    Anyone got into this yet?

    Not on tv here yet, it's on the Cartoon Network (Adult Swim) in the States.

    Basically a satire on hip-hop culture and America in general, done in anime style. Pretty edgy but hilarious.

    Worth checking out some clips on youtube.

    Yeah, I watched it last year. Top notch stuff.
    Track down the original comic strip if you can, there's collected editions on amazon. The comics are much more topical and relevant than the series (think South Park) which means some of the humour is a little dated, or only really funny to those with an in depth knowledge of the American political system.
    Huey and Riley are great characters. New series due in June, can't wait.
    The official site has some gifs from the opening credits, I use these are the screen saver on my mobile!

    I really like it. I know of no one else who has even heard of it, except for one who hates it.
