Average customer review:Product Description
Being a supervillain isn't what it used to be in this mind-melting show from the folks behind SEALAB 2021. Killface is a criminal overlord whose devious schemes are continually thwarted by the banalities of modern life. As cost overruns on his Annihilatrix threaten his maniacal ambitions billionaire tycoon Xander Crews (who moonlights as superhero Awesome-X) leaps into action to save the human race and perhaps secure precious action figure rights. A hilarious mix of corporate satire deadpan humor and lo-fi animation gives this series its signature style and offers a unique twist to the superhero genre. This collection presents the first season of the demented scatological series.System Requirements:Running Time: 154 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS UPC: 883929010134 Manufacturer No: 1000037139

Customer Reviews
Solid, but lacking extras
I find that since tastes vary from person to person, and that since this DVD is clearly aimed for Frisky Dingo fans, I'm going to review this for Frisky Dingo fans.
First of all, it is what is is. It's a DVD compilation of the entire first season. If that's what you want, that's what you're going to get.
This isn't getting five stars aside from the 'Welcome to You're "Doom"' postcard, there are no extra paper material nor extra DVD material. That means, no commentary or anything of that sort. Even the DVD playing menu is bland and actually a bit cumbersome to navigate.
Pros:
Frisky Dingo on DVD
Cons:
That's all you're getting
Boosh!
My favorite of the new series on Adult Swim (2nd Metalocalypse, 3rd The Venture Bros., though they took a while to become as good as the first season of Frisky Dingo). A pretty fast paced animated comedy w/what some call super heroes/villains , but I would call super tools. Everyone is out for themselves and is self-absorbed. Ultimately their actions never serve themselves, but do serve to amuse the viewers. The one liners and character embarrassment come at you quickly. It's not for everyone, but neither is the mainstream pablum that passes for entertainment. If you've ever seen any of the other Adult Swim series you'll know nothing is sacred, and this is no different. It's not for the easily offended, but for those aren't... you'll watch this more than once & you'll want to show it to your friends.
You Love It Or You Hate It.
I have watchead this video many times and each time it makes me laugh out loud. It begins in a violent manner, but this is not as evident later on in the episodes. The humor is often dry and ironic, which appeals to me very much. The animation is very different, almost simple and very minimal. The characters are extremely funny and the writing is incredible. I loved it, but it may be an acquired taste.
