Grimsburg thread. I really like Grimsburg, it has genuinely funny moments and some good world-building of Grimsburg. This is a world filled with things like criminal conventions, magic, women raised by bears, and cyborgs. Season 3 started off weak with a Breaking Bad spoof and a Last of Us spoof. But the last episode "Flutey Friday" was good. It was a body switching episode between Stan and Marvin. There are a lot of wacky jokes in the episode and some incest things. The episodes work best when they are about the relationships between Marvin, Stan, and Harmony. I watched the episode twice, and it was funny both times. I often re-watch episodes of Grimsburg and notice new things that I didn't see before.
>>156255514Started watching this a few days ago. I was to fuck Wynona hard and Harmony gently.
>>156255514Not only do I like Grimsburg, I don't NOT like Grimsburg. Haven't been able to say that about much lately.I do think season 3's a little weak, but it's still funny, and I think the point is 'stop caring about anything but the humor' hence all the over the top wackiness like cyborg guy turning into a boat. They're not gonna spring that shit on us later, there's never gonna be a 'The Principal and the Paper' of this show.
>>156255514>The episodes work best when they are about the relationships between Marvin, Stan, and Harmony. There are two types of Grimsburg fans, then. I've seen some say they prefer the family stories that FOX likely demanded when this show pivoted to being an animated series, but I've also seen fans say its strengths lie in the workplace comedy side with the police department. Personally I'm a fan of both, and I'd like to believe this versatility in stories Grimsburg can tell will give it that extra edge in possibly securing a fourth season (it's okay; you can laugh at my delusion)
>>156256293both parts are so incredibly silly. I could see it working no matter what>her robe falls openi somehow missed that part! God, even when you pay attention, this show Naked Guns you down.
>>156255514The protagonist reminds me of Harry from Disco Elysium so that's neat.
I love it. The constant stream of jokes means bad ones never have time to linger.
>>156256550a formula that never fails. I bet it's hell on the writers, though
One thing though, that 'Welcome to Grimsburg' billboard gag is usually pretty bad. They should retire that.
>>156255514I want a millennial writer to actually explain how a fat cop is inherently "spooky"
>>156257308u wot
>>156255514Do you think they draw the legs super long just to give the middle finger to literally every other adult animated show, even the relatively realistic ones like King of the Hill?
>>156258686I never really noticed the legs are long. They are more proportional to real legs. The characters have to do detective things like run around, get into chases, and kneel to look at clues- and this works better with longer legs. Marvin Flute is depicted as pot bellied, but he's not fat and out of shape like Peter Griffin and Homer Simpson are. He can still run around and chase after bad guys and win fistfights.
>>156258964exactly. it's quite refreshing.I suppose you could say both arms and legs are long, or another way would be to say the torsos are short. But most adult animated shows just shorten legs, so it's a fascinating change.
>>156255514this season gets better? the last of US/Pedro Pasqual wank made me leave it right at the start.
>>156255514Alright I'll watch it tonight, I need a new show.
>>156259091Season 3 has been underwhelming. But Flutey Friday is seriously a good episode, I watched it twice and it was hilarious. The Last of Us and Breaking Bad episodes weren't very good. Stanbiscuit was cute to see more Marvin and Stan bonding. Crimeshare was decent if you like seeing the detective team do things together- it would have probably worked better with Pentos there though.
i love the showpeople really hate on adult animation being these comedies but grimsburg and universal basic guys are just comfy shows to have onso was Duncanville and Bless the Hartbut its so hard to try and sell these shows to people
>>156259171indeed..
>>156259141>Stanbiscuit was cute to see more Marvin and Stan bonding. The Stan hobby-horse shit didn't interest me much, but I found their Severance parody pretty inspired.
>>156260222I can never tell, when this show does something stupid, if it's purposely riffing on other cliche sitcoms that do dumb crap like having the kid be into some competitive sport for exactly one episode, so they purposely made it .. that..wait, so that thing with the compartmentalized mind thing was a parody? aw, I thought it was original. How old is that movie? It's too good a concept to be new
>>156255514>The episodes work best when they are about the relationships between Marvin, Stan, and Harmony.I seriously don't understand how anyone could ever feel this way about Flute's family. Take away their thinly applied gimmicks and they're just a girlfailure trying to be a girlboss and an effeminate sheltered kid constantly seeking approval. Bog standard sitcom material.The precinct make for much more entertaining comedy and characterization, not just because their gimmicks are more firmly ingrained in said characterization, but because they have much more potential for situations even without them.
>>156259171I've been enjoying the Anidom block too, but Simpsons and UBG's Disneyland shade this past Sunday as well as the influencer spoofs a couple weeks earlier made me weep for FOX's nonexistent marketing budget. Can't believe we used to have it so good... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5sdBStLfg5k
>>156260519The short jokes with Martinez are a gas
>>156257318You heard me.Fat cops are not spooky or scary
BUT SEX
>>156262968Wynona is fun. I can see why Summers has the hots for her
is it any good or typical millennial nihilism slop
>>156263520There are "millennialisms" as far as excessive pop culture namedrops from time to time, but the series as a whole is purely comedic. I wouldn't say it's for everyone, but I find it fun.
>>156257266Well that's where we'll have to disagree!
>>156260407Severance is a TV series that premiered in 2022. You should try it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmS3m0OG-Ug
Kang is my personal fav, I love the stoic, seemingly no-nonsense type who can still let loose around his colleagues
>>156266089I love his voice~
>>156266274And I love his great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-granddaughter.
Would you all hate me if I said I still haven't seen Freaky Friday? Not ONE of the four existing versions?
>>156260519I like that the mom was raised by bears.>>156261230why would they be? what are you saying someone else is saying?
>>156262968hehe. buttsex.>>156263520it's extremely 80s.
>>156267243you dont need to actually see it, we have alternatives now. It served a purpose when that was all we had.
>>156257308It's the burg that's grim. He just lives in it.
>>156268183wait, the guy you're replying to,did he think the title of the show means that every single character needs to be spooky? what does he think is spooky about the old guy in the puffy coat or the guy in the middle?
>>156268362>did he think the title of the show means that every single character needs to be spooky?Sure sounds that way. The gag is more that it's the weird murder/crime capital of the world than just spooky though. Every character is some kind of weirdo but it's more like Picket Fences cranked up to eleven.
>>156255805Grandma's not bad either. Might have to move a few hanging tapeworms out of the way before you get to the honey pot, but whatever.
>>156268693my brother in Christ that is a BEAR
>>156269132beary hotbut also beary old, if she raised a human kid who is now grown with a near-adolescent kid of her own
