The Brak Show - cancelled???

This sucks so much. I love this show. I'm praying for a dvd set now, much like Aqua Teen and Space Ghost. I will forever miss Brak.

I'm guessing there'll be a dvd set -- especially given the apparent popularity of the ATHF dvds -- sold out repeatedly if you believe the cards on Adult Swim.

When I saw the show on New Year's Eve, I thought they were joking, but they just kept talking about it after the show.

It's official
Status Canceled/Ended (Brak announced that the show was cancelled during the 12/31/03 episode.)

This was probably my least favorite Adult Swim show. I just found Brak really annoying. The dad was good though.

Same here, I thought it was a joke. Wouldn't have expected that, even though it wasn't my favorite adult swim show.

Wow..This was my second favorite adult swim show (not counting Futurama and Family guy) behind ATHF of course. Much funnier then Sealab 2021 IMHO. Too Bad!

Last seasons episodes were all pretty weak, or tried to be "too zanny" for it's own good. That New Years Eve episode was probably one of the better ones they've done in a while.

Damn shame, though.

Condolences for the fans, but I never liked it. Probably my least favorite of the 15 minute Adult Swim shows.

So Brak has had two shows cancelled now. Anyone remember his other one from several years ago (Had Brak in the title). Only lasted a few episodes.

That sucks. Although SeaLab and Brak both leave me with the "what the hell?" type of feeling afterwards. The New Years episodes were a lot better than the last few weeks. Now I hope they keep Harvey Birdman. And bring back the original voice. Home Movies is one they NEED to cancel. How can anyone watch that crap?

Home Movies is the top 3 AS shows, Family Guy and ATHF the others. I can not wait for the Home Movie DVD to come out.

Home Movies is either my first or second favorite Adult Swim show. I exclude Family Guy and Futurama since they are originally from another network. I am waiting endlessly for the new season to start.

Can someone explain the appeal of Home Movies? When I watch all I see is crappy animation, stupid storylines and voices. Enlighten me.

I cannot possibly put my love for Home Movies into any kind of explanation. It just works for me I guess. I find it continuously hilarious and it's easily my favorite Adult Swim series. I just cannot wait for the new season to start.

I guess it's just a weird sense of humor that I happen to share. It's not conventionally funny by any means and the show just drives my wife nuts. But for me it's pure comedy gold.

I feel exactly the same way. Especially the episode where he finds out he ends all his movies with the same line.

Home Movies was on UPN first so you can exclude that one too. Of course, so far, Home Movies is the only one that continues to make new episodes. Hopefully, Family Guy will make new episodes someday too.
