Title: Ugly Americans

Take New York City, add every horrifying beast, science-fiction freak, and fantasy faerie, shake thoroughly, and you've got UGLY AMERICANS. This animated horror-comedy series follows one Mark Lilly, social worker at the Department of Integration, as he helps new citizens both human and "other" adapt to hectic life in the Big Apple.

There are easier tasks than weaning vampires off of blood, socializing land-whales, and housebreaking werewolves, but Mark is up to the challenge. Between his stressful job, a zombie roommate, and a demon ex-girlfriend, Mark's lucky if he can sneak in a few minutes of sleep. But who can sleep when there's a drop-dead gorgeous Mermaid sitting at the bar?

Check out some clips from the new show Ugly Americans (http://www.comedycentral.com/shows/ugly_americans/index.jhtml). I enjoyed the Christ Ange (http://www.comedycentral.com/videos/index.jhtml?videoId=267642&title=preview-christ-angel)l one, myself. Since I don't have cable I didn't see it, but it premiered last night/earlier tonight.

it will probably be on hulu pretty soon, and at the very least more clips on the comedy central web site, but they tend to break things up quite a bit. i'm excited to see more of it.

wow, i don't think anyone's every successfully used that "table" format before. that's very impressive, i'll be sure to use it sometime, congrats if it wasn't a mistake.

unfortunately that's the only positive thing i can say about your post. the christ angel clip was fucking putrid and worthless as anything that has come out of this "random is funny" revolution in comedy, the trailer even worse. another piece of shit show i will never watch, i only pray that it doesn't take off with retards cos i am getting close to just writing off an entire generation's sense of humour with this pathetic excuse for comedy.

Other than that clip, I've seen nothing from this show.  But Augenblick has at least proven they're capable of some high quality stuff, made totally evident by Superjail (http://video.adultswim.com/superjail/dont-be-a-negaton.html), one of the greatest [as] originals (or at least one of my favorites).

Some of the worst stuff I have ever seen.  Hate it more than family guy.
