Hey Guys RegularShow1 here and today I'm reviewing a show that been on Cartoon Network for almost 2 years called "Uncle Grandpa". This show is OK I known a lot of people hate this show because it weird . The show is also created by Pete Browngardt who also created "Secret Mountain Fort Awesome". The show is about a magical man named "Uncle Grandpa" who is everybody's Uncle and Grandpa. The other characters are "Pizza Steve" who is a talking pizza slice. Then their "Mr. Gus" who is a fire breathing green dinosaur who is the voice of reason. The show premiered on Monday, September 2,2013. Anyway I think "Uncle Grandpa" is OK show but it's not as good "Adventure Time" and "Regular Show" but it's better then "The Problem Solverz" which that show sucks. Anyway I'm giving "Uncle Grandpa" a 8 out 10 Stars. Anyway guys I'm RegularShow1 and have a Nice Day. BYE.
I am 48 and get this show. I think it confuses a lot of adults, which is weird because there is plenty for adults to like. Yeah, the name is a little off putting but I believe it's an either/or type name. He's either an uncle or a grandpa to kids. (I would think.) It's Mr. Gus by the way and not Glen the Dinosaur. This show is great in that it challenges children' views of reality and to not limit your imagination. I've seen that quite a few adults do not like this program, but it's not for you. I don't choose my children' shows as long as it's not an adult cartoon. Uncle Grandpa is one of their favorites that they DVR. (Is that a verb now?)
I love the surreal humor and wacky characters! My favorite parts are when Uncle grandpa does physically impossible stuff but no one says anything about it. He's like a demi god or an SCP and this show is highly amusing.
I understand how so many people find Uncle Grandpa hard to watch or find it too trippy and hallucinogenic to stomach. But if you know the history of animation and enjoy surrealism, Uncle Grandpa is a BLAST!
Golden Age animator Tex Avery once said, "If you can do it in real life, it isn't animation." Uncle Grandpa embraces that philosophy and runs with it. Every animation gimmick you've ever seen appears at one time or another. Stuff out of the frame (including body parts) cease to exist, perspective gags galore, selective gravity, photo cut-outs, sight gags, visual puns, internet memes, breaking the 4th wall... Don't even try to keep a list, there are too many.
My only complaint about Uncle Grandpa is that sometimes it's a little too NORMAL. I can get normalcy any day without turning on the TV.

This show is by far the most random show ever I have ever seen, with it's ultimate weirdness and bizarre randomness you can't take the show seriously, but it is surprisingly good to watch.
The stories and morals don't make any sense, but that's what the show is. It's basically a random mess, and that's what the show is suppose to be. Unlike shows like "Pickle & Peanut", this is intentionally random and ridiculous.
This is the Marmite of cartoons, you either love it or hate it, and I love it. You can't help, but want an Uncle or Grandpa like Uncle Grandpa.
Unlike Pickle & Peanut and Breadwinners, the stock footage and photo shop pictures are necessary.
