Crash Canyon

It's an awesome show, really funny. I like Vernon the most out of all the family and the rich people that have a mansion in the canyon, the mom LIKES her son and thinks her daughter is UGLY! The guy with the monkey assistant who used to work at Nasa is also pretty funny when he acts like he's a soldier (more like a scientist.) the torture lady TM (my personal nickname) who always hits that bear with her cane and talks like a man is extremely funny! (SPOILER ALERT) i like when the bear gets off the hook because her (HIS) husband comes back and the first thing she says to him when she meets him again is that "you still have chores to do." aahhh good times good times. So i think i made my point about it being really funny so if you haven't checked it out do it now! it's on Teletoon at Night on weekends.

I absolutely love this show. It is original, quirky and completely one of a kind. Everyone is quick to compare it to the Simpsons or other "similar shows"... Really, if you want something like The Simpsons, you will probably hate the heck out of this show. However, if you are looking for something that is a little whacked and very funny in a "WTF" type way, look no further! With such characters as Coma Steve and Dummy, it fills my need for slapstick, wordplay and torture (& tortured) humour all in one slap to the face. I do hope this show is around long enough to become a cult classic.

15 cult lovin' thumbs up!

Ah. Yes. Crash Canyon. I still remember in 2012, when people we're hyped by this oddity, because a Simpsons writer was involved, there was some though this show would be decent, but it seems that "Simpsons Writer" wasn't really as "good" as they though to be, because this show turned out into massive bull when it came out. Even so, i think teletoon was literally trying to get rid of this show after his original release, because there was no in-channel advertising and it was playing really late, uniquely.

Really. I may sound hysterical, but this literally makes shows like Fugget about It look worth while, compared to this. I still even regret starting this review and even paying attention to this show yet again, but there i did.

So many things to say about this already, from the awful writing, to the boring and predictable plots, to really ugly and bland design choices, to annoyingly awful voice acting, to all the characters that are oblivious bland copy and pastes of Seth McFarland trope characters, to finish with animation being as robotic and uninteresting that couldn't even compare to those amateur flash animation on the internet, but i'm not even going to bother to go further in details, thats how little i care. Everything about this show is simply wrong, and already, i probably don't need to specify, since i think people did some justice about this show before me.

So, to finish with, i'm glad Teletoon decided to get rid of this horrid monstrosity, it was a fault since the start, it deserved a 4.0 and even lower, and the people who made this clearly didn't have thoughts or even ideas clear on what they were dealing with. I rest my case.

Lets get this out of the way first, aside from the various other cartoons it rips off, Crash Canyon is trying so hard to be Canada's Family Guy that it get very distracting.

The setting is very restricted. Being stuck down a canyon means this sitcom is stuck with the same situation which leads to the plots becoming very stale.

The jokes are the same as Family Guy: cutaways. And by the same I mean they use exact the same jokes as Family Guy. The worst thing is I think they know their humour isn't working so when they think the audience is supposed to laugh they put in an obnoxious musical cue. That's desperation.

The characters a bland. Again so many characters ripped off from Family Guy, Simpsons, American Dad, the list goes on.

And of all things the theme song is irritating beyond belief. So much high pitched singing!

Bottom line: It's crap. Limiting premise, failed jokes and poor animation. Wanna watch something exactly the same but funnier? Watch Family Guy.

I must say, that i did expect this cartoon to be of decent quality. After all, someone associated the slightest bit to The Simpsons is supposedly involved, so that sounded pretty good at start. After watching through the first and hopefully last, seasons episodes, i am loss for words how horrible this is.

Don't get me wrong, i am in no way some expert critic as regarding to shows on TV, or cartoons for that matter, but this show must have some of the worst played out stereotypical characters there is. The bored teenager, the one black family, the dimwit father, and the list goes on and on. I don't know where unoriginality ends and plagiarism begins, but this is quite close to plagiarism. The similarities between this, most characters of The Simpsons/Family Guy/Cleveland Show/American dad is unreal.

If i could, i would've given this show zero stars. But since it IS awful as the one star vote says, that's what it has to be then.
