Squidbillies (2005)

Bring back Unknown Hinson! This is AWFUL!

I have been a HUGE fan of squidbillies from the FIRST EPISODE. I watched it through high school, through adulthood. It's always been my favorite. Me and my husband also have Early tattoos if that tells you anything. We are from Tennessee, born and raised in the South and this show was always so funny and just the perfect show to just laugh and get away for a little bit. But now? It's absolutely terrible. No offense to him, but Tracy Morgan does not and will never, ever, EVER fit the character of Early. It sounds like a joke. When I first heard his voice, I thought it was a joke for the show. And when I looked into everything I couldn't believe it. Early was the show. He is why people watch(ed) and love(d) it so much. Tracy Morgans personality, voice, accent, all of it is wrong. It doesn't fit. It doesn't work and is completely terrible. And whoever decided this would be a good option should be mentally evaluated. I am so upset and disappointed. Yes, it's a cartoon. But it's one of those things that brings me back, me and my husband used to sit together in high school and laugh and laugh at this, and still did all these years later. Until now. Just bc Unknown Hinson voiced opinions that may not be agreed with, or aren't the prettiest doesn't mean he should be eliminated as this character. Isn't that part of the reason he fit so well with the Early character? Because it was pretty much him in squid form. And isn't that why we are supposed to have free speech? I say cancel it if Tracy Morgan is going to be the only option. It's like putting Snoop Dogg or Ludacris as Hank or Bobby on King of the Hill, or Larry the Cable guy on Boondocks... they don't fit that character.. plain and simple.
