    Very Witty Political Satire

    Two episodes of this series have aired and I find it to be very witty and funny. It's always very up to date with current events. There are a variety of characters on the show lead by conservative republican Brian Newport. He's normally accompanied by his best friends, Jimmy Townhouse and Craig Tingle. That is when Craig's wife lets him go out. You'll also see liberal waitress Sami, who always disagrees with Brian and makes for some great dialogue between the two. Other than the regulars you never know who's going to show up in the bar from Ted Kennedy to a raid by Tom Ridge for watching Wheel of Terror on the al-jazeera network. I really like this show and I hope it does well. Congrats to Steve Marmel and everyone involved!

    The Goode Family makes this show look like Mr. Bean the animated series

    This has to be one of the worst series about a bumbling fool ever . If not, it is THE fifth worst series about a bumbling fool.

    1.) Chalkzone 2.) Squirrel Boy 3.) Will & DeWitt 4.) Tak & The Power of Juju 5.) This Just In

    The entire series revolves around Jourinist and Current Events while being as illogical as can be. If it reminds you of Mr. Bean: The Animated Series, you are not alone. Also, there is no redeeming qualities about the entire series, since the plot is so unoriginal. Furthermore, the characters are anything but likable and memorable.

    There are enough movie failure puns and references to choke a horse. Also, they have every cliché in this series. I am glad it is all over.

    as for the last show that was like this one

    The Goode Family (to me) is S*&^. Pure and simple. It has poor Dialog, it has poor plots, the characters feel stale as a piece of toast that has existed for as long as a dang tree, and for some reason I want to vomit at the sight of an idiot Father trying to get his family out of a jam. Yeah...NO MYSTERY THERE! Honestly, it in my opinion tries to be good but...but...MAN!

    I'm sorry if a fan of cartoons like this is offended by this review, but pure and simple, this is just an opinion! With a few observations. Man, when Mike Judge made TGF, he feels like he wasn't just scraping the bottom of the barrel, ABC took some justice & they've finally been throwing the darn thing away.

    My thoughts on the show

    This is an excellent show. Not only does it make fun of everyone I hate on the left it even does it to some on the right that I enjoy. The satire is quirky and smart. The characters are actually believable. Brian Newport is like my TV twin that I knew existed. The only cartoon that I've seen that lets conservatives have their say. I would recommend this to anyone that is tired of the same old drivel on TV. The show is not afraid to be quote unquote politically incorrect. However, liberals may not enjoy it because it points out all the flaws in the so called logic of their beliefs. To the person that posted before me, have an open mind and watch something that hasn't been run through the liberal filter.

    Good political Satire, but biased

    I find this show to be very well done, and anyone with a good grasp on current politics could enjoy this show. Brian Newport represents the Republican side of politics, while Sammy, the waitress at the bar he frequents, represents liberals in America. The show will very likely p*** off a lot of people, as it tends to lean a lot more to the right than the liberal agenda. Still, if you try to look at the show objectively, it takes a good look at both sides of the political spectrum. Honestly it pokes fun at both sides, but since the show really revolves around Newport, it seems to show more of a conservative viewpoint. Behind the stereotypes and outlandish plot lines, there is a lot of comedy. I like to think of it's political satire along the lines of the last few South Park seasons, although it is much more overt in its political "moral" in each episode, if you want to call it that. I encourage people to watch the show, unless you don't like having your political party getting made fun of.

    Brilliant political humor

    The guy who came up with this show is a freaking Genius! He has more conservative views than other political satire (Think Mallard Fillmore) but at the same time doesn't hesitate to pop in a few jabs at some conservatives who are over the top as well (John Ashcroft).

    Hu and Craig Tindle's relationship is also one of the funniest parts of the show. The phone ringing "rrrow-snickta", him trying to lie to Hu when he doesn't realize she's right in front of him and getting dragged back home by her, etc. has really beefed up the humor immensely. I think the funniest parts where Craig has gotten as much of the upper hand as he'll ever get with Hu were in the Episode where they went to Vegas (Craig did everything wrong and kept on winning) and the episode where Craig got Arnold Schwarzeneggar to get the bar owner out of jail by saying he was his cousin Craig "Tindle-neggar". The ending scene with Craig and Ahhhhnold at Hooter's, with Arnold goading him to grope the Hooter's girl had me rolling on the floor, laughing my @$$ off!!!

    Keep this show on TV!!!
