Freak Show (2006)
Mr. Show meets TV Funhouse
3 November 2006 - 4 out of 8 users found this review helpful.
It's like watching serialized installments of the Altered State of Druggachusetts sketch, only in cartoon form instead of live-action.
Just as hilarious and transgressive as Mr. Show with Bob and Dave, but less scattershot than a sketch program. I'm glad the show can take its time over several episodes developing characters and mocking formulaic conventions like the 24-minute sitcom story arc, the weekly "lesson learned," and the retarded local evening news/info-tainment broadcast team.
"Freak Show" is funny, smart, quick, and steadily climbing up the Season Pass priority ladder.
