Good start, but then it gets ruined
if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
View MoreThis is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
View MoreI'm 18 now, but 2 years ago is a lot of time to learn about sex, racism, fart jokes, and rape jokes (not to be taken lightly). As I got older, my knowledge of these topics grew. Now that I'm an adult, Drawn Together is much funnier than when I watched it 2 years ago. Most of the jokes are quite vulgar, which is why its for mature audience. Nowadays, I enjoy and appreciate the huge amount of sex jokes (my favorite), along with Captain Hero's tendency to-umm, lets just say he's almost the anti-version of Superman with the strength, ability to fly, X-ray vision. In one or two episodes, he uses a gun instead of brute strength. I know, stupid huh.In every episode somebody is brutally damaged or most of the time dead for comical purposes. It also explains why I said that it was vulgar. This show is not for the faint of heart, as you'll mostly be covering your eyes in disgust or shock. It reminds me of Bruno, only the viewer is the victim. All of the roommates in Drawn Together are spoofs of TV shows like Spongebob, Pokemon, Betty Boop, Superman, etc.Overall, this show is pretty good, but I recommend you wait till your more knowledgeable or at the age of 18.
View MoreDrawn Together. Essentially (and supposedly) the first ever reality show that ultimately spoofs all the goofy "reality" shows out there by putting an interesting twist on things, I.E. presenting the show as a cartoon, containing every possible cartoon stereotype you can think of while injecting as many pop culture references, gross-out humor, graphic violence and sexuality as possible. Sounds like the oh-so-common grand recipe for another hilarious (albeit South Park/Family Guy ripoff) animated spoof on society, right? Wrong. And I'll tell you why.Normally, Drawn Together most likely would have easily lived up to all the hype it received prior to its official televised airing, with the previews showcasing all the typical satirical humor and content these types of shows carry, and giving the viewer a brief falsified glimpse of what was supposedly to come and creating the illusion that this show might actually be considered "humorous" especially considering the hefty amounts of shock-value Drawn Together relies on. Unfortunately, even if the previews and teasers did in fact convince a considerable audience to tune in to view the pilot episode, I seriously doubt that even half of the original viewing audience bothered to tune in to view any subsequent episodes, or even ever watch the show again period, for that matter. Why you ask? Well, for one thing, if you're reading this and asking that question legitimately, in good conscious I would have to assume that you've never actually seen the show. And if you are a fan, forgive me for my personal opinions, but in all honesty I for one simply cannot fathom how anyone would actually enjoy this show.The main problem Drawn Together has is that despite initially having all the right tools needed for a quality satire on the current day and age, Drawn Together fails miserably to utilize these tools correctly, and instead bounces off the walls with confusing, irrelevant and inconsistent punch lines, that, although are caught quickly and easily understood by the casual viewer, don't end up actually garnering a chuckle from the viewer because these points of humor are not used at the right times during the show. It's like taking a blank, white canvas, having all these different colored paints, and then taking all the paints you have and soaking the canvas with them all at the same time and hoping to come up with a beautiful masterpiece. It simply isn't going to happen.The reason why shows like South Park, Family Guy and even Robot Chicken have been so successful despite having a very similar approach to comedy is because the creators and writers of these shows understood that having an at least fair amount of consistency and relevance to their product were essential attributes needed to back up the humor their shows present. It's all about being able to accurately build your storyline in such a way that you are able to plug in your humor so that your product actually ends up being funny. Shock-value and randomness alone is simply not enough to make a show funny, and in turn usually just ends up making a show overwhelmingly annoying and painful to watch. The Simpsons and Futurama have not exactly lived up their own respective hypes, but even they have not imploded with miserable failure the way Drawn Together has.Unless they are reacting to surprisingly positive ratings Drawn Together is receiving, I cannot understand why Comedy Central continues to push this awful series. Drawn Together is by far the worse thing Comedy Central has ever released, and I'm including Lil' Bush and Freak Show. All Drawn Together really is is tasteless content combined with sickening levels of shock-value and obvious but still non-funny references to pop culture and the media. This show really had a ton of potential if only it was marketed properly, but alas, not every program of this kind is destined to live up to the standards that it should.
View MoreThis cartoon may be as rude and adult-friendly as South Park, but this is much better. Drawn Together is a parody of Big Brother and various cartoons such as Josie and the Pussycats, Ren and Stimpy,Spongebob SquarePants and Pokemon. There may be less house restrictions than Big Brother but there are more cameras than a typical Big Brother house.My favourite episodes are Super Nanny, Requiem For A Reality Show, The Spelling Applebees, Foxxy Vs the Board of Education, The Other Cousin, The One Wherein There Is a Big Twist parts 1 and 2 and Clara's Dirty Little Secret. Princess Clara, Toot Braunstein, Ling-Ling and Foxxy Love are particularly well-designed because they look very much like their inspirations (Disney Princesses, Betty Boop, Pikachu and Valerie Brown). The best guest characters are the Peanuts gang, Super Nanny, Strawberry Sweetcake and Clara's mentally retarded cousin Bleh.What I like about this show is the humour and references to other cartoons. What I dislike is the racial discrimination (such as Clara calling Foxxy Blacky Boo and Godzilla calling ling-ling a Twinkie) and the crudeness (for example, Spanky playing a dirty prank on the pizza delivery guy). This is a great cartoon for the over 17s but be warned: this is one cartoon that's definitely not for little kids. 8/10.
View MoreThis is a show that will make you laugh and feel guilty for doing so. Therein is the reason behind laughing to it in the first place. It holds borderline sexual and partly racist jokes. So I must caution you now if you're expecting a clean cartoon. People keep saying you can be funny and not use anything negative in your jokes but to the people who understand that sometimes you need those outrageous jokes to laugh harder will enjoy this completely. And remember because you are watching it does not entail you will be corrupted by it at all.I've given it a 8 for a pure comedy experience with little message to water it down but I can't mark it higher due to the nature of the comedy.
