Took you guys long enough!

I caught this one night and was absolutely floored with laughter. It takes some serious effort to get me laughing on the outside rather than on the inside with the mild chuckles here and there but this had me pausing for breath at points after a lung emptying barrage of laughter. There is a great balance of shock value and pure humor and the creators truly know it's just not possible to take things to far when producing this breed of humor in cartoon form. In fact, it's the cartoon medium that allows them to go so far and surpass anything ever accomplished in live action humor.

I was disappointed that I hadn't been able to find the name or catch more episodes after that night I by chance watched it but was pleasantly surprised when I got home tonight to find it's been picked up as a series and the rest of the world won't miss out on what is truly a hilarious, way over the edge adult humor cartoon. For all the criticism I find myself dishing out to the wide world of entertainment, it's works such as this that serve as a potent source of redemption.
