Seriously, what's the appeal of this show?

It's funny?
I dunno user it seems pretty obvious. If its humour misses you, well, it's not for everyone.
Is funny, got memorable characters.
Surrealist humor and pretty amazing writing.
It’s funny. That’s it
SHAKE ZULLA
It don't matter. None of this matters.
THE MIC RULAH
THE OLD SCHOOLAH
Clever writing, a delightfully simplistic art style, and engaging characters
Despite the crude as fuck art style it had surprisingly tight writing, memorable episodes, fun gags, and could come up with absolutely absurd premises that were genuinely novel.
YOU WANT A CHECK? I'LL BRING IT TO YA!
Comedy.
Great voice acting juxtaposed by hilariously minimalist art and animation
Imagine being on Yea Forums and NOT liking ATHF. What are you even doing here?
The show is fucking hilarious. And the characters are very likable, especially Carl and Meatwad.
>memorable episodes

C'mon man
>Thousands of years ago...
Carl alone is the best
It is the purest of its kind. No politics, no hamfisted 'mature' topics, no over-reliance on references. No bullshit. It fully embraces being a cartoon and writes good scripts.
Kill yourselves shills
What's a friggin man huh, just a miserable pile of secrets ovah here
Yeah, well. Dracula called and he's coming over tonight. And I said ok.

tl;dr it's fun
Remember when Shake microwaved his own kitten because he forgot he already microwaved Meatwad’s?
Remember when he got zombie AIDs?
>shills
The cartoon's over man. It's done. We're done.
It first aired in what, 2002?
Its ovah. It dont mattah. None a' this mattahs.
Pretty much, it's a great non sequitur that defined AS's style of humor.
So frickin' illegal...

Bad bait. No (YOU) for you.
Oh no, he's retarded.
They truly were an aqua teen hunger force.
isn't this just a total rip of some prank caller comedy bit

Well if squidbillies can oome out with a new season out of fucking nowhere, I have a little bit hope
The dead pan look frylock gives shake sells the scene.

ATHF is LOL HUMOR double fucking standard 101. Theses are the kind of people who can kid lol humor because they think it's under them but as soon as a "Adult" cartoon does it it's the best shit in the world. Fuck the people who like this overrated crap it's not "deep" and you're not "deep". Cartoons would have been better if this CHEAP show and the others like it wasn't made.
Seething
>What happened to courtesy? Did it just disappear?
What made me laugh was always the minor interactions between characters and dialog. The premises were just throwaway to support these interactions.
That's why its so quotable
Daddy?
How did Patton voice both Ezekial and the Frat Aliens?

Such a good episode.
I've genuinely never been happier with the last episode of a cartoon series.

DARE YOU BLASPHEME THE MIGHTY JIMMY
I swear the episodes with Handbanana and the spider demon disguised as a kid rapper yelling about candy still kill my sides on every rewatch.
This thing's printed on pharmacy receipts man
DO NOT BLASPHEME THE BOOK OF CLOZAPINE!
Carl, of course. Also, they got the best intro of any cartoon ever
GENTLEMEN, BEHOLD!
stand aside
youtube.com
it used to be funny and Carl is the greatest character in the history of television
anything after the movie is bad filler to be honest though, the first 5 seasons were clearly better than anything after
>I thought I told you that the Broodwich could not be taken apart or disassembled in any way!
>WELL CLEARLY IT CAN, BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT I -JUST- DID!
Larry miller hair system was great
Only the part where Carl ruins alternate universe Carl's life for fun, which is a short part of the episode
that's essentially the entire episode
*trip
>Ayy Fryman, I got this fruity dude in a loincloth followin' me around. I keep tellin' him to screw off but I don't think he speaks any english...whaddya mean you can't see him?
@109695152
Bad bait. No (YOU) for you discord tranny.
He's like Patrick Warburton. He doesn't need to change his voice very much to give it a unique character.
Honestly, it's the greatest absurdist comedy I've ever seen. And Carl is the best supporting character ever done in a TV show.
Fuck you
>That's because....I'm straight, teeth are for gay people. That's why fairies come get 'em!
>Well, Dracula's comin' tonight for you and I said okay
>HOW ABOUT THAT COMPUTER HE MADE YOU OUT OF LEAVES? THAT WAS THE BEST!"
>Look, I know you're staring at it, I mean, I gotta drain it 3 times a day so...my brain can think good. We're hopin' that's temporary.
>Yeah, I know. l can't do one push-up, man, but they said that's okay, they'd teach me. And then they say my face will see the inside of a toilet and the inside of a fire-ant hill and maybe Germany.

>bad filler
you’re overreacting. the earlier seasons might be better, but there is absolutely not one bad episode of aqua teens.
>"No one can beat Chess Dragon, not even me, and I'm retarded"
>Theonly reason God doesn't erase you from the face of the Earth is because you amuse Him somehow.
Shake was on another level with his bants.
>How are you ever gonna ride a ten-speed with no friggin' legs? You're just gonna bust the ass that you don't even have! Who bothered to spawn you, and why?!
It's as good as watching the old abandoned Bad Boys box set down on the old abandoned flat screen plasma television.
>Frylock: "Yep. I thought it was about time we invested in a High-Definition Plasma Screen."
>Meatwad: " I thought you said TV was bad..."
>Frylock: "It is. BUT WE FUCKING NEED IT"
>No! Ze Remonster is dead, now and forever! Ze TV is dead! DEATH! VE ARE SURROUNDED BY IT!
My wife says "Next door, Jackass" to me about once a week.
Also I am Carl Brain.
>Santa Ape did not know what a North Pole was. How could he? He was born before science existed.
Still makes me laugh like a dumb motherfucker.
I hate ATHF because as a Writer it reminds me of how I will never reach that level of comedic ability. How do you come up with that shit? I'm extremely envious
That whole episode was the best
We need Carl's Stone cold Lock of the Century, more then ever.

DANCING IS FORBIDDEN
Truly they were... an Aqua Teen Hunter Force.
I loved this series so much as a kid and then I bought the whole series on DVD and tried watching it again and I didn't even chuckle. I couldn't even get through an episode. I tried watching episodes from three different seasons and it was just blah.
I was very disappointed.
You just need to accept the fact that you is dumb. Dumb as hell.
I HAVE MADE LOVE TO THIS MACHINE. AND NOW, UPON RETROSPECT, I ASK WHY...
Was it for science, or...?
NO, IT WAS FREE! AND SHE WAS DRUNK, SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT SHE WAS DOING!

The fuck is lol humor what are you on about you schizo
I think he means "SO RANDUMB XD" which is pretty funny, while this show has rather absurd plots it's anything but, the only thing I can think of that is "LOL SO RANDUMB" Family Guy and shitty youtube sketches.
Not even Invader Zim is that type of humor, it has little random gags here and GIR's a literal retard.
In addition to that:
>Frylock: I give you the ultimate in military hardware! Complete with laser cannon, indestructible titanium exoskeleton, and motion activated plasma pulse rifles.
>Shake: And you're gonna plug him in!?
>Frylock: You're right. Damn, what the hell was I thinking?
Love that part
If 12oz Mouse and Harvey Birdman can return out of fucking nowhere, then an ATHF special isn't really that off the cards
ROCK YOU LIKE A COP
>12oz Mouse
>Google it
>It's getting a 3rd season
this just made my day
Yeah boi, hasn't been officially confirmed yet but one of the animators accidentally leaked that he was working on it, and Roostre's VA said he was in studio last Friday to record four episodes
Carl.
That's literally it, there's nothing else good about the show but Carl is so fucking priceless it makes the rest bearable.
off the top of my head
>Bad Replicant
>Carl
>Moon Master
>E-Dork
>Spirit Transformation Journey Anniversary (or whatever it's called)
seriously as far as seasons 1-4 go, the challenge isn't finding a memorable episode, it's determining are the most memorable. i've watched each of these like 100 times at least
>You know what, go ahead and pour me...a little bit of a full glass of that rum.
Individual episodes dont stand out as much to me as the writing. I genuinely laugh whenever I think about the shaman with the upside down staff or dracula's "lordy lordy - look who's turning 4040!"
I still contend that Squidbillies is superior. Just fucking beautiful voice acting and sound design.
Well your mom must find it appealing. She had it on while we were fucking last night.
Seriously though, it was just funny. Truly, they were an Aqua Teen Hunger Force.
I think what shows how strong the writing was in ATHF was the limited animations they used
I'm sure...SOMEONE thinks that's interesting...
>Yeah, the light was red.
>Like your ass is going to be when I'm done with you.

You have to be in your early 00s and be on some kind of drug.
So what was your next move,
>shills
>for an almost 20 year old show
>that been over and done with for almost 5 years
Some of the gags and bits are pretty funny. But I feel like it hovers on the edge of being one of those god-awful hipster-ass 'IT'S SHIT ON PURPOSE' shows that Adult Swim used to show exclusively. Fortunately it never sinks that low.
Sounds like someone wants to get raped again.
its hilarious
and at the time, before youtube,the fact that it was on TV or that Adult Swim exists at all was amazing
>He ripped my arms off!
>Shut up I didn’t rip them
The part where he just smacks him repeatedly with the arms is so badly animated and timed so well it never fails to make me lose my shit
legends have it that osiris the Egyptian god of the dead wore this t shirt on hot days in his under in the underworld. An that's why the dead refer to him as an ass
But it is shit on purpose that hipsters like.
>Superior Galactic grandma eating a block of cheese, smoking three packs of cigarettes, and drinking a quart of milk. Disgusting, that's the word.
>Say goodbye to your old desktop!
POOF
>...Say goodbye to your new one, too.
>Frylock, he got a cyber-diamond chair trap with a nickel mechanism. You just got some dumbass purple light.
>What's that noise?
>Just some girl, begging for my body.
>How do you know that's even a woman, it sounds like a...flute.
>Well, I only date women.
>Pssh, yeah right, but what's your point?
>I never had one...and that drives you crazy, doesn't it?
>All I know is dat dis cord was plugged into my house, and your house was glowin' like the frickin' sun! So I put two and two togethah theah, and decided that you're pissin' me off.
I could list off tons of Carl quotes alone.
All shows made solely for humor, especially ones made in the early 2000s and 90s are fucking shit. I fucking hate humor shows. More shows should be like She-Ra or Ducktales, IMO. Actually have consistency, morals, and meaning instead of being there just to be “funny” and “Dirty”.
>EY YOU! Yeah, you, dingbat! I wanna pitcher a' beer, fried jalapeñas, the Nachos Grande, and let's start with 50 wings, extra hot, and keep the ranch coming.
>Why don't you buy what you need at the store? Like Americans do?
>This is like, my hobby, man. Like drinking beer is for you, or jerking off.
>I don't get any fun out of that. Sometimes I don't even know I'm doin' it. I look down, it's in my hand, it's like an addiction, ya know? But it's nice to accomplish something with ya day.
>You bring me back inside or-
>Or you'll do what?
>I'll, uh...I'll take a tiny dump on ya tongue, I'll do somethin'!
>Weird, I think I'm actually done bein' horny. Oh...no we're not. No we are not.
>Ey, so I won, right? You gonna hook me up here or what? I'd prefer length or- and girth. Both, preferably, I'll take one. Whatever.
>Another contender in the battle for the mountain!
>Aw, frickin' take it. It's right over there.
>Okay, have a crappy weekend, hope your house burns down!
>I'm repulsed...yet attracted to you.
>Yeah, I wrote that. It's called "I wanna rock your body," and then in parentheses it says "To the break of dawn."
I think he just needed recommendations.
>tonight... You
>tonight...... (you)
>Oh, you just DECIDE that I'm drunk? You can't decide! I make that decision! That decision is mine and God's!

>Yeah, you are sorry. A sorry sack of tangerine bitch
user, I'm afraid...You've been clowned!
>Go do him! I'll watch! DO IT BEFORE THINE EYES!
>I own all of your f...f...favorite movies, forever in perpe...in perpe... in perpe...
to this day, like an entire decade later, I can put on Wisdom Cube and just lose my shit
it's so bizarrely effective as a show for pure absurdism
I know what you mean, 'cause this one time, I ate boiled peanuts.
>Yes, Frylock, I am your mother. And i am a nine-layer bean burrito
>I dumb, too. But you knew that, right? 'Cause I did send out a press release. I ate a bunch of 'em. I'm dumb. Dumb.
>Oh Burt, please don't hit me!!!
>Then get the liquor, faster!
Burt did nothing wrong
>Oh dear, I'm so sorry. I think I hit your dog.
>...with my swords.
I found it quirky and funny earlier on. I could always see why people would just find it stupid, though.
Helps to remember that they didn't have a lot of competition earlier on, too.
