Just saw the commercial for next week's Aqua Teen Hunger Force and they are having furries on it, they actually called them furries too. Will air 2/17 at 11:45 I think.
Thoughts?
One has to bear in mind that even if furries were mainstream the portrayal would be humorously unflattering... sorta like the Trek fandom's "Get a life!" moment on SNL, only with less restraint.
Well, I'll be honest. For those who've not seen it, don't expect anything good...or bad. It's kind of in its own purgatory. They don't even mention the word "furry" or even "fur."
A bunch of folks show up randomly in 'animal suits' and dance to techno music.
A note though that the rabbit leader, hoppy bunny, called his SO on the phone from Carl's room and called it his 'religion' though... Not sure what to think of that one myself.
You know, they weren't making it to cater to us. Weird things happen on aqua teen. That's it. As far as an aqua teen episode goes it's pretty good considering the recent quality of their episodes.
I loved the foxes and the way they danced the nordic track. Bloody awesome.
Its.... Well, it was pretty bad. But none the less, it was funny.
I want the power of a thousand suns.

I found it amusing that their leader was a brain surgeon. Yet another example of most furries being successful at some thing outside of the con setting
i didn't even know there were gonna be furries on ATHF but i randomly got to see that episode. i was on my comp and looked up and saw furries dancing to electronic music on their lawn. lmfao! it was so funny only cuz i never expected it. ^.^
Dr. Weird: Gentlemen! Behold! I have invented this.....
Steve: What is it?
Dr Weird: I dont know. Go stand over there.
Steve: You mean here- (Gets catapulted by a rainbow into the sky)
Dr. Weird: It works! I am one can short of a six pack, wah-hah-hah-hah-hah!

ATHF kind of died for me after I saw about 30 episodes... was too much of the same thing for me.

Furries.. on Aquateen Hunger Force?! O_o
Nothing good can come of this.
Our only hope is that the entire production staff consists of closet furs.

permalinkI agree but even so I'm not gonna be too phased about being made fun of by a giant talking thing of french fries.
Might be interesting, actually.

It does say furries on the web page.

I did actually stay up to see it last night.
What the heck was with the recorder that took over Carl?
And where can I get a bunch to mail to people I hate? >:}
As expected, Meatwad joined in immediately. I kinda figured that'd happen.

permalinkI think this is what we get when the writers are on strike and the producers of a show try to come up with their own jokes.
