Planeta Sheen

Planet Sheen is the greatest thing since Spy Kids 2: Islands of Lost Dreams. This show instantly cured my stage 6 clinical depression and upon viewing this I instantly gained 70 IQ points and the ability to levitate. My favorite character is obviously Sheen, because his entire character arc is actually an amazing metaphor for our society as a whole. In fact when he lifted in the rocket in the first that was a metaphor for Noah's Ark. Clearly this masterpiece puts the likes of The Titanic and Garfield, A Tale of Two Kitties to absolute shame, my family tried to restrain me from watching this show for the 278th time in a row and attempted to tell me to go get a job but I couldn't because of the fact that Planet Sheen is the greatest television program in the history of mankind and I would probably lose all will to live if someone were to take me away.

I was about 22 in a bar on a Friday evening and caught the children's program, Planet Sheen, airing on Nickelodeon. I sat at the bar and just mindlessly watched it thinking nothing of the antics Sheen was up to on his planet, but I soon realized the dark message that was hidden within the creases of the show. The whole complex concept of Sheen possessing his own planet symbolizes the desires of mankind, to obtain total dominance of the world. Sheen is ranked top on the social hierarchy of this planets society, and uses his knowledge of earth to trick the inhabitants to thinking he is a god. Here is where the show reaches dark territory, revealing how the white male can manipulate impoverished countries into believing that they are the smartest beings when in reality they are just flawed individuals, no common than the ordinary man. We can see more of Sheen's incompetence by the locals he hangs around. The green slug-like alien Doppy, presumably to be a depiction of Sheen's companion Karl Wheezer, reveals the truth that Sheen is still a child, not experienced enough to rule over an alien race. The next day I had to put my daughter down due to a terminal 8 tumor from birth. I didn't tell her that, I couldn't break her delicate heart. Holding her hand on the bed she leaned over and looked me in the eye asking, "Where do butterflies go during the winter?" Trying not to cry I said, "they go home, they go home."

I used to watch Planet Sheen, I used to like it. But now I hate it, why? Because nobody asked Sheen to get his own spin-off series, Sheen become very annoying when he is the main protagonist in his own show, the variety of this cartoon may be colorful, but it is also very ugly. Oh and did I mention that there is an alien version of Carl in this one. (At least we get to see Carl in one episode) Planet Sheen is an awful spin-off from Jimmy Neturon and thank god Nickelodeon canceled it after one season. I give Planet Sheen a 2.3/10

Planet Sheen has got to be one of the worst shows from Nickelodeon since October 2nd 2010, this show ruined The Adventures Of Jimmy Neutron Boy Genious which is way better than this. Sheen becomes a very annoying character in the show and he was being a dumbass for pressing a button from a rocket that leads him to another planet. Thank god this show got cancelled in February 15th from 2013.

Planet Sheen is not a good show. The main character is obnoxious, the plots are nonsensical in a bad way, and the show is physically and emotionally draining to watch.

Which is why it may surprise you that Planet Sheen gets my highest recommendations.

You might've heard someone describe something as being like a car crash, where it's terrible, but you can't look away. Planet Sheen isn't like a car crash. It's like a traffic jam where every car is still moving seventy miles an hour. No matter how assaulting it may be to the ears, eyes, and brain, as soon as you hop in, you just gotta see all fifty episodes. (Twenty-six twenty-two minute blocks, most are two segments, aside from the first and last episodes which are both specials.) Everything about this show is so bizarre, but in such a warped way that nothing else could give you the exact same experience. I'm not one of those people who goes "This must've been made on drugs!" when anything shows a slimmer of creativity, but I am legitimately not sure how humans could've made this.

One of my friends suggested it was God trying to communicate with us, and we couldn't understand his message, and I am slightly convinced that may be true.

Planet Sheen does have a few legitimate merits, sure, a couple of characters, particularly the main villains, are at least moderately entertaining, and for the standards of CG, the animation is pretty expressive, if not a smidge too bright. But if you're watching Planet Sheen for Dorkus and Pinter, you're watching it for all the wrong reasons. If you can find the time, I recommend you put on this show, and watch it with a friend, because it is absolutely nuts. If you aren't willing to do the whole show, however, I at least recommend "Torzilla," "ExpreSheenism," "Washing My Sheen," "Banana Quest," and "Gotta Go" for the true experience of it all. If my memory isn't bugged, I think "To Chill a Mocking Blurg" and "Stuck in the Riddle with You" were maybe the only episodes with an actual slimmer of quality, but that's a pretty strong "maybe."

I'd probably give this show a 3/10 on its own standards, but I gotta throw on at least one star for the experience it is. It's bad, yeah, but it's memorably bad.
