I Am Weasel

"I Am Weasel" is a spin-off of the wonderful show "Cow and Chicken." "Cow and Chicken" works. The characters are wonderful. The jokes are random and the plots are ridiculous. "Cow and Chicken" is wonderful. "I Am Weasel" at first seems the exact duplicate of "Cow and Chicken," and even has several of the same characters. The look and the feel is the same, but all what makes "Cow and Chicken" funny seems to be missing, and "I Am Weasel" just comes off as annoying. The characters are terrible. The show replaces Cow with a baboon who can barely speak English, and replaces Chicken with a weasel that sounds like he came out of a bad James Bond parody. It doesn't work and just isn't funny. It was funny when it was on Cow and Chicken the first time, because it was so random, but was not at all deserving of an entire series.

While certainly not the best "Cartoon Cartoon", but it isn't bad either. It's a pretty good show that has its moments. The intellctual I.M Weasel, and the incredibly stupid I.R. Babboon are funny characters, as is the Red Guy (who also appears on Cow and Chicken). This show is quite similar to Pinky and the Brain since one character is smart, and one is an idiot. While not as good as Cow and Chicken (David Feis's first cartoon to grace television), it's still worth checking out.

After all, there isn't another show that has the main character scream out "I AM WEASEL"!!!!!

I AM WEASEL is not as innocent as Cow and Chicken. It is more adult. As predictable as these characters are, just when it seems to get tedious, the plot takes an unexpected turn. This keeps things fresh. Weasel is the kind of character that is an over-achiever but rarely seems boring. Baboon will usually do the one thing you'd least expect and that keeps things from settling down for too long. Is it for the kids? Maybe, but not young ones. Adults will enjoy it though. Is there any chance that they will ever make new ones?

In all a cartoon that is innovative and fresh. Too bad that more weren't made.

The one (and only?) common thing is the Red Guy, probably the most notable character in cartoons history. Michael Dorn and Charlie Adler are truly a perfect pair of voices.

I just remember now IR & IM Weasel as viking warriors, ancient Rome gladiators, or Reg Guy making Lady Mariam or Caesar - I don't think this kind of humor is present elsewhere.

A definite five star for this show.

When I saw a premiere of another show for part of David Feiss, i was excited, but is not a simple show, is a Spin-off of his last Show "Cow and Chicken", it came of random shorts of his mini adventures, and it was great, but turn to a show of eleven minutes per episode it's different.

The Characters could be sometimes hilarious, sometimes incredible, sometimes bad, I.M. Weasel is a famous, heroic, eloquent, highly intelligent, and many-talented weasel and I.R. Baboon, an ugly and idiotic baboon who is envious of Weasel's success and constantly tries to be better than him.

The animation is the same of Cow and Chicken, not original

Sometimes the plot could get some repetitive, but is still hilarious, at least it's better than cow and Chicken.
