It's about 3 food items living in a rented house in New Jersey. Master Shake, is the self proclaimed leader of the group and seems to react before thinking, Frylock is the most mature member of the group (mostly due to having to keep Meatwad and Shake safe) but has been known to go crazy at times, Meatwad is the child of the group who gets hassled by Master Shake but gives Shake his come uppance every now and then. Carl is their neighbour and landlord. And Ol' Drippy is an overgrown piece of fungi who buys everyone latte's. Questions? And don't forget they solved crimes..... well one.... maybe..... in season one.

I LOVE this show. Some of the episodes are just so bizarre. It's also the little things that make it memorable, like how whenever they throw something, there's a fiery explosion.

ATHF, like the rest of Adult Swim, has gone from absurdist humor and downgraded into making an intentionally bad product, or going for tasteless shock value that doesn't work (see aforementioned "Frylock gets cancer" episode). Couldn't have put it better. Remember that one ep where they said "dick" every third sentence? I sat there watching and thought "Wow, this isn't even campy, it's just bad..." It is incredible what can be greenlighted these days.

Your sig just reminded me too...Harvey Birdman was on it's way to being one of the funniest cartoons in a while, but then it got butchered to the point where it was just 12 minutes of non-sequiturs and pop-up jokes. But, that's for another thread...

I loved this show, but Dickesode might be the worst episode of anything I've ever seen, bar none.
Adult Swim is always proud when they can make a viewer sit and watch 15 minutes of crap, they find it funny.
Seriously, they could put this on, and then people would be talking about how funny it was:

Used to love this show but Hand Banana and the raping jokes made me lose interest in it.

The sixth season was really bad, but in general I love the show. I think Dickesode and the Cancer one were the worst.
