DVD Aqua Teen Hunger Force - Volume One
Another cracked animated series from the Cartoon Network's "Adult Swim" programming block, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Volume One's blend of superhero action and skewed humor should provide plenty of nourishment to fans of offbeat animation. The Aqua Teen Hunger Force are a squabbling trio of fast-food items (milkshake, fries, and a ball of hamburger meat) that have joined together to fight a host of monsters, aliens, and mad scientists in their native New Jersey. Fans of traditional cartoons may find the surreal plotlines and low-fi animation unmanageable, but viewers who enjoy other Adult Swim programming like Space Ghost Coast to Coast (series creators Chris Willis and Matt Maiellaro are veterans from that show) will find the Force's adventures side-splitting. The two-disc set, which features 16 episodes from the series' first two seasons, is supplemented by commentary by Willis and Maiellaro on three episodes, including an early version of "Rabbot." Disc 2 has a pair of Easter eggs that feature deleted scenes. --Paul Gaita
Review(s): DVD Aqua Teen Hunger Force - Volume One
This show is super-duper! =]
What could be better than a talking Wad of Meat, an ignorant lazy Shake, and a giant extra-large mcdonalds fryface, and to top it all up a white trash fat porn addict neighbor!... nothing! =D
I you hate this show, you suck.
I fell in love with this show about a year ago and it hasn't lost its luster one bit!! The humor is so offbeat and so rude, you can't help but laugh your nards off!! They're called the Aqua Teen Hunger Force, yet they're not teens, they don't go under water, and in only one episode (which was "Rabbot"), did they act like heroes. All they do is get themselves tangled in stupid situations and tick off their neighbor, Carl. Meatwad is very stupid, Master Shake is mean, and Frylock just puts up with them.
My favorite episodes:
Escape from Leprechaupolis
Mayhem of the Mooninites
MC P Pants
Dumber Days
Love Mummy
Dumber Dolls
A staple in modern adult animation, this mussn't be missed by anyone!!
"It's like a flea market threw up in there!"
ATHF is an adult cartoon, definitely not for the kiddies, and certainly not for everyone. The humor is ridiculous and often rude, but left me bent over in stitches with my cheeks soaked from tears of laughter. It's so offbeat that it's cool. With fast food as the main characters, a Shake (Master Shake), French Fries (Frylock), and a wad of hamburger (Meatwad) you should realize from the beginning that this is no ordinary cartoon. Meatwad is the dumb one, Frylock the smart one, and Shake the acerbic, sarcastic one. Aside from saving the world, they spend most of their time in their neighbor Carl's backyard, aboveground pool.
Neighbor Carl an uneducated, sloppy fat, hairy, Jersey-speaking guy who wears a sleeveless tank top, sweats, and flip-flops. Stir in monstrous foes such as leprechauns (Flargon and Dingle), a robot rabbit, a half-man/half-moth named Mothmosterman, Brownie Monsters, the Mooninites (Ignignot and Err - who look like 1980's video game squares), a diaper-wearing spider, a mummy, a doll with a bad attitude, and you have one bizarro cartoon.
Each show is prologued by a short scene of Dr. Weird (check out the outfit!) and his assistant Steve. The prologues have nothing to do with the show, but are hilarious. The humor is crude, rude, and off-color, but remains intelligent enough for some very unique laughs.
DISC ONE:
1) Rabbot - A giant robot rabbit terrorizes the town.
2) Escape From Leprechaupolis - Flargon and Dingle try to steal gold with their rainbow machine and a laptop.
3) Bus Of The Undead - Mothmonsterman is attracted to Shake's Light-Hat, Shake dumps brownies into Frylocks DNA machine along with Mothmonsterman's saliva and produces the Brownie Monsters. "I laid a thousand of my eggs in his esophagus. I need to propagate my species, and he's being a baby about it."
4) Mayhem Of The Mooninites - Ignignot and Err come to earth and use Meatwad to steal things for them.
5) Balloonenstein - Meatwad has static electricity powers and torments Shake with them.
6) Space Conflict From Beyond Pluto - Introducing the spiky Plutonians, a tall green one named Emory and a short yellow one with a German accent.
7) Ol'Drippy - Drippy the polite fungus monster arises from the mess left in the kitchen.
-- Extras include the original Rabbot, Commentaries, and some extra footage.
DISC TWO:
1) Revenge Of The Mooninites - Ignignot and Err are back.
2) MC Pee Pants - Meatwad's favorite rapper turns out to be an insane spider that wears a diaper.
3) Circus - Randy The Astonishing, a blobbish, trenchcoat-wearing worm-thing buys Meatwad from Shake to use in the circus.
4) Dumber Days - Meatwad uses his brain, which is removable.
5) Love Mummy - (My favorite episode!) The ATHF finds a mummy in their basement. (Curse! Curse! Hug! Hug! Lobster! Steak! Overdone! Bored! No, Not Cool!) The mummy curses them unless they feed him and spend money on him.
6) Dumber Dolls - (My second favorite!) Frylock buys Meatwad the Happy Time Harry Doll, who comes with a switchblade instead of a right hand. He wears red glitter shoes and boxer shorts, has a handful of unpaid bills, and vomits up booze.
7) Interfection - Shake gets on Frylock's computer and infects the entire house with pop-ups. (Those perpetrators will pay! I will redden their buttocks!)
8) Bad Replicant - We briefly see Dr. Weird's leopard briefs. The Plutonians are back. This time they create a clone of Shake to "De-terraform" earth.
9) PDA - Shake loses his PDA, and the blue alien Rolulox shows up with all kinds of modern devices.
Aqua Teen Hunger Force is from the Adult Swim program from Cartoon Network. If you like cartoons such as Family Guy, Futurama, South Park, or Invader Zim, them you should get a big kick out of ATHF. The only thing I do not like about this show is that the intro music is a little annoying, but the cartoon itself is well worth it. Enjoy!
The hilarious insanity gets kicked up a notch in these episodes of Aqua Teen Hunger Force, which are better than those found in the first volume. Throughout these episodes, crime solving (occasionally) fast food items Master Shake, Frylock, and Meatwad get into all sorts of hilarious hijinks, beginning with neighbor Carl getting a foreign mail order bride who is frightened out of her mind. Later on in these episodes, Meatwad gets a pet snake (can't see anything bad coming out of that...), Shake fashions himself a superhero and later becomes the host for a tenticled alien, Frylock attempts to defeat a brainy trivia buff, and MC Pee Pants (voiced by MC Chris, better known as Hesh from Sealab 2021) returns and is now known as "Sir Loin". There's more, but you'll have to see it to believe...

Those ferocious fast-food freedom fighters Meatwad, Frylock, and Master Shake return for more outrageous adventures in this double-disc set culled from their third season. Longtime fans of Aqua Teen Hunger Force know that the Teens rarely battle any actual evildoers--their chief nemesis, Dr. Weird, blows himself up before he can hatch any of his schemes--but the fellas still have plenty of trouble to deal with in these episodes, whether it's from an Atari 2600 that can contact the deceased ("Video Ouija"), the hellish creature known as MC Pee Pants, who returns here as an elderly gent in a retirement home ("Little Brittle"), a robot babysitter for Meatwad (voiced by Sarah Silverman in "Robositter"), or the perennially pesky Mooninites, who make two appearances here (in "Remooned"...

The Aqua Teen Hunger Force is back for their third season. Meet fast food heroes Master Shake, Meatwad, and Frylock. Who would have thought that such a lame premise could be so funny? With Meatwad's innocent stupidity, Frylock's dry wit, and Shake's caustic contempt, the jokes just keep rolling in. Completing the circle is next-door neighbor Carl, a disgusting, uneducated, sloppy fat, hairy, Jersey-speaking guy who wears a sleeveless tank top, sweats, and flip-flops.
New monsters in season three are Skeeter and D.P., the evil Broodwich (a sandwich), Turkatron, The Wisdom Cube, a floating mechanical clown head, and an onion-spider named Willie Nelson.
Sealab is a great parody of Hannah Barbara's Sealab 2020 using new voices and animations to turn a mundane show into somewhat of a underground classic. This show takes the crew of a underwater research station and puts them through ridiculous scenarios and is one of the funniest shows of this generation. If you aren't a fan of random comedy and animated humor then this show isn't for you and I wouldn't advise you to try it without at least a sample, but if you do like animated humor then purchase these DVD's now.

Of all the "re-imagining" wreaked upon the Hanna-Barbera animated catalog by Cartoon Network's Adult Swim programs, Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law is probably their most deliriously creative effort. The series revives second-string '60s avian hero Birdman, and via a combination of old clips and new animation, recasts him as a crusading lawyer (voiced by Gary Cole) who defends the rights of other cartoon characters. That Harvey is pitted in the courtroom against old supervillain foes, who have followed his lead and become prosecutors and judges, is one problem--but even more challenging are the pickles his fellow Hanna-Barbera creations find themselves in: Harvey must clear Fred Flintstone of organized crime charges ("The Dabba Don," perhaps the first season's...
