dancing-bug's reviews

2 Stupid Dogs was (and is) considered a Ren & Stimpy rip-off, but if you watch Cartoon Network now you would see that the flat style of this show is being showed on two of Cartoon Network's most popular shows, Dexter's Lab and The Powerpuff Girls (Craig McCracken is art director for all 3 shows). In addition to what an earlier review said about Richard Pursel and John K. writing some episodes, Spumco cartoonist, Vince Waller also worked on some episodes. 2SD lasted until 1994 mainly because most homes didn't carry Cartoon Network and CN wasn't as popular in '93 and '94 as it is today.

This is a cult classic if I've ever seen one. However, there is no other cartoons like it. It's kinda like Space Ghost Coast to Coast, except the humor is more appealing to a wider audience. It features Brak, a brain damaged space pirate, Space Ghost, and Zorak. There is a bunch of songs on this show (the ones sung by Brak are my favorites) and the 3 talking about random stuff. It's kind of hard to explain, so you really have to watch the show. Too bad it's not on any more...

This has to be one of the weirdest TV shows in history. The show's humor varies from sacastic-cornball to a very dark, strange humor. Most of the time the episodes have no plot, they just, kinda add-lib. Once you watch it though, it kinda grows on you. I reccommend watching this if you like MST3K, Monty Python, or Cartoon Planet.
