History YMMV / HeilHoneyImHome

* CrossesTheLineTwice: When the premise of your show is doing a standard '50s sitcom starring Adolf Hitler, you're bound to crossing several lines.

* ValuesDissonance: A big factor in its cancellation, as its comedic take on Hitler's Nazi Germany, with Hitler featured as the ''protagonist'' led to its crucifixion from viewers almost immediately after it aired. These days, satire of Nazism is nowhere near as controversial as it was at the time.

* AcceptableTargets: Hitler and Jews.

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Was the show really a [[FailureGambit successful attempt]] at a SpringtimeForHitler?

** Hitler answering the phone in the pilot: “Hello, Hitler speaking. No, ''Bob'' Hitler. Who do you think?!?”

* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mb7ISG8VKgY These clips from un-aired episodes]] (actually shown among bit from other shows that Gareth Marks, who played 'Arny Goldenstein' did). If you like broad comedy, these bits from ''Heil Honey'' are actually pretty good.

* BrokenBase: Viewers are split over whether it was a crass and tasteless insult to the victims of Nazism, a legitimately intelligent satire of Nazism a la ''Film/TheProducers'' or simply just a bland comedy show, which parodies 50s sitcom elements.

* CrossesTheLineTwice: While most people saw it as a terrible attempt at shock humor for the sake of shocking, some people have found it to be a genuinely funny concept that people overreacted to.

** Given that the intention and premise is virtually the same (only with a different head of state), you could consider this show a spiritual predecessor to ''Series/ThatsMyBush''.

* {{Narm}}: A lot of it intentional, parodying the cliches of typical American sitcoms of the 1950s. Of course, some of it ''was'' unintended.

* FashionVictimVillain: Hitler appearing a ''plaid sweater vest''.

* AcceptableTargets: Hitler and Jews, duh.

* BileFascination: The fact that someone actually attempted this premise definitely warrants it.
* BrokenBase: Viewers are split over whether it was a crass and tasteless insult to the victims of Nazism, a legitimately intelligent satire of Nazism a la ''Film/TheProducers'' or simply a dull, bland sitcom not made funny by having Hitler as the protagonist.
* CrossesTheLineTwice: Your reaction will likely be either of these. Was it a genuinely funny concept that people overreacted to, or a terrible attempt at shock humor for the sake of shocking?

** The idea of a sitcom featuring Hitler seems to be a precursor to the ''WebVideo/HitlerRants'' videos, where Hitler is usually depicted in modern-day scenarios with his cast from ''Film/{{Downfall}}''. And it received much better reception due to [[CatharsisFactor a heavy emphasis on Hitler's rage and suffering he has to endure]].
* {{Narm}}: A lot of it intentional, parodying the cliches of typical American sitcoms of the 1950s; needless to say, its uniquely unappealing premise led to this trope being played far too straight.

* AudienceAlienatingPremise: Must we repeat ourselves? It's a sitcom with the most infamous dictator in history as the protagonist. No wonder it lasted just a few episodes.
* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: Neville Chamberlain singing "I'm a Little Teapot". ''Yes, really''.

-->'''Brad Jones''': Oh nice sweater, Adolf. It's true what they say. Whenever you put Hitler in a nice suit, ''he's still fucking Adolf Hitler''.
