Synopsis

TV series about the life of Brendon Small, an eight-year-old visionary who, using his friends Jason and Melissa as actors, have managed to direct over a thousand homemade films. His parents are divorced, but it doesn't feel strange since so many other kids' parents are divorced. His friend Jason actually feels upset because his parents are still together. At school, he is taught soccer by his coach John McGuirk, or as he calls him, "that weird Irish guy".

Reviews

ScoobyWell Great visuals, story delivers no surprises
Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.
Iseerphia All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.
filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Raju Koni The best animation characters and story lines ever. The subtle comedy and at times sarcasm and innuendos are terrific! I am planning to buy the entire season as soon as I graduate. All the voice overs for each character is just so perfect. I recommend this show to everyone who likes smart yet absolutely cute comedy. I love having home movies running on my laptop as I study or write. The lead characters (Brendon, Jason and Melissa) are of course my favorite, but so is Paula! Coach McGuirk scares me (in a funny way) cause he is so messed up! Fenton gets me! Bottom line...I love home movies! Thumbs up to HOME MOVIES!!!
draft_dodger22 it simply does not get better then this show. it has every great classic/modern element of sitcoms, comparable too every show you love. it is just a perfect show. from the writing to the voice acting to the characters to the animation. the subtle things in this show are what make it so great, the things that seem incomplete yet make the show what it is. a lot of people just don't "get" this show because it is so well-plotted out. the best show on adult swim next to tim and eric awesome show great job! the most underrated show as well. the beginning of brenden small, also him at his best. do not pass on this show, if you get the chance, watch it and examine it to your fullest ability, if you have good taste you will realize how good it truly is!
tommypezmaster Home Movies was a Soup to Nuts production, released through Shout Factory and was originally intended to be shown on UPN after Dilbert & ended with on 5 or 6. Eventually, like most other IFC like cartoons, after a few years they found their way back to TV. Although only 4 seasons were made, this was a fun cartoon and when put with other Adult Swim cartoons which had a similar look, most notabley Futurama and Family Guy, made for a good 30 minute weeknight after Cartoon network show that the whole family could enjoy.Overall, these were good, clever cartoons that remain pretty fresh and watchable today. It's a shame there weren't more made.
doctorgonzo23 Although, like many of the posters here, my girlfriend thinks this is the worst show on TV, I can't get enough of it. We get it every night here on teletoon. It does take a bit of getting used to as the show is dialogue based, but it is easily as clever as anything you will see on any episode of Sienfeld. The producer/writer must be a big movie buff as well, because the movies Brendan makes are often parodies of famous movies. There's a lot to enjoy about this show. Why people are so down on it, I'll never know. I say, give it a chance. The early episodes, shot in "squiggle vision" are actually funnier than the newer ones. The animation does take a bit of getting used to, but I don't feel it detracts from the basic genius of the writing.
