I made a sandwich today with some real spicy horseradish, but what I really had a craving for was some Dog Penis Medicine. Just can't find that stuff anymore

 The amount of facets that they go through of Todd's terribleness continue to amuse and amaze me. The worthlessness of Todd is a fractal.

Todd messing up his taxes so bad he nearly got lethal injection is still pretty much the funniest thing I've ever read.

I'm trying to find the Achewood where Onstad says something to the effect of "I always like to make sure people's authority is a real thing" or something. One of those perfect gems like the "being in trouble is a fake idea" thing that has stuck with me for years.

Is this the one? "I'm careful in life to make sure that power is actual." http://www.achewood.com/index.php?date=01152010

Heyyyyy, found it online Looks like it was also included in one of the print collections of Dark Horse's online stuff. The description for Volume 4 says there's Achewood content in there as well.

Hahaha, Téodor can never play off Ray's playful assholeness. He needs to act more like a knucklehead from old times to handle him. Beef knows you got to beat Ray into submission once in a while by reminding him of his Poor Lifestyle Choices.

Presumably someone in a focus group said a mean thing about his voice acting and now he's weeping into a stuffed animal under a depression lamp. I hope to be wrong.

As a hardcore Achewood connoisseur since old times and a quasi lurker who considers you guys a cadre of internet bros, the TV show absolutely shouldn't happen. I felt a pit of disgust when one of the guys pretended to be pregnant in the trailer and it turned out to be a gift for Philippe. In the comics it would have been a mediocre joke, exactly deserving of the two seconds of eye flicking it would take to travel between panels. Curing Ray of heights was funny, conceding to Bush's presidency for Mickey Mouse was funny and both of those demanded about 10 seconds of my time. In that trailer it took me just as much time to 100% realize Philippe was getting a present while I sat there and watched the droll theatrics painfully transpire. It was a humorless burden. An Achewood TV series would end just as poorly as Dilbert, but perhaps even faster. The show would be propped up by a temporary scaffolding of fans until they abandon the show steadily in tiers, from tepid readers to the relentless fanatics. This thread itself contains those much closer to the latter, and even we weren't enchanted by the show. I'm not going to be surprised if potential investors picked up on that and figured penny stocks were a better option. I am sorry, my brothers.

Roast Beef pretending to be pregnant so they could give a gift to Phillipe was a great joke when it was a strip.

The issue with the teaser reel is that Onstad doesn't really understand which aspects of the strip can be translated to a temporal medium and which will require tweaking. If he got the right team working on it, though -- people who have the same subtle sense of humor and are also animation pros (Loren Bouchard & co. come to mind) -- I think an Achewood cartoon could work really well.

Perhaps you worded this awkwardly, so forgive me if this isn't a surprise, but you do realize the "Beef gives birth to a board game" gag was from an actual strip, right?. I agree with both of you guys that the demo reels we saw didn't perfectly translate the comic gags to animation, nor did they select the best ones from the strip, but the one original gag ("Scones") gives me hope

I liked the TV pitch a lot! But the stuff in there that works better in print works better, I think, mostly because Onstad and whoever else just isn't used to working in animation as a medium. If the show gets picked up (fingers crossed until my bones are broken an my hands are rendered useless and gross) then I can only imagine it'll get better as everyone gets used to it and finds a nice groove.

I can see Achewood being at most an 11-minute show like Metalocalypse, or if it doesn't make it off the computer, a 5-minute online deal like Bravest Warriors. I too thought "Scones" was hilarious and have already referred to them as "what a teacher or prisoner would eat" in public.
