He is so funny and Assy says As a cowbell sir.

I couldn't believe that the Adult Swim guys came up with this character. I laughed for days just thinking about this show. Having finally seen the pilot I guess I will stick around for a few more episodes. Assy is pretty funny and the whole crew of police show characters are around, but Assy is hard to understand and that was a little frustrating. Most of the humor revolves around the fact that the title character is literally a walking ass with nothing else but legs that sport socks with garters and feet with traditional wing tips. Assy drinks too much and "plays by his own rules" as you might have guessed. The only other funny moments are Assy shooting many,many people and spending time at home - in the bathroom. It is not Squidbillies funny, but it is worth a look.

I will start this review by saying that Assy McGee, at it's core, is a very stupid show. While there is some clever parody of cop drama shows at some points, it doesn't change the fact that the premise of the show is just completely stupid. As others have mentioned, you may need to be a certain age or have watched older shows to totally appreciate the humor, but as a younger viewer my lack of knowledge on films like Cobra doesn't get in the way of my enjoyment of this show.

But that's what the beauty of this show is. It doesn't need intelligent comedy or good writing to be funny. After all, this is a show about a cop that is just an ass and legs, so what do you expect? Watching Assy's over-the-top trigger happiness and unhinged one-liners is enough to do what the show aims to do.

It's a talking, trigger happy, alcoholic ASS COP! I have seen the first and second episodes. The artwork and animation fits very well (note the facial expressions, lol). The main character being a gun toting, badge wearing, pair of butt cheeks, shooting at whoever he thinks to be offensive or "guilty". So far, the episodes have had simple and followable plots that work very well with Assy's investigations. Don Sanchez, Assy's partner, play's the sobering retort to assy's A.A. antics and random "I've got a hunch" leads. Assy's lines are very funny and clever, here's one for example, "I've got one bullet and its got your email address on it, don't make me hit send" *bang* "looks like your in-box just got some new mail." The think box at Assy Mcgee's headquarters are so far, consistent and on cue. As for the sound, it's perfect, the sound effects and voice work are 9/10. Assy sounds like Sylvester Stallone all boozed up, Don Sanchez, the Mayor, the Chief of Police, all have voices that "Fit" there persona's very well. I recommend this to anyone who wants to catch a few laughs before they go to bed, as it does air on adult swim on Sunday nights. Very funny, imaginative, visually different comedy. 10/10

And yet it is. Hilarious and strange. Worth a watch. I really wish turner was better about releasing dvds for their stuff.
