I watched it, it was terrible

It wasn't as bad as I expected.

/I had very low expectations.

Overrated movie, unnecessary show.

It was honestly the worst show I've ever seen. it's worse than Whitney and Chelsea combined.

It's an abortion.

How was your TV cartoon debut?

The worst day of my life, what do you think?

It will be replaced by the animated version of This Is Spinal Tap, which will be replaced by the animated version of The Big Lebowski, which will be replaced by the animated version of Office Space, which will be replaced by the animated version of The Princess Bride, which will be replaced by the animated version of Hairspray...

I liked it alright, glad they had all the original actors to provide the voices. Amusing, not funny.

This should have been on after the Teenwolf cartoon on Saturday morning 25 years ago.

The Archer lead-ins were better than anything I saw in an episode last night.

I like how they have the original cast from the movie. You know, because none of them could find any roles beyond bit parts while riding the success of its release.

oh really?

lol

i switched the channel after 15 seconds.

lame cartoon is lame.

sometimes...a dry well is just that.

Coelacanth: It was better than Allen Gregory.

Boy, that's a tough call there. The one thing they have in common is that neither is worth a second viewing. It reminded me of Bevis and Butthead, but worse then the new one(if possible).

samiam4200

2012-01-16 02:33:37 PM

Yeah, I watched it. I watched the whole thing. It was a horrible attempt at the original and I'm pretty sure no one will be watching the next episode (Except for the people who missed the first one). I doubt that even hardcore fans of the movie will not waste their time.

It's not like any of them were working at all.

gunther_bumpass: Hey Fox, where's Bob's Burgers you fat ignorant idiots?

it's coming back in March.

Coelacanth: It was better than Allen Gregory.

I didn't catch Napoleon Dynamite, but I was wondering this as well. Granted, that's a low bar to clear.

oldernell: It reminded me of Bevis and Butthead, but worse then the new one(if possible).

Really? I liked the new series a lot more than I thought I would.

With all the production money that went into the original movie... you'd think they could just do a live action series. The cartoon has to cost more to make than the movie right?

/I had very low expectations.

I've just thought a little less of you for having wanting to view that in the first place.
/I mean who watches cartoons??
Every once in a while someone posts one of those cartoon thingees on Fark, not often though

It was better than the movie. It still sucked donkey balls. Will not watch again.

The good news is that Archer starts this week, so... Napoleon what?

Pants full of macaroni!!

2012-01-16 02:47:23 PM

It was just as dumb and annoying as the movie.

meh. didn't watch.

2012-01-16 02:47:27 PM

Or it could be that millions of people walked out of the room after the football game was over and didn't change the channel like I did.

Came back as it was ending and saw 30 seconds. Horrible.

If the ads showcase the best of what that has to offer, I didn't even bother tuning in.
Fun fact: In the movie, Uncle Rico's wife that comes back at the end on the bike is Kip's character's wife in real life.
/nice job Kip

Much better than Alan Gregory and only slightly better than Bobs Burgers, both of those show suck out loud!

I like Bob's Burgers! It's low-brow quirky - but what do you expect from network television?
Maybe you haters should remove the broomsticks from your asses before watchin' the ol' boob-tube?

Mr. Chainsaw

2012-01-16 03:02:13 PM

Hated the movie, and watched this out of morbid curiosity. It did not change my mind. One thing, though that I found weird: Isn't the whole point of the movie that these are just weird, rural people with boring lives? So doesn't throwing in jetskis and cage fights kind of defeat the whole purpose?
