I watched it right through, no skipping and i kinda want 20 minutes back as compensation. It's a ridiculous parody that goes on slightly too long before switching gears into something dark then looping back into parody and just doubling down on the mindfuck because coherency is too hard when out of ideas... Wow, don't think outside the box too hard there, Adult Swim. I know your specific raison d'être is shit that doesn't make sense but come on. Critics like our very own swagonion can overanalyse it like Oliver Sava reviewing Adventure Time like it has a deeper meaning but no, it's not deep nor insightful, more "hah, we're fucking with cultural touchstones!" by hack writers who barely scraped through college and just throw everything at the wall to see what sticks, the more fucked up and meaningless the better. Crap like that should have remained jammed at 4am where nobody could see it.

I can only hope that one day this is what replaces Bob Burgers, but of course with Tina integrated into the new show, which entertain us not only when it's on, but also when it's not, as those of us who get it - which is to say, the only people who matter enjoying the only show that matters - can scoff, or pity if we feel like being nice to the non-people, at those who lack the intellectual prowess and refined cultural palate to appreciate the majesty in their midst.

At the very least Tina could potentially be macheted early on.

Oh no, that won't be happening. Then she won't be available to host her nightly talk show afterwards.

That sounds like a worse horror, thanks for ruining everything I know.

And I suppose a just one also gives us Tina After Dark and Too Many Cooks?

Then it's entirely unjust and should be nuked from orbit.

Then i'll find that "I don't want to live on this planet anymore" macro but only have it relate to this hellscape you painted... in puke and probably some shit for texture...

Seems like a lot of work. I'd just turn the tv off.

I'd probably just end it all because of how inescapable it all is, life loses all meaning in the face of such adversity.... so yeah, just turn off the TV.

Finally caught it myself, chuckled a couple of times, not sure why everyone got obsessed with this for like a week. Doesn't really good together, not even in the adult swim "this purposefully isn't holding together!" way.

“Does this mean you’re going to make love to me tonight, Great Unwashed?” Holy shit. Did I just say that? His mouth drops open slightly, but he recovers quickly. “No, Hippo it doesn’t. Firstly, I don’t make love. I fuck… hard. Secondly, there’s a lot more paperwork to do, and thirdly, you don’t yet know what you’re in for. You could still run for the hills. Come, I want to show you my playroom.” My mouth drops open. Fuck hard! Holy shit, that sounds so… hot. But why are we looking at a playroom? I am mystified. “You want to play on your Xbox?” I ask. He laughs, loudly. “No, Hippo, no Xbox, no Playstation. Come.”… Producing a key from his pocket, he unlocks yet another door and takes a deep breath. “You can leave anytime. The helicopter is on stand-by to take you whenever you want to go, you can stay the night and go home in the morning. It’s fine whatever you decide.” “Just open the damn door, Great Unwashed.” He opens the door and stands back to let me in. I gaze at him once more. I so want to know what’s in here. Taking a deep breath I walk in. And it feels like I’ve time-traveled back to the sixteenth century and the Spanish Inquisition. Holy fuck.”

Yeah, I'm sorry. I didn't know it would end up there, though I should've.

It was a dumb and fun 10 minute thing, nothing more than that. All it was trying to be was amusing and I think it did the job. I think the reason why people got so sucked into it wasn't really because it is some piece of art that has some grand underlying meaning to it, but the fact that someone actually ended up making it a reality.

That's what I said but I didn't want to give a lick of credence to it being funny, just that it's bad and shouldn't exist.

I personally think their advertising campaign was a little too low-key. I only saw it on this Bronx shopfront, but doing it in 1931 was quite the foresight on their part:

So, the new Adult Swim infomercial premiered. Am I the only one who thinks it's actually great? Like, I think it's legitimately, unironically really fantastic. It helps that the person who plays the mom is a really great actress. Also, for the people who went on the fake website and clicked on the house: How far did you get? I buried the present in the backyard, but I don't know what else, if anything else, is supposed to happen.

I just realized what the porn parody of Too Many Cooks would be called and I am equally disgusted with myself for both thinking of this and not thinking of it sooner.
