The Brak Show is about the daily adventures of Brak and his best buddy Zorak, prior to meeting Space Ghost. Brak lives with his family in a lovely suburb somewhere in space.
Brak gets advice from Mom (a nice lady who keeps a clean house) & Dad (a human with a Latin accent that is rather short due to a shrink-ray accident), and gets corrupted by Zorak.
Brak is an honest and somewhat dumb kid and Zorak is a foul-mouthed, destruction-loving mantis. Brak's brother Sisto is also around from time to time. Their neighbor is Thundercleese, a giant robot with massive armaments, who likes maintaining his lawn.

The Brak Show is a spin-off of Cartoon Planet, which was a spin-off of Space Ghost: Coast To Coast. Confused yet?
It is an original series for Cartoon Network's programming block Adult Swim.

The Brak show is written and produced by Jim Fortier and Pete Smith and is produced in Cartoon Network Studios. Both Fortier and Smith were
writer/producers on Cartoon Network's hit, Space Ghost: Coast to Coast and later worked on the short-lived variety show, Brak Presents the Brak Show Starring Brak.

Production: Williams Street
Animation: Wild Hare Studiosless «

  (I'm not expecting a big turnout on this game, but I thought I'd try it anyways.) Several characters are chosen from The Brak Show, and each given 3 points to start. Each time somebody posts, you take away one point and give it to another character. (ie Brak +1, Zorak -1) Once a character is set at 0 points, they're out. The last character with points wins. (Note, the Daria game has been playing since Dec 20th, but it also has a lot more characters.): I give one point to Brak (he started at 3, now is 4), and take away one from Clarence (3 to 2). Brak - 4 Clarence - 2 Dad - 3 Marlon - 3 Mom - 3 Sisto - 3 Thundercleese - 3 Zorak - 3less «

  7 Good

  A pretty funny show. hide « show »

  This show features Brak and Zorak, two characters who had previously appeared in Cartoon Planet as Space Ghost's assistants in Cartoon Planet, technically making it another Space Ghost: Coast to Coast spin off. Whilst by now you would think the comedy is getting old, and perhaps it is, the show is still often very funny. In it Brak lives in a surburban area with his strangely small human dad, who is voiced by Space Ghost's voice actor George Lowe. He also lives with his mum, who like him is some sort of alien life form. There are other recurring characters but I don't feel the need to talk about them. To conclude if you enjoy other shows by Williams Street then you will quite likely find something to enjoy about this one.

  3.9 Bad

  More Williams Street junk. hide « show »

  Another off the wall comedy from the scatter brained weirdos working for Willams Street. What you get is recycled scenes, recycled characters,recycled sound effects, and recycled humor to the point of nausea. If variety is what your looking for, the random acts of main character Brak and freinds, may be enough to amuse you for almost 3 mins.That is if you have a strong attention span and a high tolerance for absurdity.Supposedly an adult cartoon, but you have to ask yourself why would anyone choose to watch this to occupy their time? Childrens cartoons have more flavor and ambition than what we see here.Much like its predecessor Space Ghost this shows appears to be nothing more than a pointless time waster.

  Awesomely funny show with lots of laughs and randomness. hide « show »

  The characters from the original Space Ghost series, Brak and Zorak, updated and with a few personality changes. Well, Brak has. No longer is he a space pirate but a kid at school and not so smart either! Zorak is still as evil as ever and gets Brak into trouble a bit.
  Brak lives with his mum and dad. His dad is a short man with an accent and can often be found reading the newspaper in the kitchen. His mum looks similar to Brak and is always there to offer him advice.
  The animation in the series is 2D on photo backgrounds. Brak's house in the series was actually Clay Croker's (voice of Zorak) house in real life! Interior shots in Brak's house they actually used doll house furniture. For me, the animation was one of the most interesting parts of the show.
  The first series is definately the funniest. If you want a good laugh I suggest you buy volume 1 of the Brak Show. As the series progressed the storylines and the humour in the episodes lessened slightly because the animators started to run out of ideas and so cancelled it. Its sad it was cancelled, it was a great show and has quite a fanbase. Another great show that sadly, had a fairly short life.

  7.7 Good

  How come Zorak never got his own show? He was 10 times cooler. hide « show »

  In fact, if it werent for ZORAK this show would have sucked like a $10 Crack Ho.
  
  The ever malevolent Zorak is what gave this show enough gas to limp along for 3 years. It was a nice transition out of the superior Space Ghost Coast to Coast. It was sort of a SGC2C sequel. Ghost even made an occasional appearance. Its not that Brak was horrible, its just without Zorak he was pretty dull. His MOM and Dad were, well, "adequate" but nothing special.
  
  Did I mention how cool Zorak was? Too bad BOSTON didnt show up in their "city on a flying UFO guitar". That would have been truly spectular. ZORAK RULES !!!
