Title: ugly americans
Post by: rtil on March 18, 2010 06:04 AM
did anyone watch the pilot for this right after south park? the animation style is pretty reminiscient of augenblick. it takes place in manhattan in a world where all different types of creatures live in society (zombies, robots, weird deformed humans, etc). the main character is a lazy social worker who's dating a literal spawn of satan. decent pilot, it seems worth watching so far

yeah i caught this. it was pretty good despite having a rather bland "everyman" lead. animation is great too.

I liked it, thought it was pretty funny and the show seems to have a lot of room to grow. Also love Augenblick's animation, so fucking fluiddd

i just watched the pilot and it looks interesting, but 80% of the jokes were really lame.
i think tv pilots are kinda bad in general tho, because they're always going to crazy lengths to get the viewer hooked
i hope this gets better. i actually really like the idea

thanks for the link :} I dont have cable so its hard to find these.

Watched it, and I liked that first episode haha. Hope it continues, it will probably get even better. Also, Augenblick studios is awesome.  I'm glad they got picked up for something new (probably because of the sucess of superjail which I adore as well).

Oh yeah wanted to dust off this thread to mention Ugly Americans has been picked up for an additional 7 episodes in October. Cool because the show seems to have improved a ton in comedic timing since the pilot.

It seems like the kind of show that could definitely hit a stride and become excellent if the creators have time.
As of now its about Daria-level. "Pretty OK"
