Uncle Grandpa

I am 48 and get this show. I think it confuses a lot of adults, which is weird because there is plenty for adults to like. Yeah, the name is a little off putting but I believe it's an either/or type name. He's either an uncle or a grandpa to kids. (I would think.) It's Mr. Gus by the way and not Glen the Dinosaur. This show is great in that it challenges children' views of reality and to not limit your imagination. I've seen that quite a few adults do not like this program, but it's not for you. I don't choose my children' shows as long as it's not an adult cartoon. Uncle Grandpa is one of their favorites that they DVR. (Is that a verb now?)

(Note: First actual review on site) Uncle Grandpa. A name that is so familiar to many Cartoon Network viewers. A show that utilizes surreal humour for laughs. Why does it get so much hate? People have been saying that the show is bad and it isn't such a gem. But, I would like to give insight as to why people will like UG. First, comedy. This is where I feel that the show is average, because although some people might like it, the humour is really hit or miss for me. I think that the episodes' and thus the show's strongest points are its good messages. Each episode (after Season 1) always leaves a good taste in my mouth due to its viewpoint on society and its surprisingly good (in my opinion) social commentary. Speaking of Season 1, this is where the episodes were abysmal, and that the characters were nothing but jerks and stereotypes. Which leads to my fourth point, that people really should stop hating on it, all because they watched S1E1 'Belly Bros' which most UG fans I think would agree is not a very fleshed out episode. But I feel personally that UG has come a long way. So any future people who watch uncle grandpa on your own terms, watch at least Season 2 or 3. Season 1 episodes do not feel well thought out and are half baked. Thus, I give UG a 7/10 for being weird yet relatable and improving over the course of 4-ish years.

Hey Guys RegularShow1 here and today I'm reviewing a show that been on Cartoon Network for almost 2 years called "Uncle Grandpa". This show is OK I known a lot of people hate this show because it weird . The show is also created by Pete Browngardt who also created "Secret Mountain Fort Awesome". The show is about a magical man named "Uncle Grandpa" who is everybody's Uncle and Grandpa. The other characters are "Pizza Steve" who is a talking pizza slice. Then their "Mr. Gus" who is a fire breathing green dinosaur who is the voice of reason. The show premiered on Monday, September 2,2013. Anyway I think "Uncle Grandpa" is OK show but it's not as good "Adventure Time" and "Regular Show" but it's better then "The Problem Solverz" which that show sucks. Anyway I'm giving "Uncle Grandpa" a 8 out 10 Stars. Anyway guys I'm RegularShow1 and have a Nice Day. BYE.

When I saw this show on a commercial back in summer 2013, I had high hopes for it...when it was released, it was bad. BUT, the show has gotten much better. People shouldn't look for the bad episodes of a series, they should look for the good ones, and this show has a lot of both. I really didn't like Belly Bros. too much, but I really liked the internet troll episode.

So, is the show perfect? Far from it.

Is it good or at least worth it? Absolutely. At least see some episodes of the show before you decide to base your opinion based off of all the hate the show gets.

I understand how so many people find Uncle Grandpa hard to watch or find it too trippy and hallucinogenic to stomach. But if you know the history of animation and enjoy surrealism, Uncle Grandpa is a BLAST!

Golden Age animator Tex Avery once said, "If you can do it in real life, it isn't animation." Uncle Grandpa embraces that philosophy and runs with it. Every animation gimmick you've ever seen appears at one time or another. Stuff out of the frame (including body parts) cease to exist, perspective gags galore, selective gravity, photo cut-outs, sight gags, visual puns, internet memes, breaking the 4th wall... Don't even try to keep a list, there are too many.

My only complaint about Uncle Grandpa is that sometimes it's a little too NORMAL. I can get normalcy any day without turning on the TV.
