Pattern Recognition: Free Absurdist Cable Television.

Sunday, November 25th, 2007

Each of the big adultswim.com premieres this week are absurdist explorations of male-only parenthood. They’re so goddamn serious about being retarded that they can only be described at cutting-edge-ridingly hip.

  • Garth Marenghi’s main character acquires a baby man-eye that drives him a bit crazy.
  • Xavier finds himself in the care of seven babies after he steals them, and then solves the mystery of who stole them before he does a phoenix act.
  • Tim and Eric introduce their huge collection of cutting edge children, all conditioned and disciplined to be ready to active achievers in the next generation.
  • Boondocks hasn’t been getting along this season (unwatchable again this week), taking itself way the fuck too seriously.
  • Check the full Tom Goes to the Mayor episode this week entitled “Glass Eyes” to get an eyeful of retardedly serious nonsense.

Stupid serious is a serious phase of hilarity.

I follow up tomorrow.
