  • Wow, and I thought Fanboy and Chum Chum was the worst cartoon ever

    1.0
    When Fanboy and Chum Chum first aired on Nick back in 2009, I said it was the worst cartoon ever, but this show makes Fanboy and Chum Chum likable. I really hate the animation, it looks like it was done by a 5 year old. and the plot is bad, I mean, who finds a show about animals half naked on an island running a hotel entertaining? that's quite... disturbing. At least Fanboy and Chum Chum are fully clothed. Is Cartoon Network on crack these days? why are they bringing in all these shows from Canada, come up with your own original shows Cartoon Network. Stuart Snyder is really killing Cartoon Network. he needs to die. One more complaint is why is this show on Boomerang? this show is not a classic and it never will be. Boomerang is meant for good classic 20th-century cartoons, not for modern ugly pieces of shit they call "Cartoons". so all in all, don't watch this show, If I had to choose between watching this or Fanboy and Chum Chum, I would pick Fanboy and Chum Chum in a heart beat.moreless

    Almost Naked Animals is a show about a bunch of animals wearing underwear. Now the first thing I can say is that the show can be unappealing. The animation style, character designs, and overall idea is annoying for most people to comprehend. The show at least has it's own animation design but the design of the show is somewhat gross. You have a show with a bunch of shaved animals, male and female, in their underwear. It's not X-rated at all but rather typical "cartoon goofiness" you see in shows like Spongebob. I can see how unappealing that can be, but it's at least unique, it makes it stick out in some way. It sticks out in a way that is gross or unappealing but it at least sticks out. Now besides the art style my next criticism would be the characters. You have Howie the Dog and Octo the Octopus,Bunny, Duck, Poodle. The character development here has been used many times before. First in "Spongebob SquarePants" and later in "Camp Lazlo" 'Fanboy and Chum Chum" In those the lead character(s) is some strange oddball with other opposing character that justs dislikes the lead. I've decided to dub it "Spongebob Development" In Almost Naked Animals, Howie is like Spongebob and Poodle is kinda like Squidward.



    In comparision to Sidekick, Sidekick does better than Almost Naked characters in some catagories while Almost Naked Animals does better than Sidekick in other catagories. Sidekick has more appealing characters,animation and setting designs than Almost Naked Animals. Almost Naked Animals has better plots, writing and character consistancy than Sidekick. In both shows the negitive aspects just overpowered the positive aspects.



    The shows humor is mainly like your typical Nickelodeon humor. Underwear jokes, goofy characters, random humor, etc.



    Almost Naked Animals is unappealing. The humor is similar to the stuff seen on Nickelodeon. The shows characters, character designs, humor, and setting designs are unappealing like Nickelodeon's "Fanboy and Chum Chum" Also like "Fanboy and Chum Chum" ,The character development setup is like Spongebob. Where Howie is like Spongebob. I'm sure there can be subtle positives about Almost Naked Animals, but the negitives overpower the positives. The idea about animals in their underwear is unique, yet unappealing. 4/10moreless
  • This isn't just bad, it's REALLY bad.

    1.0
    It really amazes me as to how far Cartoon Network continues to spiral. We have here yet another cartoon from our good friends in Canada. Out of all of them though, this is just downright awful. I'm not kidding, this is literally the worse Canadian import ever to be shown on CN. Almost Naked Animals takes place on an island where for some reason that's not explained, the animals are all in their underwear. The main character, Howie, is a dog with a group of other animals who he befriends and they all run a hotel called Banana Cabana. All the while, another hotel wants to take over it and plots to find ways to get it. Together Howie and his friends must keep the hotel safe from being taken over. Not only is the premise really stupid, but the way they do it leaves you baffled as to how this show got the green light. The first major issue has to be the fact that every character on this show is not the least bit interesting. Piggy is just an arrogant jerk who speaks like a caveman. Sloth is nothing more than some obsessed freak for Howie, and I mean she's WAY too obsessed with him that goes into stalker territory. Octo is nothing more than a timid octopus who contributes nothing. Duck is just a complete moron. Narwhal is a complete egotist who thinks he's the best singer ever when in reality he almost makes The Naked Brothers Band look talented in comparison. Bunny is nothing more than a stuck up whiner who loves to complain about anything and everything. Howie though, oh dear Lord in Heaven is Howie awful. Not only is he a complete moron, but he seems to also be a ripoff of Spongebob Squarepants. The way he acts like a complete oblivious character who is always being optimistic is a dead giveaway there. The only difference though is that Spongebob was not annoying like Howie. Howie pretty much is just as annoying as you can get with a main hero. The so called villain is actually Howie's sister who is a poodle and owns the other hotel. She wants to take over Banana Cabana for herself. Why? It's never explained at all. The plots are rather stupid and a case of been there done that with nothing new added in. It's always the same anyway, Howie and his friends must keep their hotel safe, so there's not much in terms of variety. As for the gags, the show delves into nothing more than crude humor that isn't funny. Seeing the poodle sneeze on a bat and its snot on him is NOT funny at all, it's just gross for the sake of being gross. If it's not that, then it's the characters making fart jokes or something that's not funny. The artwork is just poorly done. While the set designs are okay, the characters look ugly and the fact that they're almost naked doesn't exactly make for good eye candy. The animation comes off as choppy most of the time and there seem to be lip syncs that are off in this show. I mean do I really need to explain more why this show is a failure? The characters are not interesting and have no development, the stories are bland and forgettable, the humor and running gags are not funny and just gross, and the whole concept just makes no sense. Instead of checking into this show, you should be checking out of that show and running away from it and never looking back at it.moreless
  • Quite... Disturbing

    0.5
    I heard of this show from my best friends, who were talking about it at lunch. Well, pretty much, me and my friends are all cartoon freaks, so knowing this is something that's the topic of the table, it HAD to be decent... but was I in for a suprise.

    First off, the show itself is disturbing and horrific. Basically, the plot is: a bunch of animals running around in their underwear.



    The characters are Howie (the only one with an actual name), Narwhal, Octo, Bunny, Duck, Piggie, and Sloth. Now Howie, is very annoying, and like MetalCake25 said, he's just like Johnny Test, who I wish would die in a hole. Narwhal is completely stuck on himeself, and believes he's the best singer in the world, and needs to be on the cover of every magazine. Octo, is a timid octopus who looks... quite odd. Bunny is a, well, a bunny who has major anger problems, and thinks everything should be her way. Then there's Duck, a character who is really dumb and comes up with the worst prossible contraptions. Piggie is a jerk who can't speak in complete sentances and 'cooks'. Let's not forget Sloth, who has a REALLY creepy obsession with Howie. I'd know about creepy obsessions, knowing I have one myself...with Link... but that's not the point. The point is, all the characters are obnoxious and are annoying. 'Nuff said.



    The theme song is TOO catchy, and whenever I happen to hear it, I can't get it out of my head. Not to mention how it makes my ears bleed.



    The whole plot is odd, too. The fact that this moron of a dog, Howie, owns a hotel is beyond my understanding. The 'villian', actually, is Howie's sister, a poodle who wants to own Howie's hotel as well as her own. She also has a little bat slave. Each episode is about Howie and his friends trying to save the hotel from whatever madness that is going on.



    Another note on the charaters, everyone has HAIR everywhere. Even fish, who don't have fur to begin with, have it. It's gross :(.



    Well, that was my review, and my thoughts will remain.moreless
