Frisky Dingo is an American animated cartoon series created by Adam Reed and Matt Thompson for Adult Swim. The series revolved around the conflict between a supervillain named Killface and a superhero named Awesome X, alias billionaire Xander Crews, and much of the show's humor focuses on parodying superhero and action movie clichés. It debuted on October 16, 2006 and ended its first season on January 22, 2007; the second season premiered on August 26, 2007 and ended on March 23, 2008. A third season was in development, but in the absence of a renewal contract from Adult Swim, pre-production ceased. The production company itself, 70/30 Productions, subsequently went out of business in January 2009. A spin-off show, The Xtacles, premiered on November 9, 2008, but only two episodes were aired prior to the production company's closure.

Reviews

SnakesOnAnAfricanPlain Frisky Dingo is a bizarrely titled, and simply bizarre animated comedy that comes in 10 minute episodes. Over the course of two seasons we followed Killface, an evil supervillain, and Awesome-X a superhero. However, this is very different to everything you've seen before. The hero is a complete jackass, and not in the cocky kind of Tony Stark way. He is stupid and arrogant, but somehow his enthusiasm makes him very likable. He acts how he majority of us would probably act with superpowers. He has great powers and no responsibility. Killface is also not the typical villain, especially in season two when he runs for president. Killface is bringing up a son, and also has to deal with paperwork and politics of being a bad guy. It isn't as easy as just being evil. The world is also filled with wonderful side characters that seem to each want their own moment in the sun. The writing is very quick and has some wonderful lines based on absurd premises. The series does become too reliable on a particularly one note character come the second season, and it's a shame the story never really continued. What we do get is a show that's easy to digest in short increments or a lengthy marathon session.
wandereramor Frisky Dingo is a weird, weird cartoon. Not even Adult Swim weird: it superficially fits into that structure but makes it crack at the seams and bow to its own ambitions. At time there seems to be a running bet as to how many plot lines they can squeeze into one eleven-minute episode, while still making every one of those minutes full of hilarious jokes.And the jokes are pretty great. There are some mighty one-liners, but even better than that is a gradual flow of jokes and counter-jokes between characters that only build on themselves. The characters themselves also lend themselves well to comedy, with the principal duo being every bit as ridiculous as more minor characters like Wendell the union thug or Artie the lovestruck crab mutant.As for the long-form narrative, it has a lot of funny twists, but it seems like more of a balancing act than an actual story, and there are times when you just wish they would let a character go for once. The animation is also about as basic as it gets, and I'm not sure the cheapo aesthetic entirely fits the feel of the show. Adam Reed's follow-up series Archer gets these elements a lot better, but Frisky Dingo is perhaps more purely funny. Each season is only a couple hours put together, and you could do a lot worse than spending those hours laughing your ass off.
El_DustinD The characters are great and the brilliant lines come often. "Boosh" has been a part of my daily speech ever since. It's so sad that it only lasted 2 seasons.If you have yet to see the show, you have to watch at least 6 episodes before you give up. I enjoy the first few, but the show really hits its stride once you get to know the characters. There is a lot of joke repetition and some things start to get funnier and funnier just because you wonder when you will hear the joke or line again. The creators went on to make the show Archer. I certainly like that show, but I'd give it up to hang with Killface for just one more season.
ashburn2477 at first i didn't like this show because it didn't make sense and killface was like the weirdest thing i have ever seen so i never watched it. then the other night and they played the first episode and everything just clicked for me and it was the funniest thing ever. the basic premise is great: superheros and villains trying to operate in the "real" world while being held up by corporations, lawyers, hookers, etc. i could see how this show would do very poorly since it rewards the repeat viewer, kinda like arrested development. i hope this show does very well and i cant friggin wait for next season.Boosh! p.s. killing Xander's evil twin, Merill (sp?), in order to make things less complicated was one of the funniest jokes i have ever seen.
