China, IL is an American adult animated television series created by Brad Neely for Cartoon Network's late-night programming block, Adult Swim. The series takes place in the fictional town of China, Illinois, and follows the lives of the faculty members of the University of China, Illinois, which is commonly referred to as "the worst college in America." The show is known for its absurd humor, pop culture references, and unique animation style.
The main characters of the series include the buffoonish Professor Frank, the bitter and jaded Dr. Steve, the oblivious and childlike Pony, and the strict Dean, who is also the ex-wife of Frank. Other recurring characters include Mark "Baby" Cakes, a dim-witted student, and Golden Bowl, a wise and mysterious figure who often dispenses cryptic advice to the other characters.
China, IL ran for three seasons from 2011 to 2015, and each episode was 11 minutes long. The series received mixed reviews from critics, with some praising its bizarre and irreverent humor while others found it to be too nonsensical. Despite its mixed reception, the show has gained a cult following and is often cited as one of Adult Swim's more unique and experimental series.
