Have Nero ever met Hitler ? Why invention of the planes was a bad idea? Is there any other way to create humans? If you consider these questions as funny (not stupid) that means The Ricky Gervais Show is the right type of entertainment for you! Made in typical Hanna-Barbera styled animation shorts which are more likely to remind you the Flintstones, especially when you see Ricky Gervais which animated face look very similar to Fred's one. Another funny character in the show is Karl Pilkington, and here we have to make some break and tell about Pilkington a bit more. As Ricky Gervais, Karl Pilkington is the real person, who was originally hired to assist Ricky and Stephen in some audio-engineering processes while making their show. His outlandish sense of humor and unparalleled thoughts make him a catalyst for Ricky and Stephen duo's performances, which is obviously had led Karl to showbiz. Fascinating jokes about monkeys building spaceships with banana dispenser and chimpanzee performing unbelievable tricks, made "the monkey theme" some kind of "trademark" appearing in each and every episode of the TV show which is super popular now. However everything started with very funny and therefore successful Ricky Gervais' podcasts , which were even get listed in Guinness Book of World Records.
And just might prove to be the better choice as far as the entertainment factor goes! Animation today is far better due to some CG effects. Taking up where the 2004 movie left us, Napoleon Dynamite follows along with the adventures of Preston, Idaho resident Napoleon Dynamite as well as his family friends and some new characters as well. Napoleon is a teenage boy just sixteen year old who just happens to be multi talented. Being quite good at drawing, dancing, and always practicing his ninja moves, he also claims to have a girlfriend back in Oklahoma. He has a brother named Kip who is 32 and still lives at home. Kip is always trying to meet up with girls on the internet. The brothers live with their grandmother who spends much of her time with friends four wheeling on sand dunes. Napoleon is voiced by Jon Heder and other voices include Aaron Ruell, Tina Majorino, Diedrich Bader, Sandy Martin, and Efren Ramirez.
Originally titled Townies, the animated Unsupervised was assigned to be a companion series to the popular Archer TV series running on the FX TV Network. One episode titled "Fresh Men" describes the theme of the show perfectly. These boys are 15 year olds who are struggling to make it through their teenage years and along the way, try to do the right thing without any aid from their parents. But as with the majority of teen agers (boys especially) they let their small head rule the big one, the one with the brain, and just can't quite get their "stuff" together. It's a shame to waste the acting talent, even just voices on an animated series, on this particular show because it's not going to last for long! Starring David Hornsby (It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Six Feet Under) as Joel, Justin Long from Galaxy Quest, Live Free or Die Hard lends his voice to Gary, and Kristen Bell (Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Burlesque) plays the part of Megan. Also in Unsupervised are Romany Malco and Sally Kellerman as Principal Stark.
This latest animated series from the folks behind Family Guy is about an extremely precocious seven year old boy who is growing up with a gay father, his "life partner" and Julie who is a step sister who was adopted from Cambodia. Gregory is voiced by Jonah Hill, a co-creator of the show and voice on the Simpson TV series. After growing up in opulence, Gregory suddenly finds himself attending public elementary school, and feeling totally out of sync with the rest of his world. Unfortunately, this is one animated program that's not really good for the kids. And it may not even be a good match for many adults who try to watch it. Mean and nasty, Allen Gregory is difficult to like and his odd ball home life only makes it harder to watch. The seven year old who insists on eating sushi for lunch and having a glass of wine to go along with it is not your normal 2nd grader. He has supposedly written novels, composed operas, and even dated Playboy Magazine's Chloe Sevigny but having to leave the safe and sheltered life of being homeschooled by his father Richard is his biggest challenge so far. If you can buy all he's supposedly done in his short life you may like this bratty kid, but it's gonna be a struggle!
If there were ever somebody who just seems to attract those "awkward moments" into their life it is Tim! He is like a fish out of water, and living in New York City means that makes for some amusing events in his life. Steve Dildarian does the voice for Tim who also has a girl friend named Amy (voiced by Mary Jane Otto) and a rather unusual next door neighbor in his apartment building, Debbie the prostitute (voice of Bob Morrow), who is always sympathetic towards her favorite neighbor, Tim. Crisp writing and a fun cast make The Life & Times of Tim work and as the show is animated they tend to get away with more than usual, especially by HBO standards. Look for plenty of confrontations between Tim and his boss, aptly called simply "The Boss" and some of the others at his office, Rodney and Stu. Poor Tim is constantly getting himself into situations that cause embarrassment for himself yet always in a funny way.
This is another animated comedy sit com on MTV and one that's really funny! A bunch of kids go through some fun situations each week and the voices of most characters are so familiar! Mondo Brando is a transplanted New Jersey guy who comes to Playa Del Toro in sunny Southern California with his mother who is a single outspoken woman who's ready to soak up a bit of that sun on the beach. Mondo learns to become part of the scene as he attends school and gets friendly with the locals. Mondo becomes friends with Woodie, a home boy who knows the ways of Playa Del Toro and shows Mondo around, introducing him to the off the wall characters that go to their school and play on the beach. Mondo Brando (voiced by Josh Gad from Love and Other Drugs, Bored to Death), his mom Babs is voiced by Debi Mazar (Entourage, Jonas), Woodie's voice is done by Adam Brody (Cop Out, The O.C.). And some of the odd ball characters include Turk, voiced by Jake Busey (Sons of Tucson, The Mentalist), and Wadska who is voiced by Tony Hale (Human Target, Justified).
If you like television that deals with fads from the movies, television, toys, and especially pop culture you might love Robot Chicken. It is full of comedy sketches and parodies that include using animated toys, claymation, and pose-able action figures. It blatantly steals from such film icons as Star Wars. Parodies TV stars like Bob Saget and his America's Funniest Home Videos, and even Public Service Announcements for prostate cancer provided by Optimus Prime, a Transformer character. How do you not laugh at all this madness and mayhem? Voice roles on Robot Chicken are obviously in high demand because there is a long list of celebrity guests who have provided their voiceovers for various characters on the show over the years of its run. Listen for Wayne Brady, Dean Cain, Dr. Drew, Phyllis Diller, Nick & Gene Simmons, Conan O'Brien, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Robert Culp, Billy Dee Williams, "Weird Al" Yankovic, and Burt Reynolds among many others who have become part of the weirdness of this extremely popular television show. Robot Chicken is a mad romp filled with funny skits and top quality comedy writing!
