I don't think the Brothers Chaps would make fun of rednecks, considering they are from the South.
They could be mocking that stereotype.

Yeah, TBC love to mock stereotypes. This is jsut a case where it may offended, people read too deep into it.

The good news is, something good will probably come next week. Something less offensive.

I don't see how anyone found this to be offensive, I just didn't find it all that funny.

I wasn't insulted.

What a bunch of pansies. I am so sick of reading whiny comments about the Brothers Chaps losing their touch or so-and-so cartoon "not up to par". Now they are "dark" and "sick" too - you people are ridiculous. If "tastless" humor isn't your thing I guess you wouldn't like Airplane! or There's Something About Mary either. Oh wait, your mommies probably would let snivling crybabies watch such tasteless and FUNNY movies. Stick to the crap they're showing on the Cartoon Network these days and stop watching homestarrunner.com and stop posting your lame comments on this wiki.

I think your name pretty much speaks for the comment you just made.

Who's Maddox? Some kind of a mean guy or something?

And you may want to tone it down, watchitman. You might just get banninated by one of the mods.

Maddox is a guy who says he runs "the best site in the universe". He rants about stuff and insults a billion people for no reason.

Prophet, now THAT'S a good picture.

LB's voice reminded me of a cross between Goofy from Disney and Cletus the yokel from the Simpsons.

"Hey, I can see my house from here. Hey Maw, get off the dang roof!"

"Some folks'll never eat a skunk..."

I think the only thing that MIGHT have bothered me was the legless parrot. That's deformed.

BARNEY REFERENCE? What Barney reference are you talking about? I have gotta see this!!
Yeah, I don't remember that either. Could you please tell us what you mean?

Well, like at the beginning when Lil Brudder comes to life...I SWEAR that sounds almost EXACTLY like the opening of Barney...

>_> Don't ask me why I know that....

It's a sibling, right? I know how it is, I had to watch crap like that with my 3 year old cousin. That was followed by heavy metal and headphones.

I don't see what everybody's problem is. I liked it! I mean, sure, maybe it's not the funniest thing on the site, but it was decent. If anybody's getting offended by this chances are you're takin it way too seriously. It's just a cartoon.

Upon watching it again...

I still think it's one of the worst toons on the site. Although not as funny as some of their other stuff, it has it's moments. Overall I just didn't like lil brudder's voice as much as strong bad doing it.

However, I don't even know what the worst thing on the site is. I mean, I like almost all of it, IMO this might be it... but who knows. Everyone likes/dislikes different things on the site.

On a sidenote: I like Marshmallow's last stand. You just have to watch it in the mindset that it's not the H*R of today, but a shadow of what it would soon become. Still kinda cool tho.

Anyway. I'm not against another lil brudder. I just want a toon of him instead of just the theme song and Homestar crying.

All in all I still don't think it was that bad of an update.

Dude, lighten up. Just because some people didn't like the cartoon for its imagery, it doesn't give you any right to call them pansies, or crybabies, or make any of the other insulting comments that you made. That's just flaming, and I suggest you cut it out. You make the general assumption that anyone who doesn't like "tasteless" humour is a momma's boy/girl and a crybaby...It's called having morals. Now, I'm not saying TBC lack morals, and come to think of it, I don't recall anyone saying they're "dark" and "sick". At least I didn't, I don't remember exactly what everyone posted. Anyway, it's one cartoon that was generally disliked. Where do you get off insulting people because of it?

In closing, lay off the insults, and by the way, you spelled "tasteless" wrong. And "sniveling".

Um....first off, watch it, no insults here, ok?

Second off, people have the right to say what they want about a toon or e-mail, but that does not give you the right to bash them. Different people have different opinions abot certain things. Got it?

Homestar was definitely the funniest part of the toon... the concept was pretty funny, I thought, but I will agree that Lil Brudder's voice sucks. The parrot in the Easter Egg was hilarious.

Morals? MORALS??? BAH-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! What do morals have to do with tasteless humor or the lack of it? NOTHING. Oh wait, let me guess, you voted for Bush, right? HAHAHAHAHA!

This is the most lame boring thing on H*R.com!. The only funny part was Homestar, and that was only for 10 seconds. I was bored throughout the toon, and it just wasn't funny.

I like it and think it's good for some small laughs, but it's just a short, and it seems like it's being compared to an email, which are two different things. Granted it's not exactly the best thing on the site.. it's good for a chuckle.


wait.. why am I defending lil brudder?


...oh and I just realised too that I like the parrot I want to see more of it. XD

watchitman, morals are just how people measure right and wrong. Clearly you have a different set of morals than some of the people posting here who didn't like the cartoon. I really liked it, I thought it was funny because it was sad and silly. I can understand why you might think morals are a negative thing because of the way Bush exploits the morals of the religious to promote his political agenda, but that doesn't mean having moral is a bad thing, or even inherently Republican.

How old are you? Just curious.

Another thing. Someone said earlier that because Li'l Brudder has nubs that means he wasn't born with just one leg. I am certain people (and animals) can be born with under-developed limbs like Li'l Brudder, so that settles that.

Can someone get the username Big Brudder? My love for all things Orwellian wants this very badly.

I have something that will ever so debunk your theory. I'm a religious man. Heavy in my Catholic belief...and I voted for Kerry, so boo-yah!

But yeah, please stop. What you are doing is immature, and quite stupid.

I didn't much care for this to be perfectly honest. Loved the parrot falling over, and loved Homestar crying... but it just wasn't that funny. I don't think they are losing their touch or anything, this is the first time I haven't liked something on the site.

As for watchitman... I know, I'm a newbie (n00b for anyone who still uses 1337)... but whenever you respond to him you just make it more likely he'll talk again.

And the immaturity award goes to: watchitman!

So what, you couldn't think of an intelligent reply so you laugh at me and make some completely random assumption that has nothing to do with the situation? If you had bothered to look a little below my avatar, you would see I'm from Canada anyway. And I happen to despise Bush, but this isn't what this is about.

What does this have to do with morals? I'll tell you. Laughing at disabilities, I think, is immoral. If you couldn't figure that much out, then I see why you couldn't think of anything intelligent to say.

There are some people that have no reason to argue but the desire to argue. Those people should be banned.

Well, you do have that power now....


OK, so I watched this toon a couple times, and I just didn't really get into it. My first opinion of it was "ummm, yeah." Repeated viewings pretty much gave me the same impression. I don't know what it was with this toon, but I just didn't get into it as much as the others. I don't want to call this the worst toon ever, but if it wasn't, I really think it was close.

Of course, that's just my opinion.
