I know that threads of this subject have been done before, but I went ahead and watched some episodes recently on YouTube. Many fans agree that this show was underrated. I can talk about many underappreciated shows, especially animated ones (like The Critic), but I read that this show was screwed over big time by The WB. I read that it was cancelled after the second episode. Adult Swim picked it up and aired some of the unaired episodes. I also read that there were episodes that were written but never produced.
What are your thoughts on this show? I found myself laughing so hard when I watched some episodes recently.

I liked the older, hipster brother and nerdy, younger brother dynamic. Also probably the first time I've heard Brian Posehn. I remember it being very funny.

Great show. A friend's wife worked on it as an animator. Was her favorite thing she worked on. "Yea the fanbase for Mission Hill is great. Unlike the fan base one of the other shows I worked on. What sucks is the other show is huge. But the fans..."

Definitely underrated, and arguably a bit ahead of its time with regards to the setting and the characters therein. Will always cherish it as the show that introduced me to the word "douchebaggery".

Very fun show. I know the creators have explored the idea of making more in some capacity, and this is one of those situations where I think, yeah, totally, if you can make it happen. It's not like there's this enormous legacy to live up to.
