Super funny show! My husband has made us watch it three times already lol, can't wait for another episode!
This was actually funny, unlike a large portion of the shows from that block during the last few years.
More bizarre cartoons like this and less Tim and Eric garbage, please.

Following the production of the "Hellbenders" pilot and the brief history of Sleepy Cabin, its great to finally see some of the best internet funny bois get their vision on TV. It fully retains the spontaneity of Zach and Michael's unique internet animation styles and wastes no time at all with the jokes. The structure of the 12-min short is split into 2 plots which are equally fascinating and bizarre but not in the way a lot of "edgy" or subversive adult animated shows tend to be. The looseness of the drawing style helps the craziness never seem like its on rails, it truly feels like you're in the mind of 2 nutbag internet artists and I love it.
Mike Stoklasa's performance will be one for the history books.

When i first saw the poster of that show, immediately in my head was like: great another adult swim sh💩y show incoming.
But then after watching the whole 1st episode i actually wanted to see another. And after watching the entire season i rewatched it.
The show has unique artstyle, characters, and story. The jokes are surprisingly good. They are not trying hard to throw every possible edgy joke they can think in our faces. Some character desgins look ridiculous and bizzare and they were funny and i wasnt disgusted by it, for example mr. Frog who looks like it was drawned by pre-schooler but at same time looks good and its original which i can say for the artstyle of this show.
I hope this show gets season 2. :)

An amazing piece of animation that highlights the philosophical absurdities of life in the style of the great French philosopher Albert Camus.
The crude amateur animation is actually a veiled commentary on society's crude obsession with transient pleasures which we oftentimes define to be the goals of our life and not simply a passing fad.
Finally, the voice performance of legendary actor Mike Stoklasa blew me over. He has channeled the persona of his iconic creation, the fictional film critic Mr. Plinkett, into the character of Desmond and the result just screams perfection. That deep sagacious voice truly resonates with the absurdist notions of life as projected by this cartoon.
I am interested in more future episodes and I really hope they bring Mr. Stoklasa back for more side cameos.
