fung0 This is the kind of show that US television really can't do. When someone does accidentally sneak in the side door with a brilliant effort like Greg the Bunny, it has to be neutered or killed. (Just like Firefly and many other shows that actually dare to push the boundaries.)Of COURSE Greg the Bunny was not allowed (or helped) to find its audience. I only caught it by total fluke, without knowing what kind of show it was. What I discovered was one of the most innovative, cynical, depraved and utterly hilarious series of all time. (If you don't get it, don't hurt yourself trying. Just flip over to those reruns of Friends, and let your brain turn to porridge.)In the UK, things are very different. Off-the-wall shows like Black Books, Still Game or 15 Storeys High are lovingly incubated and cherished for generations. Sometimes, as with Monty Python, they achieve worldwide acclaim. That's the reward for taking chances.My advice: seek out the excellent DVD collection of Greg the Bunny and take a chance. Then ask yourself why all TV comedy can't be this clever.

abdel411 This was a show that was easy to fall in love with, flaws and all. Most of the episodes had long periods where nothing funny was going on, like two people sitting in an office with no puppets, no gags, straight story-line type stuff. Then you'd have a couple of knee-jerk type jokes with the ape making a poop joke maybe. Generally, not the best writing in the world. But the idea, the feel of the show, everything about it just made it so easy to love, that I still miss this show and have fond memories of when it was on the air. And even though it was a seriously flawed show, by the time it had hit its second season, I'm sure it would have worked everything out. Besides, it was ten times better than half the crap FOX is still putting on their network.

bob the moo Greg is one of 3.2 million fabricated-Americans living among us in the US. Greg is one of these but the only job that he can get is as the Easter Bunny once a year. He turns to his flatmate Jimmy Bender to ask his director father to get him an admin job behind the scenes on the children's television show Sweet Knuckle Junction. However the show itself is shedding one puppet to freshen things up and Greg happens to be in the right place at the right time, bringing Jimmy with him as his agent.It took so long for this show to reach the UK that it had been cancelled then brought back to the US screens but it was reasonably worth the wait for those of us that enjoy our sitcoms with a bit more subversive humour. The plot is silliness but it is really helped by lots of great character and sharp lines – it is certainly not for children but that is a good thing! The shows are pretty funny and I found myself laughing out loud regularly and was consistently amused when I wasn't laughing. It isn't rocket science and it isn't going to be to everyone's tastes but I enjoyed it and fans of Family Guy and other similar shows will probably enjoy it.The voice work is good but it is the writing of the characters that make it work. Warren the Ape is my favourite but Greg himself is of good value and well delivered by Milano. The retarded turtle is fun; Count Blah is OK but is a rather clumsy spoof of Sesame Street's Count. The human cast contained a surprising amount of stars. Levy and Green are both good, Silverman is sexy and funny as always and Gunton and Spybey are OK if not that well used.Overall then a funny show that was on for only a short time but was very funny when it was. Whether you find the concept funny or stupid should tell you whether or not you'll find it funny – for me the sharp lines and cool characters produced plenty of laughs and made for very enjoyable 20 minute episodes.

knifeintheeye Greg the Bunny is an old fashioned ensemble cast TV series that tickles the funny bone. Everyone who watches the series will immediately have a favorite character (mine is the delightfully slow turtle, Tardy). The show had (I use the past tense since this show was never given a shot to find an audience before FOX pulled the plug on it.) an interesting mix of likable (Greg, Jimmy and of course Tardy), misunderstood (Gil and Alison) and just downright strange (Count Blah and most of the fabricated Americans--puppets.) There are a few other human characters who get their time in the stoplight as well. What FOX screwed up was the irreverent nature of the show. Seeing shows like 'Arrested Development' and 'Malcolm in the Middle' on FOX that are boarder line tasteless at times, makes me wonder why they'd try to tone down a show like 'Greg the Bunny'. But they did. The first half of the series is great, then there is a steady decline as the show got whitewashed and sanitized. A wonderful highlight of the DVD set are the commentaries by the creators. At one time it was a passion but then they caved to other peoples whims and the show sank. The Tardy the Turtle mini movie, if you enjoy Tardy is great as well. I highly recommend this show to anybody who enjoys The Simpsons and most other FOX adult cartoons.
