Sealab 2021

The first Sealab 2021 episode I saw was titled 'Predator.' I saw it on its first run in September of 2001. The episode cracked me up. Cartoon Network finally stepped over a line or two in a great way. Sealab 2021 is fresh comedy that TV has needed. I am happy that more people are starting to see it now. From the ridiculous, yet lovable Capt. Murphy to the sadistic Sparks this show really keeps you entertained. Cartoon Network has been changing its time slot lately so be on the look out for it. Apparently it has been renewed for 13 more episodes. Unfortunately they havent been showing new episodes in the past month or so. Check this show out.

This is such a ridiculously funny short cartoon. I think it's better that it's not a full half-hour; the format it has now seems to fit better. You have to stay up real late to watch it, but if you're into faster-paced humor without those annoying laugh tracks, you will probably like this.

Part of Cartoon Networks Adult Swim Line up. It is the year 2021 and the members of the Sealab are crazy. In one episode, Debbie's biological clock goes off and she desperately searches for a suitable mate to father her child. Odd thing is part of the time she has a baby dolphin under her arm for no reason adding to the absurdity of the episode. In another episode a flesh eating alien infests the Sealab. But my favorite episode yet features the head of Sealab uses a bouey antenna to create a pirate radio station and becomes a shock jock. But through new laws, the FCC has the right to blow up pirate radio stations at will. The FCC officers hunt the ocean for the sealab cursing like sailors in the process(bleeped out of course). This is a great cheesy little cartoon that can get addictive.

"SeaLab 2021" is absolutely hilarious. It's easily the most screwed up show I've ever seen, and I'm completely addicted. Although they've only made 10 or so episodes, even watching repeats is better than almost anything on television. Every character, from Hesh screaming about sex to Marco (voiced by Erik Estrada, of all people!) showing off his muscles, is funny and unique. Best of all: the show has no plot whatsoever. Each episode is pure jokes- plot is just background. If you don't believe me, see the episode where the entire crew is talking about becoming robots as the SeaLab explodes. My favorite shows of all-time used to be "Simpsons" and "Clerks: The Animated Series," but now "SeaLab 2021" joins that elite group. I hope this show never stops production- hell, production must be cheap, since they use animation from the original, early '70s show. I'm a diehard fan, and I think everyone else on earth should be.

This show is just so insane, so over-the-top, so twisted and silly that it's just so funny. Not many people will get it, but those that do will more than likely love it.

My particular favourite episode is "Lost in Time", but the first 10 or so episodes are great.

Where else can you see a show where a shark on a motorcycle jumps over a pool of Fonzies? Unfortunately, the show was never the same once the man who brilliantly played Captain Murphy died, who never failed to deliver at least five laughs per episode.

The characters are so utterly ridiculous and their chemistry is great because of it.

If you want a laugh then check it out. One of the best things about it is that it's only around 10 minutes long.
