“Frisky Dingo” [Reed-Thompson, 2006] Season 1 [October 2006-Jan. ‘07]

A animated-people-superimposed-over-real-life-backgrounds show, like, say, The Brak Show, only not as thoroughly consistent or anything, about an evil villain named Killface- who is white, naked, seemingly castrate, and has bird-like talons on his feet- and his multifarious attempts to destroy the world. This all takes place in an archetypal business-like setting, whence humor is derived in a manner quite comparable to The Office. But this bespeaks a deeper, more underlying comic philosophy, one that mines the vein of the artificially-created natural, very most awkward nuances of human interaction for that ever-so-valuable mineral, humor. It’s successful, here, with a very high rate of consistency- it’s just as intelligent as most [adult swim] shows, and has a very well-detailed, intricate net of characters and plot, so it’s rather difficult for me to give you an example of this brilliant, unassumingly distinct comedy at work. Just watch it for yourself- I impel you. Grade: A
