Ugly Americans

This show is great and funnier that almost all adult animated comedies these days (2021). All the characters are great. The voice acting is solid. The stories are mostly great and interesting. The show does have a drawback. While there are very few sex scenes and those are brief and there is no nudity, the show (ecspecially in season 1) focuses way too much on sex/sexual themes and that aspect gets vulgar and redundant. In this overemphasis they also push some jokes too far. If they replaced that content i would love to see many more seasons sad this show got canned.

I don't usually write reviews so bare with me.

My first impression from the ads was that this show would be another forgettable, slightly amusing animation that would die out after a season or two. Well, at least I was wrong on the first two counts and hopefully wrong on the last.

This show is unique and refreshing with an animation style similar to the short lived Adult Swim show Superjail. The pacing is fast and fun and it never lets up on the jokes.

Another aspect of this show that I really appreciate is the crafting of an interesting and expansive world all of it's own. The locations are all very different from one another and with their own 'charming' attributes. In the pilot episode we are introduced to Hell which has some very interesting stores.

The characters are widely varied in both personality and appearance and it just adds to the enjoyment. From the pretty average main character Mark's demon spawn boss/girlfriend Callie to his zombie roommate Randall to his wizard co-worker Leonard at the Department of Integration, Ugly Americans has plenty of interesting characters to keep you laughing.

All in all this show, despite having monsters and creatures, is basically a mirror of our own. It pokes fun at all kinds of situations in everyday life in a more grounded way than I thought possible in a show of this kind.

Ugly Americans has had a promising start, offering plenty of laughs and interesting characters to have me waiting in anticipation for new episodes. Check it out, people. You won't be disappointed.

Really enjoyed season 1, did not like season 2 as much but there was a lot of potential with this.

Pity, lets hope someone can remake this one day or continue it.

Season 1 = 9 Season 2 = 6

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.
