while still staying just within the line of what can and cannot be aired on television.

It is a revolutionary work that has helped push the envelope beyond the realm of imagining.

Its content truly is disgusting, gross-out humor and the level of shock value and those moments when I think to myself, "What? What! WHAT!" in reaction to what I've just witnessed is what gives me cause to laugh out loud. Sanjay and Craig has often left me in tears because of how hard I've laughed at the show.

Admittedly, it isn't for everyone and I hold nothing against those who do not enjoy this sort of thing. But to those of you who feel compelled to insult its fans directly simply to express your opinion...Well, I just don't like you. Not one bit.

I simply can't believe that there's not even a 5 star rating for this show. I absolutely loved it, and I would class myself as a cartoon freak! I even got a custom made phone cover of it! What's not to love about this show? It's creative, fun, funny.. it reminds me of Spongebob/ Rocko's Modern Life slash something else that's awesome. Whoever made this show, can you please do something similar and add something else to appeal to a wider audience, just so it sticks.. but I was one happy viewer, just know that!

The premise isn't terribly original, boy, his talking pet, and their wild misadventures, but for people who enjoy surreal cartoons like Cow and Chicken, Ren and Stimpy, Chowder, and the Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack(the creator of which, Thurop Van Orman, is a producer on the show) it's a welcome addition. The show doesn't quite reach the same greatness of those shows, and scales back some of the absurdity, but manages to still be fairly entertaining.

The cast is fairly decent here, particular note being comedian Chris Hardwick, who plays the snake Craig, and the occasional visit from Arrested Development's Tony Hale as the strange neighbor Mister Noodman, who both breathe a lot of life into otherwise stale archetypes.

The episodes can be, at times, a little overly juvenile and simple, like witnessing a butt transplant, or when a blueberry farmer acts like a gibberish spewing idiot, but shines really well with the absurdist moments and some pretty great jokes.

Though it tries not to be as extreme as the shows that preceded it, like Flapjack and Ren and Stimpy, Sanjay and Craig does suffer from the gross close-ups that these cartoons tend to rely heavily on. It's a bit stale, and at times is just annoying, but doesn't diminish an otherwise fantastic cartoon show.

It's not perfect, it's not even terribly original, but there is some great talent on the show that deserves attention, as well as perhaps the unique situation of having an American cartoon show where the main character is a mixed-race Indian child.
