Squidbillies (2005–2021)
8/10
deep-fried hillbilly humor fest
3 September 2008
Just to let everyone know, you don't have to be of southern extract, deeply inbred or American to watch and truly appreciate this awesome show. Squidbillies is as socially indicative here in Australia as it is anywhere that there exists small pockets of humanity who seem a little isolated, rural and backwards (back-woods). They may not be classy but these characters are certainly a lot more honest and alive than the empty, plastic, user-friendly drones pumped out by the "so-called" sit-coms of today. The subtle nuances within each character are rendered to near-perfection from Earlys sardonic trucker caps to grannies mysteriously phallic droopy middle tentacle. The voice talent in Squidbillies is second to none. the writing is insanely funny, the wild, playful artwork complements it all beautifully. Sometimes true sophistication comes in truly crude packages and thankfully shows like Squidbillies, aqua teen, Kenny vs. Spenny and Trailer Park Boys exist amongst the mediocrity of reality television for the masses. With the late great Bill Hicks and George Carlin no longer with us, its shows like these that provide hope for the future voices of comedy and indeed humanity. greets to early, granny, and rusty from outback Australia.Now excuse me, i have got to go get me some of them chrome plated truck nuts for my truck-boat-truck. its muddin' time. Whooooo!
