Sunjay e Craig

This review has been updated, after a few months I decided to lower my rating due to the overuse of gross out humor, this show is not terrible, but it wont be the next Spongebob.

Whenever Nick releases a new show, I at least try to watch it and see if it is any good, most shows nowadays are not as you already know. But surprisingly, I was fairly impressed when I saw the first episode of Sanjay and Craig.

The humor in the show seems to copy the Regular Show style but I don't really mind because unlike so many Nick shows on, it doesn't try too hard to be funny. Most jokes actually get you a few laughs and don't seem cheesy or timed. Yes their is gross out humor, the one downside to this show is that it relies too much on gross out humor. Trying to be a wanna be R&S, but back to the positives. Thurnop Van Orman is one of the shows producers, and I have always liked what he has worked on because he puts a surreal twist into everything.

The art style has a 90's Nick vibe to it with a touch of 1980's references throughout, not to mention they actually have something new in 2D for once, other than Korra, unlike the lazy, overdone, CGI atrocities they have on now. You may or may not know this but the character designs are from one of the character designers for Bobs Burgers. So it seems similar.

Voice acting is laid back and simple and actually has a diverse voice cast. The characters might seem a little on the cliché side though. A boy and his pet and they go on adventures, seen it like 100 times before. But overall I am liking the show so far, but after seeing what it would be like, I would'nt expect it to have a cult following like Adventure Time and Regular Show.

But as one reviewer said, don't let your nostalgia goggles get in the way of something new, you never know, you just might like it.

I watched this show while babysitting an 8 and an 11 year old and we loved it and laughed so so hard. It reminded me, the so-called grown up, of Ren & Stimpy, with its gross-out humor and absurdity, but at heart it's a show about an average, awkward kid with his best friend. The children loved it because it had all the dirty, hilarious, taboo stuff their parents would not approve of, which of course makes it completely fascinating and funny. We watched 20 minutes of kids vomiting and eating gross stuff and it was glorious. The negative reviews on here have forgotten what it's like to be a kid, when good clean fun is the equivalent of boring. There are enough squeaky clean shows about freakishly perfect, beautiful and talented children in extraordinary settings. There should be room for a show about little kids doing what they do best: goofing around and being disgusting, imaginative, awesome, little weirdos like a barf-inducing, kids version of Calvin and Hobbes.

It's bizarre, weird, edgy, crude, and incredibly inappropriate. It's a children's cartoon that takes a big steaming dump all over media censorship while still staying just within the line of what can and cannot be aired on television.

It is a revolutionary work that has helped push the envelope beyond the realm of imagining.

Its content truly is disgusting, gross-out humor and the level of shock value and those moments when I think to myself, "What? What! WHAT!" in reaction to what I've just witnessed is what gives me cause to laugh out loud. Sanjay and Craig has often left me in tears because of how hard I've laughed at the show.

Admittedly, it isn't for everyone and I hold nothing against those who do not enjoy this sort of thing. But to those of you who feel compelled to insult its fans directly simply to express your opinion...Well, I just don't like you. Not one bit.

Why is everybody looking down on it just because of the excessive gross out humour? There's more to this show than fart jokes.

Speaking on behalf of a fellow user on Tumblr, this show has an Indian protagonist, but really unlike Indian stereotypes you see on other shows; Sanjay is your average preteen who has a pet he loves, and with a fetish for junk food and/or video games.

Second, there are episodes which zoom in on his relationship with Craig (e.g. Chill Bill, Cuddle Buddy). It's what some best friends go through too. They do face adversities that endanger their brotherhood but they always conquer it in the end. Even the episodes that don't focus on such an issue do have their moments (e.g. Too Tuff to Watch, Hot Sauce Boss, Street Dogg).

P.s. this show has not 1, not 2, but 3 creators - so appreciate the effort that goes into all 3 of them trying to agree on the same ideas.

On the minus side the animation is terrible and the art style even ripped of Regular Show.

I simply can't believe that there's not even a 5 star rating for this show. I absolutely loved it, and I would class myself as a cartoon freak! I even got a custom made phone cover of it! What's not to love about this show? It's creative, fun, funny.. it reminds me of Spongebob/ Rocko's Modern Life slash something else that's awesome. Whoever made this show, can you please do something similar and add something else to appeal to a wider audience, just so it sticks.. but I was one happy viewer, just know that!
