This is by far, my favorite Adult Swim show (and rapidly becoming one of my favorite shows of all time). Its completely and utterly genius. But, my comment is in regards to this posted release date. WHY WAS IT PUSHED BACK 3 MONTHS?!?! It's and 11 minute long show! It's not like they needed more time to edit?!
Awesome show. 5 out of 5 stars.

Frisky Dingo is much better than Sealab 2021. Not that sealab is bad, but it's not consistently funny like Frisky Dingo and the second season is the best. I can't wait to complete my dvd collection. I'm just hoping that they have the heart to put in extra features. Even old commercials would be better than the 0 extras in the first season. Also I saw a review complaining about the pushed released date; I hear that there's supposed to be extra xtacle episodes, so I think that's why that happened.
NO YOU CANNOT HAS CHEESEBURGER!! 5 out of 5 stars.

Editorial Review:
One of the most curious animated series to come from the Adult Swim stable, Frisky Dingo might be best described as a cartoon superhero take on Seinfeld's formula: a show that's about nothing, but one that's also funny and fascinating all the same. The brainchild of Sealab 2021 creators Matt Thompson and Adam Reed, the premise of Frisky Dingo concerns millionaire playboy Xander Crews, who moonlights as costumed crime fighter Awesome-X. Having vanquished his last archvillain, Crews is urged by his employees to return to his office to sort out the financial mess created by his alter ego. But the arrival of the monstrous Killface and his Annihilatrix (which will pull the launch the Earth into the sun) lures him back into… well, not so much action as lots and lots of paperwork. The resulting episodes of Season 1 concern Crews and Killface's attempts to fund their respective projects while dealing with distractions like Simon, Killface's incorrigible son, and Crews' exasperated second in command Stan. To say that Frisky Dingo is unlike any other superhero series on television (and very few animated series in general) is a distinct understatement, but there's a method behind the madness: that the vagaries of life often get in the way of the loftiest of goals. Of course, that doesn't explain the show's endless non sequiters and moments of true surrealism, like Awesome-X's clueless henchmen, the X-tacles, or episodes like "Emergency Room," in which the entire cast of characters spends the full running time suffering from various horrible injuries. Maybe it's best to think of this as meta-superhero action. All 13 episodes of Frisky Dingo's debut season are compiled on this single disc (each episode runs just 11 minutes), but sadly, no supplemental features are included. That's unfortunate, if for no other reason than they might have provided some sort of explanation for the show's motives. -- Paul Gaita
