It was basically nothing. No show here.

Some guy with no neck. But nothing happens. Absolutely nothing.

Sorry that my review is short but nothing happens on this show. what am I supposed to review?

There's more than 5 episodes

I saw the original set of shorts at the Spike & Mike festival in the village of NYC. The first episode left everyone stunned in silence and confusion. by the 4th or 5th, everyone in the theater was shouting "NO NECK JOE" when the vignette would come on, and the laughter was nonstop. By the end, everyone was disappointed that there were no more. Craig McCracken has since produced a few more episodes.

Currently, there are 2 DVD's and 2 videos each with a subset of the episodes (4 or 5 each), but with some overlap between them. It's a real pain having to spend $15 on a DVD just to get the one or 2 new episodes on a release. I really wish they would release the whole series on one DVD.

Honestly, you'll scratch your head at the first episode, but love it by the end. It grows on you.

Cruel, but funny!

I first saw "No Neck Joe" at the Spike and Mike's Sick and Twisted Animation Festival after seeing "Dexter's Laboratory" on Cartoon Network. The shorts are hilarious and in later installments, Joe actually BEATS the punks by exposing his own talents, my favorite being the display of his tongue ability to a group of school girls! "No Neck Joe" is sick, tasteless, and most of all, funny. And it's a good way to check out the more grown-up works of some of Cartoon Network's newest animation stars. Another short to check out would be "The Dirdy Birdy" by John Dilworth, whose "Courage the Cowardly Dog" also airs on Cartoon Network. Both shorts can be found on various Spike and Mike videos, which are available online, or find a theatre showing the Spike and Mike animation fest, which comes around major cities every year.
