The Cramp Twins

Don't know why I liked this show. Maybe because of the character Wayne Cramp. He reminds me of myself. Though he's a twin, I like that he looks nothing like his brother Lucien Cramp nor his family. I like Wayne Cramp is purple-looking. He's my favourite character. I hate the character Wendy Winkle who sadly has a huge crush on Wayne. I don't want them two together. Wayne gladly hates Wendy an awful lot. The tv series would've been better had Wendy had nothing to do with Wayne. Wayne is a boy that should be left alone. Wayne needs a girlfriend but not Joanne ;) He's a loner and has no friends apart from this Dirty Joe who you can't see for some reason. Why? It didn't matter, however. Looks like Wayne's only friend. I liked that Wayne has no friends, but it would've been better if he had. Wayne is cool and he "eats pain for breakfast" ;) His brother, Lucien, I like also and has friends though more would've been better. Tony needed to be tall. For some reason, he is short. I liked how their mother, Lucien and Wayne, is obsessed with being "clean". I like their father too who has a cool job as a Salesman selling soap products :) I only wished their family were rich, but not like the Winkles. Wayne Cramp needed a few things like tv in his room, a gaming console and satellite along with all this junk :) I like the junkyard where Wayne is usually at. I like the Swamp. How huge is it? Hmm... Are the Winkle family Swamp people? It's still unclear, but I think they are, and just Wendy Winkle has no idea that she is in fact "Swamp". I'm laughing at her, and "they" would too if she is a Swamp folk. She hates the Swamp. Wendy is butt ugly. Tony has a job in the sewers due to his stature, but it is dangerous. I still liked it. I saw every episode of "The Cramp Twins" on BBC and Cartoon Network (evening) Seasons 1 & 2. Unfortunately, there just wasn't enough episodes, and the show desperately needed Seasons 3 & 4. 100 episodes would've been perfect plus a movie at the end. I liked how each episode is like 10-15 minutes. In the movie (1 hrs), Wayne and Lucien have a girlfriend each, and they discover Wendy is a Swamp person. She cries and her family escape from Soap City like that. I don't want to see this ever again. All these episodes are stuck in my head. 6/10.

Although this is not the best of the best that cartoon network had to offer, it's definitely way better than people claim. In fact, it's pretty good! Yes, this is not as good as courage the cowrdy dog, samurai jack or powerpuff girl, but it' a very unique and chill show which manages to be weird but still remaining chill. The humor is different from most anything else, being pretty direct and rough, not trying to be too crazy or too complex either, but it's effective and enjoyable. The world is very unique as well and it remains grounded in reality, more so than any comedy that I've seen on cartoon network, which I find fascinating. It's basically a semi-realistic, semi-comedy show that I don't think you can find anywhere else.

The downside is that it tends to be a bit bland and simplistic. Anyway, this is one of the most underrated cartoon shows along side spaced out and maybe ozzy and drix, although not as good as the last two.

Why are some twins different? Watch The Cramp Twins and you'll see that not all twins are the same, Wayne and Lucien Cramp (Wayne is the blue kid, Lucien is the normal coloured kid!) Wayne is pure evil, terrorises his brother, lives on sugar loves collecting Junk. Lucien is eco-friendly, eats healthily and is a vegaterian, knits, and hangs around The Swamp with his best friend Tony Parsons, who by the way is REALLY tiny! Thier mother is a complete neat/clean freak and their father just wants to be a cowboy all the time. They all live in Soapcity. I first caught The Cramp Twins on Cartoon Network and just thought it was so sureal, it just so funny, and it helped that i like work of the main characters, Wayne is voiced by the fab Tom 'SpongeBob Squarepants' Kenny and Lucien by Kath Soucie who is Phil and Lil from 'Rugrats' and Rodney and Megan from the equally fab show 'Baby Blues', i have looked at a lot of web sites about voice actors, and no mention of Cramp Twins are on there, i'm assuming you don't get it in America, which is weird, but hopefully, some of you may have seen it.

When I originally saw the commercials for The Cramp Twins, I was curious, but not really excited. The animation looked rather disappointing (the black lines around each character and the bizzare colors don't really add to the effect), but I decided to give it a shot anyway. After just a few episodes, I realized that something: IT SUCKS! The characters are flatter than cardboard, and I'm not talking about the animation style. Lucien is a dork, Wayne is a psycho, their mom is a neat-freak to end all neat-freaks, and their father... well, he's just an idiot.

The whole show makes my stomach turn, there's nothing new or original about it, and watching Wayne and Lucien fight is a disappointment (Wayne calls him "girl-pants", which was funny for the first five minutes, but now it's just annoying). Their friends are even weirder; Lucien hangs out with a boy who is about a foot tall, and apparently from a tribe of Swamp People (as if that makes any sense).

This show is a living nightmare, and needs to be canceled as soon as possible.

The Cramp Twins is best described as a warped view on adolescent life. Lucien and Waye are at each others throats constantly yet still remain brothers at arms when the heat is on from other sources. Their mother is a clean freak, and dad is a cowboy nut, so no wonder they have issues! The show can drag at times, and is not always side splittingly funny, but the overall effect is wonderful. Speaking as a twin I can relate to the Cramp's various troubles. If nothing else the Cramp Twins will leave you giggling, and if you are up to the oddity it can leave you rolling on the floor.
