Get ready for amazing writing and surprising costars.Ĭonan O'Brian calls it, "An ambitiously left-brained show." It is my favorite thing to watch on Adult Swim right now. This fall Adult Swim and IFC are turning out three comedies which are all brilliant parodies of television dramas. It's necessary to take a step back and realize what archetypes we've gotten used to and how silly they can be. What better avenue to take than making a parody of a drama? I have written articles concerning this before how parody is so important in understanding ourselves. Some of the best comedy mocks the seriousness of a tragedy.
