Too Many Cooks.

[FPLOON]

This was funny, then disturbing then deranged.

Even before watching it, I knew this description right here basically describes a good sum of most of Adult Swim's own one-off shorts of this manner...

OT: You know, I would actually would watch a sitcom-type show called "Too Many Cooks", with each season adding in more and more various characters and more and more locals and implied situations, both live-action and, later, animated, up until it all falls apart by the sound of a serial killer successfully killing their targets one by one in slasher-based fashion...

Also, that theme song was so perfect, it became too irritating to ignore out of sheer endurance... Download, please!

That was awesome!

...So when's it coming out?

Also as side note for those of you who've watched it already. Watch it again and pay attention to the background for that guy.

Last time I saw it one of the top-rated comments was a guy who time stamped all the locations of that guy. Took a little bit of the fun out of it but it was helpful.

What a hell of a "to be continued" ending.

Jesus...

It's the sitcom takedown to nostalgia driven ideas being applied to modern times in much the same vein of Don't Hug Me, I'm Scared is to societal values we deliver to children because "that is right/what we've always done/better for others".

It's the kind of thing where I'd need to sit down for a few hours and write a bloody essay on the thing.

What's missing from the Youtube clip is that this originally aired at 4 a.m., between infomercials and with no prior advertising or warning. You wouldn't know if it's a show or not, and considering the time you'd probably be begging to wake up.

I was fortunate enough to see this the week it first ran at 4 in the morning.

I still think the Falcon is the best character.

I can't even comprehend what I've just seen. I'm at a loss for words. That was quite possibly the best worst thing ever or the worst best thing ever, there is no middle ground.

 

[Radoh]

That stupid frickin'...
The Super Best Friends talked about it on their podcast on Tuesday and I've watched it at least twice a day since then, I can't stop watching it.

Just heard about this alittle while ago.

I'm happy that this exists... but I have no idea why.

Incidentally, I've heard it suggested that "Too Many Cooks" would be a great alternate title to Breaking Bad. Just imagine Breaking Bad characters in an intro sequence with that song playing in the backround. You're welcome.

Got about minute and a half in and it seemed incredibly tedious. Flicked through other bits and didn't see anything that enthralled me.
Dunno, maybe 'cos I never really watched American sitcoms before but it wasn't my thing.
