Caustic, Offensive, Authentic...and HystericalJanuary 5, 2009 I had to be convinced that it was worth my time to check out SQUIDBILLIES--and I'm glad I did!
I never "got" AQUA TEEN HUNGER FORCE but a lot of my friends love it. I enjoy ROBOT CHICKEN and HARVEY BIRDMAN-ATTORNEY AT LAW but I have to say that SQUIDBILLIES gives me the biggest belly laughs from the Cartoon Channel's late night Adult Swim fare.
Having grown up on the edge of Appalachia (and experiencing more than my share of rednecks and hilljacks), I also love the authentic terms and phrases that lace the Squidbilly dialogue. A lot of my laughs can be attributed to the recognition of just that! "All up in my business," "the TV looky-box," etc.
But there's a sharp, satirical mind behind these shows that lampoons more than just redneck culture. From what I've seen so far, everyone and everything is far game for the SQUIDBILLIES, from corporate exploitation to government incompetence to even NBC's Dateline "To Catch a Predator" series.
Funny, funny stuff.
squidbilllies rocksDecember 25, 2008 this show is amazing. I never would've thought that the exploits of a North Georgia Mud Squid and his dysfunctional family of cephalopods coukld be so entertaining, but sure enough, just add pine cone liquor for chuggin and a truck boat truck for luggin(and maybe a giant foam dickhat) and you got yourself one hell of a meth fueled ride with Awesome Bill from Dawsonville in the pilot seat.
Funny and artisticDecember 21, 2008 This is a very funny and eccentric show. If you have any familiarity with backwoods southern culture, then you might think this is totally hilarious like I do. Also, the background animation and music is very artistically done. This show is certainly not for everyone, but adult swim fans should love it.
Absolute inbred-interspecies good times!December 7, 2008 I received a call late one night from my mother while she was out of town. It was about 2 in the morning, and she was laughing so hard she could barely speak. She had found an episode of the Squidbillies on television while being unable to sleep. Due to the time of night and my mother's quirky sense of humor, I accused of her of making the whole thing up! I could not believe that what she was describing, was actually being aired on adult swim. I believed even adult swim had a fine line. Apparently not! lol! A few weeks later, I discovered that my mother had been telling the truth. There was a cartoon called Squidbillies. I went onto youtube and viewed a few clips then purchased this dvd. The rest if history! If you are looking for a very unique, odd but unbelievably funny cartoon- then this is the one for you. This was right up my alley. It truly is a guilty pleasure. You just can not stop watching and the theme song is addictive. LOVE IT! My favorite character is granny. Enjoy!

This is one of the funniest, if not the funniest, Adult Swim shows. Very crude and offensive humor at its best. Unknown Hinson cant not be beat as the lead character voice. The first episode in not so great, but everything after that is great. This dvd has some great features, especially with Unknown Hinson. The animation is different and just takes some getting use to. The hillbilly humor is great. Adult Swim fans must have! Can't wait for the next season.
