Whats Awesome Aqua Teen Hunger Force



The awesome show Aqua Teen Hunger Force is an American animated television series shown on Cartoon Network. ATHF premiered on December 30, 2000 before Adult Swim officially debuted. ATHF is the longest running original series on the network. In 2007, an ATHF movie, Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters, was released in 877 selected theaters throughout the United States. Another movie is planned for 2011, to be called Death Fighter.

The show is about the adventures of three anthropomorphic fast food items and their next-door neighbor in suburban New Jersey. The original crime-solving premise of the show was abandoned early. The show features surreal and often morbid humor. An initially structured plot is often abandoned as characters' actions take the story far afield. Regularly appearing characters frequently die in an episode, only to appear alive and well in the next. Since its release, it has become a major cult classic.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force is directed by Dave Willis and Matt Maiellaro, and produced by Williams Street. Alot of the dialogue is supplemented with ad libs and improvisation by the voice actors. The show is fully scripted but ad libs are included in the final voice recordings. Many, if not all, of the crew and cast members formerly worked on Space Ghost Coast to Coast. Rapper Schoolly D performs the theme song, and in early episodes.

Here's a video of some of the funniest moments of ATHF.
