Vecinos infernales

So far the first three episodes have been enjoyable. Granted it is not the best show ever, but the characters have potential and it definitely has its worthwhile moments. Unlike the only other review so far, I actually prefer this to Family Guy. But I also prefer the Simpsons and American Dad over FG, I dunno maybe I am just too old for fart, puke and poop jokes. I really enjoy Tina and her lush-ness, Balthazar's dad isn't bad either by way of funny randomness. I could do without the dog-golf, but despite my love of dogs and hatred of anything that even resembles animal abuse, I still enjoyed the episode, and that has to count for something. Although I will forever miss King of the Hill, and Dale is by far the best character ever created. Throw in Balthazar's bolo tie and it adds up to a good Monday night.

I really wanted to like this show. The previews looked as though it could have been genuinely funny, a clever mashup of traditional family sitcom clichés and "demons on earth" craziness. Sadly, after catching an episode or two, I have to report that this is not the case. The commercials boast that NFH is produced by the studio that brought you Family Guy. However, when the similarities between the two shows are so glaring, it may not be a great idea to point that out. If you've seen one episode of Family Guy, you know who these characters are supposed to be: fat, stupid "relatable" dad; hot, sometimes-caring-and-sometimes-amoral mom; self-centered teen daughter; younger-version-of-dad son; talking dog; "wacky", flamboyantly gay and inexplicably British-accented final family member. Wow, they're all here! Even cast member Patton Oswalt, who's normally great, sounds like he's channeling Family Guy's Mr. Herbert when voicing family mutt Pazuzu. (Not that Family Guy isn't equally guilty of recycling sitcom tropes, but not usually this blatantly.) Unfortunately, the jokes and the supporting cast, which often save Family Guy from mediocrity, are not nearly as strong and produce few laughs. If there's one saving grace of the show, it's the animation, which is better than the average cartoon fare and more textured and nuanced than the "McFarlane House Style" (which I actually love, but that's not the point.) If anything, the decent animation serves to remind us of the disappointment of the other aspects of the show, and makes us wish someone took the same care and effort writing the comedy contained within. Neighbors from Hell is anything but groundbreaking, and only mildly and sporadically entertaining.

wow, seriously ... what the hell were they thinking to actually put this disgrace of comedy on tbs. tbs... and their catchphrase is "very funny"? did they take stupid pills or something cause for one thing the show serves no purpose, none of the jokes are funny and what is their audience .. i mean really ? like it seemed like a show kinda of like family guy or it was supposed to be . they messed up real bad with this one .. i sat through about 5 minutes and it just bored me to death... if you want an audience or at least some viewers for this crap (TBS) then rewrite it or at least watch it before you broadcast it. because i mean i know we are not paying to watch this like a theatrical movie or anything but we are wasting precious time , when we could be watching something more worth while. i remember seeing it advertised and thinking "ehh maybe it's worth a shot to watch this.." i must have been on something serious to say that. so that is my message to either TBS or just networks and the writers of the show. either come up with something that will at least make people laugh or please take the show off so i don't have to suffer seeing it advertised when watching FAMILY GUY on TBS .

i honesty think if watching something this funny made u lose IQ points pg then u have a problem . if it were trying to be serious i could see your review but u are more full of bull than a bull. The show itself was hilarious and it really showed how deplorable human kind has become when their evil surprises and sickens the new demon neighbors. I think its personally a great take on the sickness of mankind. The voice work is excellent in my opinion it should have gotten at least a second season. So if u like to laugh and u like raunchy comedy this is a good find i say watch it and laugh out loud.... though it is just my opinion and u should make your own.

As soon as it started and heard the opening dialogue, I got a bad feeling. Not much of what happened the beginning of the show grasped my interest, and up to the end I realized, it never did. I actually guessed the torture scene with Britney Spear's "I did it Again" song. It gave me chills, to predict such a lame attempt at mocking someone. Last time I viewed a reference to someone being tortured to Britney Spears music was YEARS ago, where kids voicing a flash animated show did the EXACT same thing this show did. "How could it be?" ... I asked myself in disbelief.

I watched the whole thing. I always give shows a chance, especially when 2 people in it I am a fan of(specifically Kurtwood Smith and Patton Oswalt). But, it didn't help. I admit I uttered laughter at ONE line Kurtwood Smith's character said at ONE point. And the rest was just terrible. Too slow, not interesting, and lame references back and forth. I have never sat trough a show and feel shame/embarrassment just for watching it. This was me most of the show(confused facial expression) --> 0-o' . Maybe it's just the 1st episode that completely lacks interesting characters, dialogue, story, fails landing jokes and in more than one instance, is highly predictable. That said, I believe my last sentence is me being overly generous and optimistic.

This show sucked, and it was amazing how much so it did.
