Assy McGee was an animated television series that aired on Adult Swim from 2006 to 2008. The show was created by Carl W. Adams and H. Jon Benjamin, and it starred H. Jon Benjamin as the titular character, Assy McGee. The show was known for its unique animation style and its irreverent sense of humor. Assy McGee was a police detective in a fictional city called Exeter. The show's humor came from McGee's unconventional methods of solving crimes, which often involved excessive violence, crude language, and heavy drinking. Despite his unorthodox approach, McGee was still a respected member of the police force, and he was often called upon to solve the city's most difficult cases. One of the defining features of Assy McGee was its animation style. The show used a technique called pixelation, which involved filming live actors and then animating over them using a computer. The result was a unique visual style that had the look of an early video game. This style was used to great effect in the show's action sequences, which were often over-the-top and full of exaggerated violence. The show's voice cast was also a highlight. In addition to H. Jon Benjamin's signature deadpan delivery as Assy McGee, the show featured a number of talented comedians in supporting roles. Jon Glaser played McGee's partner, Don Sanchez, while Patrice O'Neal and Larry Murphy played a variety of other characters throughout the series. Despite its irreverent humor and unique animation style, Assy McGee only lasted for two seasons on Adult Swim. The show was canceled in 2008, but it has since gained a cult following among fans of the network. Many of the show's fans appreciate its subversive sense of humor and its willingness to push the boundaries of what is considered acceptable for television. Overall, Assy McGee was a unique and memorable addition to the Adult Swim lineup. Its combination of pixelated animation, irreverent humor, and exaggerated action made it a standout show during its brief run. While it may not have been for everyone, those who appreciated its unconventional approach to storytelling were sure to find something to enjoy in each episode.
