Most overrated and Most Underrated AS Original

[Daffy Dork]

Overrated: Robot Chicken. It's a pretty funny show, but most of the Time it just flops, The pacing is awful and It focuses too much on Adult Humor than to have any real humor. It's that sorta haha they made fun of this show and then the famous person died and there was sex gags and holy crap, I can't believe they did that humor. Some sketches are hilarious, but when they're not, I just feel bored.

Underrated: Tom Goes to the Mayor. Everyone seems to hate this show, but i think it's a work of pure genius and has become my third fav. adult swim show. The dialogue is Brilliantly Improvised, The plots are fun, and You gotta love that wacky Mayor! I think The main turnoff for most people is the Animation, but since when did you watch AS for the animation (Venture Bros. aside) Just rewatch the eps. and soon you will realize it's genius!

I'd have to agree with you on both of those. Why would people hate Tom goes to the Mayor? I mean, it's Bob Odenkirk! And Micheal Ian Black stars as an equally wacky relative of the Mayor.

I second what you've said for the exact same reasons.

I don't HATE Robot Chicken. It's just mediocre and gets some of the highest ratings on the block.

I do LOVE Tom for the weirdness, the improvisation, the akward pauses, and of course the Odenkirk.

I hate both those shows, The Brak show is defeinetly one that is underrated.

[Classic Speedy]

I don't really like Robot Chicken either. Every episode that I've watched, I barely laugh at all.

I agree

I agree that Tom Goes to the Mayor is the most underrated, but the most overrated would have to be Inuyasha. The size of it's fanbase definitely doesn't show the quality of the work which is crap. I could have taken the plot and made it ten times better with no experience. :|
I'll forgive Takahashi for Inuyasha though because of Ranma 1/2. >.>

[Chrono1995]

Tom has definitely grown on me, and I've now realized the humor in the absurdity around the mayor. It's still a flawed show (too many pauses) but it has more laughs in it than I previously thought. Definitely underrated in my book.

I don't really have a pick for "overrated" since most AS originals' prime moments outweigh their falls. If I had to pick, I'd go with Sealab 2021.

Inuyasha isn't an original, it's anime...

Overrated original... hmmm... probably Sealab 2021. I just never found it funny.

Underrated... I guess I'll go with The Brak Show unless Home Movies counts.

Forgive me for not reading through the entire title. -_-' I tend to do that a lot.

Anyway then, most overrated original would be Robot Chicken.

[Zyzzybalubah]

You got it down Daffy Dork. I honestly don't get why Robot Chicken is a huge ratings hit and why most people hate the hell out of Tom. Brak is a good runner-up for underrated show as it was good the first two seasons at least, whereas the last season mostly sucked except for the halloween episode and the last episode, IMO. Only other overrated original I could say is Birdman, because it's one of the more popular shows but I actually prefer Sealab and Space Ghost to it. Don't get me wrong though, I do like Birdman a lot though.

[Aaron_bhkk]

I'm yet another who agrees with the original post.

Of the originals?

The Toonzone list:

Most Overrated: Space Ghost, I guess I came on at the bad part of its run but what I saw of it wasn't funny at all. (Baffler Meal was good though)

Most Underrated: Probably, Stroker and Hoop, it honestly isn't that bad people.

General Public:

Most Overrated: Robot Chicken, It and Aqua Teens are the only ASOs that have really gotten any recognition in the general public and Aqua Teens had about three good seasons worth of episodes atleast. (the first half of season 1 and last half of season 4 went from okay to horrible)

Most Underrated: The Venture Brothers, in real life I have only been able to find one person who even knows the show exists and he deemed it to be "okay."

[Sr.Infierno]

Inuyasha isn't an original, it's anime...

Even though, it's still them most overrated show on the entire network. I think everyone can agree with me on that

The first season was awesome. I remember loving it back in 2002/3

It fell to mediocrity so quickly

I watched in on AS then I downloaded the later episodes,it just got dumber and dumber for me.

[Sr.Infierno]

I hear the comics are better, but that's probably not saying much

I personaly wouldn't even bother,and the thing I hate most about that show is the character designs, there very sterotypical of anime ,the men look like fruits and the woman don't look that good either.
