It is a bit dry and falls flat compared to Frisky Dingo and Archer. It does have gems like Harry Goz as the clueless Captain Murphy, the sinister Sparks constantly plotting, and Erik Estrada with the CHiPs references. But yeah, you're right, for the most part, it was just okay. Back around 2000, it was unique and witty, but even back then; I still preferred Harvey Birdman.

Well even then 2000 Futurama easily surpassed it. But I loved the Show personally.

Oh, I loved Futurama back then.

I love all the shows mentioned in this thread but none of them comes close to the genius of sealab 2021.

I hear what you're saying, and it sounds like "Wah wah! My taste in cartoons sucks! I enjoy Archer and the most recent seasons of The Simpsons."

Yet, I'm on the sealab board?? What an idiot you are.. So clever, associate me with a show that has been terrible for years. Good one, really innovative. It's ok if you don't get archer, just keep crying and I'll be back when it's in it's 10th season ok?? Ohhh nvm they are doing a crossover episode with guess what show?? This one..... Yeah, wipe your mouth.. I think you still got some on your chin:)


Anyways, you sound like one of those jerks from pod 6..

i just watched the first season and the first two episodes of the 2nd season this show is fantastic i think its hilarious.

reply

Archer is literally *beep* compared to Sealab. If you don't "get it" leave.

Yeah, I get to say that because the show is over and was ended with dignity unlike everything after it.

reply

To each his own, I personally loved every episode of Sealab. It's one of the only shows that makes me laugh out loud.

I'll even go as far as saying this show paved the way for shows like Archer, and Frisky Dingo.

This is the best animated show period you pompous *beep*-face. Archer is for future gays. Have fun eating dick the rest of your life.

Wut? I think Frisky Dingo's weak! (I still watched it, however.)

I'm browsing through several videos on Adult Swim and, I must say, this show is probably the most original animated series I've come across in a long time. It's the kind of show that makes you think "how the hell did this manage to get on television?" but in a good way, if that makes sense. If I were writing for a cartoon series, this is the kind of humor I'd want to emulate, but probably wouldn't in fear of it being immediately rejected.

However, one thing I've definitely noticed is that every episode of Sealab 2021 seems to have its own personality. And that's probably why the show managed to go on several seasons before it was canceled.
