Summary: "My dad owns a Dealership dude!"
Review: Aqua Teen Hunger Force is probably one of the most bizare cartoon shows available right now, it's perhaps one of the best cartoons on television right now. ATHF Volume 3 is my favorite out of all the volumes. Volume 3 has more laughs then ever, it has some violent moments and it had the best episodes on this set man! You can't go wrong with this show.

I recommend this DVD it's loads of extras, commentary and other things that I'm too lazy to type out. If you like ATHF get this volume! Or any of them Like I did! I give this a 4 cause there's not enough episodes just like all the other DVD's. Still it's enjoyable, checka check it out you.

4 out of 5 stars

By the way the DVD menue for this is hilarous..

Summary: not incredible...sorta ok
Review: I am an enormous fan of this series and having never seen the
third set I was understandably excited by the prospect of new hijinks. Well, it wasn't that bad... It seems like the writing is starting to stretch a little thin. The jokes are the same and getting flogged to death. In my opinion there are a few episodes that are toatlly unwatchable. Stupid, but not in a good way...
Plus less episodes and some lame attempt at filler by including scripts and other non essentials. This is definitely a must for fans and I won't give up my copy, but it is the weak one of the three and I'm a little steamed that I payed full price for it.

Summary: Your G.I. Joes are going to be MIA
Review: Matt Maiellaro (Space Ghost Coast to Coast, Hell Raiser 3, and Basketcase 3) and Dave Willis (Space Ghost Coast to Coast) direct and cowrite this masterpiece. I love these shows, and cannot wait to watch every episode from season two.

Frylock is the lead character so to speak. Frylock uses his super powers the most often (at least with a purpose), is the rational character, and plays referee between Meatwad and Shake. He may be a lot of people favorite character, but he is far from the funniest.

That honor goes to Meatwad. Meatwad is a character with child like attributes. He is taken advantage of by Shake, but when describing things that he sees, wants, or Shake has done to him, it is uncontrollably funny.

Master Shake is lazy, manipulative, broke, useless, worthless, unproductive, and a pain in the butt to the rest of the characters. He usually gets everyone into trouble, and always tries to blame it on someone else. He is only funny in his interactions with Meatwad.

Frylock, Master Shake, and Meatwad are roommates; Carl is their landlord. Unfortunately for Carl, his tenants live to destroy his car, and swim in his pool (which is not such a great thing when one of your tenants is a meatball). Carl is extremely funny, with his gold necklace, and having to put up with his tenants unbelievable stories, which are true (even the things in their attick).

This show is the best cartoon on TV right now, passing South Park, and the Simpson's in my opinion. I find myself holding my stomach laughing, and I do not even get to hear the whole back and forth sequence. This show is too funny.

Grade: A

Summary: another little slice of dementia from matt and dave
Review: my friends and i like to refer to the various volumes of aqua teen hunger force based on what drugs we can best guess matt and dave were doing while they were writing. obviously a lot of pot was being smoked during the first season. following the success of episodes such as "mayhem of the mooninites" and "mc pee pants" they were most likely able to afford some seriously dank herb and as such, the volume 2 episodes were born. some bad acid seems to be the only explanation for the bizarre brand of mind-f*ck they've come up with this time around. when these episodes originally aired on adult swim i remember picking up a really dark vibe from a few of them. some of the episodes in this set border on disturbing ("broodwich," "the shaving," and some parts of "the cloning"); but of course it's all injected with the sort of warped humor dave and matt have become famous for. though lacking the wackiness of volume 1 and the depth of writing present in volume 2, volume 3 marches forward with a newfound dose of black humor and a powerful sense of a shift in direction.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Can't get enough of this funny stuff
Review: Oh Boy! Just keep making the Aqua Teen Hunger Force and all will be well. This DVD collection is a must for all ATHF fans. The extras could be more but I am not disappointed and neither will you be! Buy it now! Go on! just click "Add to Cart" you won't be disappointed!

Summary: "You can almost feel your brain exploding."
Review: One of my friends used the above quote to describe the experience of watching this show, and I wholeheartedly concur.

Sweet Jebus, I don't think a more Dadaist, random, absurd bit of programming exists on network TV. You've got man-sized talking fast food products living in a run-down surburbia--a self-aggrandizing and inept milkshake, a basket of fries with genius IQ, and an insanely cute and mildly retarded lump of hamburger meat. A trashy gold chain-wearing Jerseyite who just wants the above trio to leave him the hell alone. A pair of pixelated Atari game rejects with perpetual middle fingers, and assorted space aliens/monsters/robots of all shapes and sizes. And that is only the tip of the iceburg. It actually gets tons stranger from there. It's just... GAH.

There's seriously NOTHING in the Cartoon Network/Adult Swim roster that resembles this. Sealab 2021 and Space Ghost Coast To Coast occasionally approach this level of bent humor, but with more of a satirical angle. With its combo of absurd one-liners, pop-culture jokes, black humor, bathroom gags, bad taste tempered by pure loopiness, and plain all-out disturbing imagery, Aqua Teen stands alone.

Words cannot do this sort of thing justice. Definitely an acquired taste. If your tastes are "normal" in any way, shape, or form, you WILL run away screaming on first viewing. Only a truly warped mind will get mileage out of this postmodern insanity. By far the best and most consistent Season, #3 features the most brilliant installments ever--"The Broodwich," "The Cloning," "Spirit Journey Formation Anniversary," and ESPECIALLY "The Shaving." Hilariously disturbing, or disturbingly hilarious? You decide. Keep a sponge nearby while watching this show--it'll be useful for cleaning the gray matter off your walls.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awsome, best season yet.
Review: The first episode(The Frat Buddies), is hilarious where this drunk alien & his friend come to earth, That is one of thebest on this disk, and also The Cloning where they have to clone thier TV, and Shake keeps shooting it, anf Frylock said if you clone something too many times, you get stuff you dont want, so they clone money & George washington comes out, and they said go back to the white house, The best season yet, + the censors missed a few words, I wish I could get it uncensored, oh well, buy it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best one yet.
Review: This is the best ATHF volume yet. The episodes are just the best for some reason (except for The Last One, which I didn't laugh once at). Volume 2 just didn't have many great episodes on it. They were still good and everything, but not anything like the rest. Volume 1 was really good, but they tried too hard to stick to a plot and it have very little special features.

Well, Volume 3 is loaded with special features, including a sneak peak at how they wrote "The Cloning." Very interesting stuff. It also includes my favorite episode "The Broodwich," and a very long, yet funny, deleted scene from it (It's good that it was deleted though).

Well, 25 bucks is a lot for a dvd, especially if you're not the wealthiest guy on the block. But, this one is definately worth forking the cash.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best Out Of All 3 Volumes...my favorite things
Review: This one should be similar to my Volume 2 review. My personal favorite episode on Volume 2 is "Super Trivia" and on this one, my favs are all various. One is "Total Recarl", "The Clowning", "THE", "The Last One", and others. Not ALL of them, but many. Some episodes are violent and BLOODY. Not too bloody, but brief blood. Ya know what I mean?? Carl has to be my favorite character too. I'm bored. Just get this and like it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better than the first 2 seasons!
Review: This season has "The Broodwich" and the 2 Frat guys from space (they just happen to be two of my favorite episodes). Best season yet!
