I think Moral Orel will be my new favorite show.
Summary from Wikipedia: Moral Orel is a claymation show currently airing on Adult Swim. It was created by Dino Stamatopoulos, writer for Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Mr. Show, and TV Funhouse. Ten episodes have been ordered. It has been described as "Davey and Goliath meets South Park." Despite advertising for the show, which portrays it as a show in the vein of the Davey and Goliath cartoons to which it is stylistically similar (Stamatopoulos has stated that it is not a direct parody [1]), it is aimed at mature audiences.
The program centers on Orel, who constantly tries to be good and live by Christian morality. He often misinterprets theology, however, resulting in varied types of chaos for either him or the town. The episode "The Best Christmas Ever", which premiered on December 13, 2005, for example, had Orel and his younger brother, Shapey, laying waste to a manger scene by the local church. Orel, believing Shapey to be the second coming of Christ, was merely following the mischievous, tantrum-throwing sibling's lead. This led some viewers to believe the entire show to be a joke.
It should be noted that currently, Adult Swim does not have the remaining three episodes scheduled for broadcast, and intends to reair the previous episodes until Standards and Practices approves.

I was wondering what gave with that. I was only half into the premier episode which was the christmas episode (I'll never understand why they aired that one first) But I loved the Halloween episode so I set it to record new eps. Hopefully we'll get more soon as well as new Harvey Birdman and Tom Goes To The Mayor.
Venture Brothers new season starts soon! YAY!!
