Superjail - for CoasterMatt

I agree that the theme song is the best part.

A little of this stuff goes a long, long way for me. The shock value of violent cartoons wore off about 200 South Park episodes ago. I like the trippy quality of the design, but wish it could be applied to something a little more engaging and less pandering. Based on the opening title sequence alone, it's clear that these guys have imagination to spare. Is this really what they want to achieve with it? But, hey, I'm an increasingly unhip old guy, and most of the stuff on Adult Swim is so aggressively adolescent, I feel like my parents when I watch it. (Except for Robot Chicken - that one makes me giggle.)

The character designs look almost exactly like cartoons my older brother used to draw. Those tended to be ultra-violent as well. Hmm. Maybe he's got a new job I don't know about.

Heh, this is the part where I say "but dad, these are two totally different types of violence!"

I like that it draws on (heh) the classic high school doodler style.

Augenblick Studios seems at home in many different animation styles. Click "Animation" and they've got tons of clips they've done for various (messed up) shows. It's freaky how well they emulate wholesome styles with seriously f'd up storylines.
