ADVENTURE!

The Marvelous Misadvetures of Flapjack, Cartoon network. Its the best new cartoon on TV. The humor is random, the character design is wonderful and combined with THESE little guys (and their kickass soundtrack):

    I am so happy that Cartoon Network got some quality back. It was getting rough there, but both of those shows are awesome.

    Flapjack terrifies me. I haven't been this scared watching a cartoon since the time Harley and Poison Ivy lived together and did lesbian stuff

    I caught this for the first time last weekend. It gave me a spongebob/Ren and Stimpy vibe which is a good thing. I caught the episode with the mechanical genie who was obviously voiced by the same guy who did Brain.

    I wwas just watching me some Flapjack OnDemand.

    I'd say it's pretty funny, but the humor definitely has a disturbing tinge to it. The art is rather ... it's not necessarily pretty and takes getting used to. Some of the facial expressions are outright gruesome and morbid - it's peculiar that they can incite laughs (as nervous and horrified as they may be) at all.

    Oh, the ep.s I saw were where Flapjack got a haircut and K'nuckles fell for his reflection.

    Chowder is just openly adorable

    but Flapjack is sinister because the tone of the show is sinister. Someone is always being swindled.

    Flapjack's world is so dirty and vile he's so nice and naive; the colors they used for him are brighter than that of the backgrounds or other characters (who's pallets have been desaturated).

    Oh, one of the creators of the show has a dA: http://thurop.deviantart.com/

    pretty interesting stuff.

    Paul Reubens was originally selected to be the voice of Flapjack, but when Reubens did not show up on the day of recording, Van Orman himself decided to voice Flapjack.[2]

    man, peewee fucking herman doing the voice would have made the show alot creepier
    particularly when flapjack laughs

    i dont think i would have like that at all

    His voice is already kinda creepy. Like he's secretly laughing at you or knows some secret and just won't tell. The voice actor is brilliant.

    I really enjoy the character design. The faces are simple and very expressive.

    Of the few episodes of Flapjack I have watched, I noticed several where Pendleton Ward was a writer. (Pendleton Ward made Adventure Time) Also, speaking of Chowder, here is my favorite reference so far:
