Has anyone seen Drawn Together? This has to be one of the funniest cartoons I've ever seen. Reminds of intelligently witty Duckman.

Check out some of the videos here:

Warning, you may not want to be watching this at work. No nudity, but it pushes boundaries that's for sure.

There's more then one video of the show on the website, if you interested in seeing more.

It tries too hard to be offensive.

And there's a difference between making jokes that comment on racism and jokes that are just plain racist.

I think it's pretty fucking lousy. It's as if they took all the jokes that were never funny to begin with, reheated them, and slapped them in the show. It's not even clever.

I honestly don't see what's supposed to be funny about it. "ZOMG GUYS, THE PIG SAID 'POOP'!!!!1! THIS IS THE FUNNIERST THING EVAR!!1!11!!!"

There are some really funny parts here and there, but often it's just stupid.

I wonder how much of this show these people have actually seen? I own the first season, and I think it is fucking awesome. The world of reality TV is LONG over due for a satire of its stupidity. It's probably alot better on DVD where it is uncensored, I have never actually seen the show on television.

I don't get what shit (as in toilet) jokes and implying Indians are morons has to do with lampooning reality TV, but maybe thats just me.

Merely because something is satirical in nature doesn't stop it from being ridiculous/not funny/total shit.

When I first heard of this I was excited as the concept seemed really funny and novel. Too bad the show turned out to be such a huge dissapointment. Just a mess of "Lets see how much we can offend people" jokes that just are not funny for the most part.

Is it just me or does anyone else find Adam Carolla and anything he has a hand in painfully unfunny?

Im glad most people here have taste. I saw the first season of this on tv and it was pretty shit. rude and offensive, but not witty. and the parody is pretty dumb. It doesnt really do anything exciting to ridicule its source material.

Yeah that's it, Artie, we're all talking shit about a show we've never watched because...erm....well....I dunno, probably just to piss you off. Damn we're mean.

It has some good ideas but as a whole I'd have to call it broken as best. The episode where Captain Hero gives up his powers and goes Christopher Reeve was brilliant, but that's the only one from this season I truly enjoyed. It's a few giggles here and there, but nothing that warrants watching it every week.

I feel the same way about Reno 911. I thought the first season was pretty good, but this season has been a dissappointment. Too much reliance on the "Hey, this cop is gay" and "The blonde chick is a whore" jokes. Stop trying to offend and just be funny, something Comedy Central doesn't understand at the moment.
