Maldron Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Ignoring the entirety of season one and being selective about season two, Moral Orel is one of the best fucking shows I've ever seen. Starting with the two part finale of season two, Nature, and the entirety of season three, the entire thing became a dark comedy about American status-quo, alcoholism, and parents. Hell, I'd hesitate to even call it comedy, it was a peerless drama about one of the most fucked-up families I've ever seen and how their being fucked up messed up a well-meaning, perfectly innocent kid, and how the kid started to learn to grow out of their advice. The show definitely started out weak, but it finished strong. I saw in the "favorite adult swim" post that it had also stopped people cold, and I can't blame them. I gave up on the show too soon, and it was only being too lazy to change the channel that brought me back to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reverend Jax Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 That's definitely not the same show I remember deciding to not watch anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maldron Posted April 7, 2010 Author Share Posted April 7, 2010 That's definitely not the same show I remember deciding to not watch anymore. Yeah, I had the same feeling. If they had started with this stuff instead, if they had been this from the beginning, the show might still be around. I know I never gave the show a fair shake simply because I had been so turned off by season one. I'm sure that's why season two's ratings forced adult swim to cancel, though I'm definitely glad they allowed this final season to be made. But season one was absolute shit. They shot themselves in the arm with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalHeart Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Cj and I always dug the show. I need to see the newer stuff now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iambaytor Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 That seems to be the way of Adult Swim shows, the few that move away from the "Random LOLZ" mode of humor that Adult Swim has become so fond of tend to be the best. Metalocalypse and The Venture Brothers both did this and were far better for it, it kind of amazes me that Moral Orel of all shows managed this as well.

Jables Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Start on the end of Season 2 you say? I bought season 1 sight unseen and soon regretted it, I don't think it otherwise has had any distribution in Oz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't out on DVD for a while yet anyway. The thing about Nature is that it starts like traditional Moral Orel and then just... changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
