Big Mouth

This cartoon is seriously going to split opinion. Some will call it filth and try to convince you not to watch it. Those like myself will see it for what it is, an enormously funny cartoon specifically made for us adults. "Big Mouth" has a simple premise of a group of preteens entering that crazy time called puberty. It reminds us of our own escapades at that age and throws in some of the best and crazy adult comedy you've ever seen. Watch it!

I feel like the creators of Big Mouth dove right into my brain and heart to make this show. It is so incredibly gross in the most real way, and it totally stole my heart. I swear this is the best animated show ever made. It isn't lame, generally offensive comedy like shows like Family Guy. It's real comedy about our bodies and brains as teens that is so blunt and honest, and gross because that's how life is! I hope this show never ever ends. Also, I need to know who the ponytail killers is.

Writing a review based upon your own preferences of comedy isn't really being true or fair to a show. So unlike what other people have posted, I'll give it to you straight, this show is not for everyone. But, provided you have an open mind to comedy and are not easily offended it does offer a few laughs and a good little show to pass the time.

The first adult animated show I watched was "Fritz the Cat" in 1972, which was rated X. Now, fifty years later, "Big Mouth" would probably earn a similar rating due to its mature content. Despite this, I really enjoy the show. The storylines are engaging, and the characters are well-developed. The voice cast is exceptional, featuring some stars with clear influences from "Saturday Night Live." Although I'm only a few episodes in, the series seems to be on a promising track. As a lifelong fan of animation, I wish we had shows like this back in the '70s. It's refreshing to see such bold and creative content in animation today.

The first five minutes made me open my eyes in disbelief. I'm so happy I finally found a show that was brutally honest and funny to the bone(r). The first episode doesn't give up. There is just one ridiculously true situation of satire after an another. I really enjoy this show for its "in your face" honesty and brilliant conception. Finally, we have a show without barriers that is true to the core of one's inner fluidity.
