Yes, I am talking about you!

But seriously, I think this show is great, one of my favourites at the moment
the bad news is that it is the last of the run next week
the good news is that it is back in october

I think my favourite character is the Wizard but they are all pretty great  :) Check it out

I've actually started to really like this show, which is a big surprise.  Everything I heard about it before it aired made it sound like it was going to be awful.   Glad to hear that Comedy Central ordered some more episodes.  Between South Park, Futurama, and Ugly Americans, Comedy Central is going to seriously be able to give Fox's AnimationMcfarlanation Domination a run for its money.

I agree with SO. The first time I saw it I really expected it to suck but it's really growing on me.

Just started watching this because I was old to give it a go, and it seemed like a good way to procrastinate between bouts of studying. Really quite amusing. I loved how the wizard brought a pretzel to life and then it started to leave but the zombie ate it while it screamed "wait, I have a family!"

I'm only an episode and a half into it :)

This show did not grow on me at all. I saw two episodes and I had enough.

Same here, watched 2 episodes and I just didn't enjoy it or find it funny. I was also confused as to what the concept of the show was too.

Still though, at least it's a different idea for a show I guess, which can't be said for the cleveland show

This show is too weird to watch while you are half asleep! I was shown the episode that mocked that Jeff Probst and also Jersey Shore...I think it's kind of funny a demon would like that show though heh. I can see why the young folk may like it, it's not the same cartoon resurrected in new form, it's completely different... but a little to weird for me as of yet. It's the drawings of the zombie and ogre that make me uncomfortable.

I saw the episode Soul Sucker which was pretty amazing. Hilariously funny. The Jersey Shore one grew on me but Quaggle the troll annoyed me. I just saw the man bird episode and that was bizarre...Soul Sucker is my favorite so far

Update: I got the first season on DVD. Now I love it. Haha and at first I hated it. Pretty funny stuff! I love the zombie roommate Randall he makes the show

That DVD is going on my Christmas list.

Why won't they come out with a release date for Season Two instead of having it on the iTunes :mad:

I love the direction they have taken with Twayne's character the last season...he started out as a self-centered hardass now he's a self-centered wimp and it's awesome because you expect the opposite from a badass demon. They found what works and are really milking it hahaha.

The Ugly Americans reference to Close Encounters was AWESOMELY RANDOM!!

Seriously am I the only one watching this show? There are weeks when I prefer it to Futurama, even. There isn't really one episode of this series I strongly dislike.

Really? I wasn't sure based on the previous week's previews, but they even made Randall being a plant funny (and the whole thing referring to The Little Shop of Horrors).

Twayne is probably my favorite character now because of how much he has turned around from season one. First he was mega hardcore badass, now he's mostly just a wussy heh.

This season has got me enjoying Doug quite a lot, but Twayne makes me laugh too. I still enjoy the whole idea of the show in general, so there's always something amusing each episode.

I was unsure of this show initially. It's weird. But it's growing on me. Like some kind of lichen.

I think because when you first saw this show, you also first saw Archer. And that's... Well, Archer is fantabulous, and it's so very much you, so this show couldn't compete with that. Whereas I quite liked both shows, because I know all and see all.

It has grown into itself though. At first it seemed kind of random, but now they seem to have developed the characters a bit. It's still random though..hmm.

I don't know. If I could be bothered being creative I could probably come up with some crazy shit without the influence of any drugs. Maybe Panadol.

"Whoa! A talking dog! What were you guys smoking when you came up with that?!"

It's a good show but it's not even in the same league as Futurama.

Classic Futurama or season 6 episodes like TLPJF, maybe. But lately I have been finding UA much more enjoyable to watch than recent Futurama episodes.

^hehehe.

It's baaaaack! Really great episode. Usually Premiere episodes are a lot of hype with little to no return entertainment value, but as far as Premieres go this one was pretty good. Way better than Futurama Season 6 premiere, but oddly enough just as weird (or more).

BTW has anyone been able to find Season 2 on DVD? Amazon is only offering virtual downloads of episodes, and I want to watch it on my tv (since I can't hook up my computer to the tv)!
