Content Warning:
Part one shows clips of crude humour that include jokes that degrade people for characteristics such as appearance, race, gender, and sexuality. Brief clips are also shown of cartoon violence.
Spoiler Warning:
Part one contains minor spoilers for Archer season 3. Part two contains major spoilers for Paradise PD's plot developments in seasons 1 - 2. Part three contains minor spoilers for Fresh Meat season 3. Farzar goes unspoiled throughout all three parts. Brickleberry resets the status quo after every episode so there are no major plot developments to spoil, however several individual episodes have their stories spoiled. That being said though if you care about Brickleberry, Paradise PD, or Farzar spoilers something's gone wrong.

My conspiracy theory is that these kind of shows actually ARE for children, they are advertised as being for adults because kids like to watch stuff they're not supposed to
-
i had no idea that, with this art style, connie was SUPPOSED to be "the ugly one"
-
24:15 this joke was bad on its own but that sassy "did I say that" at the end like he actually said something clever made me feel a primal rage build inside me
-
The problem with punching bags is that it's not funny if they don't deserve it. I feel nothing but sympathy for Connie.
-
Dear Netflix: Please pay me a part-time salary to write comedies for you. I don't suppose you can do any worse than choosing a citizen of Earth at random. Sincerely, some guy on the internet

I knew an animator who worked on Brickleberry. She said talking with her supervisor on how to improve the "comedic" r*pe scene she was working on as one of the most awkward situations she'd ever been put in. She happily fled after just a few episodes to work on a braindead but non-r*pey kid's show at another studio. (As did her supervisor)
-
One thing I hate is how lazily written most adult animated shows are. They saw how successful Family Guy was and just decided: "haha swearing and violence and sex jokes = funny."
-
42:39 what kills me is that, especially compared to the rest of the montage, the line 'I would never apologise to a woman, and if that bothers you Ethel, well I apologise' actually is a tiny bit more cleverly written, but then they couldn't possibly have an almost functional joke so they have to then immediately have another character go bUt YoU jUsT dId
-
It's honestly a shame that shows like these constantly get greenlit while actual competent storytellers and animators get thrown out the window without second thought. An entire network to animation has been pretty much killed this year.
-
I love how Jimmy Jr. Pesto, an incredibly minor side character in bob's burgers, has more character than the most deep characters in all 3 of these shows.
-
Its kinda poetic that the clips Jay chose are funnier because they lack the context we would've had otherwise
-
“I’ve got it!” ‘Gonorrhea, we know’ that was so not-set-up and terrible it made me laugh, like it was an accidental anti-joke.
-
I think this is what it looks like when bullies who peaked in high school think they were actually funny when they were bullying people.
-
Probably being overly sensitive here but the “jokes” involving Connie make my skin crawl. Her characterization of being a predatory, ugly “she-beast” is exactly what my middle school bullies would constantly use to make my life a living hell. This show literally feels like what would happen if a bully got a writing job, and that alone should be a sign that it won’t hold up as a comedy at all.
-
'What is this, bullshit day?' is such a stupid, lazy line that it makes me laugh ironically everytime
-
My biggest takeaway from Jay's comedy analyses is that Archer is one of the few adult cartoons that was made by adults and not teenage boys.
-
I love when a joke is: opposite thing happens Bonus points for a character stating that the opposite thing just happened
-
I don't know how they did it, but somebody somewhere created an entire animation style that immediately tells me a show isn't worth even considering, let alone watching.
-
The thing that gets me is that if you go into the comments of Brickleberry clips, you'll see loads of comments saying how Brickleberry couldn't be made today, despite having two other copies made exactly the same way, because everything is too PC and woke. The core audience does not care about a good joke or anything clever, they just want crude offensive humor to laugh at because they get off on the idea that shows like these piss people off for being crude and offensive.
-
The thing about that 'unless he buys you two drinks' joke is that, if that's where the joke *ended*, it would actually be half-decent, but they have to drag it out into something utterly obnoxious.
