TripTank

This is just crap. Theres really not much to say about it, a bunch of crap put in a show and called comedy. I tortured myself to watch more than one episode of this, still hoping to get something from it, but i got badly disappointed. I did'nt laugh, i did'nt even grin a single time, i did'nt even think once "ok that was kind of funny". This show is just a nonsensical, badly put together, not funny at all, piece of crap. I have the feeling with that show, comedy central reached the bottom of the pit, they must be really desperate.

Like most anthology shows, TripTank is a mixed bag of good and bad stuff.

Truth to be told, most of the segments are bad, but there are a few gems there and there.

Some segments are not particularly well animated, but at least they are amusing to watch.

It biggest weakness was relying too much in shock value, but I guess that's a common element in many modern American comedies.

OK I love comedy I love female comedy male comedy animated comedy real life comedy I even love skit comedy bit this however is nt funny in the least 'I have only seen one episode but it told me all I needed to know 'this show is repulsive this show is gruesome this show is NOT FOR CHILDREN' and in my opinion isn't very funny I may have laughed once and I have loved other comedy central shows 'broad city the daily show'' even without john stuart and workaholics' this just isn't for me sorry if I offend anyone but definitely not my cup of tea

This show is a hodgepodge of different styles and sensibilities and as such, it's a mixed bag. At its worst, the sketches are too reliant on shock humour and can sometimes miss the mark but there is still some good writing here and it's a cool show to look at due to the range of different animation styles on show.

Overall, TripTank is a decent representation of internet cartoons with the same foul humour and general abrasiveness that once couldn't work on television now finally getting it's chance to be seen by a wider audience. It's giving talented people the opportunity to make a living as well as the chance to work with some of the best voice actors in the business who they probably otherwise wouldn't get the chance to work with. So for that, I give Comedy Central a pat on the back and hope they can continue to give their animators greater creative freedom come season two.

I may be too hung up on trying to understand things, but Triptank is just a mess of half baked animated shorts that has no cohesive thing that keeps it together. It relies way too heavily on bloody/dismemberment gags and way too little on funny set ups or clever writing. I watch it and think of someone stitching together some of the more mediocre stuff produced as student projects at some animators' school. It's not ready for prime time. Are you listening, whoever organizes this show? Watch a few seasons of Robot Chicken, and then make your best effort at a knock off of that show, you know, a show with humor. And Comedy Central, you don't need to grab just any animated creation. Granted a duo like Parker and Stone don't come along too often, but there must be better animated shows available to air.
