I could only think of one appropriate way to introduce this show and that is with an homage to the introductory monologue from The Big Lebowski:
-----
Now this story I'm about to unfold took place back in the mid 2010s-- just about the time of our conflict with Syria and Isis . I only mention it 'cause some- times there's a show--I won't say a masterpiece, 'cause what's a masterpiece?--but sometimes there's a show.
And I'm talking' about Harg Nallin' here-- sometimes there's a show that, wal, he's the show for its time'n place, it fits right in there--and that's the Harg Nallin', on |Adult Swim|.

Okay so like the introduction here says, this is a show that if aired at any other point in time it would probably have been out of place. This show is really a stroke of absolute genius and if you were a fan of the show Monkey Dust http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0386224/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1 and the dark, sardonic, ongoing sketch based humor format Harg Nallin' is going to be a show you need to see. Really it's a genius project and Brad Neely has definitely shown the right to put his name at the beginning of this. It's kind of got an oldschool Brad Neely comics kind of feel with familiar characters, voices, and scenes with brilliant background animation that both draws your attention but is utterly irrelevant to the main point each moment is trying to make.
This isn't a project for the well adjusted, this isn't for the fan of Big Bang Theory, it's not a show for people that love prime-time TV, in that same sentence it probably won't do well with Robot Chicken fans or fans of other fringe series. The people this show is going to appeal to is a small group but it's a group that's been watching Neely's shows since China, IL and all the way back to his early work where he first introduced Babyface and Steve. It's going to be a marginalized group of freaks who grew up on PeeWee's Playhouse, dark humor late night cartoons back when CC did that kind of show, or people that have ventured into other countries' entertainment to find something with which they connected if even from a third person of a third person. I'd say that the show isn't intended to be funny on it's own in it's own content, but I'd be wrong; it's a difficult humor to explain, it's just something you get or you don't.
Every once in a while there's a show that's perfect for it's time, and Harg Nallin' is that show.
