The Oblongs: The Complete Series (2005, DVD)

This is a short-lived show, but the episodes are classic, funny and definitely for adults. I was so glad to hear about the DVD! I enjoy all the episodes and watch them whenever I need a pick-me-up.

If you like Adult Swim toons, well, GOOD Adult Swim, NOT ATHF or Lucy Daughter of the Devil or any of that other gay $hit, you should like this. I guess GOOD Adult Swim should be clarified, Frisky Dingo, Venture Brothers, Morel Orel, and Robot Chicken. This show is about a family of fun loving deformed poor folk (EWW) that get by on love. Mom is a bald alcoholic slut, dad is an armless, legless horn dog. They have 3, or maybe 4, kids. The oldest kid(s) is a siamese twin, one of them is gay I'm pretty sure, the middle kid has a gimpy eye and may very well be gay as well. Last but not least, the youngest one has a growth on her head that appears to be a herpefied dong, TASTY! The series is based off of characters from a book called Creep Susie also by creator Angus Oblong. For news on upcoming appearances or a session of clowny frotting check his website. www.angusoblong.com He usually has lots of wonderful politically incorrect artwork for sale and WILL let you buy him a drink!

i love this series. i had been looking for it ofr about 6 months when i stumble across it. here on ebay. and i am a hughe fan of obscure cancelled animation, so at the price i gave it was a steal. and just rememebr "you you may control my mind... but you will never control my ass"- Milo Oblong

if you've never seen it the show is helmed by Will ferrell as the father Bob a torso and nothing more. as thi family lives what they consider t normal life living below the valley and globocide. so check it out and laugh till puke. great family fun lmao

Very funny, offbeat animated comedy. Will Ferrell does many of the voices in the show and has great range.

I love this show. It's got memorable characters, adult humor, and just...insane. Great show to make you laugh.

This is one off the funniest series i haev ever watched, if you like Futurama, Ren And Stimph or any other classics like that then get this!

Excellent job on getting it out fast! Great price and great services! Would always consider buying from ya again.

i bought it as a gift... ,Veary funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Will is awsome

The thing I like best about Angus Oblong's cartoon series is his wickedly funny adaptation of the class wars. His family, the Oblongs, are the cheerily downtrodden dregs of their society. Misshapen from exposure to toxic chemicals, the family ekes out a living while being cheated and spat on by the 'Hill people,' their more affluent neighbors on the hills above them. The Oblongs and other valley dwellers, including a brilliantly sketched cast of school-aged misfits, must cope with their poverty, and do so by supporting one another (frequently with far more moral understanding than the obnoxious Hill people) and a series of funny, if ill-fated, pranks.

Bob Oblong, the father, is voiced to all his delusionally cheerful glory by SNL's Will Ferrell. His wife, Pickles, a hard-drinking stay-at-home mom (unless she's at the bar) is voiced by Jean Smart. Biff & Chip, conjoined, seventeen-year-old twins sharing three legs and three butt cheeks, are the next oldest Oblongs. Milo, arguably the main character of the show, a 'pathologically high-spirited' eight-year-old child with a perma-squint, is voiced by Pamela Segal Aldon (of King of the Hill.) The youngest, a sweet-voiced waif with a huge, warty growth on her head is Beth, voiced by Jeannie Ellias.

For all the offensive content, and this is offensive, the show delievers a hilarious, superbly typified example of subversive class-warfare. It's visually fun, satirical and intellectually satisfying.

And Pickles falls down drunk a lot, which is a bonus. How could you hate a show with an episode devoted to Velva, a satrical mock of Zena, with the attendant sex jokes?

A friend turned me on to this twisted series, and once I viewed it I decided I must have a copy to call my own. I purchased this copy on eBay and was not disappointed. The Oblongs, a bizarre anime series created by a guy whose name really is "Oblong," is about the lives of a family affected by the toxic effluent from a chen=mical factory. The stories address social class issues in a hilarious yet scathing way, and the characters are compellingly weird but relevant. The Oblongs have no reverence and have fun with everything. No sacred cows here! A wonderful romp through political incorrectness.

The Oblongs is THE BEST SHOW EVER!
