To be honest, I really wanted to like this show or maybe even tolerate it. But Comedy Central's new cartoon, Fairview really insulted me. How am I insulted you may ask? Well isn't it obvious? It's not funny, the art style is strange and not in a good way, and the characters are bland, annoying and unlikable. Just watched the first episode of the show last night and I find it an absolute mess. Who would ever thought that it was a smart idea for Comedy Central to greenlight this? Fairview is trying so damn hard to be like South Park but it failed miserably. Unlike Fairview, South Park has talent, it has subtlety, it has charm and what does Fairview have? Nothing. This has got to be one of the worst cartoons Comedy Central has ever produced and I hope it gets canceled after one season. Let's just hope Jodie (a spin-off of MTV's Daria) airs on Comedy Central and see if that show will give us plenty of great laughs and charm...which I believe it will. I give Fairview a 2.1/10.
