    awesome show

    this was one of the best cartoons i've ever seen but it was cursed by being on MTV, and thus it had a short but glorious life. it didn't have many viewers but those of us who did see it are extremely lucky. it deserves to be released on DVD and to be aired on adult swim (and have new episodes) but it doesn't look like either will happen... and i'm sorry but how in the world is laguna beach or super sweet 16 a better show than 3 south. i for one don't really care to see rich kids cry about how there parents treat them badly because they won't buy them the brand new bmw or whatever else they want. stepping off my soap box now, but what i'm really trying to say is that many people have been wanting to see this show again for years now, and if you've never seen it then i truly feel bad for you.

    Funny...that's it.

    This isn't brain food, that's for sure, but if your in the mood for some funny stuff, at the expense of your IQ, this is the show for you. I love it. I think you should give this show a chance...it'll make you laugh a couple times, I'd be willing to bet.

    Comic genius

    First off I would like to say that Steve Callaghan and Erik Flester are two very talented writers. Some previous works included Ren and Stimpy and Futurama. The evidence of comedy is apparent in 3-South. Next, I think this show is outstanding. The characters are very different from anything I've seen before. The comedy comes from not only the writing but they way the actors deliver their lines. Brain Posehn is extremely talented and hilarious. The way he says something is just as funny as the line he says. 10/10 for this great show.

    Funniest show ever

    This was the best show ever! MTV has some good toons but this crosses the threshhold. 3-south is packed with side bursting, eye wattering humor that can only be title as funniest show ever. MTV needs to realize that not alot of people want to see wrestling at 10:30(or for me any part of the day) and to put this show back on the air!

    The Best Show You've Never Seen

    "3-South" is easily the funniest and least-known animated series of all-time. Never before have I laughed so hard while watching TV, and never before have I laughed so hard while just thinking about the moments from the show that really get to you.

    The show takes place at a fictional college known around the nation as terrible (Barder College), following three freshmen: Stanford (Brian Dunkleman), Del (Brian Posehn), and the intelligent Joe (chose Barder as a safety school, just in case he wasn't accepted to his first choice Harvard) voiced by the show's creator and "Family Guy" writer Mark Hentemann.

    Its humor is absurd, but laugh-out-loud funny. It's the kind of show that makes you think, "Damn! I wish I would've thought of that!" which is really what makes a show great. I give it 10/10. If it wasn't for MTV's terrible promotion of the show, it would still be on, and, most likely, alongside such great animated series as "The Simpsons" and "Family Guy".
