Seriously, what were they thinking? This carton is the worst mash-up of awful, dry humor, horrible parodies, and well, just overall suck.
The Storyline: Jimmy goes to some "creatively named" theme park with his classmates on a school trip. He was being stupid, and a train hit him. Somehow, he needed a brain transplant (which does not work in real life. Speaking of which, wouldn't he remember everything that the original owner of the brain had, instead of everything he experienced?), and the only brain available was the brain of that famous cartoonist. Because of this, he starts tripping for no apparent reason and sees horribly parodied and animated cartoons. Sony Appleday figures out Jimmy gets the brain, and quests to capture to so he can have it to take over the world. The brain helps him for reasons unknown. So, in a nutshell, the story sucks. It is a horrible mash-up of anything you could possibly think of.
The Characters: The characters are completely unlikable. Jimmy is a complete imbecile, who would believe the sky was made of Jello if someone told him. He also brushes off the cartoon characters as often as he can. That brings me to them. The are completely negligible in the series. Anything they say/do adds nothing and is not funny at all. Craig is a using, abusing beaver that really needs to cut the fro and act normally. If Robin had better character depth and overall development, she could be decent, but is not. Jimmy's dad is a jerky idiot. Character development is at a minimum, if at all.
The Overall Premise: Well, it is to make every single thing every single person says and does funny, even though all of it is humorless.
The Laugh Track: Yes, it is deserving of a section all of its own. The laugh track is likely the worst part of the show. The laugh track is played so often it gets really irritating really fast. It is also placed in spots where id doesn't belong (which are almost all of them), and is basically there to tell the audience to laugh. My guess is that the execs at the Cartoon Network division of Turner realized the show wasn't really all that funny, so they added it in to make it seem funnier. Didn't work at all, obviously.
I know the last episode aired almost a year ago, but this show is so awful that I cannot forget it. I wish I could, but something this stupid just doesn't go away.
