Ununnilium: Pulled out:
- Mr. Meaty is marketed basically as a kiddie version of Beavis and Butthead. Throw in some puppets, a little Good Burger, and plenty of Totally Radical along with it and it sounds about right.
Firstly, Beavis And Butthead isn't a Gag Series; secondly, from what I've seen, it seems like a slightly-zanier-than-usual Work Com.
Later: Is being called a Gag Series really a criticism?
osh: Not really, unless the show isn't deliberately going for it. Most of the examples given do.
Ununnilium: Pulling out:
- Teen Titans (to the chargrin of some viewers, the creators openly dismissed the critism by citing the fact that they designed it for kids)
...because... well, it's not a Gag Series. It's a comedy/action series that's sillier than most.
Salmo I removed "The Venture Bros.". It doesn't fit the definition even slightly.
Getty Le Fou: Does FLCL really qualify? I mean, it's surreal, yeah, but I'm not so sure it's a gag series.
