Why do so many people fail to understand this show?
There’s nothing more to “get” than what is presented at face value. The thing is, you would only find it funny if you were a white millennial. Since you’re posing the question, I’m guessing you are one.
they have autism and i'm being serious that's the actual reason
>>216471499Bro i had a happy childhood with a strong father figure. It isn’t so special, stop trying to make a number out of it.
>>216471582Yeah but The Big Bang Theory isn’t funny
Do you need to "get" people who eat feces? Are they just above the curve?
>>216471499forced thread
Casa Baja is gentrified.
>>216471582this is it. autistic freaks have gotten a way overblown opinion of themselves on the internet and this show bursts their bubble hard
>>216471499Because they're not smart enough to understand it.This show is only for the high iq people.
>>216471499it doesn't have irony
Because it's not funny and and it isn't well animated, and it's not even well drawneded. Smiling Friends is actually what Adult Swim should be about. You guys only watch it cus an eceleb made Haha.
>>216472295>You guys only watch it cus an eceleb made Haha.I literally had no idea who Joe Cappa was until this shit started airing.
>>216471581>There’s nothing more to “get"Don't you GET that he did an amazing job raising those 3 boys?!
>>216472215>LIES EVERYONE IS LYING.. Except me. Ghosts talk to me. I'm a ghost whispererThis was waaay to realistic for a cartoon
>>216471582this, same reason we have multiple bump-limit threads of autistic screeching for every Smiling Friends episode
>>216471759What the fuck was her problem I died when her fat Mexican tuco husband showed up apologizing with laughter lol
>>216472295>it's not funny and and it isn't well animated, and it's not even well drawneded. Smiling FriendsSo.... you're saying they're the same show basically
>>216472462Brings tears toy eyes how proud she is. Of him. Of those beautiful boys
The fact that everyone continues to act like a pretentious gay about this ugly show keeps me from ever watching. Shant be watching
>>216472644You're watching now. It's called life
>>216472644welllllllll goodbye bitch
>>216471499Retards get filtered by the artstyle and are so coddled and sensitive that they can't handle the fact that the character design doesn't match the personality. They see characters designed as obvious chads, and expect them to be asshole roid rage dudebro douchebags.
anyone saying autists don’t like the show is a just a coping autist. it pokes at the “normal” weirdness of normies thats autists see all the time, but how could the weirdo call someone else weird? thats what this show seems to do very well
this show has so many small golden moments in every episode
>>216471499This straight up looks like shit. Who would willingly watch something so ugly?
>>216472951>i am NOT an invalid! i am NOT an invalid!cry harder sperg
>>216473231some people dont see color
>>216472602The difference is that Smiling Friends has Marc M, who is an animation guy before eceleb faggotry was even a thing.
>>216471499Honestly just relieved Pweston got back his bomma
>>216472644Everyone acting like a pretentious gay about not watching this show is what's tempting me to give it a shot.Still haven't yet because it's so fucking ugly, but I probably will.
>>216472644filtered
>>216473346>Says art style is ugly"You talkin about brown people? some people don't see brown people!!!!"
>>216472580Some kind of personality disorder
But I'm an autist and I love this show
Bros bros, remember that time they all looked at each other?!
>>216473412The Tuskegee airmen subplot was pure gold
>>216473412>>216473741>Preston taking the waitress not caring at all about his bomber jacket to mean that she never heard of bonber jackets or wwii>>the episode ends with him getting her college classes- never too late to improve yourself!
>>216473277zero reading comprehension
>>216471499I enjoy it. This kind of surreal humor was big before the average IQ online dropped by about 60 points over the past decade and it all became "other tribe bad"Just thinking about the concept makes me smile but maybe I'm retarted.
>>216473362>>The difference is that Smiling Friends has Marc Mhe also does some animation for the showhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCRZRju5xJE
>>216471499So you people endlessly shit on Common Side Effects because of its art style but this is okay?
>>216474480we're not all one guy
Why cant I find torrents of this?
>>216472756The art style is the only good part of the show. It's what made me give it a shot, but after watching 2 episodes devoid of even attempting a joke I decided to give up trying to like it.
>>216474498I'm using the qBit search function and I find new episodes pretty easily.
>>216473231Ask your dad.
hideous art style, I simply can't watch
i dont care that this exists, or that people have that type of sense of humor
>>216472756To be honest I was really just expecting it to be another cynical shock value show. I’m glad I was wrong, I quite like their dynamic.
>>216474605this
>>216471581>you only find it funny if you were a white millenialSo you are brown or a boomer or zoomer. Ok, it's not for you then, go watch more reddit friends.
>>216471499its funny because it makes fun of white people
>>216474498Just watch it on wco.tvIt's not really worth bothering to torrent a ten minute episode cartoon
There’s some small animation quirks that remind me of PilotRedSun.It’s also super wholesome, I teared up and clapped at one episode unironically.
>>216474915>millenialgood morning
>>216474925Low IQ take, it's self depricating in a good way. It portrays White families as being naive and overly-wholesome, but still functional. And the mutt kid in the recent episode was fucking hilarious. I'm surprised x didn't freak out about it.
the new episode was really good
>>216473412They had me worried for a minute there
>>216475261I'm suprised the goblino isn't being spammed on /tv/
I haven't seen their girlfriends since ViralDid they break up with them because they made their dad fall?
>>216475545Preston's gf was in the bomber episode
>Dude heckin' wholesome chungus>Shit animation is deliberate and therefore good because it just is, okay?!>WHERE'S THE BLOODY JOKESIt's fucking dogshit. It's an abysmal attempt at non-comedy made by people who hate comedy. It's an unforgivable assault on the eyes and ears and the fact that there's even a thread about it on this shithole of all places is fucking disgusting. Get this shit off my screen and into the abyss.
>>216471499I just watched the first episode and Im disappointed. I might watch one more episode.
>>216471499You needed to grow up in a white, upper-middle class, nuclear family in order to appreciate it.If your Dad never hugged you, you probably hate this show
>>216475757I think the shorts are a better entry point desuhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSNdmSEg_qQ&list=PLTxyIFFk4r5adnllCLJ5L4mbgy6OEM5Tn
>>216472295Smiling Friends is made by a YouTuber. How is that not an eceleb?
So I watch this and Smiling Friends by mooching from my parent's Youtube TV account, and whenever I watch it its INTERLACED TO FUCKlike its so bad its grating on the eyesis this strictly an unfixable Youtube TV issue?
>>216471499>haha, you clownsI'm just surprised by my own enjoyment of it. I don't get why I like it, I just do.
It's just too ugly to look at AND listen to. I could take either the horrifying art style or the deliberately obnoxious voice acting, not both.
>>216472580She was just some crazy bitch. I feel like this is way too real because encountering a "fun" chick who soon reveals herself to be a nutcase, only for her apologetic husband to come retrieve her is a very real thing.
>>216471759>>216472580>the way she was acting at the dinner tableThere was something wrong with her, red flags were going up all over. The boys not knowing better and trying to act like her behavior was ok had me laughing.
>>216473346And those are not "people"
>>216475736You seem like a midwit who thinks entertainment needs to lecture you on some sort of point for it to be good or engaging.
>>216474964>mutt kid in the recent episode was fucking hilariousThe ugly goblin kid was funny, he appeared out of nowhere and actually had me wondering for a second what they meant by that.
>>216471499>Joe Pera died for this
>>216471499it's not hard to understand at all, just wholesomeness with a slight tinge of something unnerving to give it flavor
It's official, /tv/ loves the show.
>>216472689This made me laugh so hard the first time I saw it
>>216472756>They see characters designed as obvious chads, and expect them to be asshole roid rage dudebro douchebags.What's funny is that from what we saw in little tidbits throughout the season and particularly the sauna episode the boys kinda are douchebags, but they're still also very nuanced characters which clashes with their classic strawman idea of the asshole white chad
>>216474915I'm a brown zoomer and i watch both
>But like I guess I'm just trying to figure out why you decided to push him so hwahdThis shit had me fucking rolling.
>>216475261fucking hilarious revealit really is the little details that are the best
>>216471499Why is this show so popular but Royal Crackers which had the same humor style, was a dud?
>>216471499cuz it sucks past 10 minutes of it being one joke
>>216472295Friendly reminder to take your meds today.
>>216475736LYNCHED
>>216472580Dude I was dying laughing at the husband. It’s the micro stuff that the show gets spot on. It’s like hyper-real delivery mixed with absurdity, yet wholesome. The show is pretty brilliant in a subtle, simple way.
I feel bad for people who don’t enjoy this show
>>216477408Especially the look on the girls’ faces in this scene lol. People knock the shitty drawing but they don’t understand that it is a genuine style that lends to the bizarre humor of the show. The people who hate on it would prob hate on Picasso in his time because his art looks like a child drew it—they just don’t get it.
>>216478209>Pablo Picasso:>It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child.
>>216471499havent finished it yet, but its one of a sensible chuckle kind of show than lmao. smiling friends is a little more interesting but there are a handful of dud episodes and i've only seen half of them because middle of the second season i realized there were a lot more loud=funny gags, the 1 second screams. i'll finish them both at some point tho
>>216474480The two FBI agents being heckin wholesome chungus is also grating.
>>216474605Okay.
>>216471499Yeah, yeah, I'm sure. Okay, alright.
>>216478515>but its one of a sensible chuckle kind of show than lmaoI completely disagree. It is fucking hysterical at parts.
>>216474498skill issue
>>216471499>BRO WHOLESOME CHUNGUS ADULT CARTOON!!!!!
>>216472046Kek
>>216472462i look and sound and turn my head like this
Why does Tom sound like J. K. Simmons sometimes?
Dominic’s cool
>>216471499I feel like you have to be old enough to have watched Home Improvement and other 90's era sitcoms based around a family to really appreciate what the show is going for. Zoomers mostly watch 2000's and 2010's era sitcoms, if any.
>>216478802>WE NEEDS THE PRECIOUS
>>216477395dangerously based
Did anyone else get turned on by their Asian neighbor lady playing pool in like the second episode.
>>216478802Dude tell her that.Tell her she looks really good.
>>216478664https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ooqSS5SlL9owe did a great job memeing joes cappa
>>216475757first episode is the weakest of the series imo.
>>216479048What if I told you she's real?
>>216471582spbp
I had no idea who Joe Cappa was before this show. HIs older stuff is actually fucking hilarious.
>>216479120She's like some kind of dick medusa
>>216479086So damn good haha
>>216471581>I'm guessing you're a white person born between year A and year BYou really got him with that one
>>216479287Lemme give you my haircut anon
>>216477408OK WHO PUT THE BOOMBOX THERE
look, all I know is he did a bang up job raising those boys.
>>216475829Was there ever an episode 8?
>>216479930Unfortunately not
>>216471499I don't know how much validation does my opinion have on this show as an argentinian 30 year old guy (kind of like a Muslim watching Jersey's shore), but I like it. It's -very oddly- nice to watch, I mean oddly considering how atrociously ugly the art style and animation is, but I feel like that alone is one of the main things I feel comfortable about watching it, it's so ridiculously bad it's pretty hilarious. I would also say it somewhat looks like one of those [adult swim] shows you would watch on the, you know, good old real adult swim shows from the late 90's / early 00's.Common Side Effects on the other side has such an innovatively ugly art style it's almost irritating, annoying and uncomfortable to look at, especially males' faces' features, they're particularly ugly, like the small tiny mouth and eyes. You generally get used to it eventually if you watch the series consistently since the premise/plot is quite interesting. But still.Smiling Friends has only like literally three good episodes: the Desmond episode (episode 1), the first episode about Mr. Frog, and the one about Allan trying to get paper clips. Where the one about Desmond and the one about Allan, I consider them a 10/10 each. But all the rest ranges from bad to just meh (or good at best). Such a waste of potential. But it's just yet another case in that matter.Look on YouTube at videos of episodes or clips of Smiling Friends, in the comments sections. They're almost all zoomers or literal kids.
>>216471499Between this and Universal Basic Guys, we're getting a new wave of television.
>>216480107Thanks I was only asking because the 7th episode is called "Savers 1".
>>216471499It's non-Whites having no experience with upper class Whites so they can't get the overexaggerated version being presented as a joke. People who I've seen say they don't get it consistently admit they're from non-West countries. They don't know the first world so they don't get it.
>>216471499This show and the chair company have absolutely baffled me. You are telling me there are people out there laughing their ass off to that shit? I just can't picture it. Someone explain it to me. I can understand women watching reality tv and all the brain dead people watching shit like gold rush and FBI and all that so but those two shows I literally cannot imagine a single person sitting down, watching and laughing at either show
rip crockett
>>216475261This little nigga reveal had me dying
>>216471499It's just not funny.>Haha, it looks like gay fetish porn drawn in MSPaikt you'd find on DeviantArt but it's actually super milquetoast and boring, also funny voices.You can't make a show on two jokes if they aren't even very good.
>>216481576This is crazy projection, no one thinks it looks like gay fetish porn brah. You have to stop gooning
>>216481810Gooner here I'm not him I have no idea what he's on about
>>216471499>>216471581The whole bit is subversion. Then it elaborates on the bit. Then it does it all over again. Theyre good lads, theyre better and more caring than you thought!, wow, offbeat statement, more subversive dialog. Just doesnt have much substance beyond that. And the bit really isnt as funny as people who "get it" think it is
>>216471499We’re at the stage where this show is something “highbrow” that people need to “understand”. You people are fucking losers. You try to make media consumption a type of “skill” because you have no actual impressive traits as a person. Watching cartoons isn’t a form of “prowess”.
the people who will get this show and understand it are the same people who understand what's funny about On Cinema. it's hard to specifically describe what it is. it's a humor in mundane things that are treated as normal.
>>216481989that's just a projection of your insecurities. OP is being a fag like always but you don't need to be insecure about not understanding what other people like about the show. im sure there's things you like that I wouldn't understand either
>>216474964>kidi dont think he's a kid. he's black and they are white and mexican. i read it as just one of those weird groups of kinda aimless low-income 30s people where a random friend is always hanging out at their house. usually with drugs involved somehow.
>>216481995On Cinema's humor is pretty self explanatory, though. It started off as "Siskel and Ebert, but except respectable film critics it's a pair of autistic manchildren."And then it just sort of spiraled into a bunch of absurd plot arcs from there, mostly based on Tim getting caught up in various wacky schemes he tries to shoehorn into the show while Greg is a completely static autistic fuck who just wants to sperg about shitty movies no one care about.
>>216481995On cinema is wayyyyy better.Hell this show wishes it was tom goes to the mayor
why does this show cause so much butthurt on /tv/?
>>216482229because their dads didnt do a heck of a job raising them
>>216482052I don't think she's supposed to be 30 because the boys dad is clearly in his late 40s at the youngest, and she also doesn't look 30
>>216482338that's true just substitute 30s for whatever age. those kinds of people dont ever really grow or change
>>216482229Because you fags won’t stop spamming it and samefagging in it to shill it.
>>216471499i just won't watch something that looks as bad as this
>>216483015there are several samefagging shill and bot threads on the catalogue at any given time and yet you're only bothered by this one?
Never date furry girls. They're insane.
>>216482229the ones that get mad are filled with hate in their soul, they are miserable people
>>216483015>Y-YOU GUYS ARE SHILLING AND SP-SPAMMING!!my nigger, you're the one who bumped a dying thread almost a full hour after the last post.
>>216483015but enough about smiling friends, simpsons and family guy
