    This, without a doubt, is one of the best shows on Adult Swim. It has everything that television needs, but hasn't been seen until now. There's no way I can really describe this show. JUST WATCH IT!

  • Have you ever had one of those short flings where you meet a girl or boy and they are funny, and mysterious, and sexy, and weird, and kinky, and exciting and just perfect? And you just fall into bed, totally infatuated and barely leave it until a few days later when you notice that there was nothing behind the mysterious faade, that the bag of kinky tricks doesn't go very deep, and the weird and exciting parts are suddenly, all at once, utterly boring? Well, Superjail! is just like that, minus the hickemoreless

    Superjail! is an Adult Swim show detailing the goings-on of the world's most high security jail, a place where the only people more unstable than the criminals are the Warden and his posse of thugs. In every episode the Warden and his co-patriots struggle to deal with deep seeded emotional traumas, (at which they often fail), keep Superjail in order, (at which they usually fail), and minimize the number of casualties, (at which they always fail).
    Superjail! Came highly recommended to me. My roommate loves it. my drinking buddies love it. Random people at parties have come up to me and begun discussing the show just assuming that I'm a big fan. For months I heard raves about the animation, the style, the perverse humor. So, when I got the first season on DVD I was excited to sit down and watch.
    But here's the thing, Superjail! kinda' sucks. But it grows on you after you watch it highly medicated, which is what i think the show is intended for. You start to feel the show and enjoy it more.
    This show has a warped sense of humor which I for one enjoy I know my review seems harsh but like I said the show is best enjoy slightly medicated so try and have fun and watch away...

  • Lots and lots of prisoners getting owned by traps...and a nutty warden.

    Great show. Plain and simple. I love watching it, although I hate the music at the ending credits, creeps me out...but considering what goes on DURING the show it's the most tame thing there is.

    Compared to Metalocalypse, this show is even more gross and disturbing...and yet I don't like the disturbing material in Metalocalypse while I don't mind the gross-ness in Superjail...perhaps it's the metal music that I really dislike compared to the gore...or it's that the gore in Superjail, while absolutely appalling, is so random and funny that it doesn't bother me because I'm so busy laughing at it while Metalocalypse has a lot of random gore that involves watching people's faces melt off. At least Superjail has comedic gore...Metalocalypse...not so comedic...more like extremely violent.

    Either way, only watch Superjail if you like watching wardens that are mentally unstable, a little sidekick who is filled with paranoia, a female guard who has a bulge below the belt and muscles out to there, and two twins that enjoy causing havoc to fall to Superjail, the one prisoner who manages to escape at the end then find himself recaptured in the opening credits, Jacknife, and gore that is so hysterically funny to watch that you wonder why you are laughing so hard at cartoon characters dying, then this is the show for you.moreless

    Here's how it all started; one (fairly recent) Friday night, I was watching Adult Swim as I usually do, and found myself watching this. Being used to seeing Delocated on at this time before, my initial reaction was 'Wtf is this?'. But as the episode proceeded, I grew to enjoy it, and it is now among my favorite shows. Superjail! is a delightfully twisted show. The animation is stellar, and I love the trippy sequences. The characters are crazy, but likable. Overall, this show is hilarious and extremely creative, and I hope to see a second season sometime in the near future. I will warn, though, that the humor, is, well... kinda f'ed up, simply put. It's extremely violent, as I'm sure many have mentioned before, so this might not be for everyone... I'm sure if I showed it my friends, most of them would be deeply disturbed. But if you happen to love messed up humor, then go ahead and give Superjail! a try.moreless

  • Amazing. Actually funny!

    So many of Adult Swim's new shows are total busts- but Superjail delivers. It has a standard format but manages to be funny while adhering to its formula. From the psychedelic opening sequence which appears to be different each time, to the flamboyant warden, to the weird (Norwegian?) twin guys, to the equally psychedelic bloodbath at the end of each episode- Superjail blows my mind. A truly great show on Adult Swim proves itself to be equally hilarious and disturbing- see Aqua Teen Hunger Force- my only concern is how they can top themselves episode after episode- I can't imagine how much energy goes into each brawl sequence never mind such classic lines as "I think the Warden has been penetrating my head with his organ."moreless
