Eagleheart

Eagleheart was and is the silliest/most creative weird show to come out of adult swim!

Hilarious show! I've been a loyal fan of Chris Elliot ever since his days on Late Night with David Letterman and the cult favorite Get A Life. Yes I even saw Cabin Boy in the theater! Eagleheart is testimony that Chris Elliot still has it after all these years. I can't think of any other comic actor that's been as consistently funny as he has for nearly thirty years. Maybe it's the fact that he's never gotten famous enough to ruin his edge. I think that's a good thing.

Anyways, I think Eagleheart rules! Just the right blend of stupidity and genius...and gore....and weird sh*t that doesn't make any sense. Kudos to the producers and filmmakers for really nailing the look and style of typical "crime" shows, too. I've been recommending this to all my friends and I hope more people watch this so that more episodes get made.

Seasons 1-2 are fine, and very good, but you could easily skip them both and JUST watch Season 3. Start to finish it has to be one of the most bizarre and hilarious things I have ever witnessed.

How does one describe this show? Chris Monsanto is a throwback to the 1980s idiotic Chuck Norris action heroes. He is sexist, insensitive, dim-witted, arrogant and probably the most violent human ever put on earth. Fortunately for him, he lives in a world where few seem to notice what a psychotic Neanderthal this US Marshall is. Oh, he gets/kills the bad guy each episode and usually about a dozen other people, most of which were innocent bystanders. He has a captain that channels the spirit of Orson Welles and completely worthless. One of his partners is mentally retarded and completely worthless. His other partner is a female, who the caveman Monsanto views as completely worthless. Anybody familiar with Elliot knows his approach to comedy is, well, different. Call it anti-comedy if you will, but I laugh hard at every episode and am constantly amazed at how fresh the show is. Screwball like you have never seen and more bad catchphrases than you could ever imagine. I hope this show is around for a long time. Oh yeah, the other show I watch religiously? Comedy Bang Bang, which shares many of the same insane traits of Eagleheart.

Eagleheart is a comedy gem, and Chris Elliott is pure gold.... GOLD I SAY! I can't believe it took me this long to discover this show, but I'm so glad I finally did. Elliott (and others) is absolutely hilarious. The show is bizarre, over-the-top, and completely addictive. I can watch all three seasons on repeat and still laugh like it's the first time. Thank God for Amazon prime where I can binge watch it with my StackTV subscription (i'm not trying to plug either, it's just what I have available). If you love smart stupid humor and rad comedy, this show is something you will love. If you hate things that are awesome and hilarious, then this ain't for you. Enjoy!
