With the possible exception of Assy McGee, I don't think any WS original comedy has ever attracted the kind of controversy of these two shows.

But; which one of these shows do you like best?

My Choice: Squidbillies. It's nice that AS would take a chance and air something as depraved as Ozmo and all, but Squidbillies was less abstract and easier to get into. Plus can you really hate a show where Dana Snyder and Todd Hanson voice major characters?

Have to go with Squidbillies, more coherent, at some points pretty funny. Though the next season should have less "Dan Halen doing something that affects the squids" episodes.

Dana Snyder was also the asian guy on Minoriteam, BTW.

12 Oz Mouse was just badly animated randomness. There was suppose to be some sort of plot but if you wanted to really see it you'd have to try caring about the characters which I personally just found impossible. Next to the Live action shows it's probably the worst AS Original, while Squidbillies is actually quite enjoyable. There are some episodes that can even sort of rival Aqua Teen and though the designs are crude you can tell they're at least trying with the animation and trying to actually showcase decent character interactiosn something I could never picture happening on 12 Oz Mosue which I"m glad is gone.

Squidbillies. With Squidbillies, everything is better drawn, and at least the acting is better than ozmo. That's what turned me off the most to ozmo, the art was crap. If it was any good, then I would be a fan of it.

I like Squidbilles in a "ha ha funny" kind of way, and Ozmo in a "what will happen next?" kind of way.

OzMo was great and although I feel as though Squidbillies took the torch from ATHF, OzMo is just an awesome [as] original that had charm in it's anti-coherence which no other [as] show could replicate.

I voted for 12 oz Mouse.

I've only seen the first season of both of these shows, but Squidbillies just frusterates me with what awful people, sorry, squids, all the characters are. 12 oz Mouse was okay. Not particularly funny a lot of the time, but watchable.

As much as Squidbillies is not remotely funny at all, at least it's pretty to watch. 12 oz. Mouse is not..

If I were stuck on an island and all I had to do was either watch squidbillies or 12 oz mouse...

crap I'd do something else...

I can't make a choice because these shows are just that terrible.

Oh Man.
I totally voted for 12 oz mouse.
Only recently have I started watching Squidbillies. I saw it once when it debuted and wasn't a big fan.
12oz mouse, I had to watch season 1 about 3 times in total before I had any idea what the heck was going on, and before I'd let myself move onto season 2.
If you can really get into it (and I recommend some ...uh...herbal help haha) it is actually quite an interesting story with some bizarre twists and multiple plot lines!
I know a lot of you think i'm mental, but I now show it to all my friends who haven't seen it, and they go away wanting to find a copy for themselves.
Squidbillies, on the other hand...it's entertaining, but I seldom laugh. I just put it on more as background noise.
(C'mon who doesn't like the stoned cop in 12 oz mouse? Or Rooster with his ever flowing hair. haha. "Sir, you can't park here. Sir? Sir." Funny.):anime:

Squids for me. Favorite episode: "The Okaleechee Dam Jam"

OZMO was just awful. I could look past the cheap animation if I found any part of the story interesting, which I didn't.
[as] promoted the hell out of OZMO and it still crashed and burned.

For all of its faults, Squidbillies had something 12 oz. Mouse did not:

A coherent story.
Somewhat interesting characters.
Animation that doesn't appear to be done by third graders.

Therefore, in choosing between a turd and a [feminine hygiene product], I choose the turd.

I would have to vote for squidbillies since it actually made me laugh.

Niether show is very good, but of the two, Squidbillies is the better one. It actually has some laughs in it, consistent characterization and relatively coherent episodes. Mouse supposedly had this complex wheels-within-wheels consipracy plotline underlying it, but I never got it. To me, it just appeared to be random incidents played out by badly-drawn characters. As a fan of Gundam series, I'm well able to follow complex, wheels-within-wheels consipiracy plotlines, but Mouse just threw me off. (^_*)
