This cartoon (a weirdly hilarious fake-teen-drama about cloned historical figures like Abe Lincoln, Cleopatra, JFK, etc.) is "off da hook". It's been playing in Canada for a couple of months and is making its MTV debut around now. It's approaching the quotability factor of (gasp) Family Guy! This week's episode was a rock opera about the kids getting high on raisins, with guest star Jack Black.
I've really been looking forward to this show. I believe it may be the first time I've said that about a show on MTV in ages.
Saw half of the show last night and it was hilarious verging on brilliant. Sample highlight: The teen-age party-animal Gandhi clone forwards the teen-hotline to his cell phone so he can go to the kegger. Then he plays the calls on speaker phone for the crowd. "Hey, I'm anti-violence, not anti-comedy." Abe Lincoln as the sensitive gawky indie kid with the weird facial hair is also a great idea.
Whoa! That's a big step you're takin there. I mean, who knows, maybe you're right, but still gotta let the rest of us watch it before you can make a bold statement like that. Damn I miss Family Guy.
