The latest Harvey Birdman with the Blue Falcon was genius -- I don't want to get too spoilery, but it was very funny.

Sealab rules the fucking lot.

That Girl (thatgirl), Friday, 6 June 2003 00:03 (twenty years ago) link

Shit, after the Quinn-on-vacation-disco-bear episode, Sealab is my favorite show ever.

You are Jodene Sparks


You are Sealabs smart-ass communications expert. You position as radio operator is, however, advantageous. Whether in contact with your secret mountain stronghold, or selling organs on the black market, your plot for world domination is well upon its way. Perhaps the sickest mind on Sealab, there is no telling what devious plot you will be up to next.




What Sealab
2021 Character are You?

Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 11 August 2003 14:08 (twenty years ago) link

haha I like that the code they gave me on the site doesn't even work, I had to edit it twice already anyway to fix syntax errors then the picture don't work. It's kind of fitting.

YOU ARE FRYLOCK -- A large, hovering box of french
fries, Frylock is the voice of reason for the
Aqua Teens. He is very smart, owns a computer,
and is often exasperated by his imcompetent
roomates. He does the majority of the crime-
solving for the Hunger Force, and without him,
very little would be accomplished.

the sealab rerun that was on last night where they all talk about what knd of Robots they will become is incredible. It has the part where Dr. Quinn rips open his chest and shows a movie.

A Nairn (moretap), Monday, 11 August 2003 14:43 (twenty years ago) link

i wish i had Adult Swim but at least i managed to get loads of Space Ghost episodes on video CD thanks to the gift of e-Bay

stevem (blueski), Monday, 11 August 2003 14:48 (twenty years ago) link

Oh my god the robot one is incredible, it reminded me of my weekend actually, except no one did anything as goddamned cool as rip open their chest and show a movie. "With the strength of FIVE GORILLAS!"

Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 11 August 2003 14:51 (twenty years ago) link

That's so weird! Sparks looks AND acts exactly like my Dan. I am more like Captain Murphy, but I haven't taken the quiz yet to have it proven by science.

i think Home Movies is still tops for me, since I love Coach McGuirk, and i generally like any cartoon where all the characters have more than their own share of self-loathing.

Kingfish (Kingfish), Monday, 11 August 2003 15:15 (twenty years ago) link

This is so the only thing that brings joy to my Sunday nights, for serious.

Actually, you know what the best part of Adult Swim last night was? The Brak News Break. "White Stripes forever cos they ruuuuuule!!!"

Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 11 August 2003 16:34 (twenty years ago) link

didn't catch it, unfortunately. i don't have cable.

i should probably change that.

Kingfish (Kingfish), Monday, 11 August 2003 18:41 (twenty years ago) link

Yeah, but the only thing worth watching is Adult Swim so fuck it.

Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 11 August 2003 18:46 (twenty years ago) link

A DVD collection of all this stuff would intrigue me (before anyone complains, I should note that even if I did get cable here I couldn't get this, the new cable company that is the provider at my complex doesn't carry the Cartoon Network -- I've already seen a slew of homemade protest signs all around the various laundry rooms).

Sparks looks AND acts exactly like my Dan

So we are getting protected when he takes over the world, I trust.

YOU ARE CARL -- The Aqua Teen's fat, balding, lazy,
perverted neighbor. He enjoys waxing his car,
drinking beer, looking at pornography, and
hanging out at strip clubs. He doesn't have a
job, a family, or a purpose in life, other than
yelling at Master Shake for being in his pool
without his permission.

You are Quinn. The true brains of Sealab, 6
doctorate degrees doesn't keep you from getting
hurt often enough. However, your PhD in sex-
ology is well deserved.

YOU ARE MEATWAD -- A little ball of raw hamburger
meat, Meatwad is a friendly, optimistic, happy
little fellow. He is extremely dumb, however,
and often very gullible. He loves dancing,
playing with his homemade dolls, and is often
chased and injured by Master Shake. Does very
little for the Aqua Teens, but he has a good
heart.

OPO? I pick the episode of ATHF with David Cross as the nihilistic doll with the sparkly shoes. "Hey, hillbilly, why do you jiggle so much? Is it because deep inside, you know you're a fraud?"

Kenan Hebert (kenan), Monday, 11 August 2003 20:30 (twenty years ago) link

I'm Frylock and Murphy. Rock on.

Larcole (Nicole), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 02:45 (twenty years ago) link

Of course, it has been proven by science that I am Captain Murphy. I hope this now gives me an excuse to put on tribal paint and run around yelling "THERE CAN BE ONLY NONE!".

Larcole (Nicole), Tuesday, 12 August 2003 02:53 (twenty years ago) link

Doctor Weird holes himself up in a laboratory
on the South Jersey shore. He unwittingly
creates various mutations, monsters, and
machines that tend to destroy large areas of
the town and cause trouble for the Aqua Teens.
While he may sound like a maniacal madman, it

YOU ARE MASTER SHAKE -- A large, human-sized cup of ice cream, Master Shake is a lazy bum with no morals or values. He spends almost all of his life watching movies on TV or relaxing in his neighbor's pool. He enjoys torturing Meatwad, lying, cheating, and generally causing trouble. Liked by few, needed by none.

Brak's dad for community president (or whatever), the time shed, and the hams are all tremendous.

"That ... is a light switch ... OF TOTAL DEVASTATION!!!"

The Yorke/Bjork episode of SG is pretty top-notch. I'm a big fan of "Kentucky Nightmare," though, too.

"Sharks and bears ... nature's best friends!"

My favorite Sealab is the one with the time loop. It made me cry.

brian nemtusak (sanlazaro), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 05:40 (twenty years ago) link

Another vote for "Knifin' Around," the Space Ghost episode with Thom and Bjork. "Listen, everyone, I have a hit song about a knife, and I'm married." That one has me in pain by the end. "Oh no!"

"Kentucky Nightmare" is fantastic, though I've only seen it once. That film Space Ghost created is strangely compelling. Same run, the one with Busta Rhymes ("Flipmode"?) is completely insane. Especially the disco hospital near the end.

rgeary (rgeary), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 20:53 (twenty years ago) link

And oh my god the one with the Dr. Katz kid is astonishing. Moltar and Zorak's kidnapping video is tremendous. "Just don't touch my TV, OK, or you're ---king DEAD!"

rgeary (rgeary), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 20:56 (twenty years ago) link

SG: "Where?"

Zorak: "Hattiesburg."

Revived in honour of Bravo showing Adult Swim 'toons in the UK (every fucken night, people!).

My head says ATHF, but my heart says The Brak Show. The best bits of Brak are better than the best of ATHF but ATHF is more consistent. The episode of The Brak Show with the rap battle is superb, especially Thundercleese's rock-rap that references Conan The Barbarian. "Until I hear the lamentations of my enemies' women", had me in stitches.

I’m happy to see the Wham City folks more frequently but I feel either they have gotten less ambitious/ weird now that they relocated to LA or Adult Swim is not bankrolling anything as ambitious as the Cry of Mann,etc. and they are making do.

Watching clips of the more gruesome cartoons like King Star King, Superjail, JJ Villard's Fairy Tales and I've been really inspired by how gruesome and nasty they are (although in King Star King the mostly voicelessness of the sex workers, the bunny grinding a woman's face into the ground and Molestro was testing me a bit*) and I like that blink n' you'll miss it stuff and how often some of it flies in the face of the idea of a very fixed character model and doesn't worry about characters looking daft or ugly.

Was kind of pleased to see that Allison Schulnik and Hellen Jo are fans of Villard. I hadn't seen their work in a while and I think Schulnik is one of the best artists alive today.

*not surprising when I was checking out Villard and all those awesomely gross cartoonists on instagram that Johnny Ryan is friends with them all.
