Paradise Police

I thoroughly enjoyed this outrageous program. I like it more than Brickleberry (which I could not really get into). I am upset they canceled it. I have never seen such a crude show before. The crudeness was funny because, while not clever or witty, it was just so outlandishly crude that it just ended up being funny, or at least very watchable. It was easy for me to turn my mind off, relax, eat some food and watch a few episodes at a time. I like that they ripped into some politicians. It was unintelligent but so over the line that it was delightfully entertaining. The reviews of Farzar seem considerably worse. Whereas this show either gets a 1/2 or 8/9 it seems like Farzar is just getting 2s and 3s with some 7s. If you like family guy and very crude humor you will possibly like this. Enjoy!

Other reviewers are mentioning this show as being very offensive, as a good or bad thing. To be honest, I know they did a lot of bathroom and sex jokes, but I don't remember it being extremely offensive or dark or anything.

Anyway, I love dark comedy. South Park is hilarious. I don't like it nearly as much any more, but Family Guy was quite funny. There's lots of other "offensive" shows that are funny. The problem with Paradise PD and Brickleberry is that those shows go dark but forget to make it funny. Just being dark isn't funny, even if it is "extreme". You have to actually be saying something or at least being funny about it.

This show just isn't funny. The voices aren't great, the animation is just OK, and the writing and humor are just total crap. It's not just bad, it's bad that's been done a million times before. Poop and fart and sex jokes you've heard in every school yard and on every street corner.

Furthermore, why does this show even exist? Brickleberry was a huge mistake and a gigantic flop that never should have been made into a series. So when that ended in an obvious trainwreck... Netflix decided to continue it? Why? Do the Brickleberry people have dirt on the Netflix board of directors or something?

Paradise PD is literally just a continuation of Brickleberry, only turning the park rangers into policemen and replacing the bear with a talking dog that is literally flat out lifted from Family Guy. I know because I watched every episode of both. Yes, I hated it, but much like a car accident, I simply couldn't look away. Hundreds of thousands of dollars were spent on a show that seems to have been written by a grade six creative writing class who were told "you can write as many sex and poop jokes as you want!"

Who knows what Netflix was thinking. Anyway, it doesn't matter. This show is destined to flop just like Brickleberry, and until it does, nobody has a gun to my head forcing me to watch it! But I might anyway, because... car crash.

If you liked Brickleberry you'll like it, if you didn't you won't.

I feel so sorry for Black and O'Guin; as a truly long-term fan of Brickleberry, it must have been soul-destroying for them to lose the show they loved and not be allowed to make more episodes.

So they did the next best thing and here's Paradise PD.

But the problem is: it's the same show, but the characters aren't nearly as endearing. They're all just a bit too weird and unlikeable.

The jokes are the same, but they fall flat without Ethel and Denzel to deliver them in their original Brickleberry setting. Even the walking dog, Bullet, is a pale imitation of Malloy.

I will watch all the episodes in homage to the creators, but this isn't Brickleberry 2, or even 1.1; it's a weaker show as the creators blew their load (creatively - don't be rude) on Brickleberry and this is a pale substitute.

Blame Comedy Central for not allowing further episodes to be made, OR for graciously allowing the creators to shift the show to Netflix. But that's another story for another day.

If you liked Brickleberry there's enough to enjoy here. For everyone else, it's a bit too weird and offensive and crude. It's definitely NOT for kids!!!

I forced myself to watch the first three episodes, just to see if it started to grow on me. It didn't.

I could just leave it at that, and ignore all the 10/10 reviews comparing this to Rick and Morty or Family Guy. But I can't. I like those shows too much.

Paradise PD is an uninspired, uncultured, juvenile attempt at shock humour. It doesn't give me anything to think about (unlike the good ones) and it sure doesn't make me laugh either.
