5/5 Flap-tastic!!!!
  by J. Ledford (NC USA)
Ever since Flapjack aired on Cartoon Network, I have been an avid watcher.
It is one of the most creative, fun, and continuously interesting cartoons I have seen in a very long time (since Rocko's Modern Life and others from the 90s good cartoon era).

The style and artistic flair that inhabits Flapjack is absolutely great as well. It is visually pleasing and personally I think the color scheme, textured backgrounds, setting composition, character design and execution fits the nautical/pirat-y/adventure theme and haphazard adventures perfectly.

Although this is a nautical themed show, it is NOT like Spongebob. Both shows are clever, fun, and creative, but plot lines, characters, and the overall feel of the show is totally different.

All in all, I highly recommend buying this. Cartoon Network is terrible about marketing and products, so there is no guarantee that when this is gone it will come back and I'm not sure if these will be made into full seasons on dvd, but this is a good price for a volume of great works.

5/5 The Greatest Cartoon

This DVD is great. My only complaint........it is very short. It only contains 5 episodes. For the price, it is not bad. Maybe I just want them all on DVD.

This DVD is well worth the money if you are a fan of this show.

The behind the scenes are also short. They do not go into much depth about the making, voices, and ect.

5/5 Unique, creative, whip-smart and funny
  by The Dawdler (Seattle, WA)
One of the best cartoons on right now. Incredibly creative, bizarre, funny as heck.

I watch this with my 3.5 year old. He loves it. There's tons of slapstick and sight gags. But it's definitely not for every family. It's irreverent, it's got gross-out humor, it's got adult humor - if you're worried about your kid's delicate sensibilities try Sponge Bob. But if you like smart, unique, creative, funny cartoons you will like Flapjack. It's silly - yes - but hilarious.

5/5 Yes, it's awesome

Like the title says. When i first saw previews for this show on cartoon network i was a little sceptical. This is one of the few shows however, which top almost any and is up there with Spongebob. Although I'm sure its some sort of a Spongebob knockoff, the characters are loveable, the plots unpredictable, and sometimes oddy disturbing and surprising. Hopefully it wont get canceled like Invader Zim, because everyone hates to see a good show go. Overall, this cartoon is worth watching of you are one to appreciate a little dark, creepy and odd humor.

5/5 Flapjack is Simply Marvelous!
  by Joel Osuna (Palmdale, CA)
The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack is simply an exceptional cartoon in today's world that is full of poor quality crap that is made for children. I've said it once, and I'll say it again, a good cartoon is one with both underlying complex themes that adults will understand and appreciate AND good quality humor and appeal for children. Flapjack is a prime example of this. In fact it fits into this model so well that this cartoon reminds me of several cartoons from the 1990's golden era such as AAAHH!!! Real Monsters, Rocko's Modern Life, and Ren and Stimpy to name a few.

The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack revolves around a young and impressionable boy named Flapjack who follows his idol, Captain K'nuckles in search of great adventures and the renounced Candied Island. Flapjack and K'nuckles themselves are hilarious and often find themselves in situations raging from the bizarre to the surreal to the uncomfortable and everything in between. Not only that, but the supporting characters are very interesting and provide excellent support throughout the episodes. Characters like the Dock Hag, Peppermint Larry, and Lady Nicklebottoms bring in extra humor and freshness to every episode.

For adults, topics such as poverty, friendship, love, self identity, and addiction (to name just a few) are underlying and hidden throughout The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack. Most kids will not recognize these topics, but will still be highly entertained by the enjoyable and sometimes simple plot that is at the surface. This though, is what makes this cartoon exceptional. Older audiences can appreciate the deeper meaning in the show's context while the younger audience can enjoy the simpler aspect of the show.

For someone that grew up during the golden era of cartoons in the 1990's, I can say that The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack is an awesome cartoon that has already demonstrated a great deal and still has tons of potential. I highly recommend it for kids, teens, and even adults. I will most certainly get this volume of episodes and all future volumes. I give The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack five stars!
