Squidbillies

about

Squidbillies is an animated television series produced by Williams Street Studios for the Adult Swim programming block of Cartoon Network. It was created by Matt Maiellaro and Pete Smith and is written by Dave Willis, of Aqua Teen Hunger Force fame, and Jim Fortier, previously of The Brak Show, both of whom worked on Space Ghost Coast to Coast.[1] The animation is done by Craig Hartin of Radical Axis, with background design by Ben Prisk. It revolves around a family of anthropomorphic hillbilly squids—The Cuyler family—that live in indigence in the North Georgia Appalachian mountains. Squidbillies follows the exploits of the Cuyler family and their interactions with the local populace, which usually results in a fair amount of destruction, mutilation, and death. Themes include the family's overt racism against white people (Chalkies), Early's dalliances with Krystal, their sketchy friendship with the Sheriff, run-ins with celebrities, their crushing poverty, and the machinations of Dan Halen. The series has very little continuity: storyline progression and character development are present to an extent, but characters frequently die and return unharmed — often without explanation, and sometimes in the very same episode, forcing viewers to suspend their disbelief.
