Brickleberry (Comedy Central) - Series Thread


Brickleberry is an animated series that follows the misadventures of a motley crew of national park forest rangers. When their fledgling park faces disclosure, a new ranger is enlisted to whip everyone into shape and save the park.
The series is being executive produced by our own Daniel Tosh along with comedians Waco O'Guin and Roger Black, who wrote and created the series. In addition to Tosh's helming duties, he'll voice the part of Malloy, a tiny brown bear.
Told about the show's greenlight, Tosh said, "This is going to be on TV? I thought this was a comicstrip?"

before this I thought humor couldn't get more graphic and sleezy with 'Drawn Together' - no, but then 'Brickleberry' came along. I think this show is a riot.

thoughts? comments?

Really? I mean, it's not surprising that it came from Tosh's mind...but this show is a pile of shit. I was blown away that it got a second season and Ugly Americans got canned. Not that I don't love me some vulgarities...but this show tries way too hard to be over-the-top without actually delivering anything funny.

My friends like it though, so it's often on in the background over at their place.

Well, surprise, Tosh had nothing to do with creating the show. He just voices a character and helped to get it produced.

I watch it. I find it amusing at times. If you knew Yucko the Clown from the Stern show, you'd see this is very similar to much of his comedy.

What threw me this season is that Caitlin Olsen isn't doing the voice of Ethel anymore. Natasha Leggero is doing the voice. It's close enough to fool me at first, but not anymore.

I only just heard about it last week and attempted to watch an episode... and I thought it was awful. I didn't laugh, so I guess I'm not understanding its appeal. Critics haven't been very kind to it, either.

I gave up on it after a couple of episodes and tried to give it a second chance. It's a pretty bad show.

Meh, his name is attached and it stinks of his comedy as far as I'm concerned. A turd is a turd, which happens to be what Tosh.0 had been morphing into since last year.

I like Tosh and the show has it's moments but overall it just seems like its trying way too hard to offend.

re: Brickleberry (Comedy Central) - Series Thread

so I like my comedy low-brow, but the ending of the 'Scared Straight' episode with
Spoiler:
Viggo Mortensen saving the day was outright hysterical, topped with the last bit of dialogue "now if someone could only explain to me what the @#$% just happened!"

They must be keeping it on as a favor to Tosh and his writing staff.

The Betty White Fleshlight gave me a laugh.

I knew this series wasn't long for the world when Tosh started openly mocking it on Tosh.O.
