another one of those

>dude im so deep and depressed fuck god lmao

"comedy" cartoons

Depicts depression better than Bojack and doesnt have it's head up its own ass

redditcore

>ive never seen this show

>That season finale

Completely wrecked me, pretty great show imo and I liked it even more when I learned Charlie Kaufman worked on it

Orel is a naive yet good-willed protagonist surrounded by degeneracy that he can't escape, resulting in a series of comedic misunderstandings.

8/10 pretty good

Flawed and unfocused masterpiece. Put me off eggs for a while.

I don't know what show you're watching user, they're pretty spot on.

Explain to me what redditcore means please

A redditor like yourself should understand just fine.

Everything I disagree or hate

i love this show. It parodied religious culture in america with out coming off has preachy or just HURR DURR christians are dumb. Orel is the perfect example of the naive views we all have as a child just turned to the most extreme. God damn i would kill for this to get put on netflix or something.

>that episode where everything started to go wrong.

Fuck those last few episodes really got me I think I'm gonna rewatch it soon.

This is the product of someone who never outgrew their edgy teen phase.

>Alcohol doesn't change your father into a different person, that's just his true nature coming out
And then the sobbing in the hallway that instantly stops the moment she sees Clay

This post is the product of a NEET with no life experience.

>that entire build up towards the hunting day.
>that episode where the nurse was so damaged she turned to her doll for comfort.
I cried multiple times throughout the show just feeling so bad for these characters. Fucking hell.

Exactly. I love that the message isn't that religion is awful, but that people use religion to do or excuse awfuls things. Also the fact that it could make me want to laugh and cry at the same time was great. Some of the episodes were so fucked up.

Also last time I checked it's all on Hulu. I rewatch every once in a while.

I AM DROWNING

Sorry we offended you, oh Mature One.
Please tell us what we must do to be as sophisticated as you.

I was surprised to find out this was a real song not made for the show. It fit so perfectly.

In the end, everything worked out. Morel grew up to be happy and his parents, who deserved one another, grew old together.

;_;

It's from the genius Harmon crew, so of course it's good. Dino is pretty funny, whenever he goes on Harmontown he always says "nigger."

You getting so triggered only confirms how accurate he was in summing you up.

>He replied therefore I won :^)

But oh Mature One must tell use how to be a superior intellectual like him.
We must know.

Am I crazy, or did the animated Batman series have this same exact theme in one of their episodes?

Well you're probably not crazy but you're not correct either

You're only strengthening your case

I don't know, the only episode I can remember even remotely like that was the one about an actress with some condition that stopped her from aging and got famous playing the kid on some sitcom but because she looked like a child she couldn't get any work after the show ended and went nuts and kidnapped the cast of the show and held them prisoner on the old set so they could live the show forever or something like that

I empathized with Clay.

I know we're strengthening our case, you seem pretty mad.

He literally was not at fault.

Actually the thing I'm thinking of did have a broken adult playing with dolls.

Only there was no sex involved.

Or was there?

Me too

The pain. Of you. Day in, day out, being there. With that face. Not knowing what to say. Not caring anymore. Not even knowing that you'll probably only care about her when it's finally too late. Forgetting about all those desperate- those desperate years you spent alone, your barren years when no woman would even consider resting her tired head on your shaky little shoulder. Stinking of belly semen. Why even wipe? And when you finally get one of these [Points at Dolly and imitates a fanfare] coveted pieces of tail that have been built up as the grand trophy in your nothing life, you try desperately to keep it. Not to protect it! But to hoard it. To keep it away from the other wolves and jackals circling your territory! And you realize, all too soon, that you're not good enough! That maybe there was a jerk-off called Darwin after all. And that you never acknowledged his existence because you knew deep inside that you were really what you feared you were-- weak. And passive. And ultimately, broken by the ones who were made the fittest. And that through your weaknesses, you built up a poison that poisoned others around you. [About to cry] That you love. And the only true justice was to let those dominant jackals feed on you. Survive off you.

This was it.

Thanks bud.

That fucking ending holy shit.

I read somewhere he was depressed as well when he read that line.

correct if im wrong but isnt only the first season kind of fedora tipish? doesnt the second and third go more about the characters and get real fucked up?

Not everything about atheism is bad, user.

It's not fedora at all really, it just starts with everyone as a hypocrite and the christianity stuff is more a means to an end

by "fedora tippish" do you mean it satirizes organized religion? Because yes, it does do that a bit more heavily in the beginning.

It's worth going into it with an open mind instead of just writing it off as neckbeard fodder.

It's really not neckbeard atheist trash. Yes, it heavily satirizes religious fundamentalism, but orel is left as a character that practices what he preaches and is a pure incorruptible character.

I don't think this show had a pro-atheism message.

It was more like an anti-religious fanaticism message.

> I love that the message isn't that religion is awful, but that people use religion to do or excuse awfuls things
I miss the time when it was PC to be honest about religion.
It is Islam
It is Christianity
It is Judaism
Ideologies that promote fanatism and over attachment are inherently toxic.

>It was more like an anti-religious fanaticism message.
Bingo. It's not saying religion is bad, but taking it to a fundamentalist level is bad.

ive seen it through once but that was a while ago i was jokingly using the fedora tip

Man I wish the rest of Sup Forums could have discussions like this.

Sadly, I think this point was lost on a lot of people.

Orel's growth as a character is a direct representation of that. While there are obvious good parts to following a religion, he sees the destruction that religious fundamentalism has on his town and his family, and does whatever it takes to not be a part of it as he grows up.

Interestingly, there's another character that grows in a similar way: Reverend Putty, who's last few sermons pontificate of the benefits of a religion when adopted into heart, and not enacted in anger.

i recall an ending with orel becoming a well adjusted adult despite his shit parents was that ending before or after this one?

Coming from a really religious family it was both kind of funny and really depressing in a way.

Really one of those shows that stick with me and I've only seen like 5 episodes over the years. It was a great show though. Damn good writing.

It's an over the top religious parody that somehow manages to stop joking and give depth to its characters and become a real exploration of the dangers of dogma and depression against faith and a moral compass.

It's pretty great.

season finale was him becoming well adjusted, this was near the beginning of season 3 I believe

After, the ending you're describing is the series ending

>Kaufman

What other kino has this guy made?

Cartoonkino

The first half of season 3 was what was happening before that ill fated nature episode.

>i recall an ending with orel becoming a well adjusted adult despite his shit parents was that ending before or after this one?
that's the series finale

I remember this too.

It shows Orel and his wife happily opening Christmas presents with their children as the camera slowly pans out.

These are 11 minute episodes, right? If so the whole series is only like 9 hours long. Might marathon it at work this week.

This has been a nice thread anons, nice to see some level headed discussion on here once in a while.

The creators daughter actually said that to him years ago and ended up in the show because it stuck with him all his life

He only gave an anecdote for an episode that Dino did and Kaufman had no idea he used it until he looked at his iMDB page

>Being John Malkovich
>Eternal Sunshine of A Spotless Mind

I probably should have spoilered that.

Goddamn, that cut deep.

Quality shows bring quality discussion

cmon man don't give them their (You)s, that's what feeds their bullshit.

He drinks a lot. I think he was drunk during his rant.

don't count out Sealab

Fuck, I haven't watched since around that time. Please tell me Venture Brothers is still on occasionally. That was my go-to.

12oz Mouse was fucking awful.

I'm just glad that they've kept making Venture Bros. Even though it's basically the Doc Martin of cartoons and I doubt it gets many new viewers at this point.

If you don't take it seriously, superjail is a blast to watch, especially season 1.

Season six premiered this year, and they are going to make a seventh.

adultswim.com/videos/streams/the-venture-bros

Streaming everything from the pilot to everything and gargantua 2 which was the special that started season 6 on a loop all day every day

The end of that prequel special, Beforel Orel, was pretty sad too. Always forget that even exists.

>Explain to me what redditcore means please
“reddit” is a term co-opted for use as a meaningless pejorative in order to vaguely call someone else’s authenticity into question and, by extension, claim authenticity for yourself.

It serves no conversational function and imparts no information, save for indicating the opinions and preferences of the speaker.

Meanwhile, a market myth has sprung up around the term, as well as a cultural bogeyman consisting of elusive white 20-somethings who wear certain clothes (but no one will agree on what), listen to certain music (no one can agree on this either), and act a certain way (you’ve probably sensed the pattern on your own).

You can’t define what “that kind of behavior or fashion or lifestyle” actually is, nor will you ever be able to. That’s because you don’t use “reddit” to describe an actual group of people, but to describe a fictional stereotype that is an outlet for literally anything that annoys you.

The twist, of course, is that if it weren’t for your own insecurities, nothing that a “redditor” could do or wear would ever affect you emotionally. But you are insecure about your own authenticity - “Do I wear what I wear because I want to? Do I listen to my music because I truly like it? I’m certainly not like those filthy redditors!” - so you project those feelings.

Suffice it to say, no one self-identifies as reddit; the term is always applied to an Other, to separate the authentic Us from the inauthentic, “ironic” Them.
