Tom Goes to the Mayor

This show is a show made out of paper. The basic outline is a loyal civilian, Tom Peters, has great ideas to help the city; however, whenever he presents the idea, the mayor makes it take a turn for the worst.The new episodes appear on the 10:30 adult swim slot, and I haven't missed one since the show started. Celebrities constantly have a guest appearance. I will admit though that a lot of people may not get the show's humor. The mayor and Tom make a unforgettable duo that will not be forgotten in years to come. The writer's for this show have a different set of mind frame that you won't want to miss. All in all this is a great, funny show that you will have to see for yourself at sometime.

I love this show in small doses.While it's very funny and just bizarre, I seem to be only able to watch three or four episodes before I fall asleep.The animation(if you can call it that) is extremely strange.They just use still pictures of people and then paint them blue and white.The people's mouths never move and somehow that just makes it funnier.I'm always amazed by the amount of guest stars this show had.Tim and Eric clearly had lots of connections in Hollywood even though they have never had any success.Even though I called this classic Tim and Eric, it's also classic Bob Odenkirk.He is in almost every episode(maybe all of them, I didn't really keep track) and he usually plays a different character each time.He's extremely funny and it's too bad most of his "fans" will never even know this existed.If you like to laugh, you should really watch this show.

This show is absolutely hilarious. It has a very unique animation style. There are a ton of celebrity appearances (mostly due to Bob Odenkirk's connections). The story lines are funny and completely out there, but the funniest part by far are the expressions and positions of the characters, the Mayor most of all. The charts that Tom uses in his presentations make no sense whatsoever, and if you have TiVO, you should pause the show and read the graphs. Adult Swim has renewed it for a second season, and I think that they realize just how good this show could get. When Aqua Teens came out, no one liked it, but now it's one of AS's most popular shows. I hope that the same happens with TGTTM.

Tom Goes To The Mayor is the worst Adult Swim, nay television as a whole, has to offer. Adult Swim should be ashamed to run this terrible excuse for entertainment alongside such greats as Aqua Teen Hunger Force and Family Guy. I pity anyone whose first exposure to Adult Swim is this show, they would have very low expectations of the network. To get truly great in anything there is a lot of experimentation involved. Through this you get the best and worst any given medium has to offer. Tom Goes To The Mayor is easily the worst animation comedy has to offer.

For shame Adult Swim, for shame.

Tom Goes to the Mayor finds its humor in the things in everyday life that aren't amusing unless you look. In real life getting something bronzed is not funny. In TGTTM the creators put enough of a twist on it to make it absurd and hilarious. A user comment prior to this one said that this show is trying to have dry humor but it doesn't work. Although there is some dry humor (Tom referring to a hobo infestation as a "bum rush"), this show gets its laughs at being ironic; making fun of normal and mundane this. I beginning to believe that all people who are aqua team and robot chicken fans and not TGTTM fans have ADD. TGTTM has all the same humor that other adult swim shows have but with actual substance and new material in between. Like Aqua Team, TGTTM has people throwing up and senseless violence. Like Robot Chicken, it has poop jokes (but higher class poop jokes such as "Hi, I'm Tom Peters, but you can call me poop.") I love this show because it has every kind of humor rolled up into one, you just have to be smart enough to notice it.
