12 oz. Mouse

Some of adult swim's charm comes from the fact that they may not have a large budget for their shows; the comedy is so funny that you forget the "cheapness" such as "Aqua teen Hunger Force" or "Tom goes to the Mayor" or "Robot Chicken". But where 12 oz. Mouse and even "Squidbillies" goes wrong is when the cheapness is the joke. When I watched the pilot I have to admit I laughed at some aspects of the way the characters were drawn and how it looked like it was made by some perverted 3rd grader. But as the show went on I noticed that that was it. No actual attempt to make jokes or comedic timing happened throughout the entire 15 minutes. Even the static on the microphone used to record the voice of The Shark could be heard. Shows like this make the "goofs" feature on "IMDB" useless because the entire show is a "goof". This is why I respect the shows like "Venture Brothers" because they actually draw and at some time and effort into their show. They develop plots and have actual jokes. All in all I hope that 12 oz Mouse will get canceled before it even starts. User rating 3/10
