TV Still Rules

Sealab

Legendary Society of Men.

I love it.

We have, from left to right, Der Kapitan, Monster Hesh, Huck Finn, The Frenchman, and Quetzalcouatl.

This is an obvious sendup of the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen - the difference being that no one can communicate; between Der Kapitan’s incoherent drunken German ramblings, The Frenchman’s Cousteau-esque accent, Quetzalcouatl just screaming “QUETZALCOUTAL” over and over again, Huck Finn’s southern cracker drawl and well, we know about Monster Hesh - no one can communicate here.

So Der Kapitan whips out his Luger and shoots everyone to death.

Moral of the story? Sealab 2021 has the most realistic write-up of the problems leading to the conflicts of the Victorian Era than anything else I’ve seen in a good long time.

God Bless Cartoon Network, and God Bless Adult Swim.
