ATHF IS THE BEST SHOW ON TV!

I think you'll have to do a little researching to find my 2 favorite characters though...

AND I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEW EPISODES! YES!

4. hee!
"I want CANDY!"

MC Peepants was NUTS! Exquisite episode.

Meatwad's my wife's favorite. I think because he's kind and likes toys.

I have this theory that Shake inwardly knows that Frylock is a better "person" than he is - he's more successful, has real-deal super powers, can relate to people better, has more things, etc. - and it drives Shake nuts that Meatwad doesn't feel the same way about Shake that Shake feels about Frylock. Thus Shake's constant, gleeful, utterly cruel torment of Meatwad.

3. thanks to you,
ATHF IS THE BEST SHOW ON TV!

Yes, it really and truly is. Every other animated show in television history pales next to it. Yes, even the Simpsons. Yes, even Futurama.

ATHF is something truly and breathtakingly rare - absolutely, uniquely, wholly, originally brilliant. There has never been anything like it, before or since. And it is also the most bone-crushingly hilarious cartoon ever filmed - the first time I saw "Dumber Dolls," I literally almost puked laughing.

The only characters I know I missed would be the two aliens in "Space Conflict from Beyond Pluto" and "Bad Replicant," whose names escape me. I hear tell that there's going to be a spinoff episode in which Ignignot and Err do battle with those other two aliens, which would, of course, rule.

My favorite Mooninite quote is when Frylock tells them: "Do NOT drape that towel on my computer," and you can just barely hear Err off in far left stereo (down the hall) mutter "I'm GONNA!"

My favorite moment ever is when Shake notices Happy Time Harry, doused in gasoline, and, quietly stunned, remarks, "ohmygod..."

5. Yeah, I know!
beats out every show on TV. "Dumber Dolls" was awesome, I'd say. Happy Time Harry was great, not to mention he was played by David Cross (!). Another one of my favorite episodes is "Return of the Mooninites". That was the first episode I've ever seen of the show and I thought it was hilarious.

The two aliens you think of are Oglethorpe and Emory. I won't forget either of those two episodes, and I think I might change my sig line soon to feature on of their quotes...which one do you think I should put on?

My favorite Mooninite quote is when they're just walking back into the house in the 1st of the 2 eps and Ignignot says "using a key to gauge expletives on another's car is a sign of trust...and friendship." Then Carl is out by his car yelling "WHO DID THIS TO MY FRICKIN CAR!"...lmao, that was the best.

My personal favorite moment is in "Dumber Dolls" when Shake comes back in the wheelchair with those plastic eyes...ROTFLMAO! That was too good...(sigh)...best show ever...

6. hard to pick

That's right - those two are among the ones I've only seen maybe twice since discovering the show a few weeks back, so it's hard for me to pick a specific quote. I'll have to watch the two episodes again and come back with one. My favorite of their appearances was the "Bad Replicant" episode - that was beyond great; their whole ship was equipped with useless disco accoutrements, to the point where Shake was just dismissing them with less than even contempt, treating them as a total joke and demanding to be fed.

That also had a great Carl quote asking Frylock if he knew of anyone resembling a giant milkshake who might have stolen his car and driven off a bridge, finally concluding with "I Hate You!"

I also agree that the last ten seconds of "Dumber Dolls" were what truly put it over the top, into cartoon history. I won't detail it here so not to spoil for any other readers, but I seriously almost had a stroke.

7. yeah, same here.
That was simply too great. I suppose I'll have to go back myself and look...wow, this show has too many good quotes. I think I'll have different sig lines for years to come!

Do you know the date the DVD is coming out?

9. I hear November
Don't have a specific date yet, but according to athf.com, that's the approximate timeframe. It should be excellent, both of the first seasons and a huge amount of extras.

I'm just so beside myself after finding out that eighteen goddam new episodes are coming out starting at the end of this month!!!

YEAH!!!

10. Could someone explain how to play "Meatwad's Dance Dance Jambox"?
I know you're supposed to hit the arrow keys at the right time but I can't figure out when that is.
