Ugly Americans

It's such a shame that Comedy Central basically let this show die, since it had an interesting setting full of potential.

It could be have a fascinating, horror-themed counterpart of Futurama, with the kind of twisted humor that wouldn't have a place in your average animated sitcom.

And honestly, it seems Comedy Central has no real interest in animation (Besides South Park) focusing instead in dreadful and extremely low-quality series that are merely vulgar and not amusing at all.

Ever since the days of The Chapelle Show there has not been a show worthy enough to follow the great South Park, well for me "Ugly Americans" has pulled it off. The animation feels like a Sunday comic strip, but it works extremely well for the mood and tone of this comedy. In every scene of the show the animation will put a very vivid and humorous random character in the background just to add to the mood. The characters, "Mark Lilly, Randal, Grimes, Callie, Leonard the Wizard, and Twayne" all work very well together. The humor is very situational and crude. Some of the parallels the creators make between the setting in the show and real life events (such as the Twilight fad and Jersey Shores) are just hilarious. The relationship between Mark the social worker and his class of outcasts or monsters is just memorable and amazing. This show will make you want to write to Comedy Central and demand more episodes before they trash it like they do everything else.

I LOVE ugly Americans LOVE LOVE LOVE IT SOOO MUCH. I wish there were more episodes. Who else has seen matches that big? It is a TV show that I recently added to my account and I can't wait to get the third season. I think it's good. Even if it needs a time traveling episode to be on TV again w/e. Hoping for more.

Being a New Yorker by birth and a hilariously twisted bastard by nature, I see a bit of myself in all these characters. It'd be a shame if Comedy Central passed on this one before giving it a chance to expand its viewer-ship. This ain't no dry-ass Demetri or Sarah Silverman. Come on now folks! Where else can you find a government bureaucracy run by a demon and staffed by a milquetoast human, a drunken wizard, a smoking-hot, horned demoness and other monstrous, archetypal miscreants. This program ranks up there with South Park and Boondocks with its originality and bizarre and stitch-busting dark humor. It's not for everyone, especially if you're too easily offended by religious/satanic references. For the rest of us grown-ups, there's Ugly Americans.

I didn't catch Ugly Americans the day they went Air, but I was happy when I found out about them. Just to be clear at the very beginning: This show isn't for everyone.

Mixing up humans, demons, naked brains and what not may sometimes lead to stupidity, but this show makes it lead to the hilarity. Every episodes brings something new, either sick as hell or little less. It's refreshing to actually see a show which doesn't try too damn hard to be funny. Ugly Americans is simple: it has no rounding plot which will blow your freekin' mind, but it has that simplicity that's required for show to be good. Sometimes you won't even catch a sense out of things but still you'll laugh more than every minute. Many of my friends called this show "Stupid, immature, unfunny and insulting" - I can honestly say that, to the most people, it is. But this show isn't really made for "world-wide-knowing". Is it stupid? Yes. Isn't immature? Yes. Is it unfunny? No. Is it insulting? Hell yes.

Still, it depresses me to know that people are so tight in their minds that they can't comprehend simplicity of what this show brings. It's a simple story of billion different races living in the same world, trying to survive on their own ways. Centering a human around it just brings out our nature: we have to be in the center of all things. Mixture of amazingly portrayed characters and that subtle humor which sometimes you expect and sometimes you don't, creates an amazingly funny show which, yet again, is NOT for everyone.

Keep your horns up and your T-shirts on, 'cause it's gonna get hot.
