Did you buy that there was something deeper going on in 12 oz Mouse or did you think it was just an animated shitpost (if such terminology existed back then)?

That's up to you man, it's there, if you can see it for yourself.

The way I see it, in addition with the rest of Matt Maiellaro's works like ATHF, is that. Absolutely anything can be made into a character. Fucking squiggles, or french fries, or redneck squids, or the weird 'ripped' shapes that he sees sometimes... it doesn't matter. What matters is what story can you tell with them.

>implying it's either
The people who made it were idiots and they made a bad show.

I think a meaningful shitpost is kind of an oxymoron.

The term shitpost did in fact exist back then, but was literally in reference to people posting dumb shit on Yas Forums with zero effort.

That's probably right. I was thinking more in terms of when 'ironic shiposting' came in vogue which was definitely after this show's time.

Normie alert

says you

Now that is a shitpost.

It was clearly them fucking around and adding "lore" as they went, but it was a special kind of ridiculous that rolled over into amazing.

Explain the filename.

didnt Maiellaro say he was inspired partly by david lynch? so like i guess kind of?
idk if its meant to have like "MEANING" or themes but it definitely has a plot lol..... unsure if it was meant to at the start

>idk if its meant

Anyone has the April Fools episode?

Big O. Big O. Big O. BIG O!

it was them seeing how far they could push it and not alienate their core audience.

and it didn't tank their ratings bad, so it basically opened up the flood gates to all the terrible shit that you started seeing in 05 and onward.

I thought the show sucked, I just liked the hilarious theme song

i thought your mom sucked but you're right about the theme song.

That wasn't 12 oz Mouse, that was Tim & Eric.

look you can hate tim and eric all you want but that's just completely wrong. tim and eric was popular and well liked actually. just go on YT and look at the view counts between clips uploaded between the mainline AS and AS UK accounts they are honestly only rivaled in popularity by ATHF clips.

Tim and Eric was popular but its popularity doomed the network. Go on wikipedia and compare the AS originals from 2001-2007 to the ones from 2008-now.

got a job for you, Yas Forums.

I'm cautiously optimistic for the revival.
Invictus was way too clear and direct on Mouse's backstory and the fanwank.
The released episode feels like an introduction to who the characters are. And the new character looks like Tomska's character in Eddsworld.

It started out a shitpost and then became deeper.

it was both
I don't have any hatred for the show just the creator being a cock sucking piece of shit, when Lazzo was deciding on renewing Big O for the 3rd season the creator of 12 Oz. Mouse intervined and told Lazzo to give the money to him and not on anime garbage.

You got a source on that?

minoriteam had a few villains that felt close to venture bros-level, shame they had to be stuck in such a shitty show
