Aqua Teen Hunger Force is an animated TV show on the Adult Swim network. It’s about a meatball (Meatwad), a milkshake (Master Shake), and a carton of fries (Frylock) with human-like features who are usually broke and bored, which leads to lots of scheming, destructions, and chaos. They often hang out with their hairy, wifebeater-wearing, begrudging neighborb Carl, who often suffers the consequences of the Aqua Teen’s actions.

The gang can sometimes be found loitering in Carl’s above-ground swimming pool. In one episode, Carl’s pool was covered in blood thanks to metal god Danzig, who guest starred on the show as himself! There are plenty of heavy metal references scattered throughout the series.

For a show with episodes that run only 12 minutes, the series has introduced a large array of characters, including the Atari-graphics-inspired Mooninites whose leader Ignignokt often gives the finger.

The show’s themes go beyond the ridiculous, but I think that’s to be expected from three happy meal items who talk, scheme, and have outerspace encounters. Seasons 1-4 are out now on DVD.
