Did I get your attention with this one? Good. One of my favorite shows is Aqua Teen Hunger Force. The show is not really full of wisdom unless you are missing a significant portion of your common sense but it's no biggie because it's funny. A talking milkshake, a box of fries, and a wad of meat. The three live in New Jersey next to a hairy, crass and generally dirty man by the name of Carl. I think Meatwad is the coolest character and sometimes he is the wisest.
While Frylock seems to have a keen scientific mind and a great deal of common sense, Meatwad has a great deal of kindness in his meaty soul. Master Shake is like the asshole that you love to hate. I like the dynamic between Meatwad and Master Shake. Master Shake is like a bully that continually tortures Meatwad because he is jealous and yet he seems to spend more time with him.
I love the way the Aqua Teens have a symbiotic relationship with Carl. Carl needs the Aqua Teens and they need him. It seems like Carl and the Aqua Teens are destined to help one another through hard times of their own creation. Yes, I just crafted an entry about a show on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim line up. I did this in order to prove that even the most insipid of shows has something behind it. Absolutely everything that requires outlandish creativity has something good behind it, remember that next time you watch some ridiculous reality TV series.
