TripTank

OK I love comedy I love female comedy male comedy animated comedy real life comedy I even love skit comedy bit this however is nt funny in the least 'I have only seen one episode but it told me all I needed to know 'this show is repulsive this show is gruesome this show is NOT FOR CHILDREN' and in my opinion isn't very funny I may have laughed once and I have loved other comedy central shows 'broad city the daily show'' even without john stuart and workaholics' this just isn't for me sorry if I offend anyone but definitely not my cup of tea

I may be too hung up on trying to understand things, but Triptank is just a mess of half baked animated shorts that has no cohesive thing that keeps it together. It relies way too heavily on bloody/dismemberment gags and way too little on funny set ups or clever writing. I watch it and think of someone stitching together some of the more mediocre stuff produced as student projects at some animators' school. It's not ready for prime time. Are you listening, whoever organizes this show? Watch a few seasons of Robot Chicken, and then make your best effort at a knock off of that show, you know, a show with humor. And Comedy Central, you don't need to grab just any animated creation. Granted a duo like Parker and Stone don't come along too often, but there must be better animated shows available to air.

This show is a hodgepodge of different styles and sensibilities and as such, it's a mixed bag. At its worst, the sketches are too reliant on shock humour and can sometimes miss the mark but there is still some good writing here and it's a cool show to look at due to the range of different animation styles on show.

Overall, TripTank is a decent representation of internet cartoons with the same foul humour and general abrasiveness that once couldn't work on television now finally getting it's chance to be seen by a wider audience. It's giving talented people the opportunity to make a living as well as the chance to work with some of the best voice actors in the business who they probably otherwise wouldn't get the chance to work with. So for that, I give Comedy Central a pat on the back and hope they can continue to give their animators greater creative freedom come season two.

If youre over the age of 20 and looking for animation thats actually funny and not just attempting to be nonsensical or "shocking" to middle schooler's there are plenty of better options like Monkey Dust or better yet just watch some late 90s Adult Swim fare before they quit doing animation and started doing dumb live-action spoof shows and this terrible unfunny animation. Those of you entertained by drivel like Bojack Horseman will eat this right up and think its great, those of you with actual taste and viewing standards not so much, if you are going to bother i suggest consuming copious amounts of trendy chemical amusements before wading into this garbage pile of soundbites and poorly drawn animation. I got three whole episodes in before i just had to turn it off as i found it almost insulting just how unfunny the show is as a whole.

Well, this is far ahead of Robot Chicken at least, which seemed way too intelligent and boring after watching a couple of episodes of TripTank. Most of sketches are insanely fun, variety of animation styles used is freaking astonishing. I don't see any reason people don't like it besides they just can't get how amazingly it is done. Honestly, I never seen anything like that before. Every episode makes me wonder how on Earth can creators have fantasy like this and maintain a kind of story line (well, actually a lot of) through all the flick at the same time. This show is on top of favorites list among my closest friends, and it's for a reason. I achieve that level of creativity only on massive dosages of acid. Unbelievable. The humour can be considered rude and inappropriate, but it's the way it's been designed, so don't ever complain if you found this show being "too much" for you. If you don't like black comedy, you should avoid watching it by any means, otherwise you must see that flow of twisted fantasy you'll never find elsewhere. If you consider those series stupid and for "stoned schoolboys", then you are probably the one or just didn't get the idea. This show is not for all, and obviously not for people with lower IQ, despite you can think exactly of opposite.
