Bordertown

Bordertown has a lot going for it. Created by Family Guy writer Mark Hentemann, executive-produced by Seth MacFarlane, and starring Hank Azaria and Alex Borstein, it should have been hit right out of the park. I love Hank Azaria, and have been a fan of Alex Borstein since the early days of MadTV, and admittedly, they both shine here, but the show is not the sum of its parts. I'll spare you repetition. Let's just say all the common points of all the bad reviews are spot-on. I'm not even one of those easily offended types, and I still found myself thinking some of the jokes were mean just for the sake of being mean. I watched the entire first season hoping it would hit its stride and settle into a decent show. It never did. To me, it seemed like it was written by juvenile delinquents under the supervision of their "cool" uncle that can totally get them beer. I'm not saying avoid Bordertown. Just don't set your expectations very high.

This show isn't the worst, but most definitely can't be described as good. The character designs are beyond hideous and the animation is low budget. It's not very funny and often the jokes are over-the-top dumb. I did laugh at some moments.

This is one of those shows I'm very sorry about it only had 1 season, it's a lot of fun, it had to have at least one more season, showing a city on the US-Mexico border and making jokes was very interesting, some cartoons like South Park, Simpsons and Family Guy could have a few episodes less and this show could have more.

Lots & lots of laughs - I burst out a few times :-)

It's really sad that the PC crowd has no appreciation for laughs & gags.

There's a pile of stereotypical jokes & twisted humor. It's defiantly not for kids. The animation is pretty standard & reasonably quality.

Sadly, IMDb has again failed miserably with it's rating for a show I started watching. The rating of 7.6 for Legends of Tomorrow is a sham. That show is very, very bad (nope, won't cut it as a cult classic either).

I'm hoping that IMDb does not continue with the poor ratings, otherwise I'm off to a more reliable site for my reviews.

To joeywieberg-92286, the guy who tried to say Seth Mcfarlane has nothing to do with the show..."Seth MacFarlane ... executive producer (13 episodes, 2016)" "Seth MacFarlane ...

Peter Griffin (1 episode, 2016)" maybe he should read the credits before making statements.

Maybe you have to actually live in a border town to think this is funny. We do, and love this show! Where we live could be Mexifornia! Sometimes it's like living right in Mexico with all the billboards in Spanish, grocery store fliers in Spanish and having to speak Spanish to get a job...
