Every so often I see it brought up as being so edgy and funny, but it's really not. There are a few moments that are funny, but they're packed between racism, ableism, and really any kind of -ism you can imagine. It gets defended as "just a shitpost" from the same crowd that talks about the glory days of people not being so easily offended. I rewatched a compilation before posting this just to be sure of my critique and it's exactly as I remembered lol. Nothing but attack helicopter tier jokes. Some people say if you didn't watch it in the 2000s you won't get it, but I've seen shows from the 2000s that are actually good and funny shrug-outta-hecks

Anyway, I'm convinced most people who talk about how funny it is haven't seen anything beyond clips. It's just lazy and boring

Yeah. It was funny to watch once because it was so absurd and unexpected, but it was funny because it was absurd, not because the jokes landed. Like an animated train wreck.
