In Reply to: The Clerks cartoon kinda sucked, really posted by AsianPersuasion on October 20, 2003 at 20:33:59:
I agree with you. CTAS had a few moments, but other than that, it really did suck. I hadn't thought about the commentary offending anyone before, but I can see how it would. I'm sure you know that Kev and the others didn't really mean anything by it. They were imitating the animators themselves after all. But then, they were doing those asian stereotype voices. You know the dudes aren't racist. They probably just weren't thinking about it. You bring up a good point.
: Clerks: the Animated Series was just one long in-joke that wasn't all that funny in the first place (minus Charles Barkley, but there's only so many times you can go to the well). What makes it worse was that the commentary... well, I'm Korean, see. And, as such, these foolish fucks went on endlessly and I'd basically like to slap the shit out of most of the people on the commentary.
: Family Guy ruled over all... Simpsons included.
: Give it time and I think the show will end up getting new episodes.
: Other cartoons much funnier than Clerks: The Cartoon were "Clone High," "Futurama," and "Undergrads." I'm sure there's more (like, say, "The Critic"), but I'd rather not go on about it.
