Have You Seen “Squidbillies”?
“Squidbillies” is an animated television series produced by Williams Street Studios for the Adult Swim programming block of Cartoon Network. The animation is done by Radical Axis, with background design by Ben Prisk.
It was created and is written by Dave Willis of Aqua Teen Hunger Force fame and Jim Fortier, with whom he’d previously worked on Space Ghost Coast to Coast. The show revolves around a family of anthropomorphic hillbilly squids—The Cuyler family—who live in the north Georgia mountains in poverty.
The series has been renewed for a third season of 20 episodes, which began airing and being uploaded to iTunes on January 20, 2008. You can catch reruns of “Squidbillies” in Adult Swim or purchase the season one DVD set (like I did) to catch the episodes you missed.
Not only is this show crass, nasty and warped, but it is downright hilarious and laugh-out-loud funny. Watch an episode of the subversive, brilliant and funny animated show below:
