So there's like 5 of us who like this show?

I thought it was pretty funny the first time I watched the pilot, and hilarious the second time. My roommate seems to agree with me, so I know im not completely alone on this. Seems like most of the people here hated it though. A lot of it seems to be that they don't really seem to get the humor, although a couple did and still didn't like it.

In case you want to see what my typical adult swim preferences are, Aqua Teen is my favorite show followed closely by Frisky Dingo, I'm one of the few people who likes Squidbillies, and i absolutely can't stand Tom goes to the Mayor or 12 oz mouse. Except for liking squidbillies, I think im pretty consistent with your average [AS] viewer, so is Saul just my new Squidbilly anomaly?

Oh and im still pissed about no more space ghost, brak show, and perfect hair forever. Sealab on the other hand should have ended when Goz died, after that it was just crap.

I don't think there are even 5 that like this show. I just checked the star rating and it says "awaiting 5 votes." I know I certainly am not one of the five.

But then I am still looking for pictures of the suits at Adult Swim who cancelled Harvey Birdman so I know what to make the voodoo dolls look like.

I’m open to the possibility it’s possible.
Is your mind open to the possibility it’s impossible?

At least 6 must like this. This programme, or "show" as yous americans would call it is hystericallly funny. Saul malone is one of the new heroes of comedy, especially with his catshphrase of "savages", cracks me up every time, and i've only seen the first three episodes. Luv the theme song, too.

Isn't it strange how different parts of the AS audience love/hate different shows.

I think Squidbillies is probably the best show followed closely by TGTTM. Frisky is also a fav. Harvey and Venture Brothers are pretty fn, too. So is Brack show and Sealab

ATs are hit or miss.

Can't stand 12 oz Or SOTMM or perfect hair.

My favorite shows on AS are Futurama, Family Guy, Venture Bros, Saul is good sometimes. I cannot understand Frisky Dingo no matter how hard I try :D, I think I would like it if it made sense to me :).

You have a point there, no one ever seems to like the same combination of shows, everyone prefers something different. That's a good thing, though, that there's enough variety on their schedule that allows this to happen.

I hope you've counted me among the 5. I love Squidbillies too.

I like it too! Seems that Cartoon Network themselves doesn't like it. There's no episodes available on adultswim.com anymore.

Being a kid in the mid-70s I grew up with the Sid and Marty Krofft shows. So this parody of all of those shows plus the mix of political satire makes perfect sense to me. I wouldn't expect anyone who didn't appreciate those original shows like LOTL or Puffinstuff to "get it".

I'm 28 and I like it.

I like a lot of "post-modern/surreal" comedy hsows like Wonder Showzen and Tim & Eric.
