Assy McGee (2006–2008)
10/10
Wishing for a return of Assy.

I LOVED this show. To me this series epitomizes what I like best in dark and surreal animated comedy. It's unfortunate there were only 2 seasons. This would fit nicely in a mix of episodes of Sealab 2021, Wonder Showzen, Xavier: Renegade Angel, Metalocalypse and Superjail.

The used car lot advertisement between some segments were a nice touch. On that note i read rumours that one of the main reasons the show was cancelled was due to a lack of sponsors. Couldn't get someone like Hanes or Fruit of the Loom or Joe Boxer?

Even though I loved the whole series, if I had to pick an episode or three as favourites I'd say "Ring of Fire", "Conviction" and i guess "Irish Wake".

One of the recurring characters that I love because he's just so odd is the doctor (featured in episodes like "Ring of Fire", "The Ballad of Blind Anthony" and "Mexican Rain").

I really hope one day we'll see a return of Assy, or at the very least, a decent DVD release of the series with extras.
