Anyone else watch this. It comes on at 11pm on Toon. Except for last weeks episode, i laugh so hard my side hurts every time. Christmas episode i had tears in my eyes.
I highly recommend it, if you havent seen it.

Only seen it once, was when Grandpa picked up a much younger gal and became her sugar daddy. 'course he didn't know she was a hookah.
Was pretty funny indeed.

Yeah that one was funny. If you can cath the Christmas episode or the Trial of Robert Kelly...i highly recommend those two.

It's very liberal and to be honest very anti Honky!! But, it's intelligently written and very...earthy for lack of a better word.

Gonna be hard to catch more episodes with my new schedule though.

The repeat it through the week, not sure the times, but they play the one on sunday over and a random episode too.
Yes Osg, it is the same as the comic strip...so clearly you wouldnt like it, as you cannot put aside your political views to enjoy a comedy. Starting to wish you could put people on /ignore on the forums.
Fandros hit it on the head, its very very intelligently written to reflect pop culture of today.

Hm...is there a conservative comedy? Can such things be?

If you're stuck in the mode of black/white, creative whimsy/logical thought and lib/cons then no there are no real comedy shows featuring heavy cons.
Even the likes of American Dad are poking fun at the man heh.
There are no black and whites, no hard lines so it's a hard question to answer Thor, and you know that ;P

YEa I have read the strip a number of times... I juust shake my head and all the "down with whitey" conotations. I will most certainly stay away from the show. Thanks for the warning.

It's not down with whitey...its anti-establishment at times, and pro-"black" if you had to classify that.
(I know that whole "black" things scares ya, scares most republicans)
Though majority of the time its just funny. I mean cause a kid feeling Santa owes him what he asked for has political overtones to it. Cause Santa=the man, and the kid wanting=lower class wanting welfare....i mean clearly thats what it means.

Yea now I know I really don't want to see it. Thanks again for the info/warnings. I have no use for whining and cry liberal talking points masked as a cartoon. What fun.

how is:
*R.Kelly getting arrested for peeing on a young girl
*A Man, raised in lower class getting invited to a upper class dinner party
*A kid hunting Santa down for his presents
*A man terrified of getting anal raped in prison
*A hooker posing as a normal girl
*A Rapper getting shot at a concert
Liberal?
Btw, those are the things that happened in the episodes so far.
Nm, just go watch the 700 Club, and masterbate to pictures of the great republicans of the past.

Seems low class to me. Typical. Sorry don;t believe in god so no 700 club for me. Not all "repukes" are "fundies". Ann Coutler now shes a repub hottie!

Osgiliath, you should really watch American dad. I'd bet you'd really relate to the main character.

Charlie Brown is a conservative comedy. Lucy represents the government, constantly setting him up to kick the goal and then pulling the ball away ... but like a good little drone he keeps trying every time.

Mallard Filmore is a somewhat conservative comedy.

I'm very much Republican and I think this show is hilarious. If you can't laugh about something annimated then theres something wrong with you.
Just watch it for what it is, a cartoon made for people to find humor in. Most of the time the little liberal boy is getting back handed by his older brother anyhow. lol Or constantly telling him to shut his mouth.
I also find American Dad to be hilarious. Loved the episode where the wife wants to become a real estate agent so he has the other lady kidnapped and steals her red jacket. Too funny.
