Superjail is far and away one of the strangest pieces of animation ever allowed on the small screen. This show is much more of a bad acid trip than almost anything else you will ever see without breaking the law. the series follows the eccentric cast of characters that inhabit Superjail and their daily sadistic adventures. In particular I enjoyed the episodes that included the characters simply known as the twins in a supporting role but nearly every episode is graced by the show stealing Warden who's crazy shenanigans are often violent and grotesque but never boring. I would not recommend this to the average viewer and I would never recommend this for viewing by a child but if you have read all that I've said and you want to give it a shot then by all means. Long live Superjail!

Frankly, it worries me that so many tout this awful excuse for a show as "genius." It is a complete gratuitous, lame brained, plot less, freak show that leaves me feeling sick for the people who make this and for those who watch this and find pleasure. I really love Adult Swim and have watched it since its inception, this is the one show that I can't understand the draw to. There are other shows I don't necessarily like, but can understand why others might, but really there's no excuse, other than mental illness or drug induced brain rot for liking this. I wouldn't doubt if mass murderers and baby killers are among those giving this good reviews. If you find enjoyment from this show, I urge you to seek psychiatric help, now.

The only negative thing about Superjail, is The Twins, these two blond, identical twin aliens with European-sounding accents...they almost make the show Unwatchable. But aside from those two annoying FREAKS, the show is Unbelievable!! Superjail is so Fast paced & unpredictable, I never know what'll happen next. There is so much Gruesome violence, it's unlike any other cartoon I've ever seen before. I've never seen a show this violent & hilarious at the same time. By the end of every episode, I'm always stuck in Awe. I can never get enough of this show, I really wish they'd give this show more often, instead of the same old dreadful shows, like Family Guy. (I'm a HUGE fan of Superjail! I LOVE this show!)

I would not label myself as an Adult Swim connoisseur, but I've watched enough of it to realize that it's quality has greatly declined in the last few years. Though AS was and is more a showcase for offbeat, randomness-based humor than top-notch animation, recent programs have begun to severely push the limits of tolerable quality in both fields - that is to say, they aren't funny and the animation sucks (there is no excuse for '12 Oz. Mouse'. There is no excuse.).By no means is 'Superjail' adult swim's saving grace. In terms of premise, it's no surprise it'd be in their programming block (a violent, surrealist comedy set in a violent, surrealist futuristic prison), nor is it quite chock full of gutbusting humor or even a foreseeable future beyond one or two seasons (but I feel I'm being too harsh).See, what makes 'Superjail' stand out far above it's fellow Adult Swim shows is it's art. In a complete 180 from AS' usual preference of poorly animated Flash cartoons, 'Superjail' is psychedelic, vivid and detailed, recalling the best of early 90s alternative comics and cartoons (think Mike Judge and 'Liquid Television'). Each second of animation is pure mania, crammed with as much action as the eye can take, but never in a way that seems too busy or distracting. It's a sheer blast to the senses and you can't take your eyes off it. Simply, the art breathes with LIFE, which is a lot more than I could say about...well, ANY Adult Swim cartoon.Not to say that the art is the show's only positive point; the consistently hilarious David Wain (of 'Wet Hot American Summer' and 'Stella') supplies the voice of "The Warden", the series' protagonist who, though slightly two-dimensional, is just as lively and wild as the animation, both in character and voice. And, though not as often as I'd have liked to, I had a hard chuckle here and there at some of the show's clever 'ATHF'-esque use of non-sequiturs ("four hearts was one too many", indeed).Though it certainly won't become the next 'SeaLab' (or whatever), 'Superjail' is definitely worth the time for those into offbeat animation or anyone who just wants to see something *different* on TV for once. I only hope that the demented aesthetics 'Superjail' will spark a similar line of Adult Swim shows in the future and get the block back on the right track...after all, future generations simply can't endure another "Assy McGee"...
