IslandGuru Who payed the critics
Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.
Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
ritonobono After hearing that this was created by Adam de la Pena. I decided to give it a chance, and it let me down dearly. I don't get offended by racist humor and I am usually optimistic when I start a TV show. And I think shows like Aqua Teen Hunger Force and Squidbillies have sub-par animation and are still funny. This one got the sub-par animation thing down, but it forgot to add one thing that made the shows I mentioned above successful and entertaining, good jokes. The series lacks in that particular department as most of the jokes are flat, uninspired and just plain unfitting.Overall, Minoriteam is a brainless, toothless, atrocity and is better off left untouched. I'm glad de la Pena came back with the funny, but short lived Code Monkeys.
funnycomedylover This is terrible, tying Ghost In The Shell:2nd Gig and Tom Goes To The Mayor as the worst Williams Street show EVER. It's boring, terrible to look at, and it just DRAGS on and on and on forever while a funny show like Metalocalpyse feels like 5 minutes for a 11-minute show. It SHOULD BE 22 minutes but that's just another error for Williams Street.What's even worse is that a lot of people are watching this. An Adult Swim bump covering the ratings for the first week of Peewee's Playhouse revealed that the show is second to only Family Guy on a Thursday. GASP. WTF??? This doesn't even signify the ending of bad Adult Swim shows. Coming up next is Assy McGee in November. McGee looks like it only has ONE joke to it and it's developed by Jon Benjamin, who gave voice to the best character, Coach McGuirk, and then there's Frisky Dingo, that's another story.BOTTOM LINE: Minoriteam is a lazy, dull show that tries to be offensive but just winds up to be a chore to watch. You're better off watching what's after it, Moral Orel.
PinkFloyd7900 Most shows on the program are decent, some even really good. However, there has to be at least one crap show. It turns out to be "Minoriteam." The show is a parody of the Justice League, and uses stereotypes to give each member its power. However, jokes get old, and plots are meaningless and boring. Also, when I say it gets "old" and "boring," I mean that you will most likely turn the channel within a few minutes of watching it. Stereotypes are sometimes even "made-up" within the show, and make no sense at all. Think of it as the un-funny cousin of "South Park." In fact, it may be the worst adult cartoon ever made. Now that's hitting a new low.This may be a short review, but I'm warning you, don't watch it. It's a waste of time.
rcp_90 Let me begin by stating that I'm hardcore adult swim viewer, I live for the comedy lineup. Hell, I even find delight in watching 12oz Mouse. But I can't bring myself to enjoy this crap.A show about that lampoons racism? I'm not sure why Adult Swim needed another one of these shows, because in my humble opinion The Boondocks already does an amazing job of that. And, on top of that, they don't even attack racism in an entertaining or new way. It's basically a 12 minute long cartoon version of "Mind of Mencia" (which is a bad thing by the way) See, the show would be a lot better if it was witty. But guess what, it isn't! The "humor" is derived from what at least sounds like white people imitating various minorities. If I wanted to hear that I'd ask my friend to imitate a Chinese guy. They basically take poorly derived characters that have no depth to them at all, and make them act stereotypical. And then there's villains who on paper are awesome ideas, but are just one dropped ball after another. You'd think it would be funny, you really would, but it's miserable.Unfortunately there's nothing that I can dillute myself into liking about this show. I can't even bring myself to dwell on this piece of flaming crap anymore. At the very most, 2/10.
