I don't get Aqua Teen Hunger Force
I like the other Adult Swim cartoons, and I love Bpace Ghost CtoC, but ATHF loses me.

2. probably because you are trying to make sense of it.

Don't.

Nothing makes sense. Dr. Weird has nothing to do with anything. They don't fight crime. They don't battle aliens. They do blow stuff up, but only because it's fun. The food guys don't really do anything.

It's Carl. Carl is the reason the show is funny. Stick with Carl, and you'll get it.

3. I like Shake, actually.

The Carl/Shake combo is funny.

And No2W2004 is right. The fact that it makes no sense is what makes it funny.

4. Maybe that's why this show was weird then
No Carl
I do admit, the manic-depressive doll was somewhat funny.

5. Just let your mind at ease and laugh at the funny parts.

It's not a show that you're supposed to think about. I kinda made that mistake when I first watched it. You just have to laugh at the funny parts, and that's it.

You also have to pay close attention too, because there's a lot of funny parts wedged into the plots.
