Squidbillies arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. Squidbillies does what great comedies rarely manage — it is actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. Squidbillies is an animated television series about the Cuylers, an impoverished family of anthropomorphic hillbilly mud squids living in the Appalachian region of Georgia's mountains. The show is produced by Williams Street Studios for the Adult Swim programming block of Cartoon Network and premiered on October 16, 2005. It is written by Dave Willis, co-creator of Aqua Teen Hunger Force, and Jim Fortier, previously of The Brak Show, both of whom worked on the Adult Swim series Space Ghost Coast to Coast. Between them, Tracy Morgan and Dana Snyder carry the comedy without ever forcing it. 13 seasons (2005–2021) gave the story room most shows never get. The timing in Squidbillies is precise enough that even the throwaway lines land on a second watch. It delivers reliably on what it promises, which is more than most of its competition manages.

If you need a comedy that actually makes you laugh, Squidbillies is a strong candidate. The tonal similarities to Robot Chicken are real, though Squidbillies carves out its own identity quickly. 13 seasons in, there is no shortage of material once you get started. Tracy Morgan's comic timing carries it through its weaker moments. The kind of comedy you recommend to someone who claims they do not watch much.

Squidbillies wrapped up in 2021, created by Jim Fortier, Matt Maiellaro and Dave Willis — and 13 seasons are available to watch from start to finish.
