Five million years ago, the Atlantic Ocean covered North America all the way to the Ohio Valley. As the ocean receded to form our present-day geography, a family of squids was stranded in a remote setting in the North Georgia mountains. This motley melange of mischievous mollusks, influenced by the rural ways of the redneck locals, quickly "adapticise" to a world of fighting, feuding and fornicating with a Faulknerian flambé of ferocious sea creature livin'. The humor lies in the "adapticization."


I don't even have cable, so I don't know what I'm missing. Squidbillies, for anyone with Cartoon Network, looks pretty funny and the backgrounds look unusually gorgeous (for an Adult Swim show, which usually seems to pride itself on Ugly)! Written by the guys who did Aqua Teen Hunger Force, for better or worse... I am under the impression this started to air this past week. And you thought there was no good news this October!!!
