    Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
    Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
    Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
    Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
    Stalfos Conner The idea of the show is quite inventive. The show is a spoof of reality shows and the characters are spoofs of well known characters. Put together in a house, what could go wrong? Well, an awfully lot. It's really a missed opportunity because the show could have been great. The show tries desperately to be at least ranked among shows like Beavis and Butt-Head (1993), South Park (1997) and Family Guy (1999), with the intention to surpass them in offensiveness, shock and smuttiness. Movies and TV shows nowadays have the tendency to support and promote sexual promiscuity, sexual perversity, drug usage and the trashing of Christianity. Not only is Drawn Together one of such shows, it also tries to do it more more than any other TV show or movie. Drawn Together is so desperate to achieve that goal that everything that makes a good TV show (story, character development, etc) is thrown out of the window. What is left is hard to explain because the show acts more like a device to test what can be shown on TV and what will be accepted by the audience. It's really a shame because the idea of the show is good.The fourth wall is broken all the time. That doesn't have to be a problem, but it is in this show because of the lack of continuity. The characters talk to us as if they watching the TV show with us. Whatever you see in the show it's completely irrelevant because of the lack of continuity. You may see someone dying at one point with a complete dramatic scene, then that person is alive and well in another scene and everybody acts as if nothing has happened. Thus no episode has any real story to tell. It all comes down to pushing the limits of what is acceptable (on TV and by the audience). It's all about shock, offensiveness and smuttiness. In that regard, the show's attempt to spoof film and TV clichés backfires because the show itself becomes overloaded with clichés. The main characters of the show are a good example of that.Captain Hero, a spoof of Superman, is a mentally challenged pansexual sociopath (even worse than Family Guy's Glenn Quagmire). Xandir P. Wifflebottom, a spoof of Link from the Legend of Zelda video games, is a feminized gay (often portrayed as one of the most reasonable characters of the show). Princess Clara, a spoof of Disney princesses, is racist, religious, spoiled, selfish, arrogant and anti-gay. Get the drift? Anything religious and heterosexual is portrayed as insane, hateful and wrong. Anything anti-religious and sexually perverse is portrayed as sane, loving and right. In other words, it follows the the standards of the movie and music industry nowadays, but taken to the extreme in Drawn Together. Once you figure out what the characters are about, they become highly predictable (the show uses shock and offensiveness to combat the predictability, at the cost of rationality, continuity, etc) and therefore clichés. That's how the show also tries to make "jokes". It's like a movie that markets itself as a horror movie that is scary but all the movie really shows is show people getting chopped up in pieces. Gore is not scary, it's just repulsive. Likewise, anything based purely on shock and offensiveness is not funny, it's repulsive. That's exactly how bad Drawn Together is. Some TV shows (like Family Guy) limit themselves in how much they show their support or mere exposure to sex, drug use, etc. Not Drawn Together. The show is overloaded with sex, even exposure to incest and/or inbreeding ("Hot Tub" (season 1, episode 1), "Xandir and Time, Sitting in a Tree" (season 2, episode 11), "Little Orphan Hero" (season 2, episode 3), Unrestrainable Trainable (season 3, episode 4), etc). Drug use, necrophilia, murder (even the murder of children to sell their meat (Unrestrainable Trainable)), racism, etc. That's basically what the show is all about. Insulting Christianity, for example, is enough for most TV shows and movies today, but Drawn Together has to go one step further, like portraying God as touching a penis in curiosity (Gay Bash (season 1, episode 3)). That's Drawn Together, it's shockingly bad, has no standards whatsoever and it's so far the worst insult to TV viewers and their intelligence. I have personally never seen a show (or movie) that has sunk so low, is so disgusting and has absolutely no conscience, humanity or anything like that.Drawn Together is worst adult cartoon ever. Period.
    The-Evil-Dead The amount of positive reviews I've read for this show on IMDb so far is absolutely incredible considering how bad Drawn Together is. Family Guy and South Park it is not... Instead the creators think that anything that's extremely random, completely disgusting, or stupid as all hell is comedy.This show sucks, and I'm extremely surprised it's still on TV. I'd speak further for my cause but I don't think I should have to if anyone who doesn't find the most retarded humor to be enjoyable has watched the show.Goes to show you how many morons there are watching this garbage.
    Rusty Shanks This is a show that will make you laugh and feel guilty for doing so. Therein is the reason behind laughing to it in the first place. It holds borderline sexual and partly racist jokes. So I must caution you now if you're expecting a clean cartoon. People keep saying you can be funny and not use anything negative in your jokes but to the people who understand that sometimes you need those outrageous jokes to laugh harder will enjoy this completely. And remember because you are watching it does not entail you will be corrupted by it at all.I've given it a 8 for a pure comedy experience with little message to water it down but I can't mark it higher due to the nature of the comedy.
    LoneWolfAndCub Drawn Together is one of the funniest (if not THE funniest) parodies I have ever seen. The script is incredibly funny and witty and the characters are the funniest take-offs ever. T here is Ling-Ling, the pikachu like creature who is always ignored and taken advantage of. Princess Clara is what you get when you blend all of Disney's princesses together. Captain Hero is a take off of a few superheroes, but he is extremely weird and quite lame. Foxxy Love is the "black chick" of the house, the only smart one. Toot (a 20's sex symbol) is a Betty Boop rip-off who is way past her time and overweight. Wooldor is a demented Spongebob/Ren & Stimpy type critter. Spanky Ham is a crude, internet flash. Xandir is a homosexual Link-esquire type character.This show parodies almost everything from games, food, movies, music and TV shows. But there is plenty of sex jokes, nudity, racism, violence, gore, sadism, etc. For the easily offended, stay far away from this show. But for those looking for a crude laugh, I strongly recommend the best cartoon out now.5/5.
