    Base my review from what I've seen in the first season, I must say I'm looking forward to the new season 2. I really enjoy this quirky little show, it really make a great time pass though not something I would look forward to in a week but it is still fun to watch.Synopsis: Like the metaphor on the ugly side of the New Yorker.I'm not sure how long they can carry on with this show but for now I think the show is new to watch (something that not very cliché) and with each episode despite all the entertainment you will get, you also got a lesson or two on the City Life. Plus you will never guess what going to happen next since everything is almost out of the blue. Most of the time this doesn't work but this time it is acceptable. The fast pace moving story add to the goodness of the series.I also like the style of the cartoon and its vibrant colours. The drawing is weird but alright, I like it. And the voice does match well with the characters.Overall try to watch pass couple of episode and if you still don't like it then you won't like it, but if you like it you will enjoy the rest of the season. Get some episodes to used to the show.Recommendation: Yes, It was fun.Rating: 7/10 (Grade: B-)

    This is my new favorite show on television and is a real breath of fresh air into the adult animation genre. I have a really morbid sense of humor and this show fits it perfectly! The basic premises of the show is to take New York City and throw in every monster that anyone, anywhere has thought of and see what happens as they interact with the humans in the city. Demons are middle management in the New York City bureaucracy and Japanese businessmen bought out hell from the devil due to his poor investments! Or take the main character and his girlfriend, Callie Maggetbone. Mark is a truly nice guy whereas Callie is a half human/half devil succubus who enjoys death and destruction. Their relationship swings from the two of them dating to Callie attempting to suck his soul out and kill him. The entire show is laced with this type of dry, ironic humor. There are very few simple jokes in the show, rather it relies on the entire episode as one entire extended joke. If your looking for a show that relies on cheap simple jokes keep looking, but if your like me and enjoy extended jokes and have an offbeat sense of humor this is the show for you!

    "Ugly Americans" is smart, funny, and exceptionally well drawn. The characters are imaginative, and the dialog is very unique.Mark Lilly is a bleeding-heart liberal, determined to make a difference. Everything he does is well-intentioned, but almost completely ineffective. He reminds all men, I'm sure, of the woman who was dangerously crazy, but knew how to keep a guy around with good sex.Randall is the hilarious zombie roommate. He has held up better than other zombies on the show by paying for skin grafts. His one dead eye is permanently out of service, though.Callie, the half-demon boss and girlfriend of Mark, is incredibly hot! She's drawn and voiced well, and even her movements are sexy. Think Leela from "Futurama" with two eyes. She sheds her skin, and looks ten years younger. What man, or woman for that matter, wouldn't like to see that feature in a mate.Leonard, Mark's wizard co-worker, could wave his wand and fix all the trouble in the world. Something, however, has made him very unambitious. Maybe it's the constant flow of magically conjured super-alcohol he drinks, or maybe it's the fact he had VD for 300 years.So far, after 6 episodes, the show is staying fresh and funny. Let's hope the writers don't run out of ideas.

    The show's pilot episode was a strong one , and the next one didn't disappoint either.There don't seem to be any redundant characters so far , and nobody's voice is particularly annoying (a trait often found in other shows).The plots are great and the characters are unique - each with his/her own agenda. It's a bit too early to see if there's any continuity , but that most likely won't be a problem with this show.The animation style is more then pleasant - nothing overly exaggerated or displeasing.Yes it's an adult cartoon , but to each his own. I believe Ugly Americans fits it's time slot well.
