Description
Oh god. This might be the best cartoon ever!
Superjail is made of win.
So... I drew this watching the first season.
This was fun to draw. But in the end i was more tired and gaaahskjfsdg;regserfdgs than satisfied.
Drawn with a black ball pen, i coloured the Warden with water-colour pencils and the rainbow too.
Superjail! (c) Augenblick, Adultswim and so on and on.
Season 2, please.

I've seen every episode, but I just don't understand. Why is this show so popular?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
because it's great and fluid, seemingly careless but hella expressive animation + carefree violence and gore, at least that is what i love about it

Careless violence and gore is popular? But why?

It's still cruel and sadistic.

No it's not, cause it's just a show. It's a little immature to think that just because something is violent it is automatically messed up. If it isn't really happening then it's no big deal. If you can't take it then don't watch it. You obviously cannot handle violence, sometimes violence for violence sake is a huge stress outlet just so you know. It is perfectly healthy and natural to like something that is graphically violent just to be violent. It is not healthy, however, to bottle up all your violent rage inside an never find a natural outlet for it (such as art, or Superjail!) people who do this are kidding themselves, and their violence shows up in the real world in the form of things as innocent as aggression to things as awful as murder.

I agree that people need an outlet for their violence. That's why I think videogames and sports are good for that. However, people spend so much time with media nowadays that it has become like a friend in their lives. Media exerts the same influence so people need to be aware of what it is influencing in them. Now, I don't think anyone will kill after watching this show. I believe people are smarter than that. However, I do believe that watching this show could have a deeper and more perverted influence. It can cause people to see graphic violence as enjoyable and fun. The fact is that if you have an appetite for violence and enjoy seeing it happen then there is definitely something wrong with you and the "media" you spend time with. Sometimes violence is necessary, but here it is only used to be cruel for the sake of getting some cheap laughs. Doesn't anyone see something wrong with that?

violence. Superjail! is a very artistically advanced and funny show in that it strategically uses the violence in an almost flawlessly executed elegant way as a focal point. There is nothing wrong with people enjoying fake violence happening to crooked cartoon characters. There is something wrong if you enjoy mass murder or violence that is real for example the Holocaust or the bombings on Japan. There is also something wrong with denying your basic animalistic instincts to aggression and THAT can cause people to really kill or hurt themselves. The real killers and violent people aren't the people who watch Superjail! and find it funny. he real killers are people who deny their aggression and bottle their anger up inside. These are the people who nearly ALWAYS lash out.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I agree with you that the real killers are the ones denying their anger, but I just can't accept how cruel this show is. You don't know the criminals. Criminals or not, they are still people. Maybe they have had a rough life and need to be understood instead of murdered. Human life is treated with no respect here and that I can't abide. The show doesn't take the nature of evil seriously. Murder is meant to be taken as a joke. The warden and his companions deserve to die as much as the criminals he is punishing. Looney Tunes is different because the characters don't stay hurt and they usually only act violently in self-defense which is okay. The criminals on the other hand may be violent people who deserve what they get but it's not right to treat them this way. They are still God's people and need to be treated better.

First of all you are acting like these are real people getting hurt. They aren't. They are made up entirely for the amusement of the viewer. How naive and immature can you be to imagine that these people don't deserve what they get because they have had rough lives? They didn't have rough lives. If they did Christy Caracas and the other writers would've written about it. There are only 2 characters it's ever hinted at having rough lives: Jack Knife and The Warden. 2ndly the prisoners like in Looney Tunes or Tom and Jerry always in fact do end up being perfectly fine in the next episode as if nothing happened at all. As for the characters acting in self defense thing who do you think is acting in self defense, Tom or Jerry? Yeah sure Tom is trying to eat Jerry BUT he's a cat. It's what they do. Tom is the one that gets the living crap beaten out of him EVERY episode and all he's trying to do is his job, kill the disease spreading mouse that is loose in his house. Now we move onto your whole argument that The Warden deserves to be hurt/die as much as the prisoners. When have you ever watched an episode of Tom and Jerry where Tom eats Jerry? Have you ever scene a Looney Tunes episode where Elmer Fudd shoots and cooks up Bugs Bunny in rabbit season, or Daffy Duck in duck season? Has Sylvester ever devoured Tweety? Has Wile E. Coyote EVER caught the damn Road Runner? The answer to all of these is: no. The Warden and his companions are untouchable much like Jerry, Bugs, Daffy, Tweety, and Road Runner. They CANNOT die. It is one of the great rules of classic cartoons: you can NEVER let the trickster be killed. The prisoners are not "God's people" they aren't even REAL people to begin with. They are characters in a tv show, one that you seem to be taking more seriously then it's loyal viewers. By the way I am extremely offended that you compared enjoying the violence in this show to enjoy the Holocaust. That is inappropriate in EVERY way. The Holocaust was a great tragedy that many innocent people lost their lives in. Superjail! is just a tv show. Being a gypsy who probably lost members of my ancestry to the Holocaust I am very offended by this extremely ignorant statement.

I am offended that they are expecting us to laugh at cruelty like this in the first place. Look, I'm sorry that I offended you but that's how I feel about this show. I just prefer to never turn off my moral compass whatever I'm watching. That is exactly what is required to watch it. I can't do that. I am obviously getting nowhere with you because you refuse to consider what I am saying for even a minute because of your emotions. That's immature. Look, I think everyone should have the same standards with TV as in real life. I am obviously a minority in this but that's the way it should be. If you are going to continue to calm me immature for what I think, leave me alone please.

This is the last message I will send you. Being called immature or naive is not necessarily an insult. Sometimes it is directed at a person when they are actually being immature or naive and you are. I am not insulting you I am simply stating what I believe your behavior is. You are also acting rather pious, implying that people who watch these shows are being negatively affected or find violence humorous. We don't. If you were being beaten to a pulp on the street Superjail! style, I wouldn't sit there and laugh. I would probably be terrified and probably do what was in my power to help you. I have considered what you are saying. I just find it to be immature and foolish, and I am not saying this to be mean, I am just saying it to be honest. To a person who watches this show and has basic knowledge of how TV works you sound foolish. Obviously you like Pokemon. PETA finds it to be animal cruelty and encouraging of animal fighting. Does it? You must've watched the show at one point or another did you then think that seeing to dogs fight on the street in real life was cool or badass looking? If you are a normal sane person then, no you do not. People have a right to watch whatever it is they want to watch and you have a right to voice your opinion about it, no matter how frivolous it may be. You don't however have a right to compare the imaginary cartoon prisoners to the suffering of real life people. That is insulting and only makes you look foolish. NEVER compare anything to the Holocaust especially if it's a cartoon meant to make people laugh it is a terrifyingly ignorant thing to do. That would be like if I said "why do people like Pokemon? It's just like what Michael Vick did with those dogs isn't it?" Does that not sound a little stupid to you? Multiply that by a thousand and that's how you sounded when you said Superjail! fans find stuff that resembles the Holocaust funny. I say you are immature because, with all do respect, on this subject you are. You cannot seem to understand the disconnect between TV violent humour an people being graphically hurt in real life, a difference I, the average Superjail! viewer completely understand. I am not letting my emotions about the show get in the way. If anything my emotions are of someone who is dumbfounded by a fact that people (like yourself) think that violent programming causes desensitization of people, or makes them find violence amusing. It doesn't. I don't find real violence amusing and neither do most people who watch violent programming. What are we all supposed to do, sit around and watch VeggieTales till our skulls are numb? I don't think so. I will watch what I want and I don't care how violent it is (so long as it's not real) if I like it I will watch it. These shows will continue to come out because people will continue to watch them and make them and that's just freedom of speech puddin'

I don't think there should be a disconnect between television and real life. Television influences you anyway. It should just influence for the better. We can watch other things that are morally good and well-written. I don't like pokemon anymore for the very reasons you just mentioned. I'm not immature. I think my comparison was extreme but not wrong. Veggie Tales makes you think more than this show ever will. Despite its "good intentions," "Superjail" and other shows like it are the ones that will make your brain go numb because Ray Bradbury might put it, this is the type of media that "rapes (reality) and leaves it for the flies." You have the right to watch it. I'm just saying it's no good. There is plenty of evidence out there to suggest that violence on TV influences desensitization to violence in real life. I think that this show does have a negative effect on people. It desensitizes to violence and it insults people who have beliefs like I do. How can you expect me not to be offended? I hope one day you really understand not just me but the reality of this world and the other world.

Ray Bradbury loved tv. Specifically horror movies. He even wrote a few episodes of the Twilight Zone and had his own tv show The Ray Bradbury Theatre. You obviously didn't know he was talking about REALITY tv. Don't try and school someone on Ray Bradbury that knows basically EVERYTHING about Ray Bradbury. You are the one who doesn't understand the reality of this world. TV can be a great thing IF there is a disconnect. If there is no disconnect between fantasy and reality then you end up with a bunch of crazy people running around imitating crap they saw on television. If there is no disconnect people who watch it will be INSANE. There have been studies done that if you watch tv that is appropriate for your age you will be fine. Show Superjail! to a 5 year old they might not be able to handle it. VeggieTales shouldn't be shown to children it is a mind controlling show indoctrinating them into an imaginary belief system of which they may never grow out of. If you stopped watching Pokemon because you suddenly started thinking it made animal fighting seem ok than you are very naive indeed, which is not necessarily a bad thing if you are under the age of 12, but if your older than that and you feel that way you are indeed childish. I hope one day you grow to learn the HUGE difference between comedy and reality and between tv and real-life because while in this world people like you exist, you are right. Television will be a dangerous thing. For you and those like you who take it too seriously.

There is nothing wrong with Christians standing up for their beliefs and creating media that reflects it. There is nothing wrong with telling children that God loves them. There is nothing wrong with me standing up for what I believe either. I am not going to bend because someone wants me to. Stop calling me naive. I have seen life. I have thought a lot about what I believe. Calling me naive upsets me and makes me unable to think clearly. I will stand up for what is right. You are not going to change my mind. Have you ever wanted to know what truth is? Have you ever wanted to be challenged for the better? Or do you just want to verbally beat down anyone who doesn't agree with you? I am thinking seriously about whether to watch something or not. Is it just violent or does it like South Park have a reason for being so? Is it dark for the sake of being mean-spirited or is it dark for the sake of making you think like The Twilight Zone? I want to watch something that is entertaining and has solid moral values and makes you think or at least is harmless. This show is none of these things. It could have been, but tragically, it is not. If you want to know the truth from my perspective then give me respect and stop calling me naive. Ask me questions to try to understand me. We could get along. We could disagree without hating. I don't like Ronald Reagan but I can still talk to my hard core Republican friend. She doesn't agree with me but she understands how I feel. Why can't we? I just hate this show. You know why and you are not going to change my mind about it. That doesn't make me naive. Tolerance is not verbally beating down someone who doesn't think everyone who doesn't go with what rest of society believes. Tolerance is respecting somebody's right to disagree with you. You don't think they're right, but you don't put them down for it. I don't agree with my parents but I still love them and respect them. Why can't you respect how I feel and move on with your life? On another note, Superjail has the right to exist. Therefore, so does VeggieTales.

won't give things a chance*

I do. I did with Superjail. I have watched the first two seasons. I have discovered that I was too judgemental about some things that are now either my favorites or want to check out. I love "Avatar: the Last Airbender," "The Big Bang Theory," and "Courage the Cowardly Dog." I also want to get into "the Simpsons" and "South Park." I now have a policy of giving everything a chance. I did so with "Superjail!" and I just found too much bad in it. Everything has bad in it, but my policy is that I will watch it if the bad is there for a reason to make a point like in "Sweeney Todd" or "Les Miserables" or if the good outnumbers the bad. If the bad is there just to make people laugh at a perverted joke like in "Family Guy," then it is no good to me.

It is an art movement called surrealism love. Have you never seen a Dahli painting? That is what Superjail! is doing. That is the point of some of the violent or surreal scenes. They even refer to some of his paintings in the show. Superjail's expression of violence isn't being mean spirited and isn't trying to hurt your feelings and neither am I. You just won't except any explanations I give. I respect your opinion, I don't think you respect mine, because you look a the show as senseless violence and that's not all it is. It is creative and artistic. I never said VeggiTales doesn't have a right to exist. It does. I just said it shouldn't be shown to young children, unless we're going to show them cartoons representing every denomination and those written by people with none at all, for example: Little Bear which was widely protested after it was discovered the writer Maurice Sendak was a gay atheist. Children should be informed of all faiths before they make a decision and settle on just one. I get along with people who have a broad view-point and you seem narrow-minded, you want give things a chance that seem "morally" wrong to you no matter how unreal and made up they are. You even said you stopped watching Pokemon because it to closely resembles animal fighting. I do respect your opinion. I greatly disagree with it. I wish you would listen and respect mine.

I didn't really stop watching Pokemon for that reason. I stopped watching it because I outgrew it. As for "Superjail," I just couldn't agree with you because I couldn't see a reason for the violence besides getting some cheap laughs. I do like the art though. It is like the art from "Yellow Submarine," one of my favorite films of all time. I didn't know that it was supposed to represent surrealism love. I just don't see how violence like that can be seen as an art. I love how psychedelic the backgrounds always look. I just don't see a reason for that much violence to be there.

I don't even laugh at the violence in Superjail! I just laugh at some of the actual jokes the characters make. I find the violence strategic and interesting and I like the way it mirrors classic cartoons. The art style is actually inspired by Yellow Submarine and Dr. Seuss, which is another thing I love about it. I hate Family Guy. Not because it is perverted I don't mind perverted humor, I do mind stupid humor, which is all that Family Guy seems to offer. The Simpsons is a classic and will always be impressive to me. South Park is one of my favorite satires. I don't think the writers are trying to be funny with the violence in Superjail! I think they are trying to be creative. You might like season 3 there wasn't much violence in that one. It was mostly character based.

When they focus on the situations between the characters and how they relate to each other, the show is actually much better. They can be funny and endearing when they want to be. The violence was the real turn off. It just felt like violence porn. It was just there to entertain and I couldn't stand that. There is a scene in Farenheit 451 when Mildred Montag is with her friends watching a TV show that consists of clowns cutting each other to pieces. That is what this show's violence reminds me of. I don't want to see that.

For one thing that scene was live action and was meant to be humourous for that society. I don't think the violence in Superjail! is meant to be humourous and I believe most of the fans don't either. It is meant to be more therapeutic and artistic then funny. Most people don't laugh at the violence in Superjail! Most people laugh at the situations the characters get themselves into and not the violence. There is actually a lot of psychology between the main cast when you pay attention to the show. Like how the Warden loves animals because when he was a child his father made him kill a guard puppy for bonding with it. His father explained that the puppy would be useless as a guard dog because the Warden had taught it love. Or how the Warden bonds with Jailbot because he finds it difficult to make friends with humans. He was brought up to never know friendship. He also didn't have much of a childhood which is why he loves to be the center of attention, watches cartoons, and has tons of childish toys and plays pranks; he seems to be making up for lost time. Jared is also interesting, he has an extremely addictive personality and can become addicted to nearly anything that you or I would find addicting. From fast food to gambling to alcohol, Jared will probably develop an addiction to it fast. Alice puts up a front as being very tough and powerful do to her insecurities about really being a man. It really is quite an interesting show and the characters can seem very endearing at times. Violence just doesn't bother me, so long as it's not real. Even live action horror movie violence doesn't get to me. It's like nudity or a sex scene in a movie. If you've seen it once you've seen it a thousand times and nothing much changes. That's what I like about Superjail! It does it different in a more trance-like psychedelic sorta way. Only a couple of the violent scenes make me laugh and that's because of character quotes/the situation. Like when all the lunch ladies fight the prisoners who have been made to dress as bunnies and wolves because of the Warden. Eventually the lunch ladies bad food rises up and attacks (I know you've thought at least once that your school food was so bad it could crawl right off of your plate.) Sometimes violence CAN be funny. If it's not real. Like I said earlier, violence on tv has only really desensitized me to violence on tv, not real violence and if I saw someone or something beating you down on the street Superjail! style I wouldn't find it funny and I would try and help you out, because real people getting hurt isn't funny to me, or most people, no matter what they watch.

I think you're right about the characters. I just still don't like the violence. I guess we can just agree to disagree.

(who gets blown up in nearly every episode he's in in some way or another) and Wile E. Coyote (don't even get me started on the crap he goes through). If you remove the blood from Superjail! it just becomes a modern version of these classic cartoons. Then we go to your videogames argument. I agree videogames are a great outlet for violence. But if you believe Superjail desensitizes people to violence, then exactly what videogames are you playing? There are PLENTY of games out there just as violent, if not more violent then Superjail! Try Kagero 2 Dark Illusions (Trapt) on for size: www.youtube.com/watch?v=FIBxwL… The whole point of the game is killing people in the most violent ways possible. It earns you more points that way. It is an undeniably addicting game and is a great way to let off steam. It is JUST as violent as Superjail! and involves you the player in the cont.

A tv show will NEVER cause anyone to find violence in real life funny. It just won't. And if it does there was something wrong with that person to begin with. I have been watching Looney Tunes and Tom and Jerry since I was a little kid (both by the way are huge inspirations on this shows violent humor) and I am not a violent person at all. Superjail's violence is just a more adult version of Looney Tunes. You can deny this statement if you want to but when it comes down to it, it is exactly the same thing. Superjail puts people you have NO sympathy for (the prisoners) in bloody, gruesome, violent, deadly situations. Looney Tunes and Tom and Jerry did the same thing with the predatory characters on the show, character's like: Tom (who gets sliced up by fences, bludgeoned by any number of blunt objects, shot in the foot, has part of his tale chopped off, and mauled by a dog.) Elmer Fudd cont.

With Looney Tunes, the characters had stuff happen to them but they were always fine in the next scene. The other characters were also acting in self-defense. Here, it just happens to be sadistically cruel.
