this is the sort of show hipsters watch. they watch it so they can say its awesome. so they can tell you, "you just don't "get it" "there's nothing to get. and there's a reason we don't have more 5 year olds writing for the media.....i do however, take this back if its a show for kids.... and if the dude that writes it, reads this, i'd tell him not to stop writing comics because its brilliant that he's doing it at all at such young age and that he clearly has massive potential to write epic stories in the future, but this is metaphorically raw meat, thats no where near the quality ready for human consumption.

This is, without a doubt, the worst cartoon I've seen in my life. I suspect that the makers of this show have purposely inflated the IMDb rating for it, because I just don't see how anyone could rate it anything more than 1 star.It's terrible.They think that they're being clever by being random. But see, randomness in and of itself is not funny. Adult Swim shows can have a level of crazy randomness, but the episodes are usually about something. What Axe Cop tries to do is copy Adult Swim but take randomness to a point where that's all it is. There's nothing funny or clever about it.Axe Cop should have been called "Deus Ex Machina: The Show", because its randomness gives it virtually no form or restriction(yes, that's always a bad thing). For example, a character can suddenly have fire powers or move the entire earth without those powers ever being previously established and without any explanation. The Axe Cop is surrounded by enemies? Well now he has the power to cover the earth in fire that only kills all the bad guys! It's not funny or amusing because every second of every episode is just like that. There's a reason children usually don't write for TV or Film because their imaginations are random and have no substance. I guess the creators and the idiot executives at Fox thought that this time they'd "think outside the box" and hire a kid and his older brother to write a cartoon for them. This goes to show just how out-of-touch some of these executive goons are.Don't bother watching this show. Go outside or read a book; don't lower your already low standards and let this crappy show melt your brain.

This show is a fantastic harbinger for future interaction between the internet and television. I've followed the Axe Cop web comic for years and to see it brought to life by Nick Offerman, Patton Oswalt and Johnathan Banks is pretty much wish fulfillment. If the plot seems childish to you, that's because it was written by an 8 year old, Malachai Nicolle. His older brother brought Malachai's stories to life and the animation style really syncs up well with the illustration style of Ethan's comic. If you can't handle the pure, unbridled madcap awesome that is Axe Cop, you may have lost the childish part of your soul. I, for one, am ecstatic that this show has made it to network TV and I pray that it goes well enough to prompt other networks or FOX to consider animating more web comics. Could we see Nathan Fillion voicing Dr. McNinja someday? We can only hope.

I can't even begin to comprehend who would watch this garbage. During the time slot it was shown i would guess it would be intended for more mature audiences, but it seemed like a plot meant for a 10-13 year old. Also judging by the first episode it was such a horrible blatant rip off of adult swim's nightly lineup, which is what they're trying to do at FOX, but failing miserably. This show actually lacks any coherent plot or production quality. I would rather watch those garbage newer episodes of the Simpson's than watch this crap. For a good animated show go watch Futurama. I would be surprised if this show didn't get cancelled after about 2 weeks on the air, did they even do any test screenings with this crap? Oh god. i mean i thought i had seen awful before but this really takes the cake.
