Flapjack is definitely bizarre, But it is extremely creative and funny with 2 likable protagonists, odd stories, and interesting animation.
While it may not be as great as Chowder, it too actually does a very good job trying to save Cartoon Network from going downhill. The man who created Flapjack has worked on three of my favorite Cartoon Network shows such as the Powerpuff Girls, Billy and Mandy, and Camp Lazlo!
In fact, a lot of the crew who worked on Camp Lazlo! worked on Flapjack. The art is very creative, it's dark and realistic, it has more to it than just being gross, the grossness and disturbing imagery fits the setting of the show, and the characters are very well-written. Not to mention, the voice acting is spot on. True, it's insane, but what would you expect? It's actually something I prefer over Superjail! Heck, the creator of Gravity Falls worked on this show.
So, I was wrong about Flapjack being a horrible show. I really like Flapjack the way it is.

All I can say about "Flapjack" is that it is one of the most bizarre animated show ever produced. Sometimes we watch it & when the episode is over we look at each other & say "Huh"? But we're always entertained & always laugh out loud at something. As a matter of fact "Magic Genie Island" is perhaps the strangest cartoon episode I've ever seen & I've seen a lot of em'. Suffice it to say that you've gotta see it at least once & experience the oddness for yourself. The animation is striking & in some cases a bit nightmarish but always interesting to the eyes. The voices are spot on as well. A great cartoon is what it is so give it a shot.
This show shows that Just because it's gross or its ugly doesn't mean it's bad. I like gross out, but I like it when it's done right, and Flapjack shows how you can do it right, It differences itself from Ren and Stimpy by being more slow paced, Calm, and more Quirky if you're thinking of the Sea Urchins Episode. Honestly, watching an episode is like watching Spongebob, it's real satisfying but it gets dirty and gruesome that it increases the engagement. When it gets gross, it's actually funny. The animation is slow yet it has some structure and feels like a Pirate map, the voice acting is well done in this show, Flapjack feels like a kid, K'nuckles feels like an Irresponsible Adventurer, and Bubby feels just like a sassy yet mother like character. The Characters are also great, its People like the Urchins,Punsy McKale, and Peppermint Larry that make me laugh even harder than seeing Steven,Garnet,or Peridot. I honestly don't see why Mr Enter hates this show only for gross out, I also don't see why it caused him to become a Virgin, It's calm and interesting but gross, and when it does get gross like in the Kitten Scene,it's calm and Subtle about it. Saying that I'm not a fan of gross out just because of Asperger Syndrome doesn't mean that you have to say that Patrick McKale isn't Human or that J Q Qunitel should die, Aspergers isn't something to say only to get furious about a cartoon and cyberbully writers of the show, as said by Zach Bellissimo, If you don't like these shows then don't watch them. Either way, if you're a fan of adventure and like to have a good ol'chuckle with the writers of the show, then this is the show for you.
Flapjack is one of those rare cartoons that you just don't see anymore. It has this very surreal feel to it, almost like it is more for an older audience. It isn't afraid to show gruesome images or add a bit of adult humor. It has a lot of random humor as well. Saying this, I wouldn't recommend it for young children, because I feel adults would probably appreciate it more. It reminds me of the older, classic cartoons, where anything was possible and no one was afraid to push the envelope. And one random positive is that the characters is likable as well as quotable. One of these days it will be one of those classic cartoons. Awesome cartoon.
